Chapter 198 - 137: Princess of the Ice Country (4)
"From today onwards, you are to stay in this room except for when you must appear before Antasia or at official events," Wozworth said angrily as he stormed out of the room after throwing down those words. He instructed the guards to blockade the surrounding area, not permitting the Prince to step even half a step out of the palace unless necessary.
He also summoned the steward waiting outside the door. Lindberg absolutely could not continue to live in this world. If a future investigation ever arose, it would suffice to push all the blame onto Lindberg, publicly claiming that Lindberg acted on his own to ingratiate himself with the Prince.
Poor Lindberg, who had spent these days at the Fairy House enjoying the services of enchanting women, was completely unaware that these were the last pleasures of his life.
Inside the palace, Lance’s face contorted fiercely.
The magic scroll in his hand healed the wound on his face inflicted by his father, but the emotional trauma was far from healing.
Due to the matter of the Prince Consort, his relationship with his father had been strained over the past few years. He could not understand why the Abshen Family insisted on following a tradition that had lasted thousands of years, insisting on marrying a woman from the Meisfield family.
Yet, he could never have imagined that his father would so indiscriminately pin the crime of murdering the Hero on him.
He heard some command his father issued outside and knew what fate awaited Lindberg, but he was powerless to change it.
Just like his father’s steward, Lindberg had been a companion by the Prince’s side since childhood. Though not brothers, their relationship was closer than that of real siblings.
