"Lyon, Javier and I will get married." 

The news struck Yunyu like a thunder on clear skies. He was unprepared for that reveal. Because General Swordheart said that he would report his finding about Javier's golden circle with Javier's parents. If General Swordheart met Lyon and Layla's parents and they found out that Javier had two marriage proposals, and both proposals came from the twins...

Yunyu didn't want to think about the possibility himself. Because he was afraid that the worst could happen. 

[Are Layla and Lyon's parents already dead set about marrying Layla and Javier?]

[Pupa: Probably. The twins' parents are very good friends of Javier's parents, especially between Great King Tuskan and Master Aster Di Arlingdon. The marriage proposal has been quite the talk in Golden Camellia. The current Emperor, Emperor Gardenia II, is Javier's adapted brother and already accepted the proposal, alongside his ministers.]

[Is this more of political marriage?]

[Pupa: More or less. But you see, people in Golden Camellia and Great Arctyr think that Javier and Layla are both in love, and make a great couple. They are an official couple goal of both countries. So their marriage would bring two countries closer together. The ministers of both countries have come to that agreement and the documents about the marriage have been signed. The only thing that's left is preparing the marriage ceremony.]

[What about Lyon then?]

[Pupa: People in Great Arctyr always see Lyon as a good, handsome Crown Prince. They adore and worship him so much. But Crown Prince Lyon has always been single and alone. Though, the rumor about Lyon and Javier are in animosity have been spreading around.]

[This... Why does it feel like the world has gotten harder and harder? This world is just a simple royal romance setting, but this one is really tricky! I would rather let you put me in Ling Kai situation once more rather than threading in this mess!]

[Pupa: This world is not hard, just very tricky. You have been missing one important piece that affects the Breakmeter the whole time, but I can't tell you.]

[What? Why can't you tell me?! I can complete this world faster if you can help!]

[Pupa: Because you need to learn. And also, if you complete it too fast, this novel will be too short. Please work hard.]

Yunyu was aggrieved with Pupa who was messing around with him. What important piece he missed? He already unlocked the hidden plot and knew about everything. He had nothing left to discover. But he had an idea, well, an emergency plan. 

Lyon tried to pacify Layla by hugging her gently, and said, "Do not act rashly. We are in this together, Layla."

Layla hugged her brother back, but she didn't have much optimism in her, "I don't want to shame the Great Arctyr. If I have to run away and become a commoner, as long as Great Arctyr can retain its dignity..."

"No, think about it this way," Lyon tried to knock some sense in Layla, it was clear that Layla was unstable now, "If you run away like this while our parents are in Golden Camellia, it will bring big shame to Great Arctyr! They are discussing your marriage! What would they think if the soon to be bride eloped with another man, even go as far as getting pregnant?"

Lyon's words seemed to have knocked some sense into Layla's head. He was right, she was going to be a bride for Javier soon, but if she eloped with her loved one because of pregnancy...

"W—What should I do, brother?" Layla asked desperately. She was in a tight spot right now. All she could think was to preserve the baby no matter what, even if her parents and Aunt Mariette wanted it dead, "Lyon, please help me. I don't know what to do!"
