Though she couldn’t kill Nathan, she believed she could kill this bitch Lucinda!
Without hesitation, she ordered the guards nearest to her to discreetly aim at Lucinda and shoot her.
“Watch out!”
Kyson was the first to notice his mother’s intentions and immediately shielded Lucinda.
By the time the Princess Royal attempted to halt her guards, it was too late. The triggers had already been pulled.
The deafening sound of a gunshot filled the air.
Just as Lucinda reached the center of the red carpet, she heard the piercing gunshot, abruptly halted, and turned around.
Kyson clutched his arm as blood seeped through his fingers from the bullet wound.
The Princess Royal hurried forward to assess his injuries.
He glared at his mother and declared, “If you kill her, you kill me too!”
The Princess Royal felt a sense of helplessness and sorrow.
“Fine! I won’t harm her. My people will only protect you. Is that okay?”

Lucinda stood there, stunned by Kyson’s act of taking a bullet for her.
Kyson, despite his bloody hand, reached out to her slowly, mirroring Nathan’s gesture.
“Lucinda, return to me. This time, I genuinely want to protect you with my life. Can you choose me this time?”
She hesitated and made no move.
Behind her, Nathan also called out, “Lucinda.”
Snapping back to reality, she lowered her head and said, “I’m sorry..
She took off her crystal tiara and veil, turned around, and rushed towards Nathan, throwing herself into his strong arms as if no one else existed.
The familiarity and the comforting scent of Nathan embraced her, calming her racing heart.
“Nate, can you see now? Did Hilliard cure your eyes?”
Nathan held her waist with one hand while his other hand gently ran through her soft hair, and stroked the back of her head.
“Yes, your brothers took good care of me, but… I missed you so much.”
His voice choked with emotion, The pain of not seeing her for nearly two weeks weighed heavily on him.
