The Cursed Prince's Strange Bride

Chapter 467 The Long Summary (3)

Chapter 467  The Long Summary (3)

Susan had followed Tyra, who was sneaking around, and that was how she found the secret door too and followed. Especially since she didn't have any smell around her, she had been confident in tailing Tyra to see what she was up to. Remember how she had always been suspicious of the girl?

But she had unfortunately been caught, especially when Tyra was in her crazy mood.

"You are disgusting. And you will never get away with this." Susan had promised her just before Tyra scoffed at her, and also promised her that she would cry the loudest at her funeral and watch from the spirit world how she was going to take over the Moon Kingdom.

But the same Tyra was here... as a prisoner.

For Agnes, her crime was simple. Deceiving the palace by exchanging with herself and her sister. Her sister had unfortunately been Tyra's pawn in this whole mess, and so when she was done being used, she was disposed of, and the same fate would have awaited her sister if she hadn't been quick to hide before Alvin found her. The truth was revealed: Prince Harold had made her say it was the queen who ordered her to lie that Princess Amber killed Beth because he wanted to teach her what it felt like to simply take people's word or believe as you pleased without investigating.

Just like she had done to him when Harry died.

Just like she had also done to Alicia.

"You... are a monster..." The queen cried at Harold, feeling wronged.

But should that be her problem right now?

This was the problem with Lord Zealot's descendants. They never wanted to take responsibility for their actions. They always wanted to blame others.

Katherine.

She was in charge of the maid's quarters and the maids' health, but she had gone missing since the banquet night. She had learnt about Agnes and Matilda accidentally. And by mistake, she heard Tyra's instruction to Matilda about feeding the potion to Princess Amber. Knowing that had put her life at risk and she had fled the palace.

It was Damian who sent the information about Katherine to Susan. And he had done that only because he wanted to help her solve the puzzles she had been trying to solve.

He was already fed up at that point since his and Tyra's paths seemed to have diverged. He wanted to ruin her at once. But since he liked to remain in the shadows, he liked to use others.

However, he hadn't expected Susan to keep it all to herself.

It was only after her life bore the risk that he realized what he had done to her.

It was also when he realized he had messed up. He had liked her a little. She had been too different, brave, and naive to trust him. She was beautiful.

And beautiful.

For some reason, nothing made sense anymore after that, and he was tired of the whole thing.

He was fed up.

So he had captured Katherine himself. It was Tyra's desire to kill her because she was the proof that not only had she lied that she hadn't related with 'Agnes' before then, she had even instructed the girl to poison Princess Alicia.

If she had died from normal poison, it would have been difficult to blame the queen for it. But if she had something that would make her insane and fight to the death with Beth, it would have been different. Everyone knew who Beth was to the queen.

But nothing had worked out.

Nothing at all.

Katherine had told them as much as she knew, but there was something else that she had done but vowed to take to her grave no matter what. Something... the king had made her do.

For Ivan.

He was innocent of all charges of treason except stabbing an aristocrat to escape the palace, attacking Harold with a poisoned sword, and harming Luciana badly.

By the time Lance was done with the scroll, the crowd was left speechless. Everything was just too much to take in all at once.

All eyes turned to Harold, whose countenance was making it difficult for anyone to utter even a gasp of disbelief at what they had all just heard.

They all waited with bated breath for his judgment.

Suddenly, Lance stepped down, and the royal head physician climbed up to give his report.

If there was a single person who didn't already hate Tyra by now, hearing about Alicia's condition, especially finding out that she was with child, their hatred for Tyra soared, and this time, even Harold's countenance could not stop the people.

They yelled, pelted her with rotten goods, and shouted for her to be executed. But the said Tyra, who had been looking ahead with blank, unremorseful eyes, looked at Harold with betrayal as tears now clouded her eyes.

"How... could you do this to me?" Tyra cried, heartbroken. "HOW COULD YOU BETRAY ME BY CONCEIVING A CHILD WITH HER!" She yelled and began to cry, shaking her head.

The crowd was stunned beyond words. If they already didn't believe that she was crazy, they confirmed it now.

"You must be desperately willing to die!" Lance said in anger, impatiently storming to where she was. No one bothered to stop him as he kicked her with all his might, sending her falling to the ground.

"SHE MUST BE CRAZY!"

"SHE HAS REALLY LOST IT!"

The crowd couldn't believe it and even Ivan looked at her in disgust while her mother simply shut her eyes.

Harold looked at her with a blank expression. There was not a single sign of affection in his eyes as he watched his sister in that despicable state.

It was funny that the last time he found Lance bullying Tyra, he had been the one to kick Lance. Now...

"I will not let you die." Harold suddenly said, making the crowd go quiet as all eyes turned to look at him, some filled with disbelief.
