At Southeast Aciatic, in the secret chamber at the palace…
Victoria looked around at the door. After ensuring no one was behind her, she asked her maid to wait outside and
entered discreetly.
Carmella was already inside, standing facing the wall. An oil painting portrait of her and the king, Martin, was hung
on it.
It was the year Martin had just become king. He was high-spirited, commanding, and confident. Dressed in formal
attire with a crown on his head, he stood behind Carmella, who sat in front with a soft smile.
There were two days in Carmella’s life that she had been the happiest—one was watching Martin become king, and
the other was becoming his bride.
Victoria came up behind her and called out softly, “Auntie.”
Carmella broke out of her daze. “All done?”
“Don’t worry, Auntie,” Victoria said with a smile. “I just came from a call with Suzanne and Joy. They’ve found the
husband and wife in Melorian…”

“Yes!” Victoria nodded and did not forget to pander to her. “Fortunately, you’re far-sighted and sent people for
them first. Otherwise, Suzanne and Joy couldn’t have found them so easily.”
“Are they sure it’s the two of them?”
“Yes, it’s Aurelia’s parents!” Victoria was triumphant. “I didn’t know that b*tch has parents like this. Hah, it’s no
wonder she’s cheap and despicable!”
Carmella did not say anything. Her expression was dim. She had only asked Victoria to look for the couple but had
not told her that those were not Aurelia’s birth parents at all.
She had passed by the west palace one day and thought she would go for a visit. It was a coincidence that she saw
Aurelia wear Helene’s white dress and smile brightly like a blooming flower…
The scene had shocked her so much that she stepped back and nearly fell into the pool. She fell to the ground with
a thud when she avoided the pool and heaved in loud gasps.
She had been under the impression that she had seen young Helene at that moment…
She refused to believe that the baby she had abandoned in the slum would come back this way. Still, she was
skeptical, and after two sleepless nights, she decided to ask her people in the west palace to collect samples from
Aurelia and Helene for a DNA test.
The DNA test result felt like an explosion right above her head.
Carmella took a deep breath and did her best to stop her hands from shaking. She turned to Victoria and asked in a
stern and deep voice, “Are the two of them arranged to come to Southeast Aciatic?”
“All done!” Victoria grinned. “Auntie, you’re really amazing to be able to find people like them! It’s said that they’re
illegal immigrants who abandoned that b*tch when she was ten.”
“People think that illegal immigrants are hard to trace, but with a little effort, they’re easy to find.” Carmella “One’s
a drug addict, and the other’s a prostitute. The circle’s only so wide. They can’t go far.”
“You’re right, Auntie.”
“Let them come as soon as possible.” Carmella closed her eyes as if she was talking to herself, “When they’re here,
everything will be over…”
‘Helene, don’t blame me,’ she thought. ‘I can’t let your daughter ruin Martin’s throne!’

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAurelia sat on the step at the palace door as she looked at the brick next to her, bored. That piece of brick was her
calendar—one stroke for each day she was here.
It was the 10th stroke today. It had been ten days since she was disconnected from the world.
It was long, and it was also short. It was just that she was no longer as reluctant as when she had first come. Maybe
it was because of Helene.
Subconsciously, she longed for the warmth Helene brought her.
She had been sleeping in the same bed with Helene these few days.
The maids in the palace slacked. There were always mosquitoes and insects in the palace, not that Aurelia was
scared of them. It was just Helene who was pitiful as she was often bitten and had large bumps that looked
frightening.
One midnight as Aurelia woke up groggily after she turned, she vaguely saw someone sitting by the bed. Shocked,
she nearly cried out loud only to see that it was Helene sitting there.
Helene held a fan in her hand as she worked hard to chase the mosquitoes away from her, but the bumps on her
face were still evident.
Aurelia’s heart clenched, and she suddenly felt like crying.
