Chapter 1166

Oscar dropped to his knees, tears streaming down his face as he called out, "Grand Princess Eleanor!"

He then collapsed onto the floor, weeping bitterly.

However, Eleanor didn't even lift her eyes. It was as if she were lost to herself, neither seeing nor hearing him.

After his crying fit subsided, Oscar took out a tray of pastries. Argent was about to come over to inspect them, but Mabel stopped him.

"Prince Rafael said there's no need to inspect the pastries," Mabel said. "She's allowed to eat them."

Oscar knelt on the ground, his eyes red and swollen. His voice trembled as he spoke.

However, her bloodshot eyes were still noticeable. "Put it down," she said. Her words, rough and unclear without teeth, were still unmistakable.

With trembling hands, Oscars held up a set of clothes. "And here's a change of clothes. Let me help you put them on."
