Bab 932: It Is All In Vain

Rowena smiled worriedly but then followed the royal bodyguard and they were taken to the royal infirmary. Although Julian woke up during the banquets right before Rowena left, the bodyguard explained that his condition still ended up worsening especially when Rowena left.

"He must have only tried to stay strong for my sake." Rowena pursed her lips and tried to blink back her tears. "Stupid."

After what seemed like such a long time, she was finally reunited with her friend.

True to the bodyguard's words, Julian was not awake, and instead, he simply rested on the bed.  Both the King and the Second Prince were present, with the former standing around Julian's bed and Liam in his own chair, covered in blankets.

The bodyguard spoke up. "His Highness, Princess Liam tried to chase after you—"

"Julian!" Rowena rushed to her friend's bed and knelt down at his side.

"You are back, Princess." the king looked up weakly. He hadn't been able to sleep.
