Shannon followed closely behind, looking at the frustrated Azalea with a dull expression. It would be a miracle if Azalea could get through this phone call! As the saying went, what goes around comes. around.
It meant that she brought all of this upon herself. She clearly had an enviable status as the Princess of Namb and Eugene’s lifesaver. Each identity was unattainable for others, so why wasn’t she content? She was self-righteous and thought herself clever, but little did she know that every move of hers was noticed by others!
How could it be so easy to scheme against Eugene? Now, all that awaited her was the calamity of imprisonment! Sure enough…
Azalea dialed the number, but the call would ring once and then hang up. She persisted and made several attempts, but the situation. remained the same. It was evident that she had been blocked!
She held the phone in confusion as she realized that he truly intended to sever ties with her. Shannon approached her calmly. “Eugene instructed that we arrange someone to escort you back. He will deal with Cameron and the others involved in the robbery, so you don’t have to worry about seeing them.”
Azalea smiled bitterly. Eugene was indeed ruthless! At least she could return safely, and according to his words, he had considered their past relationship!
However, he knew their entire plan and didn’t intervene. He watched them foolishly fall into the trap, only to be captured all at once. He was truly heartless!
‘Princess Azalea, you should prepare yourself. Do you really want to go back to Nambahd looking like this?” Shannon asked. Azalea put down her phone. Shannon was right. She couldn’t go back to her homeland in such a disgraceful state!
Azalea walked into the restroom. It seemed like wishful thinking for her to see a doctor. Eugene even sent Shannon to watch over her. Was he afraid that she wouldn’t leave?
After quickly freshening up, she followed Shannon to the airport. At the airport, Shannon gave instructions to the bodyguards who would escort her back. They were to take good care of Azalea on her journey.
In reality, it was more like a custody rather than an escort. Eugene was mindful of her status as the Princess of Namb, so he didn’t involve the police. Instead, he used the pretext of an escort.
However, Azalea probably never saw this coming. As soon as the plane landed, the Nambahd police officers were seen waiting at the exit. Upon seeing her, the two officers approached officially and handcuffed her!
Only after that did they present their credentials. Then, a police officer in uniform explained the reason by roughly stating that Eugene had pressed charges against her. She was accused of hiring someone to commit murder and the police were now requesting her assistance in the investigation!
Azalea felt like she was hearing things. Why was Eugene’s name mentioned? Her eyes widened, and she exclaimed, “Who did you say it was? Eugene?”
The officer replied, “Yes!”
She stood frozen in place for a while before shouting in disbelief, “Impossible! Eugene already let me return to Nambahd. How could he press charges against me?”
At that moment, a man approached them. He was the lawyer who had been arranged to be among the escort team. He addressed the two police officers, explaining, ‘Hello, I am Mr. Nolan’s representative lawyer! We have ample evidence to prove that Azalea hired someone to commit murder!”
He then handed over the prepared documents. After that, he turned to Azalea and said, “You are, after all, the Princess of Namb. Mr. Nolan promised to let you return to your homeland to preserve the dignity of the royal family, but that doesn’t mean he won’t hold you accountable!”
Azalea laughed bitterly. “Preserve… the dignity of the royal family? He wants me to serve my sentence in my own country and calls it preserving the dignity of the royal family?” The lawyer nodded slightly. “Yes.”
Tears blurred Azalea’s vision instantly. She had thought she held some significance, but now it seemed she was merely deluding herself! He truly had no feelings for her, not even a trace of gratitude.
