All Chapters of The Young Prince: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

My son was stunned for a few seconds. As if realizing something, he shook his head vigorously. "No, I won't leave. I want to stay with you. Father, don't make me leave."He gripped my hand tightly, as if he wanted to let out all the tears of his life.Swallowing the blood in my mouth, I pretended to be mad. "Are you disobeying me now? Go buy the almond cookies, and we can enjoy them together once you're back."Seeing my anger, he stopped insisting. He wiped his tears and agreed. "Okay, I'll go buy them right now. Father, wait for me. You must wait for me."The moment he stepped out of the door, I shouted with my last bit of strength, "Arthur!"Facing his puzzled gaze, I explained, "I've coined you a name. From now on, you'll be called Arthur Brighton Smith. It's so you'll lead an upright and honorable life. I hope you'll always be healthy and… happy."The child showed a panicked expression. "Father..."My consciousness began to fade. I bit my lip hard and smiled through the bloo

"I'm your father from now on!" Zachary yelled as he scattered all the almond cookies on the ground and crushed them repeatedly.Seeing this, Arthur's eyes turned red immediately. He bit Zachary hard, thinking that this would make him stop.Zachary was in pain and immediately ordered the servants to lift Arthur. He pulled off the emerald pendant from his waist and stuffed it into Arthur's mouth, constantly jabbing at him. "Bastard, bite all you want!"Blood quickly stained Arthur's clothes. He struggled in pain, like a dying fish. "Mmmmm... Father... Save me..."My heart was breaking, and I was frantically hitting Zachary, trying to make him let go. "Let go of Arthur!"It was no use.I knelt again at Zachary. "You want my blood? I'll give it to you! You want to be the princess' husband? I'll give that to you too! I'll give you anything, just please don't hurt my child."Zachary could not hear me. He simply reveled in the increasing wounds around Arthur's mouth, laughing heartily.

The medicine bowl slipped from her hand and crashed to the ground, making a sharp sound.Anna pushed Zachary out of her arms and rushed out of the door like a gust of wind.Everything in my quarters was exactly as it was when she entered, only this time, she finally noticed the large patches of blood on the ground. Anna's pupils constricted abruptly, and her steps inside became even more frantic.Finally, when she saw my pale face and closed eyes, Anna felt a sharp pain in her heart. She muttered to herself, "How could this happen... I just took a few drops of blood. It's not like I cut out your heart and dismembered you. How could this happen..."With a glimmer of hope, she trembled and reached out to test my breath, but then she stepped back in disbelief.She recalled our last conversation. "Anna, please... don't. I'll die if you take more blood! Zachary isn't sick at all. He's faking it! Please believe me!"What had she done at that time?Anna disregarded my desperate struggl

I angrily slapped her restless hand away and skillfully threaded the ribbon through the copper coin with my two hands. "Believe it or not, I believe in karma."Just like how we fell in love at first sight and naturally came together amid everyone's blessings back then.After hearing my remark, Anna suddenly took the copper coin from my hand and said to me, "Nathan, if gods do exist, I wish to love you forever and grow old together with you."After saying that, the copper coin carrying her wish was thrown high up by her and securely hung at the very top of the Lovers' Tree.Our eyes were solely focused on each other, and I thought about spending my entire life with her.Back in the present day, when she reached the 700th step, a group of children was gathered around a stone monument, discussing something. When she appeared, one of the children pointed at a crooked line of words on the stone monument and asked her, "Lady, what does this say?"Anna's eyes suddenly turned red, and th

"Anna, I... I know my mistake... I just lost my head... because I love you so much... Please... forgive me... I won't do it again," Zachary pleaded desperately as he lay on the ground, gasping for breath.Anna sneered and tugged at Zachary's hair, dragging him to Arthur's bed. "You dare beg for forgiveness after hurting my son? Who do you think you are?"Before being imprisoned, the king had John examine Zachary.The final result was that Zachary was in good health and showed no signs of having been poisoned.This caused a ripple effect.The king was furious and had all the healers who had treated Zachary arrested and brought to the palace. He threatened them with the lives of their families to force them to reveal the truth.Eventually, the last healer who was taken away by Zachary informed them, "Your Majesty, I report the royal physician Doctor Greg Lumian for accepting bribes, faking Zachary's illness... and colluding with others to kill Mr. Smith!"After saying this, he kne
