"Isolde went to great lengths to obtain such a high-grade imitation poison and kept it hidden from everyone. She must have a reason she doesn't dare let Bruce know the truth, at least not yet."Jemima forced herself to calm down as her thoughts raced. "This is my opportunity. Then I'll make sure that even if she speaks out in the future, no one will believe her."Lucas laughed when he heard that. "I've heard Isolde comes from an ordinary background. A woman like her has almost nothing, aside from the bit of favor she happened to win from Bruce. Compete with you? She'll be crushed until there's nothing left."Jemima, I'll sit back and watch you trample her completely. I'll be waiting to raise a glass at your wedding to the Prince."…Ever since the bathroom incident, Isolde had hardly left Bruce's side. She attended to him personally and with meticulous care.She prepared light meals tailored to his taste, helped him change into comfortable clothes, and pushed his wheelchair into

Those words sent a sharp wave of discomfort through Isolde.Sunbathing was only the beginning. Jemima would soon make increasingly outrageous demands, pushing her step by step to give up Bruce.Isolde drew a slow breath and forced down the turmoil rising in her chest.In just one more day, Bruce would take the third dose of medicine. Once he became "paralyzed," her plan would succeed. The endurance, the pretense, the constant strain would finally end.It was only one day of enduring Jemima's threats.Isolde weighed the pros and cons with deliberate calm. 'One day. Just a single afternoon. Jemima is not some enchantress. She can't possibly do much.'For now, compromise was both the best and the only option. She met Jemima's gaze and gave the slightest nod. "Fine. As you wish."…Isolde carried the packed meal back to the hospital room, her thoughts still unsettled by the agreement she had just made.Bruce leaned against the headboard, his eyes sharp as they traveled from her fa

"Have you seen clearly now? Bruce isn't interested in you. He's not a man you can covet. Stop wasting your time and go back to your country to study your poisons," Isolde said.Jemima glared at Isolde as if she wanted to tear her apart, teeth grinding. "No wonder you agreed so readily. You expected him to react like that and deliberately stood by while I made a fool of myself?"Isolde smiled mockingly. "Of course. What kind of man is my husband? Women throw themselves at him every day. I've seen plenty who are more beautiful and far more calculating than Miss Quinn."She paused, her voice edged with cold certainty. "But he never spares them a second glance. He's a devoted man. When he loves, he loves only one person. Unfortunately, that person isn't you and never will be."The words struck like poison-tipped needles, landing with cruel precision on Jemima's deepest wound.Jemima's face darkened at once. Her chest rose and fell in sharp, furious breaths. "Isolde, don't celebrate to

At the same time, Daniel's anxious voice sounded from outside. "Prince, are you asleep? I'm sorry to disturb your rest, but I have something very urgent to discuss with you…"Bruce lifted his gaze to Spencer.Spencer sprang up from the sofa and opened the door at once.Daniel rushed in, his face tight with worry and his forehead slick with sweat. "Prince, I'm truly sorry, but I have no other choice. I can't find anyone else. Isolde…"About an hour ago, she suddenly ran out in a hurry, and she still hasn't come back! I've called dozens of times, and she won't answer. She's never like this. Even if she goes out, she always tells me first. I'm worried about her. I'm afraid something may have happened."Bruce's brows drew together at once, and the air around him turned sharply cold. "You're saying Isolde went out?"Wasn't she supposed to be resting in her room? How could she leave without a word and ignore her phone?"Spencer." Bruce's voice was stern and heavy."Yes. I'll check im

Bruce's entire body went rigid. The arm around her tightened on instinct. Shock lasted only a beat before he answered her kiss, deeper and harder.Isolde let out a broken moan.One hand slid eagerly into the collar of his shirt and fumbled against his warm skin. Her fingers were ice-cold from gripping frost too long.The chill shot through him and made him shudder. Clarity snapped back into place. He jerked his eyes open and caught her restless hand. His breath came fast and rough."Isolde, don't do this…" His voice strained under fierce restraint. "I'll take you to the hospital.""What hospital? Are you even a man?" Isolde cried Tears mixed with sweat and ran down her face. Her burning lips searched clumsily along his neck and collarbone for relief. "I said I want you. I want you right now…"His breathing turned ragged. He forced the words out through clenched teeth. "You're not thinking clearly.""Then I'm not. If I were calm, how would I dare want you? I've craved your body
