Peace Offering To The Cursed Prince - Chapter 402

The throne room Bozoa royal palace.

“Your Majesty,” Prince William bowed to the king and Queen. He had woken up very early and returned to Bozoa. Since the family that saved him were very poor, they could not find information about what was happening, in the Palace. So he decided to leave Avalo as early as possible in order to arrive before Richard.

Prince William knew that the Royal Palace of Avalo was looking for him so he took the chance to return to Bozoa first. He believes that as long as he told his story first it will be difficult for Richard to clear his name.

“What happens? Why are you looking like this,” King George was surprised, if not that he knew his son since he was young he would not have been able to recognize him.

“Father, I was attacked, I almost lost my life, it was this lady’s family that saved me,” Prince William answered

“How is that possible? No matter what the kingdom of Avalo will not give you such a poor environment to live in,” King George was angry hearing this.

He knew that he could not start a war with Avalo but this was a slap in his face. “It is not what you think, the king invited us into the palace. On the day of the coronation, I had decided to go out to take a look at the city. At first, Richard was interested but he suddenly changed his mind and so I went on my own.

After I come out of the royal carriage assigned to us I decided to look around on foot. I soon notice that I was been followed by a group of men. I hurried to get away but since I did not know my way around. I missed my way and ended up in a secluded place when the group of men attacked me. I tried to fight back but I was outnumbered with no weapons on me.

They took away all the valuable things I had and left me for my death. Luckily her brothers came by and saved my life, prince Williams narrated. He had deliberately made it sound like Richard knew about his plans. This made him the first suspect, after all, he had the motive.

” so you are saying you fell into the hands of thieves,” Ann who has been quite on the side finally spoke.

Prince William looked at Ann with hatred. “Although, they appear like thieves but it seems like they were on a mission to pretend to be thieves. After all like I said all this happened after I came down from the royal carriage, it seems they were waiting for me,” Prince William replied.

Although he did not call Richard’s name everyone will easily think of Richard after all he was the only one that had something to benefit from it, if something happens to him.

“So you are saying someone targetted you?” King George asked. He doubted his son’s words.

“Yes,” Prince William answered with confidence. Since he was not able to get the kind of benefits that took him to Avalo he decided to use his injuries to gain some sympathy and benefits. At the same time get ride of Richard or at the very least make the king lose faith in him(Richard)/

Ann rolled her eyes even without thinking too much about it, she could guess what the prince was thinking.

“Why will someone target you in Avalo? Unless you caused trouble the night before,” Ann said.

Prince William once more curses Ann in his heart. He did not want to directly accuse Richard. He just wanted to point fingers and get Richard in trouble. This way even if Richard is able to clear his name, he(william) will not get into any problems for accusing Richard falsely.

“Of course, not, I am not stupid why will I cause trouble in a kingdom that I am visiting for the first time,” Prince William replied.

Ann did not say anything else, instead, she looked at the king. “So why did you not ask this lady to guild you back to the palace, after all, the person trying to hurt you could have attacked you once they realize you are still alive,” King George asked.

“Father, I did not know if the person after me was in the Palace, so I did not dare return. Instead, I returned to the kingdom where I was certain of my safety,” Prince William replied.

Once again Ann rolled her eyes, “why will anyone in the palace think of attacking you? Especially when you were still in their kingdom and your death there will not bring them any benefits. We all know what kind of king Avalo has. He is not afaird of open confrontation,” Ann sounded innocent but she knew that she was ruining his plans.

She was not stupid, she could guess who he was indirectly accusing and she wanted him to point his finger directly if he dared. Ann was sure that the only reason why he was not trying to call a name was that he was lying.

Just when Prince William wanted to accuse Richard directly, they heard new footsteps.

“Father,” the person that walked in was Princess Ema. “Brother,” she was surprised to see prince Williams looking si unkempt.

“What happened to you?” She rushed over to look at her brother. “The internal conflict was indeed serious, the king has sent out men to look for you in the last two days,” princess Ema said.

She had no plans what her brother was up to, so she spoke what she knew directly.

Prince William was angry at his sister for ruining his plans further. His father was not a fool and there is an extent to which he will dare to mislead him. He had deliberately not mentioned anything about the internal conflict. After all, he could have gotten hurt before it started.

“Your Majesty,” Jeffery announced his presence. King George and Ann turned to look at him. Although nobody knew what Jeffery’s face looked like they could easily recognize him.

“Sir Jeffrey, ” king George turned to face him.
