Her Story: Rise Of Tiffany Novel by Rex Ring

Chapter 450

Kenneth had been holding it together for too long, but he was at his limit.

Now, he could barely keep his eyes open, his legs felt like lead, and he couldn't even lift himself off the ground. Every muscle ached as if he was carrying a mountain.

"Are you okay?" Tiffany knelt beside him, her fingers gently pressing his wrist.

His pulse was faint, and his skin was hot to the touch. He had a fever, likely from his wound, and if it worsened, infection was almost inevitable.

But before Tiffany could speak, Morwen cut in, smirking. "I don't have all day. Either leave him here and come with me to get the Eternal Herb or take him somewhere to get treated. You can only pick one." With her arms crossed, Morwen looked downright pleased, as if she was watching an entertaining play.

Tiffany's mind raced. She had come all this way to the Azure Sea Royal Palace for the Eternal Herb, even braving the dangerous challenges of the Treasure Pavilion to earn it.

However, Kenneth's condition was worsening, and if he didn't get help soon, it would be disastrous.

Kenneth, sensing her hesitation, shook his head and pushed himself up as best as he could. "I'm fine. Let's keep going," he insisted, steadying himself with pure grit.

His team was right behind them, ready to step in at a moment's notice. He wasn't going to die, not here, not now.

Tiffany clenched her jaw, then glanced at the head of the Treasure Pavilion nearby. "Do you have a wheelchair? I'd like to borrow one," she asked. Surely, in a palace this size, a wheelchair wasn't too much to ask for. The man nodded quickly. "Yes, yes, I'll get one right away-"

But before he could finish, Morwen's cold voice cut in, "Did I say yes? No, you may not."

"Uhm, well-" The head of the pavilion looked uncomfortable, clearly wanting to help but forced to lower his head to Morwen's authority. With an apologetic look at Tiffany, he seemed helpless.

Morwen, meanwhile, looked thrilled to have the upper hand. Her smug grin practically screamed, "This is my place-good luck challenging me here."

Tiffany just gave a cool, quiet smile, her sharp gaze so intimidating that even Morwen flinched. More people in the palace began turning their heads, and Morwen, sensing this, quickly grew anxious.

If the king saw Tiffany, Morwen would be finished. "Enough! I don't have time for this!" she snapped, her voice now edged with a hint of panic.
