At the end of January they both decided to return to Surrey, after 2 weeks at Mason's house both decided it was time to return to the residence, the butler in charge of the residence arranged for the workmen to remove Marcus's things and leave them in his room, without moving anything, the door to the room was closed in the hope that it would be opened again.
While living in Mason's house, the two informed the Queen of their intentions to marry formally in England, which made Queen Elizabeth quite happy as she wanted them to marry before she passed away to make sure of their marriage. Together with the advisors at Buckinham Palace, they agreed that the engagement would be announced on February 14 (two days after the World Cup final and Valentine's Day) and the wedding would take place on July 25, the same day as their one-year anniversary of their marriage in New Zealand.
Mason flew to the United Arab Emirates in early February as the Club World Cup Final was to be played there, and it was agreed that you would arrive in the last days of the tournament as Chelsea would play the semi-final directly on 9 February.
On the 5th of February you were in New York when you received a call from your lawyer, who had flown to New Zealand the previous days without warning you, telling you that one of the teachers at the kindergarten where Marcus was attending had called the social worker in charge of the case to make a report of domestic violence against the father of the child, who had temporary custody for 6 months on a probationary basis.
-I know my call is sudden princess, but I just got out of court, I know I didn't inform you of anything, but I preferred to inform you of something concrete, the judge has just removed Marcus from his father's care, with no options to ask for it again, besides he asked me if the little boy could return to your care, signing the adoption papers, and as I know that both you and Mr. Mount were willing to fight for the little boy, I informed you that the little boy could return to England, but now I need you to take a flight to New Zealand to take Marcus home, from where he should never have been taken out.
Listening to your lawyer left you in shock, you honestly didn't expect Marcus to come back to you so quickly, to be 100% honest, you weren't even sure that little one would come back to you.
As fast as possible you took the flight to New Zealand, which has been the longest flight you have ever felt in your whole existence, it was the longest 13 hours of your life, when you arrived in New Zealand at approximately 6am, your lawyer was waiting to take you to the taihape court, where you arrived at approximately 9.30am, where the social worker was waiting for you, you quickly went to the judge, who was waiting for you to hand over the adoption certificate.
"HRH Princess Primrose Diana Gia Mountbatten-Windsor, do you swear before the Court of Taihape that you will resume your responsibilities for the minor Marcus Daniel Alexander Mount, who will officially pass into the Mountbatten-Windsor Mount family through the adoption process," read the judge.
"I do swear" - you said together with your lawyer. "As I see that you are not accompanied by your husband, Mason Tony Mount, and as I am aware that you are coming from England, the adoption papers will be sent to the New Zealand house High Commission, where you will have 2 weeks to sign them, starting today 7th February 2022, I remind you that at the time of signing the adoption papers, you will be able to make the change of names and surname, Without further ado, the Taihape Family Court makes official the adoption process of Marcus Daniel Alexander Mountbbatten-Windsor to his future parents, his mother, HRH Princess Diana Princess Primrose Diana Gia Mountbbatten-Windsor of England and his father, Mason Tony Mount.
With that, the judge left the courtroom and you sat down next to your lawyer, not believing what had just happened. In 36 hours you flew to New Zealand and got Marcus back, without being able to tell anyone in your family, not to mention Mason, who was in the Arab Emirates.
"I know we both didn't expect it to happen so soon, let alone in this way, but at least now the little prince will be back with you in England.
"Thank you so much!" you said as you gave your lawyer a hug. "After so many days of suffering, we have Marcus back with us definitely, but first we have to make a stop in Abu Dhabi to surprise Mason" you said as you saw the caseworker come in with Marcus in her arms, who on seeing you just wanted to be put down to run into your arms, to which the caseworker agreed and put him down, only for the little boy to run into the arms of a princess who was crying to see her son again.
"Hello my love, how are you?" you asked the little boy as you fixed his hair. "Mommy, why are you crying?" asked Marcus innocently. "They are tears of happiness baby" you replied "what happened to your forehead my love? You asked him when you noticed the giant patch on his forehead. "Bad man hurt me" replied the little boy as he played with your necklace "Will I have to go back to the bad man mommy?" he asked. "No sweetie, now you will go with me and you will not go back to the bad man" you replied as you settled him in your arms. "Daddy?" asked the little boy as he was looking for Mason with his eyes. "Do you want to see daddy?" Marcus nodded at the question. "Let's go see daddy," you said as you grabbed the bag the social worker handed you and left the courthouse with your lawyer to catch the flight to Abu Dhabi.
