Sylvia's POV:

I couldn't believe my ears. Lucy had actually lied in Richard's favor. I really thought that she would have a conscience, especially after surviving the jaws of death. But it turned out that I had thought too highly of her.

"Prince Richard has always respected Prince Rufus as his older brother. I simply can't understand why he would attempt to hurt Prince Richard's child." Lucy touched her belly and said in a pitiful tone, "Prince Richard has been looking forward to having a child for the longest child. Now, his wish is about to come true. Does Prince Rufus really hate us that much?"

"You're insane!" I was so angry that I burst into cynical laughter. Pointing at Richard, I spat at Lucy, "This jerk wanted to have you killed, yet you still help him! Is he threatening you somehow?" Lucy didn't respond. She just wiped her tears and looked at us piteously.

The note and the video were all faked by you, and then you framed me. You just wanted to drag my name across the mud, didn't you? What a vicious she-wolf you are!" "Aren't you afraid that this is all going to bite you in the back?" I scolded him harshly, grief and indignation surging in my heart.
