The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge

Chapter 2078

Princess Annabeth took on this exhausting, long journey and risked being punished by her noble father once she returned. Her true intentions were revealed with one kiss-she had come for Declan, just to meet him.

A royal princess escaping the palace to meet the man she fancies-what a romantic foreign love story, like a pure fairytale.NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

However, the Thompsons only felt pressured.

"Camilla, are you sure it's okay to take the princess like this?"

In the room, Mila held her daughter's hand and asked nervously, "Will you be targeted by the royal family when you return? They won't make things difficult for you and Edward, will they?"

"They won't, Mom. Don't worry. The royal family has a close relationship with us."

Camilla's voice was gentle as she comforted Mila softly, "Besides, am I so foolish as to kidnap a princess? Annabeth thought she escaped from the palace, but in fact, right after she boarded my private plane, I contacted the queen.

"The queen knows that the princess is with me and is assured. But she also sent the royal guards here to protect the princess secretly. They definitely won't let her run wild without a care."

"Aunt Mila, don't worry." Bella happily enjoyed the famous cakes from Sentania that Camilla brought with her, chiming in at the side, "The Sentania royal family handed over all power to the presidential office twenty years ago. Now, they don't have any real power anymore. They're just figureheads. Honestly, they are the ones who have to be careful around my brother-in-law and the parliament. How would they dare to give them a hard time?

"But in the past, the royal family of Sentania was said to be the world's scariest, treacherous, and most dangerous royal family. They had many special agents and guards working for them and had their own way of dealing with people who violated palace and country rules.

"At that time, Sentania had corrupted officials and cruel executioners. The officialdom was dark, and the palace devoured people whole. Scary!"

"That was in the past. After the hard work of a few generations, it has completely changed." Camilla smiled and poured tea for her sister, worried her throat would be dry after eating so many cakes.

Mila was surprised. "Wow, Bella, did you obtain Sentania's citizenship? How do you know so much?"

"I frequently searched for Sentania's royal family secrets online as gossip! It was much more interesting than TV dramas and movies."

Bella narrowed her eyes. "Just reading the rumors gave me chills. The real situation in the royal family back then could only be more horrifying and brutal. But Camilla, does the royal family know about Declan and that princess' relationship? She chased him to someone else's wedding. It's impossible the royal family doesn't know, right?"

At the mention of this, Camilla had a complicated gaze. "How could they not know? The queen privately talked to me a few times, asking me to play matchmaker,"

"Pfft!"

Bella spat out a mouthful of tea, and the pastries in Mila's hand dropped to the ground.

"Does... Does this mean my brother is going to become a prince consort?!"

"Declan will be a prince consort?! My God... Is our family going to become in-laws with a royal family? Doesn't that mean Wyatt would be a royal father-in-law?!"

"The queen is not a mother who spoils her child. She has her eyes on Declan's military title and his family background as the wealthiest in Hatchbay. Besides, Declan is extremely handsome, and the queen could not find any faults with his character, so... she did not stop Annabeth from getting close to him. Otherwise, Princess Annabeth would have been grounded long ago. How could she fly all the way here to see him? The royal family in Sentania is famous for being strict."

"Then what's Declan's intentions?" Mila asked with concern.

"Declan definitely has something for the princess." Bella's eyes flickered with a smart gleam. "Otherwise, how could a cold and untouchable man like him just stand there like a fool, letting a woman he doesn't like kiss him? The only possibility was that they have feelings for each other."

"Declan is free to decide who he likes." Camilla pursed her lips. "But if he really wants to have a future with the princess... He has to move to Sentania and be a live-in husband, forever staying in the palace. The princess would never marry into our family."

Bella and Mila said simultaneously. "That won't do! Being a live-in husband is out of the question!"

Camilla smiled bitterly. "Then it would be difficult. The royal family won't compromise on this."

The three women fell silent.

They felt that the road ahead of Declan and the princess would not be so smooth.

"Tonight, when Dad saw Annabeth, his expression suddenly darkened. I wonder if he doesn't like Declan being involved with a royal member." Bella was keen and especially attentive to her family.
