Her Story: Rise Of Tiffany Novel by Rex Ring

Chapter 569

“Why are you suddenly asking about this?” Although the king was a bit surprised, he still opened his mouth and explained, “I don’t know much, but since you want to hear it, I’ll tell you.”

It was about ten years ago–at least, that was what he vaguely remembered. The only thing he could recall with certainty was that the Azure Sea Royal Family was at its peak back then, thriving both financially and politically.

He had wanted his son, Shawn Affleck, to inherit the throne. However, the young Shawn had other ideas. He sneaked away from the Azure Sea Royal Family, claiming that as the future successor, he needed to travel to distant lands and see more of the world. Using the pretense of training and gaining experience, he slipped away.

The king, though furious, ultimately couldn’t suppress Shawn’s indomitable will and reluctantly allowed him to leave.

Eight months later, Shawn returned–not alone, but with a young woman named Faith Ashton.

Faith was strikingly beautiful, with a vibrant yet composed demeanor. Her words were confident and unpretentious, which immediately endeared her to the king.

He appreciated her elegance and grace and tacitly approved of the budding relationship between Shawn and Faith.

But then, á few months later, scandal struck. Faith got drunk at an event and was discovered in bed with another man. A month after that, it was revealed she was pregnant.

Faith vehemently insisted that she had not been intimate with anyone that night and that the child was Shawn’s. However, all the others in the Azure Sea Royal Family turned against her. She was vilified, her reputation shredded, and no one believed her. The uproar was relentless, with members of the royal court seizing the opportunity to oppose their union.

Some even declared that if Shawn, the crown prince, insisted on marrying Faith–a so–called “slut“-he would have to forfeit his claim to the throne.

Many people were forcing Shawn to make a choice.

The king’s anger boiled over. He publicly executed several dissenters to quell the uproar.

Even so, Shawn defied the family. He took Faith with him and left the Azure Sea Royal Family, vanishing from their lives for

a year.

The king organized search parties, but Shawn and Faith remained elusive.

Eventually, he consoled himself with the thought that they would be safe and perhaps they had sought refuge with the Ashton family in Traron City.

A year later, once the Azure Sea Royal Family’s internal chaos had subsided and his position was secure, the king sent emissaries to Traron City to inquire about the Ashton family. What they reported was devastating: Shawn and Faith had been hunted down and killed.
