Chapter 246: Another Broken Engagement

As for this matter, the Yellow Kingdom’s King was thinking how to solve it.

Before he could think of anything, Duchess Isabella had already came forward to give him the solution.

Of course, the Yellow Kingdom’s King agreed happily.

On the surface, he remained calm and said nothing excessive, but it was clear that his heart has calmed down. He was very happy that the engagement was dissolved.

In this way, Prince Edward could find another woman who was smart enough and know how to support him.

As for where to find that kind of woman?

There were many nobles who were silent and they were naturally not the neutral party. They were actually leaning towards Prince Edward, but they didn’t dare to speak out in case they would be implicated.

But when things calmed down, these nobles would definitely stand up for Prince Edward.

At that time, the Yellow Kingdom’s King would be able to make the arrangement for Prince Edward’s marriage.

As for now, there was no need to worry at all.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Duchess Isabella was happy when she heard the Yellow Kingdom’s King agreed to her request.

Duke White frowned at the side and looked at Duchess Isabella with storage look.

In his opinion, even if Adela is not the crown princess, but being a princess is also a good thing. After all, being able to be connected to the Royal Family represented a high leap of her identity.

But Duchess Isabella had different opinion.

As a member of the Royal Family in the Red Kingdom, it could be said that Duchess Isabella knew very well that there were more disadvantage than advantage being part of the Royal Family without real power.

So unless Prince Edward could make some achievements worthy of praise, he was worthless in Duchess Isabella’s eyes.

"Father, this is..." Prince Edward desperately looked at his father, but he found the Yellow Kingdom’s King didn’t even look in his direction.

It was clear that the Yellow Kingdom’s King had decided to abandon this son of his.

Even though the Yellow Kingdom’s King hadn’t appointed the second prince as the crown prince, it seemed to be inevitable.

Only time was needed.

Time to test whether the second prince was truly worthy to be in this position.

So the Yellow Kingdom’s King was not in a hurry. Of course, he also didn’t want to pay attention to this disappointing son.

"The meeting is adjourned." the Yellow Kingdom’s King swept his gaze across the people in front of him. "I hope you can make your decision soon. The first prince is punished and will be grounded in his palace until further notice."

"Father! Father!"

That could be the said to be the end of the meeting not long ago.

Duke White and Duchess Isabella walked out of the main hall and then quarreled with each other.

"You’re too impulsive. What if Prince Edward can make a breakthrough in the future?" Duke White felt irritable. "Moreover, the status of a princess is good for Adela..."

"Adela is already a princess!" Duchess Isabella sneered. "I’m the princess of the Red Kingdom and as my daughter, Adela is naturally also a princess."

The words that were about to be said by Duke White were instantly swallowed back. He looked at Duchess Isabella speechlessly.

At this moment, Duke White wondered why did he agree to this political marriage in the past?

It felt to be utterly ridiculous.

He and Duchess Isabella couldn’t really see each other eye to eye.

"You’re in the Yellow Kingdom and not the Red Kingdom!"

"It doesn’t change the fact that..."

...

Duke White and Duchess Isabella quarreled for a long time before they finally agreed to tell Adela about this first.

So when Adela heard that her engagement with Crown Prince Edward...no, it was now Prince Edward, was terminated, she had a dumb expression.

While Adela did think that she might need to choose someone else, being told so frankly by her parents like this still made Adela felt strange.

She thought that the process itself would take an extremely long time.

But..

Her parents told her that it would be easily done.

And now, Adela no longer had a fiancé.

"Is it alright?" Adela asked, her voice was low.

Duchess Isabella nodded. "Now, come back to the White Family Residence. We’ll talk about your next engagement later."

"Next one?" Adela was dumbfounded.

"You’re already 17 years old. You’ll be an adult next year, so of course we have to find a fiancé for you." Duchess Isabella snorted.

When Duchess Isabella was 18 years old, she was married to Duke White. The marriage was quite grand because it was a political marriage between the two kingdoms.

The two of them didn’t reject each other.

Anyway, it was not like the other party had done something that crossed their bottom line.

They just need to get along with each other well after marrying each other.

"I..."

"Don’t decide on things so hastily." Duke White frowned.

Now that the engagement has just been terminated and Duchess Isabella had already wanted to find another person to make a new engagement? It was simply too fast.

"Don’t worry, I’ll select carefully. If it’s not possible in the Yellow Kingdom, we can go to the Red Kingdom too."

"Are you going to leave?" Duke White was dumbfounded.

"Do you think I don’t know what the situation in your territory was? The income is really very little and I want to find my brother to ask for some blessings."

"It’s not that bad! Don’t you speak nonsense!"

Adela watched as Duke White and Duchess Isabella quarreled with each other blankly. At this moment, she didn’t understand why her parents would argue with each other.

Moreover, she was thinking about the better option than Prince Edward.

Isn’t there still Prince Charles?

The law didn’t say that marrying cousins were impossible. Moreover, Prince Charles and Adela were not exactly cousins with each other. Of course, this matter was a secret and Adela had no intention to reveal it.

When she first thought that the two of them were cousins, she even thought about scolding the developer.

Because such a topic is quite... interesting.

But later on, the developer explained that the two of them were not related by blood. In this way, the engagement between Adela and Prince Charles would not create a lot of trouble for the game developer.

Anyway, with the support of the law, Prince Charles is still a possible target.

It was just...

Would her mother agree?

Adela looked at her mother in front of her who was still arguing with Duke White. Her mother wanted her to get married quickly, but Adela knew very well that she had no intention to get married to just anyone.

Ordinary nobles couldn’t enter her eyes in the slightest bit.

Well, it seemed that she had to figure out a way to talk with her parents first about this.

As for Crown Prince Edward?

As much as Adela like this character, she knew that it would be impossible for her to be wit him. Moreover, he was no longer the crown prince and only an ordinary prince who was contending for the throne with the second prince.

She had to pick the best one for her future.

"Mother," Adela called out.

"What is it, Sweetheart?" Duchess Isabella quickly looked at her daughter dotingly.

"I want to go to the Red Kingdom."

...

The Yellow Kingdom, Annelie and Leon’s side

The marriage between Annelie and Leon could be said to be an arranged marriage between the two families. And the two people were not really against this matter.

Perhaps, at the beginning, they didn’t have the best relationship with each other.

But after a while, they still chose this path, so in the end, it was their decision.

Right now, the two of them were sitting in the study room, looking through the report that was handed over to them. The matter of the Royal Family was already made known to many people and they also heard about it.

Leon, who used to be close with Crown Prince Edward, looked at the information in his hand and sighed deeply.

"Prince Edward is no longer the crown prince," Leon muttered in a low voice.

Perhaps, this should be expected?

Thinking about the days in the Capital Academy where Crown Prince Edward didn’t even study well and instead spent his time paddling, Leon shook his head.

They were born at the high position with many people’s expectation placed on them.

If they couldn’t live up to this expectation, what awaited them would be other people taking what previously belong to them.

They wanted result.

If they couldn’t provide it, what was the point of them staying in that position?

The nobility is cruel and competitive.

Annelie nodded at Leon’s statement because she had also read this information. "Do you plan to help him as his friends?"
