Chapter 1487 A Dangerous Beauty

”Your highness, what’s wrong with you today? Why do you look so out of it?”

Minister Abdali spoke for everyone.

They had also noticed his highness’s strangeness.

’Could it be that his highness is getting the shivers before his big day? Was he anxious about the Coronation ceremony?’

–Silence–

The entire room fell into a solemn state of quietness.

The sounds of papers and documents being turned over, stopped.

Those taking sips of tea also stopped.

Many paused on their feet, while others leaned forward in their seats instead.

Now, everyone was looking at Gregory squarely.

What could be troubling his royal highness?

”Your highness, please speak. Tell us what’s on your mind.”

”Uncles...”

Gregory swept his uncertain gaze past the gathering of men.

”Uncles... Maybe I’m overthinking things... But I fear that my coronation might not be as peaceful as we hope.”

”Are you talking about Duke Cletus? Impossible! It’s impossible for him to make it over here on time even if he wanted to.” Someone added, and many also nodded in agreement.

Abdali tapped the corners of his chin thoughtfully. “Everyone, I think his highness might have a reason to worry. After all, even if Cletus isn’t the problem, let’s not forget that some other sneaky people are also vying for the throne.”

Everyone looked at each other tactfully.

Of course they knew who Abdali was talking about.

Duchess Camila, that over-ambitious woman, might try pulling a disposable act during these next few days, or even on the violation day itself.

They wouldn’t put it past the woman to openly contend against her cousin-nephew and kill him publicly.

.

These 2 seemed addicted to killing, so much that they would act out cheating scenes on a regular.

Sometimes, the husband would invite young ladies over just to watch his wife boil in jealousy, so much so that she would kill the seductress there and then.

But many times, those who came in were innocent, thinking they would be made or anything of that nature.

Likewise, Camila would invite handsome paupers too.

All in all, Camila was a dangerous woman that even they had to thread along on thin ice when dealing with her.

She and her husband had powerful hidden forces not just in Titarian but in a few other Zohl empires too.

Who didn’t know that her husband’s older brother had willingly married a princess from another empire?

The man left Titarian and headed to one of the nearby empires to marry in for good.

And while there, he managed to kick off the Crown Prince of that said empire, uprooting himself as monarch.

Such a thing was hard to accomplish. But with the princess so in love with him, she used everything in her power to put him on the throne, hoping he would rule beside her as queen.

But this was where she miscalculated.

Many said she died in the cold palace during childbirth, while others said she was poisoned by her beloved instead.

In the end, a man from Titarian became a monarch for another empire.

And once more, to further secure his stay there, he married countless women from many powerful families.

One should never underestimate the forces behind Camila’s husband.

.

Everyone’s face turned grim, thinking of the psychotic couple coming after his highness’ throne.

”Your highness. During these next few days, I propose you make sure all food and drinks are tested before taking them in!”

”Yes! Minister Abdali is right. You will also need to have more guards by your side. We can’t leave your survival to luck!!”

They knew his highness was a fellow with immense luck. But who could say whether his luck would run out when the crazy duo attacked?

They did make counter-plans against the duo.

But now that Gregory had brought it up again, they also felt overly worried.

Good heavens! The couple won’t execute his highness in public, would they?
