Chapter 35

A week later…

Keyller plucked up his courage and prepared himself to be roasted before leaving his room after fixing his mind to meet the woman he ignored and broke her heart. Well, that’s what he thought. He had been staying in the palace since they arrived from Ireland. He hadn’t had the chance to see Freesha yet. Kresshna imprisoned her in the palace’s dungeon and tortured her every day until her father woke up. Unfortunately, the Royal Highness is still unconscious and lying on his bed vegetatively, so Freesha will be tortured until then. The royal doctors attending to him assured the Countess that he would gain consciousness soon.

If the Royal Highness was poisoned by Freesha, then, Keyller could only think that the poison Freesha used was fatal, which made the ruler of the palace lie in bed for so long.
