Author: Your Candy
She glanced first at Nestor, who focused on the instruments, then at Isolde's pale face.

The assistant looked conflicted and hesitant, as if she wanted to speak but held back.

Nestor frowned. "What is it? Don't you see she's in the middle of treatment?"

The assistant bit her lip and steeled herself. "Dr. Mills, I'm sorry, but… there's a message. Her Highness instructed that it must be delivered to Ms. Vancrest immediately."

Isolde's heart skipped a beat. She gritted her teeth, forcing hersel

  • Marrying My Ex-Fiancé's Cousin   Chapter 385

    The Ferris wheel was enclosed, private, and cramped. As it rose, it felt cut off from the world, creating a sense of intimacy and emotional ambiguity, a romantic sanctuary cherished by countless couples.Bruce followed the direction of her finger and looked over. The steel structure, wrapped in colored lights, reflected a cold sheen under the sunlight.Irritation nearly spilled from his eyes, yet he remained rational. His thin lips pressed into a hard, cold line.He said nothing as he stepped forward with long strides and walked toward the Ferris wheel entrance without expression.Claudia watched his back as he moved forward despite his reluctance. A flicker of complicated emotions crossed her eyes, but a stronger desire to conquer quickly overtook it.She quickened her pace and caught up, walking beside him like the most perfectly matched couple.The crowd in line parted automatically to make way for them. Curious, envious, and admiring gazes followed closely behind.However, j

    "That is… Her Highness Claudia?!""Oh my God! It really is Her Highness! Greetings, Your Highness!""Your Highness!"Exclamations rose one after another. Those who recognized her stopped in their tracks and bowed in her direction. Their demeanor was deeply respectful, their eyes filled with disbelief and delight.This was their future queen. Someone they had only admired from afar in news reports and official appearances now stood before them, casually present in an amusement park.Claudia had expected this. She removed her sunglasses with practiced elegance, revealing flawless makeup and a perfectly composed smile.She gave the surrounding crowd a light wave, her voice soft and measured. "There is no need for formalities. Today, I am not here as the Crown Princess, but as an ordinary woman, at the amusement park with the man I love, enjoying a simple date. I hope you will not treat me differently. Let us all enjoy ourselves together."She stated her purpose openly. As she spoke

"What is it? Don't you see she's in the middle of treatment?"The assistant bit her lip and steeled herself. "Dr. Mills, I'm sorry, but… there's a message. Her Highness instructed that it must be delivered to Ms. Vancrest immediately."Isolde's heart skipped a beat. She gritted her teeth, forcing herself to endure the pain in her fingers, and turned her head weakly. "What… is it?"The assistant's gaze flickered with unease as she noticed the fine beads of sweat at Isolde's temple and the faint pallor of her lips.But she could not defy Her Highness' order.She lowered her head and avoided Isolde's gaze. "Her Highness instructed me to tell you that her meeting was temporarily canceled, and now… she is with the Prince, heading to the amusement park downtown."Isolde's pupils constricted shar

    When the clock hand passed the final mark and reached the half hour, Isolde stopped almost at once.She casually tossed the already dirty cloth onto the table. Her tone turned light and cheerful, like a little bird finally off work. "Time's up. Let's go."She turned to Bruce, her voice soft and sweet as she pouted. "Hubby, I'm hungry. I want the risotto you make."Amusement deepened in Bruce's eyes until it seemed to melt."Okay," he said indulgently. "I'll make it for you."He stood, walked over to her, and bent down. With one smooth motion, he slipped an arm beneath her and lifted her horizontally with ease.The movement was natural and fluid, as if it had long been second nature.Isolde wrapped her arms around his neck and pressed her cheek to his solid chest. She did not forget to glance back at Claudia, who sat frozen, her face pale.Isolde gave her an innocent, faintly smug smile. "Your Highness, the table is clean. Enjoy your meal.""You!" Claudia's chest heaved as ange

    Footsteps gradually faded, and the kitchen fell silent.Isolde stood alone, the flush on her face slowly receding. She raised her hand and brushed her fingertips over her still slightly numb lips. Then she smiled faintly.'Ha! Ten minutes? He's my man. I won't allow that, not even for ten minutes!'…Claudia had already resumed her seat at the head of the long table. She wore a perfect smile, her posture composed and elegant, as if the earlier commotion and irritation had never occurred.She relished the thrill of snatching Bruce away from Isolde. Even if it was only ten minutes, this man had to remain with her, to belong to her in this moment.The thought of Isolde hiding in the kitchen, frustrated and flustered, only improved her mood. This morning tea had become all the more delightful."Bruce, the coffee just now—"Claudia had barely begun when a crisp, familiar female voice cut in, "The table is dirty. I will clean it for you, Your Highness."Claudia turned sharply and sa

    Since yesterday, Isolde had lain in bed, carefully sorting through every detail and time difference from the past few days.Recalling the time she had once seen Bruce return home early in the morning, she had concluded that Claudia would likely come looking for him during that same window.Thus, she had set an alarm and woken early on purpose.At the sight of her small, accusing, demanding stance, a deeper smile flickered in Bruce's eyes."I was just humoring her for a bit. Only half an hour. I didn't want to disturb your sleep," he explained patiently, his tone indulgent.Isolde did not accept that. She deliberately put on a stern expression, her tone firm and commanding. "Humoring her at all is not allowed. You're my husband. Not a single second should be spent alone with another woman."Her words were unreasonable, yet they made Bruce's chest burn. He let out a low chuckle, his chest vibrating as he failed to suppress his delight. The jealous look on her face pushed his mood t

    Isolde was a rational yet soft hearted person.Alan slowly loosened his grip and said, "Send Grandpa off properly."Isolde walked to the bedside and slowly crouched down, speaking softly. "Grandpa.""Isolde…" Cheron's voice was as faint as a mosquito's hum."Grandpa, what did you say? I can't he

    Isolde sneered, "Leave? Right now I have no power, no status, and no one to rely on. If I leave, I'll either be dragged back by Alan or ambushed by you halfway."If nothing good is going to come out of it anyway, why not flip the table and watch it all fall apart? If everyone goes down together, is

    "Ludwig! How dare you! After all the trust I placed in you, you turned out to be a traitor?" Atlas barked.Ludwig Princeton grinned smugly. "No. Atlas, the wise adapt to the times. We simply made the most sensible choice.""You! You!" Atlas' fingers shook with rage as he pointed at those who had s

    "Isolde!" Alan sounded like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. He hissed sharply, trying to mask his embarrassment with anger. "I know I was wrong. I apologized, and I am trying to make it right. Can't you stop clinging to the past?"Isolde looked at him expressionlessly. Her eyes were terrifyin
