Chapter 25 

Waldo stormed off, his anger still boiling

Monica, clearly furious, muttered, His Highness is too much! Does he even understand what you’re saying?” 

Jessica responded coolly, It’s not that he doesn’t understand, he just feels untouchable

So, do you think he’s right in what he said?” Monica asked

Voin 

tinged with frustration

Monica thought, Now that General Garbisch is infertile and the Yates family has no heirs, is the King really going to take our military power just because we have no successor?‘ 

Waldo is heartless, and Prince Leon is terrifying. What do 

We 

do now?Monica’s 

worry was palpable

Things will work out when we get there. Why are you so anxious?Jessica she was holding

gave 

Monica a light tap on the head before her gaze fell on the wooden box 

Monica, still curious, asked, My lady, what’s in this box? Is it really the wedding 

When Prince Leon came, his presence was so overwhelming that Monica didn’t approach, but she overheard something about a wedding gift

But she thought, ‘Who would be so stingy as to give only a small item as a wedding gift?‘ 

The wooden box seemed simple and rustic, not at all luxurious. Whatever was inside couldn’t possibly be anything valuable

Did Prince Leon really come to propose?she asked

Don’t you believe me?Jessica started walking toward the main house

Monica pouted. It’s not that I don’t believe itI just don’t want to believe it. Prince Leon’s face was ruined because of your plan. For him to come now and ask for your handhow does that make sense?” 

I don’t know his real intentions either.Jessica sighed, feeling a headache forming at the mention of Leon

Dealing with Waldo was difficult enough, but now Leon’s arrival made everything even more complicated

Go bring my brother to the study. I need to discuss something with him.” 

Monica, still full of questions, nodded reluctantly. Yes, my lady.” 

When Garbisch arrived in the study, Monica finally got the chance to see what was inside the wooden box

The Northern Border’s military token! This was the token of the Northern Border’s army, commanding an entire army of 100,000 soldiers

Holding something like this felt like holding fireit was dangerous, powerful, and could be deadly. She wondered, Is Prince Leon really just handing it over to our household so casually?‘ 

Could itcould it be fake?Monica gasped, struggling to speak

Garbisch, still processing, finally spoke. Jessica, this military token is real.” 

Jessica knew it was real. After accompanying Waldo on countless campaigns, she could tell the difference between a genuine military token and a fake one with a single glance

It was only because it was real that her face had gone pale when she received it. If Waldo hadn’t arrived when he did, she wasn’t sure how she would have rejected Leon facetoface

Chapter 25 

With Prince Leon’s cold, commanding presence, who could have refused him outright

So, what do you plan to do? Do you have any idea what he’s really after?Garbisch asked, his concern growing

From the battle years ago, he knew that between Prince Leon and Jessica, there was only hatred, not affection. So he wondered, What could be his true reason for the proposal?‘ 

Do you think he plans to marry you, then torture you every day as revenge for his disfigurement?Garbisch couldn’t let Jessica fall into such a situation

Jéssica shook her head. With Prince Leon’s power, does he really need to risk ten thousand soldiers just to torment a small noblewoman like me?” 

So what does he want?Garbisch asked, more confused than ever

Jessica sighed, feeling equally unsure. I don’t know either.” 

Both Garbisch and Monica were anxious. If even the cleverest Jessica couldn’t figure it out, how could they

Jessica finally placed the military token back into the box and handed it to Garbisch. This token can’t stay in the Yates family. If the King finds out abou it, it will bring disaster.” 

Just as she finished speaking, their guard, Nolan Knox, hurriedly knocked on the door. Someone from the palace has arrived!” 

Jessica and Garbisch exchanged a look, their hearts sinking, thinking, The news is spreading this fast?‘
