Chapter 21: Injured Kitten

Irene lay in Ronald's arms for a long time without moving. When she broke free of his arms, Irene found out that he was asleep.

She had heard the news of his father's death when she was still in Murcia. At that time, he should be only in his teens. His parents had passed away one after another, and he still had to shoulder the heavy responsibility left by his father.

Forget it, let it be.

She had lost. If she left again, he would seem to be alone once again. Even if she returned to Murcia, her father did not care, and her mother was not her biological mother. She was even disliked by other princes and princesses without doing anything.

Now that the truth of the substitute marriage had been exposed, she did not have to worry about being discovered all day long. Even if he went crazy and killed her one day, she would accept it.
