You only have one chance

"You—you are already betrothed to be married to her?" The princess had asked the crown prince on the verge of tears. 

'She had betrayed her father and country for him because he promised she would be his only woman, his only queen, but he was betrothed to someone else already. Then what about her?" 

"If she said it and is not laughing afterward, it could only mean she is not joking," the crown prince said indifferently. 

"The head maid would show you to your room," he added and walked away, with Evelyn following after him. 

"What did you get for me?" Evelyn's playful voice asked him as they walked away without paying her any attention. 

Princess Luciana didn't know what came over her; she couldn't understand what was going on and hurriedly ran after him. 

"You…Your Highness, don't you think you should explain to me..."

"I'm tired, princess; I'd rather we talk tomorrow," he snapped, cutting her off.
