A while later, it was time for Helene to take her medication.
Aurelia had specifically asked Rowan about this before, hoping that something could be specially made so Helene
could take it without fear or resistance.
Rowan had summoned the researchers of children’s medicine with a troubled look… and Helene got her special
medicine. It was in the shape of a firefly, and it was candy flavored. It even had a special name—Firefly Power Pill.
Aurelia took the water and medicine from the servant and told Helene with a smile, “Time for your power pill!”
Helene was happy, but she frowned. “I’ve taken it for so long. Why am I still not a firefly?”
“You really want to become a firefly?”
Helene quickly nodded.
Aurelia asked, pointing at the pillow, “What about your baby when you fly away after becoming a firefly?”
Helene looked horrified and scooped the pillow into her arms without saying a word.

become a firefly!”
“Really?”
“Yes!” Aurelia said with a smile, “Didn’t you say I’m the best to you in the west palace? Do you believe what I say?”
Helene took a moment to ponder before she nodded seriously. “Yes.”
“Then take the pill.” Aurelia handed it to her. “You’ll recover fast with the firefly power, and you can only protect
your baby after you recover, right?”
Helene approved of what she said very much, so she took the pill without kicking up a fuss and even drank two big
glasses of water. Rowan had said that she needed to drink more water to increase her metabolism rate so the
medicine would be more effective.
Aurelia kept her company for a while, and Helene soon fell asleep.
Aurelia got up to walk out of the palace.
It was currently in the afternoon. The sun baked the ground lazily, and the plants were drooping meekly from the
high temperature. The cicadas on the tree, too, were buzzing listlessly. The sky was azure without any clouds to
block out the light.
Aurelia sat in the main hall where the AC ran on full blast, and five servants fanned her gently at the back. Three
maids stood beside her, and two more crouched before her to serve her fruits.
As soon as she stretched her hand, feeling thirsty, the three maids beside her quickly picked up the glass from the
table to place it in her hand with all smiles.
Aurelia was baffled by their care.
She had repeatedly asked them not to crowd around her like this, but the group kept repeating the same thing like
a broken record, “Taking good care of Your Highness is our duty and an immense honor!”
They even flashed a standard smile with eight teeth after saying that.
Aurelia winced at that and could only give up.

was a gilded cage—this was not a world she could get used to.
A maid came in to report, “Your Highness, Mr. Harris is here.”
Aurelia paused. Her heart then began to thump beyond her control.
The moment Neil stepped inside, she was first dazed, staring at him before she watched him bow.
He looked so handsome when he bowed, especially with his hands clasped together and his fingertips meeting his
nose. There was a rugged seduction at that moment.
Aurelia coughed and put up a front… She was still a princess. No way could she act like she had never seen a man!
This time, it was Neil’s turn to be stunned.
What was the girl doing? Who was she sitting so straight and properly for? Did she not know that she looked dumb
sitting like that?
Neil smiled and purposely revealed the ring on his ring finger, stroking it twice.
“I… I have to talk to Mr. Harris in private.” Aurelia looked around. “Can you all leave now?”
“Well…” The servants and guards looked at each other, troubled.
