Carl’s POV: 

After hearing the answer from Amelia, I headed back to my room in a daze.

What she said kept playing in my mind “Magic only has the power to change someone’s appearance or body.Under no circumstance can it change one’s heart and soul.The so-called black magic which can forcibly change someone’s mind actually just turns someone into a walking corpse.Black magic doesn’t change one’s mind; it erases it.”

How could this be? Did this mean that Larry had lied to me? He had told me that black magic was the answer to winning Jennifer’s heart.

I paced my room back and forth, running my fingers through my hair anxiously.I didn’t want to face the facts, but it was evident that Amelia had no reason to lie to me.

After all, she had nothing to do with me, so why would she lie? In a trance, I took out my phone and stared at Larry’s number on the screen.

I was very confused with myself, unsure as to what exactly it was that I wanted.I knew that I liked Jennifer.I had liked her ever since we were children.I had wanted to marry her since then.I never forgot about her in the years we were apart.I could never forget how beautiful her blue eyes were.I could never forget how soft her golden hair shone like the sun.

Whenever I stood next to her, I felt as warm as though the sun was shining on me.

Ah, my Jennifer, how much I loved her! I just wanted to be with her.

Little did I know that she was marrying another man, let alone the king.

Now, there was an insurmountable gap between my status and Jennifer’s.

Over dinner, I noticed the way Anthony looked at her.

I knew the look in his eye; it told of a man who loved a woman deeply.

It was clear to me that he loved Jennifer, just as I loved her.

Yes, the fact of reality was that Jennifer and Anthony were a couple.

They loved each other deeply.

No one else could separate them.

I had already realized this.

But every time I saw Anthony by Jennifer’s side, I couldn’t help but feel jealous.I gritted my teeth in anger.I hated myself.I hated myself for not being as noble as Anthony.I hated how fate was so unfair for not letting me find Jennifer sooner.

Logic dictated to me that I shouldn’t envy the king of the Osman Kingdom.

My feelings were unwarranted, but I couldn’t seem to find a solution to make myself stop liking Jennifer.

Every single time I saw the way she looked at Anthony, I was so jealousy that I could barely stop myself from flying into a fit of rage.

Clutching the phone in my hand, I sat on the bed and thought for a long time.

Finally, I took a deep breath and dialed the number Larry left me.I wanted to talk to him.
