Chapter 1641 Who On Earth Are You
“Who on earth are you, Dr. Moore? How did you know that word about His Majesty’s death is being covered up?”
Even though Arielle had once saved his father, Lawrence couldn’t help but feel doubtful of her.
Then, he remembered the news he had received early that day. Could she really be a spy from Chanaea, just like what the secretary had said?
Thinking that, the man’s gaze darkened as he stared at Arielle.
“I’m his daughter,” Arielle declared under his suspicious glance.
Those words sent Lawrence into a state of utter shock. Sonia was no different; she had known Arielle for so long, but never did the latter reveal her status as the king’s daughter.
“You… You’re saying you’re His Majesty’s daughter?” Lawrence asked, still astonished.
Arielle nodded. Had she known she would lose her father so soon, she wouldn’t have heeded Sybil’s advice on quashing her father’s thoughts about announcing her true identity.
At the thought of her father having worked so hard just so he could claim his throne and tell the world about her, the woman’s heart ached so much that she nearly couldn’t breathe.
She was filled with nothing but regret at this moment.
Lawrence turned to Harvey, who nodded to confirm Arielle’s identity.
“You call yourself His Majesty’s daughter, but what proof do you have? Why didn’t His Majesty ever disclose your identity?”
Despite receiving confirmation from Harvey, Lawrence was still skeptical. After all, Arielle was Chanaean, but Dylan had never left Turlen while he was alive. How, then, could Arielle be the king’s daughter?
Aware of Lawrence’s doubts, Arielle proceeded to tell him how the king had recognized her after she came to this country.
While speaking, the memories of her time with Dylan surfaced in her mind, and it wasn’t long until her eyes brimmed with tears.
“Oh, poor child!”
Kelly had left her room after learning that Lawrence had returned and overheard the five of them talking at the entrance of the house from afar. Upon hearing Arielle reminisce about her time with Dylan, the older woman felt a pang in her heart and walked up to Arielle to give her a hug.
Having lost her usual toughness and feeling Kelly’s kindness, Arielle returned the embrace, her heart feeling warmer.
Lawrence took a deep breath after hearing the woman’s explanation. It’s no wonder Harvey had said all those things back then. It’s all because Dr. Moore is His Majesty’s daughter. With her, it was no wonder His Majesty had plans to change the laws of the country.
“I had only managed to find out about His Majesty through a gardener who works at the palace,” he revealed. The gardener was someone he had helped in the past, and the former was so worried about a coup that he had secretly informed Lawrence about the palace’s recent affairs, hoping the latter could be more prepared for any potential crisis.
“Are you still able to reach him?” Arielle asked, letting go of Kelly.
Lawrence shook his head, looking worried. “I tried to call and text him after receiving the news, but there hasn’t been a response so far.”
I hope he hasn’t been caught. Please let him be okay.
Arielle remained silent after leaving the Wynter residence, her mind in complete disarray. She couldn’t accept the fact that her father, who had been doing fine all this while, was now gone.
Seeing the woman in such a state, Vinson pulled her into his arms, consoling her silently.
Suddenly, a piercing light flashed in their direction.
