Two Days Later – Trip To NassauIt was obvious that Irene wished to have herself to blame. It had been over forty-eight hours that the Prince gave her a mandate to return, but she cared less, dared him. Meanwhile, the King and Queen were worried about leaving the children alone without their mother.“I won't be long, my father. I will see her when I get to Nassau,” he promised.“What could be keeping her for so long?” The Queen demanded.“She wished to prepare a party that was out of this world for Aurora in two years, and she must get the Prince to attend,” the Prince mocked.His parents laughed softly, and the King inquired, “I thought she paid her parents a visit.”“Not in the least.”“I see. Safe trip, Son.”“Safe travels,” the parents wished simultaneously.“Thank you, my father. Thank you, my mother,” he appreciated, and bowed. Afterward, he left with his team, boarded the plane with his knight. The trip was smooth, and they arrived after ten hours. At NassauAfter informing his

At Irene's Hotel RoomIt had been two hours after she left the Spellcaster, and had anxiously waited for her ex-husband's call. When none came, she initiated it by dialing his number, to her disappointment, her call was busied.“Why has he not called me? Despite the spell, he still rejected my calls,” she murmured bitterly. Now, she was distressed, and gave her visit to the Spellcaster a thought, “I saw the Prince from the magic pot, and he was under a spell.” After a while, she resolved to pay him a visit.At Horton De Spellcaster's House.Irene was lucky to get his attention at once when she visited earlier. Now, she had to join the waiting clients and miracle seekers. Despite her position as the Princess of a kingdom, she was not ashamed to be seen in such a place. Indeed, her quest for superiority over Mirabel, had blindfolded her sense of dignity.“After all, no one is aware of my identity,” she encouraged herself. After waiting for a long time, it was her turn to see the Spellca

In the PalaceMirabel closed for the day, after her friends left and returned home. To her surprised, the Princesses were moody, and their grandparents did not notice it.“What is the matter, Aurora and Julie?”“Welcome back, Princess Mirabel,” they greeted.“Thank you. Where are grandma and grandpa?”“They are in the bedroom.”“That is good. What is troubling you?”“My dad called grandpa a while ago, and announced that he was at the airport,” Aurora said.“That is good news. Ain't you happy that he is coming back?”“We are. But he is coming back with our mom.”“And so what if he comes back with your mom?”“She would lock us up in the house, like flowers in the attic,” Julie explained, and Aurora added, “We will not go to the farm anymore.”“Or visit our grandparents.”“Is your dad aware of that?”“Yes, and she would pick on him if he wished to take us out to visit you, or grandma.”“It's okay. Your dad would do something about that when he comes back.”“Thank you, Princess.”“Come to

She landed at her grandmother's chamber when she got to the palace, and sank into the couch.“What is the matter, Mirabel?” Phoebe asked with trepidation, when she saw the deep despondency in her eyes.“Grandma, I'm losing my mind. Alfred fixed our wedding date for tomorrow. What do I do?”Grandma Phoebe became euphoric at once, and responded, “Wow! I have prayed for this moment. Congratulations.”Mirabel was not surprised at her reaction, but she gave her a questioning look. Then, her grandmother continued, “Go to your chamber, and do nothing but take a beauty rest. Leave the planning for us.”“Grandma, do you consent that I should marry a stranger?”“Yes. He is no more a stranger to me. Tell me, do you wish to let him go?”Mirabel showed dread as though she had lost him already, and shook her head in disapproval, “No, grandma. I don't wish to let him go.”“Neither do I nor any member of our family.” All the same, to get things straight, she asked, “Do I take that to mean that you

On the other hand, Irene was able to recognize her. She had returned to her parents a few days after fighting with the Spellcaster, and was coincidentally at the court premises. Her father was unhappy with her because, she wished to strain the cordial relationship that he enjoyed with King Raphael Churchill VII. He asked her to get her husband back, or prepare to be disowned. Meanwhile, it was a slap in the King's face that his daughter was the first to be divorced in the lineage of the Churchill.In the meantime, the Registrar had given her an appointment for noon that day. He expected that he would be free after the second marriage, until the King upturned their plans. As planned, she was in the court. To her surprise, she saw a familiar procession, and heard a familiar tune. It was the same procession that brought the Prince to the court fifteen years ago when they got married.“What is going on? Is the Prince giving our daughter out for marriage?” She asked herself in astonishment
