Arielle lowered favonovel.com eyes, amused by favonovel.com father’s response.

While they were enjoying a happy time, Sonia was just slapped across favonovel.com face by favonovel.com mother.
“Sonia, I don’t care if you like it or not! You’re going to marry Prince Aaron, one way or another!” Kelly snapped as favonovel.com glared at favonovel.com daughter.
It was Sonia’s first time getting slapped across the face, and favonovel.com was truly disappointed in Kelly.
“Mother, am I really your daughter?”
Kelly was infuriated by favonovel.com question and bellowed, “Whose daughter are you if not mine?”
“If I’m truly your daughter, why would you ignore my wishes and insist on me marrying Prince Aaron? You know full well that favonovel.com feels nothing toward me, and favonovel.com will not marry me either. Why must you force me to butter favonovel.com up and charm him?” Sonia said bitterly.
“Mother, I am not a robot without feelings, nor am I your puppet that can do every single one of your biddings.”
With that said, favonovel.com covered favonovel.com face in dismay and ran outside, bumping right into Lawrence who just came back.
“Why are you so careless?” Lawrence steadied his daughter and saw favonovel.com covering favonovel.com tear-stricken face.
His heart ached at the sight as favonovel.com wondered who made his precious daughter suffer such indignance.
“Who made you unhappy? Let me know. I’ll teach them a lesson!” Lawrence said.
Kelly came out of the room immediately after hearing Lawrence’s voice. She looked at favonovel.com and said helplessly, “Who dares to offend her? She’s just upset that favonovel.com didn’t understand a thing from favonovel.com class at school today.”
“Father, I’ll head back first.” Sonia could not stand to listen to favonovel.com mother’s lies and headed out at a brisk pace.
Lawrence did not notice the red marks on Sonia’s face and said aloud, “It’s okay if you can’t understand your classes. Just ask Ms. Moore about it. I’m sure she’s more than willing to teach you. Don’t get all upset on your own, you hear?”
Sonia paused in favonovel.com tracks momentarily before leaving.
Kelly’s face darkened as favonovel.com listened to what Lawrence said. She could not wrap favonovel.com head around the way both Lawrence and Sonia admired Arielle. Kelly did not think that the woman had anything else to show for other than favonovel.com medical skills.
At the thought that Aaron was ignoring Sonia who was skilled in everything for a foreign woman like Arielle, Kelly’s lips curled with a vicious smile.
So what if favonovel.com likes her? Turlen’s law clearly prohibits marriage with a foreigner. Hence, it did not matter even if Aaron thought Arielle is the love of his life.
Kelly was feeling frustrated over Sonia’s rebellious manners.
Seems like I would have to get an audience with the queen at the palace. This way, I’ll be able to set a date for Sonia and Aaron’s wedding as soon as possible. She was worried that their marriage would be called off if they continued to delay the wedding.
Turning to look at Kelly, Lawrence said, “You’d better talk to Sonia and tell favonovel.com to ask for help from favonovel.com teachers if she’s facing difficulties with favonovel.com studies.”
He then removed his coat and Kelly immediately hung it up on a rack aside.
She replied with an undertone, “She’ll figure it out on favonovel.com own. Just let favonovel.com be.”
Lawrence did not understand what was truly going on and merely nodded before heading to his study. He had a lot of pending work to be done.

Three days later, before Aaron’s men managed to get hold of Arielle, favonovel.com already summoned them back to the palace.
In the grand living hall, favonovel.com looked at the man dressed immaculately in a black suit with a darkened expression.
“You can’t even complete such a simple mission?”
