Princess Dinah wiped her tears hurriedly when she heard several people coming closer to the prince's bedroom! She realized that she caught the guards' attention when she sobbed so hard!

They must not find me here!!!

She thought and tore one of the detailed facial sketches of the woman. She rapidly placed the sketchbooks neatly on the table and escaped the bedroom using the secret passage. When she reached her bedroom, she lie down on her bed and continue crying.

The next day, she ordered several trustworthy people to secretly find out the identity of the woman in the sketch, locate where she lives, and bring the woman to her! A few days later, she became so angry and extremely disappointed because they could not find any information about the woman! It seems that the woman is not existing but the princess has another belief...

The two princes are so crazy about her! They even carefully hid that slut!!!

She angrily threw an antique vase at her useless people and declared, "I will give you until tomorrow night to find that woman and bring her to me!!! If you fail again, I will kill all of you!!! Now, get out of my sight!!!"

"Yes, Princess!" They uniformly replied and left the room like ghosts.

Next, she ordered her maid to let the imperial physician enter and check her fertility on that day.

"Great news, Your Highness! Today marks the beginning of your fertility period! There is a very high likelihood of pregnancy if Your Highness and His Highness will be intimate tonight or the few succeeding days." The imperial physician told her the good news excitedly.

"Great!" She smiled and motioned to her maid to reward the physician handsomely.

When she is already alone, she thought of the situation and planned her next move...

He may never learn to love me or even treat me nicely but I have an important duty! I need to produce an imperial heir for the empire! I and my maiden family must gain more power, wealth, and influence! I have to stabilize my position as a princess and possibly future Empress! I no longer have a choice! I must become fearless! There is only one way to gain all of it! I must seize the moment!

She thought of Prince Andrew and his blatant cold behavior towards her... All the negative thoughts and painful memories fueled the anger, pain, jealousy, and insecurity inside her heart and soon, it becomes severe desperation that leads to serious and irreversible downfall...

Prince Andrew went back to his mansion in the middle of the night. The surrounding seems very quiet and devoid of any presence but he could detect that the hidden guards are alert and just nearby. He went straight to his bedroom and immediately frowned when he detected another faint scent inside his bedroom! His tipsy mind immediately cleared up as he suddenly realized something! Someone secretly entered his bedroom and the faint scent that was left behind betrayed the identity of the person who was bold and stupid enough to cross the line and enter his territory!

He knows that his guards would never dare sell him out and the annoying woman cannot beat the guards so there is only one way for her to successfully enter his bedroom without being detected. He smirked when he checked the hidden passage that connects his bedroom to the other places inside his mansion. The secret passage also serves as a secret entrance and exit of the mansion. He could smell the same lingering scent from the secret tunnel which proves his theory! Of all the people, he never thought that the annoying woman would discover the secret of the mansion but regardless, his mouth curves in excitement when he realized that the time has come to activate the numerous fatal traps that he installed a few months ago for added security purposes. Now that some outsider discovers the existence of the secret tunnel, tonight is the perfect night to activate all of it and he did!

When he was done, he returned to his bedroom and scanned the surrounding for any abnormality. He immediately noticed that his stack of sketchbooks are not arranged according to his usual arrangement! He carefully checked every page of every sketchbook and his blood boiled when he saw that one of the facial sketches was abruptly torn! His aura plummeted to several degrees colder while his dark grey eyes became fiercer when his teeth and hands clenched so hard involuntarily!

Does she think she is untouchable?

He smiled crookedly as he thought of the most appropriate method to punish the woman severely! He is in the middle of his thoughts when one of his trusted guards said that the sobering soup is ready. He recalled that he asked a servant to prepare him a sobering soup before he entered his courtyard because he is not planning to sleep that night. His nightmares are getting worse so he will just do his newly assigned task earlier. He received the soup from a male servant and was about to taste it when he detected a very faint and weird scent from the soup...
