Chapter 207
They arrived at the embassy.Andrea still hadn’t let go of Carl. Every small sound made her flinch, her fingers tightening around his sleeve as if he were the only thing keeping her grounded. Even though Carl hesitated, he didn’t pull away. He simply let her hold on.“I’ve already called the palace,” Carl said quietly. “They said your butler will arrive later.”They were inside one of the embassy’s private rooms. Carl guided Andrea to the sofa and handed her a glass of water, urging her to drink so she could calm down.“Did my father call already?” Andrea asked.Carl paused. “Uh… no.”Andrea’s shoulders slumped. Her hands trembled as she took another sip of water.“He doesn’t really care,” she whispered.Carl noticed the sadness in her eyes. He sighed and sat beside her.“Don’t worry. You’ll be safe here now. I won’t leave until your butler arrives.”Andrea took a deep breath and shook her head.“I… I just don’t understand why this is happ

Carl grabbed the last man by the neck, his grip tightening as he forced him up against the wall. His eyes burned with fury as the man struggled for air.“Who sent you?” Carl demanded coldly. “Why do you want to kill the princess?”The man clawed at Carl’s arm, gasping. And then—despite the lack of oxygen—he smirked.“D-Do you really think you can save her?” he rasped. “You’ve already made a huge mistake by getting involved.”Before Carl could react, the man suddenly reached for his waist. A blade flashed.“Wait—!”Too late.The man drove the knife straight into his own chest.Carl released him in shock as the body collapsed to the floor, lifeless within seconds. He stared down at the corpse, his jaw tightening.He was ready to die… just to keep his master’s identity a secret?Carl let out a sharp breath and turned toward Andrea.She had been hiding behind the reception counter with sev
Chapter 205
After making sure everything at the orphanage was finally in order, Carl said his goodbyes with Andrea and the staff.They headed straight to a nearby restaurant—Andrea insisted. She wanted to talk to Carl. Truth be told, she still didn’t fully trust him. More than that, he had crossed a line with her first, and no matter how much he’d helped, she couldn’t ignore that fact. She still didn’t know what his true intentions were.“Let me get this straight, Mister,” Andrea began, folding her arms. “You don’t have to take responsibility just because—”She stopped mid-sentence and took a deep breath.Carl looked at her calmly.“I should,” he said honestly. “But I’m here because of work, Princess.”Andrea rolled her eyes hard.“Can you stop calling me that?”“But you are—”Andrea flicked her fingers toward him, cutting him off. Carl immediately shut his mouth.She’s even fiercer than Sophia, Carl thoug

Jude turned toward the voice, irritation flashing across his face.“And who the hell are you?” he sneered.Carl stepped forward at last, his hands slipping casually out of his pockets. His expression was calm—too calm. The kind that made seasoned fighters uneasy.“I already told you,” Carl said evenly. “Let. Her. Go.”Jude laughed and tightened his grip on Andrea’s arm.“You think one man can stop us? Do you have any idea who you’re dealing with?”Carl tilted his head slightly, eyes darkening.“No,” he replied. “But I know one thing.”Before Jude could react—Bang.Carl’s fist slammed straight into Jude’s jaw.The impact sent Jude flying backward, crashing into two of his own men. Andrea stumbled as Carl pulled her away from them in one smooth motion, placing her behind him.“Stay there,” Carl said without looking back.Everything exploded at once.The gangst
Chapter 203
Outside the orphanage, men were already scattered across the grounds—the gang Madam Lee had borrowed money from. Each of them carried clubs and metal rods, as if they were storming an enemy territory rather than collecting a debt.Carl noticed them immediately. His brows furrowed, his body instinctively shifting into a guarded stance.Madam Lee and several staff members stepped outside, while the others hurried the children back into the building.Despite the staff trying to stop her, Andrea followed them out.“Madam Lee… it’s your due today,” one man said lazily. He held a cigarette between his fingers, taking slow drags as smoke curled into the air.Madam Lee stepped forward, forcing a nervous smile.“M-Mr. Jude, we don’t have the money yet. Could you please give us more time?” she pleaded.Jude let out a harsh, manic laugh.“What did you just say?” he sneered. “Are you really looking down on me, Mad
Chapter 202
Carl followed Andrea in silence.He still couldn’t understand why the crown princess of Brightskia was traveling alone in Armenia. Given her status, danger followed her like a shadow. Letting her roam without proper security was reckless.It was practically suicide.Andrea got into a car. Carl followed in another vehicle, keeping a careful distance.They stopped in front of an orphanage.Carl studied the building, and for a brief moment, something stirred in his chest.The place felt… familiar. Uncomfortably so.Andrea went straight inside the orphanage. The staff immediately welcomed her with warm smiles.“Welcome to our orphanage, Princess Andrea!”Andrea gave them a modest smile.This place held a special place in her heart.“Thank you,” she said gently. “I brought gifts for the children. Please get them from the car.”The staff nodded and headed outside while Andrea contin
