Chương 114: The Hypocrite

Islinda was barely able to contain the fury coursing through her veins like the liquid fire of mountain lava. At that moment, she wished for nothing else but to hurt Aldric. She would hurt him so much that he would think twice before ruining someone's reputation again. 

But even amid her blind fury, common sense spoke to her as she recalled his words, "Who do you think would benefit mostly from my death and want the throne so much?" 

The name was on her lips but Islinda refused to admit it because that would mean Valerie attempted to end her life. The trap he set up for Aldric would have taken her too if the dark prince had not saved her. 

No, it was wrong. Valerie would not do that to her. This was all Aldric's attempt to turn her against his brother whom she was still in love with. Aldric was a trickster. He was capable of many things and one of them was being a big manipulator. This was all lies.
