Favored Empress Brings Chaos and Destruction (Book 2)

Page 233

Prince Andrew secretly clenched his hands under the table while he is observing the wedding ceremony. He could not help it because the wedding ceremony is thoroughly reminding him of his nightmares! The bride seems to match perfectly with his beloved woman while the groom matches to the faceless man in his bad dreams! It was like he is dreaming while awake! The pain in his heart and the damage in his soul are pushing his chaotic mind to its limit!

He is tempted to stand up and make a scene countless times but he would stop himself before it is too late! His face remained expressionless but his clenched hands that are hidden below the table are shaking uncontrollably! He wants to stop the ceremony, approach her and forcefully remove the wedding veil so he could see for himself whether she is his beloved woman or not but he cannot do it! If he is wrong then he would irreversibly destroy the couple's wedding moments that they are probably looking forward to and consequently, he would anger his Imperial Father and make himself the new talk of the town for nothing! So much is at stake for something so uncertain!

On the other hand, Prince Anders has been silent the whole time. He silently stared at the bride and for some reason, he feels so sad, lonely, and empty as she is doing her part for the wedding ceremony... At that moment, he felt like he is losing something or someone very important! He thought that this is probably the result of his dreamless sleep... The extreme worry, fear, and stress are making him hallucinate and associate the general's daughter with his beloved woman! Just like he is helpless that his beautiful dreams suddenly stop... Now, he is also helplessly watching the wedding ceremony with gritted teeth!

The unexplained throbbing of his heart and the chaos in his soul are driving him insane! The longer he stares, the greater his desire to interrupt the ceremony and forcefully remove her wedding veil to check whether his instinct is correct or wrong! Several times, he is tempted to stop it but he cannot do it! He fears that he is wrong! He fears destroying the couple's perfect moment, angering his Imperial Father, and making himself the new laughingstock for nothing! It is a big risk for something so dim and so slim!

In the end, the wedding ceremony was successfully done. The bride and groom immediately enter their wedding chamber after they finished all the formalities. When the newlyweds are already out of sight, Prince Andrew decided to get the emperor's approval to leave earlier! He felt so sick and he could not stay any longer! He was about to ask his Imperial Father's permission when he heard someone scream!

Princess Lizbeth screamed in distress when Prince Anders suddenly coughed up too much blood! When the latter removed his hand from his mouth to check, it was filled with fresh blood dripping on the floor! He coughed up even more and his fresh red blood was unceremoniously sprayed onto the people seated close to him! This time, his nose is dripping with so much blood! Soon, his face became sickly pale and suddenly, the light from his eyes is rapidly fading until it went dark!

Prince Andrew was utterly shocked when he saw that his brother suddenly collapsed! He wants to think that his brother is just faking it like the last time but he knew and he could feel that it is not the case! His brother's life is truly in danger!!!

"Imperial Father, please allow me to take Imperial Brother to the imperial palace to be checked by the imperial physicians and properly taken care of!" Prince Andrew hurriedly asked for the emperor's approval. He is very anxious as he could feel his brother's essence slowly fading away! Other people might not be aware of the gravity of the situation but he knows that his brother might die anytime soon if he is left untreated!

Emperor Claudius immediately gave his approval knowing that the two brothers have been very close and affectionate to each other since young.

Prince Andrew did not waste any time. He immediately placed his brother's arm around his shoulder and supported his brother's body using the other arm. He hurriedly left the General's Mansion to go to his secret hideout using teleport when no one is watching! He lied to his Imperial Father because the imperial physicians cannot save his brother! His brother's injury is not physical! It started with a severe mental and emotional wound that is too great it destabilized his brother's spiritual essence! Only he can stabilize it again and save his dying brother!

Inside the secret hideout, Prince Andrew hurriedly placed his weak brother on the carpeted floor. Next, he used one of the unmastered abilities of Forbidden Arts, the ability to heal! He knows that by using an unmastered ability, he is endangering himself too but he could not just let his brother die!
