Selena was stunned for a moment.

But soon, she would understand exactly what I meant.

Christine had led 30,000 soldiers to attack the kingdom of Eldoria, but she was completely defeated by an army of only 10,000.

Not only did she lose 5,000 elite soldiers, but she had nearly been shot through the heart and captured as a prisoner.

    A faint, unfamiliar fragrance drifted into my nose.It wasn't the scent that belonged to Selena.In an instant, I lifted my wedding veil."Christine. I knew it was you."Standing before me was Christine, dressed in a white wedding gown. Seeing that I had recognized her so quickly, the joy in her eyes was impossible to hide.She hurriedly closed the door behind her and grabbed my hand."Jonathan, come with me right now."I forcefully pulled my hand away."Christine, have you lost your mind? Today is my wedding with Princess Selena. If I call for the guards, your life will be over in an instant!"My words didn't affect her at all. She continued looking at me with the same deep affection she had always shown."Jonathan, you don't need to be afraid of her. Since I was able to come here, I already have a way to get you out safely. I've made arrangements with people from Eldoria. They're waiting outside the city to receive us."Their king has promised that once I arrive in Eldoria

    Selena was stunned for a moment.But soon, she would understand exactly what I meant.Half a month later, an urgent report arrived from the front lines.Christine had led 30,000 soldiers to attack the kingdom of Eldoria, but she was completely defeated by an army of only 10,000.Not only did she lose 5,000 elite soldiers, but she had nearly been shot through the heart and captured as a prisoner.Rumor had it that she had begged Salvador to give up one city in exchange for sparing her life.On the day she returned to the capital to report, Salvador's face was dark with anger.Giving away a city had not only humiliated him but also destroyed the reputation her ancestors had built over generations of military achievements."Your Majesty, the enemy used a cunning scheme. I was careless and fell into their trap. Please grant me another 20,000 soldiers. I swear I will capture every city in Eldoria."Salvador threw the report in his hand directly at her. He was so furious he nearly p

    "Everyone in the city knows that we've been engaged since childhood. No matter how powerful Princess Selena is, she has no right to interfere in this matter. You don't need to worry about my future. I've made twelve great contributions to the kingdom. His Majesty would never punish me too harshly."As she spoke, Christine's face was filled with unwavering confidence.The palace guards quickly surrounded her.Selena was so furious that she actually laughed."Christine, let go of my prince consort. Otherwise, don't blame me for what happens next."I struggled desperately, but Christine only tightened her grip around my wrist."Jonathan is mine. Not even you can change that, Princess Selena."I looked at her coldly."Christine, do you really think you're some legendary beauty everyone would die for? Right now, I'm Her Highness's prince consort. What makes you think I would willingly become your husband?"After I finished speaking, I tried to pull my hand away.But Christine held

    The expressions of everyone present changed, yet Nathan continued speaking to me as though he were completely unaware."Jonathan, I've given up my place for you. Are you happy now? From now on, one of us will become Her Highness's prince consort, while the other will become the husband of a female general. Together, we'll make a powerful team. I'm sure even Father will be proud of us."I looked at him strangely."Nathan, have you lost your mind?"The excitement on Nathan's face instantly froze.Selena laughed coldly."Do you take me for some beggar who picks through scraps? A man who has already been used by someone else actually dares to dream of becoming my prince consort?"The ministers around us immediately burst into laughter."Today has truly been entertaining. I never thought the Prime Minister would have such a shameless illegitimate son. The moment he heard Princess Selena was dying, he rushed to seduce his own sister-in-law. Now that the princess has recovered, he can

    A cold, dangerous look appeared in Selena's eyes.She was about to speak when I dismounted from my horse."General Smith is right. However..."Before the joy in her eyes could appear, I abruptly turned the conversation around, my voice taking on a hint of cold amusement."Didn't you personally beg me that day to give up our marriage and let Nathan take my place? Yet today, in front of Her Highness, you're bringing up our past again. What exactly are you trying to achieve?"Christine hurriedly stood up. Her eyes were bloodshot as she looked at me, filled with both panic and hurt."Jonathan, we already agreed that..."She stopped herself before finishing the sentence.After all, revealing the truth now would be treason against the king, Salvador Winchester.I raised an eyebrow, and the smile on my lips grew even colder."Agreed on what? That you would have me replace Nathan and marry Her Highness so I could be buried with her? That I should hold my breath inside a sealed tomb f

    Christine's heart jolted violently.Her eyes soon found me. Mounted on my horse, I wore a metal mask and white wedding attire, looking every bit like someone who belonged above the mortal world.His expression twisted with disbelief and resentment.From where I sat, I quietly took in the hatred and unwillingness in Nathan's eyes.Christine stood frozen in place, unable to move, until the leading guard's furious voice rang out."General Smith, step aside. Do stand in the way of Her Highness and her prince consort's wedding ceremony!"Inside the carriage, Selena had rosy cheeks and bright, lively eyes. There was no trace of someone who was supposedly on the verge of death.Unable to believe what she was seeing, Christine murmured the question in her heart out loud."Why... is the princess still alive?"The moment those words left her mouth, everyone around her changed expressions.The guards immediately shouted."How dare you! Who gave you the right to question Her Highness's
