Chapter 206 - Plane Crash

Stacey never heard of the biggest treason in her life. A princess who married the third Prince betrayed the royal family and cheated on the prince. The divorce was granted and not everyone knows about this but then, she and Victoria won't stay quiet. The plan must go on. She will call Victoria as soon as the couple arrives at their destination. 

"And you were murdered too, mom?" Stacey asked Princess Vanessa. 

"Yes, I was murdered. But with my loving Butler, I am alive." She smiled. 

Maverick didn't comment on that. He knew that they have 'that' kind of relationship and he didn't know how long it was. But thinking that they might be married was something different. Still, he doesn't mind if her mother got remarried to someone who isn't a bastard like his biological father. 

"Snacks will be ready anytime soon, darling," Vanessa said. 

"I will cook for her," Maverick said and removed his coat. 

"But we still need to discuss something," Vanessa told him. 

"Mother, what else?" Maverick sighed in frustration. "They nearly killed us. My wife is pregnant and I can't deal with those assassins anymore." 

"Mave," Stacey weaned at him. 

"I want to kill them right away if that even matters." 

"It's hard to do that." Vanessa took out the tablet and gave it to him. The agents that were sent out were chasing that man. The man was named Xian Arnold Gazen, a man adopted by the Gazen family and became the most loyal subject. Xian Arnold Gazen was the one who killed Kenzo's parents. 

That night, when their car rolled down into the forest boundary between Iroland and Westeria, the man named Xian Arnold or disguised as Butler Kian was the one who plotted that accident and he made sure to kill the Duke and Duchess of Westeria. Maverick was the one who shot that man's left arm before he could kill Kenzo. 

Maverick will never forget that night. He witnessed how the Crown Prince escaped and a few days after that, he also needed to escape. Then, a different life started and he learned how to survive. He should thank them for partially ruining his life because he was stronger now than before. However, this time, he won't let them ruin his family anymore. 

"I see that he has become stronger." He said. "I should know his weakness soon. How about the ex-princess?" 

"She's somewhere. I am still tracking her. That's why we sent Kenzo and Victoria to the Spania Country. There's a possibility that she's there." 

"Spania was quite an odd country." He commented. "It's not the safest place for the Crown Prince and Princess." He crossed his arms and thought deeply. 

"Yes, that's why we sent them there," Vanessa said and sighed. 

"But why?" Maverick asked again. "Mother, if you are trying to make them as bait, I think it's not a good idea." 

"Our country is going to collaborate with the Spania. The Crown Prince needed to be there for the signing and groundbreaking." 

"And if something bad happened to them?" Maverick frowned. 

"That is why you are here, safely." Vanessa was a little tired of explaining. "You and Kaisley are reserved to the throne." 

Maverick frowned even more and smacked the sofa. 

"I don't care about the throne, mother." He said angrily. "I can't let anything bad happen to them." 

"I know," Vanessa sighed and massaged her forehead. "They are safe, I assure you that."

Princess Kaisley's Mansion,

She's currently receiving a foot massage from her handmaiden while she's reading some documents. Her husband was beside him receiving the same treatment and was also busy on his tablet reading a few audits and materials needed for the building. They were a busy couple but they always had time for each other even though they were working together. 

"Love, Victoria and Caleb are on their way to the other country, right?" Kaisley glanced at her husband. 

"Yeah. They should arrive at any moment now. It's only a two hours flight." He said and glanced at the time. 

Suddenly a notification popped on his tablet. Plane Crash near Spania Air territory. 

He quickly opened it, his heart started thumping when he saw the number of the private plane. He quickly pulled out his feet and stared at the details. 

"What's going on?" She asked and peeked at the tablet. "Babe?" 

"It's Victoria and Kenzo's plane." He mumbled. 

"What?!" Kaisley exclaimed and took the tablet from him. Her hands started shaking. Then, Caleb turned on the television. Currently, it's breaking news about the plane crash that the Duke and Duchess of Greivania own that are supposed to be on the way to Spania. 

The news anchor looked deeply sad and shocked from the news and currently, they sent out helicopters to search for the Duke and Duchess.

