How the bloody hell did my bride end up like this? II

Cameron's breath hitched as he hung his head low. He could sense the ominous air thicken.

"I didn't tell you, your highness, because I thought it's not important. The sixth prince only visited us just like what he did annually." Cameron explained his side of the story.

It was true, though. Every year, the Earl of Monarey from the North would visit the Crawfords' manor. That was to check on them as an order from the king.

Therefore, he didn't mention it to Samael. The sixth prince did nothing unusual. He still mocked them and held a feast during his two-day stay.

There was nothing new.

"Alistair, huh?" Samael murmured, leaning his back against the high-backed chair.

Instinctively, Cameron peeked at Samael. The latter was rubbing his lower lip with his finger as a smirk resurfaced on his lips.

Cameron gulped down again as he looked away. The Crawford had avoided getting involved in the La Crox's internal feud.
