章節 393: Make Me Regret It

"Alex, what brings you here?" Imbert inquired. 

Alex halted, fixing his gaze on Imbert, a dear friend of his. "Her Highness is arriving here, and I must inform His Highness of her impending arrival."

Imbert was taken aback. "Here?"

In a rush, Alex nodded. "Excuse me."

"Wait."

Alex paused, and Imbert, sensing his unspoken question, added, "Wait a little longer."

Alex was puzzled, but Imbert answered the unspoken query in his eyes. "You can inform His Highness once she has crossed the threshold of the palace."
