Rufus' POV:
"Arrest Prince Richard." I ordered my men to capture Richard, who sat there numbly without betraying any emotion.
When my men got closer to him, he abruptly got to his feet and took two steps back. His clothes were wrinkled and stained with splashes of red wine. He looked as if he had just woken up from a drunken slumber.
"You! How can you arrest me?"
Noting that he was still obstinate despite his current situation, I scoffed coldly and ordered my subordinates, "Bring her in."
They approached with the female officer who had deceived Sylvia and was now covered in blood. Richard looked even more taken aback. He was flustered and no sound came from his mouth. The female officer knelt on the floor, her face drenched with tears. She didn't dare meet Richard's eyes.
Richard eyed her with disappointment. "You confessed everything?"
"Yes, she confessed everything. I've discovered all your hidden spies, both in the army and the imperial palace. Richard, there is no way for you to escape this time. Just surrender."
My half-brother finally snapped back to reality at that moment. He charged at me like an out-of-control wild horse. "Were you fucking mocking me?"
I placed my hands on his shoulders to control him and replied with a smile, "What did I do to you?
I just learned a few tricks from you."
I had no intention of doing anything to him. But on the day of the welcome party, he had landed up uninvited and behaved so arrogantly. So, I changed my mind.
Hidden dangers were just like a disaster that was waiting to happen, and they should always be nipped in the bud the soonest possible. Sla*h the (F)indNivil.et website on Gøøgle to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
"So that flower was fake? It couldn't lift the curse at all? You were lying to me! I wondered how anyone could know your situation so precisely. It turns out that you were the mastermind of this plot." Richard's eyes turned red with despair and insanity.
Feeling disgusted, I shoved him away and frostily said, "The flower was real. It's just that my curse had been removed before that."
I didn't know that the curse had been lifted until the day after the press conference. At that time, I had felt the dull ache in my head cease suddenly, and even the cruelty buried in the depths of my body had completely disappeared. That was when I guessed that the curse had been removed.
Later, my spies found out about Richard's secret actions, so I pretended to play along and set a trap for him.
Richard, who had assumed that his plan had succeeded, was immersed in the joy of victory. He had no idea that his men had betrayed him and given him up after he was grounded.
