章 476: The options

Alicia's anguished cries echoed through the stone walls. The pain etched on her face was unbearable, and Paulina wasn't sure whether finding Prince Harold was the right option since the physician was against him meeting her soon. She didn't know the content of the letter Alicia had read; however, she knew that the pain she was feeling was far different from the ailment any physician could treat. If Prince Harold's presence was able to provide any solace to her ailing mistress, then she would not hesitate to find him. With a heavy heart, Paulina sought the prince, her steps echoing the urgency of the situation.

As Harold entered the room, his eyes widened in alarm at the sight of his Alicia in such agony. Without hesitation, he rushed to her side and enveloped her trembling form in his arms, holding her close to him.
