Chapter 226
At that moment, Tyler straightened his back and spoke with a calm, steady voice, “With all due respect, it’s not that I don’t like the throne. I mean, who in their right mind would reject such an incredible opportunity? That’s not even the issue here. The throne it’s powerful, it’s meaningful, and I do admire it. And yes,” he added with a slight smile, “the princesses are breathtaking, both of them. Any man would be honored.”He paused briefly, taking a slow breath, then looked the king in the eye.“But I also know myself,” he continued, “and I know that I’m not someone who wants to be confined at least not yet. I love adventure. I love moving, learning, seeing the world, discovering who I am outside these walls. There are still things I want to do, places I want to reach, heights I haven’t climbed. I don’t want to feel caged, even if the cage is made of gold and lined with velvet.”His words echoed through the chamber with raw honesty.“Being here, tied to the throne, would mean I mi
Chapter 225
At that moment, the king leaned forward just a little, resting both hands on the carved arms of his throne, his gaze fixed steadily on Tyler. There was no arrogance in his voice, no distance in the way he spoke. It was calm, respectful, and surprisingly familiar. He then said.“I don’t see you as someone who’s undeserving anymore. I don’t see you as someone from outside these walls who needs to prove himself over and over. Tyler, you’ve shown more than enough. I see you now as a man of honor, of reputation, and of integrity. You carry yourself like someone who has known both pain and strength, someone who understands responsibility and that, that is rare.”He paused for a second, letting his words sink in.“I see someone with caliber, with potential that stretches far beyond what you might even realize. Someone I believe the future of this kingdom this throne can be safe with. I know I can trust the safety of our people, our crown, and the future of this land in your hands. That is no

At that moment, upon hearing what Nathaniel Jr. just said, Mr. Nathaniel leaned back slowly in his seat, folding his arms and narrowing his eyes as he thought deeply. There was a brief silence in the room, thick with tension and unspoken thoughts. He then slowly nodded and said in a calm but calculating voice, “We don’t know this plan very well. That’s true. And I already said it before we’re not going to approach this like we did with the rat anymore. That method won’t work this time. But…” he trailed off, his voice tightening slightly as he glanced at the closed curtains across the room.“…To get rid of them completely quietly requires discretion. Measures that leave no trace, no suspicion, and no loose ends.”Nathaniel Jr. remained silent, watching his father speak, trying to keep up with the depth of his tone.Mr. Nathaniel continued, “If we’re truly going to secure that full summit if we want complete control over it then your role is very simple but very critical. You must talk

At that moment, hearing what her son had said, Mrs. Nathaniel who hadn’t known the full details before took a deep breath, placed both hands on her waist, and nodded slowly with a mixture of hope and anxiety. Her voice was low but firm as she said,“Alright then, if this is the angle we’re going with, then you must play your part properly, Nathaniel. I mean everything. From your words, your tone, your presence let them all carry weight. You must be deliberate. Convince Princess Naomi. Bind her thoughts to yours. Make her see reason, make her doubt this entire process. Make her believe that that boy is not ready, that he mustn’t be chosen. You understand me?”She stepped closer to him, locking eyes.“Tomorrow’s selection must not hold. That’s what you’re going there to make happen, right?”Nathaniel Jr. gave a slow nod.“Yes. Exactly, Mother. That’s the goal. Delay the selection. Break the momentum. If we win time, we’ll win everything.”His tone was calm but full of pressure. The stak

At that moment, upon hearing what Nathaniel Jr. just said, Mr. Nathaniel slowly lifted his gaze and fixed it on his son. His expression didn’t change much he was still worn out, exhausted by what had just happened but there was now a faint trace of interest in his eyes. He didn’t say a word immediately. Then he tilted his head slightly and asked with a deep, heavy voice,“So… what is your plan?”Mrs. Nathaniel also turned, arms still folded tightly across her chest.“Yes, what do you have in mind?” she added.Her tone wasn’t warm. In fact, it carried more suspicion than hope, but she was desperate enough to listen.“Do you have anything anything at all that can stop this event from going on as planned?”Nathaniel Jr. took a breath and stepped forward, trying to appear more confident than he actually felt.“Yes. I do,” he said slowly.“There’s one person… Yafali.”That name immediately sparked recognition.Mr. Nathaniel furrowed his brows.“Yafali?”Mrs. Nathaniel raised a brow.“What
Chapter 221
Silence, it was a long, dreadful silence.Nathaniel Jr.’s eyes were wide with rage. His entire body was trembling, his lips twitching from the shock and disbelief. He suddenly took a step forward, pointing at Mr. Brand furiously.“You crazy bastard!!” he roared, his voice echoing through the room.“How dare you say such words to my family?!”He stormed closer, veins bulging in his neck.“Tell me you’re joking! Tell me this is some sort of sick joke! You think this is funny?! That you’d come here, like this, beaten, crawling, and you dare to speak his words like some message boy?!”His chest was heaving now, fists shaking.“Talk to me, damn it!” he shouted, towering over Mr. Brown.“Talk to me!! Say something! Tell me it’s not real! Say it!!”But Brown didn't respond, his bloodshot eyes fluttered.Then suddenly his body went limp.His head dropped to the side. His breathing stopped. He fainted right there on their floor, bruised, broken, silent.“Brown?!” Nathaniel Jr. snapped. “Hey!”
