All Chapters of I Gave Up On Both of Them: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

”I am the Crown Prince’s consort. How dare you lay a hand on me… Ah!”The sharp blade sliced across my cheek. Beads of blood trickled down my neck.Bayram and Rio closed in on me step by step. The blade was about to pierce my throat.Messengers from the palace arrived.A loud voice rang out. “I have come by the Crown Prince’s command to deliver Ms. Savoy’s wedding gown.”When the butler, Mr. Smith, showed up, it sent everyone present into a panic. They all bowed in fear.“Could Reverie Savoy truly be the Crown Prince’s consort? The palace even personally sent someone.”“Are you crazy? How could His Majesty allow a spy from an enemy nation to marry the Crown Prince!”“Enough talk! Can’t you see how dark the Crown Prince’s expression has turned!”...I paid no heed to their speculation and only thought of escaping the nonsensical situation as swiftly as possible.After all, the Crown Prince had searched the entire realm for the finest embroiderers to create this wedding gown f

Just as Bayram was about to lose his temper, he turned pale at the sight of the newcomer.“Your Highness, how could it be you?”Crown Prince Wesley’s voice grew heavy. “If I hadn’t come, how would I have known that my consort-to-be was about to be humiliated to death by you lot?!”Bayram trembled from head to toe. Rio broke out in a cold sweat.But when he glanced at me, Bayram suddenly realized something and exclaimed, “This is all a misunderstanding, Your Highness! This woman is a spy from the enemy nation. She is not the daughter of the late Lord Savoy.”Rio let out a sigh of relief and looked at me smugly.I pressed my hand against the wound that would not stop bleeding. While overcome with fear, I shrank back into Wesley’s embrace, letting big tears fall onto his collar.“Indeed, Your Highness. This woman is a spy. The prince and I were just only interrogating her.“How could someone like this be the one Your Highness intends to marry?”They likely did not know that Wesle

The plum blossom brand was unique to the royal family of the enemy nation.Clearly, this woman was merely an unloved member of the royal family.As cautious as Bayram was, he could not possibly be unaware of this woman’s true identity. Unless…Pointing at the spy, he ordered my execution.Bayram, your time has come!The hall erupted in an instant. Ministers who had long harbored resentment toward Crown Prince Wesley’s faction leaped to their feet.“Your Majesty, this woman has beguiled the Crown Prince Wesley. Her crime deserves execution!“Crown Prince Wesley has been beguiled by her beauty. Your Majesty, please think this through. The heir to the throne must not be such a foolish man!“Your Majesty, now that Ms. Savoy has been found, we implore you to make a decision. To whom should the military authority held by Lord Savoy be transferred?”...Many in the hall offered their counsel, yet not a single one saw the situation clearly.Instead, they were pressuring the King to

As far as he could recall, both he and Rio had worked their way up to where they were through their own efforts. So why, then, did he poison Wesley? “Reverie, do you remember when we first met? Back then, I was just part of a lowly collateral branch. You were the one who told me that if I wanted something, I had to learn to fight for it myself.” “Once I thought I had enough power to marry you, a royal decree was issued, and you became the King’s handpicked consort to the Crown Prince Wesley. I hated it! How dare they just snatch you away from me like that? So, I kept building my power, but then, you were captured by the enemy nation!“Thank Heavens for they protected you, and you returned safely. But you came back with Rio. You said you found him among the dead. Because of that, as soon as Rio woke up, he immediately asked for your hand in marriage. I was one step too late again.” As he spoke, Bayram walked toward me with a look of infatuation, paying no heed to his bleeding wou

“Do you really think this would stop the enemy from advancing? The area thirty miles outside the city is swarming with enemy troops. You’re bound to lose!”Bayram, clutching at his last shred of hope, roared in fury, looking as though he had lost his mind.“Is that so?!”A familiar voice rang out from the crowd. A majestic warhorse galloped forward, and the rider’s face gradually came into view.It was Wesley. He was awake!“The garrison outside the city has been completely wiped out. Bayram, you have completely lost!”Wesley leaped from his horse, walked up to me, and stared coldly at him.“This can’t be! This can’t be! You were poisoned with the Week Powder. How could you possibly still be alive?! It was you, Rio! Why did you betray me? Don’t you know that this Reverie standing before you is a fake?”Rio pulled out a human-faced mask and tossed it at his feet.“And still, you tried to deceive me! I always thought of our childhood friendship, so when you proposed a fair conte
