Chapter 506: Jealousy Upon Arrival
’Pang!’
A resounding slap landed hard across the Grand Duke’s face, leaving everyone utterly stunned.
Kyren’s eyes widened as he brought his palm to his reddening cheek. He hadn’t seen that coming at all.
"What was that for?!" he exclaimed, bewildered.
In that instant, Anna bit her trembling lip. The tears glimmering in her eyes finally spilt over, streaming down her cheeks.
"There I was at the palace, accused of infidelity and carrying another man’s child... fighting for my life and my baby... while you’re here thinking of taking another concubine after accusing me?! How could you?! Where is your heart, Kyren Raychard?!" the princess cried out.
The crowd fell silent. Not a single soul dared voice an opinion, while Athillia stared at Anna, deeply confused.
"What? When did I say I wanted to take another concubine?" Kyren asked, bewildered.
"You just did! You said about giving her a family and letting her stay with us! Haven’t you given me enough hints already?"
Anna began slamming her hands against the Grand Duke’s chest and arms. Yet none of her blows seemed to have any real effect on him.
The princess clenched her fist and swung it forcefully again, but Kyren agilely caught her arm. She tried again with her other hand, but he seized that one too just as swiftly. There was no doubt that the guardian of the Khasif was more than capable of subduing her.
"Enough, Anna! You’re mistaken!" Kyren shouted, embarrassed and frustrated at being misunderstood so completely.