Parson Mansion,

Regina was sipping on his night tea while listening to the news when currently, the news anchor excused for a moment. 

Then, she started talking solemnly about the plane crash where the Duke and Duchess of Westeria owns. They are on their way to the Spania Country to attend groundbreaking and 100th Day unity. Regina dropped her cup and as she stared, wide eyes on the television. She started shaking and that's when she stood and walked toward the television. 

"Victoria," 

"Baroness," Yazmin rushed inside and held her. 

"Call Victoria." She exclaimed at her. "Call my granddaughter." 

"Y-yes, Ma'am." Yazmin gently took her back to her seat. 

Regina's chest felt tighter. She breathed in and out, but it continued to get tighter. 

"Madam!" Yazmin called and quickly pressed the medical emergency button for the Baroness. The Butlers and Maids nearby rushed inside. 

"Mother!" Bailey screamed when the Baroness collapsed. 

Renzel just came from his meeting with Mila Elish regarding her family business. He just entered but then the emergency car was pulled out. 

"What's going on?" She asked the maid who was rushing. 

"The Baroness collapsed after hearing the news about the Plane of Lady Victoria." 

"What?" He asked. "What happened?" 

The maid panted. 

"The plane," The maid panted. "The plane where the Duke and Duchess crashed on the boundary of the Spania." 

Renzel quickly rushed up and watched as Bailey carried his mother while the Butler's were assisting. He watched as they took the Baroness to the car. The first thing he should do is to make sure that Victoria isn't on that plane. He quickly pulled out his phone and tried to reach Secretary Loren, Kenzo's secretary but then he couldn't reach her. So, he called Stacey. 

Currently, Stacey isn't answering.

Aqua Castle,

Stacey was frozen after seeing the news about Victoria. She screamed and started shaking. 

"No!" Stacey panicked. "Victoria," She's not there, right?" She screamed at her husband. Maverick rushed to her and hugged her tightly. She wailed in pain as Maverick gently coaxed her. "Mave!" She shouted. "Tell me, Victoria's not there, right?" 

"Love," he gently pushed her and scooped her face. "Love, calm down. We will find out soon." 

Stacey breathed in and out just as Maverick said and he took her to the sofa and held both of her hands. It was cold as ice and she's shaking so much. 

"Victoria," Stacey cried. 

"Love, stop crying." Maverick sighed and he was too worried about Victoria and Kenzo. "It's not good for the baby." He said but she cried even more. He doesn't know what to do, with his wife breaking down and won't calm down. He can't search through Kenzo and Victoria in this kind of situation. But he trusts her mother to make sure that Victoria and Kenzo are safe. Even though their plane crashes into the sea. 

In that situation, there would be no survivors since the plane didn't have a turbulence malfunction. The rescuers claimed that it was intentional and a bomb was planted inside the plane. He turned off the television and tried to calm down his wife. The door opened and Butler Reinheart entered with a glass of water for Stacey. 

Maverick took it and made her drink the water with peppermint ice cubes. She slowly calmed down but she's still crying. 

"Shh," he scooped her face and wiped her tears. "They haven't been confirmed yet, alright? So, calm down." 

She nodded her head as she held his hand tightly. 

"Find Victoria, please." She pleaded to him. 

"I will do that. But first, you have to calm down. It's bad for our baby." He gently caressed her stomach. Stacey sniffled and reached the handkerchief that Butler Reinheart offered. She blew her nose and leaned on the sofa. 

"Stay here, okay?" He reached her head and patted. 

"I will stay here." 

He glanced at Stacey's phone that was ringing crazily and he took it and answered. 

"Hello?" 

"Duke Maverick?" Renzel asked. 

"Yes," 

"Have you heard about Victoria and Kenzo's plane?" 

"Yes," 

"I need to find them. I don't think that grandma would take it if we lost Victoria." Renzel said softly. "It's chaos in here." 

"I will find them. Please be with the Baroness. I think she needs you more. I will call you when I get some news." 

"Thank you." 

Maverick hung up and looked at Butler Reinheart. He then nodded his head and left Stacey.. He went directly to the basement where her mother put everything in control.
