"Now, that brother said so. I understand why sister is so against it!" said brother Ishak.
"But I don't think Prince William is that kind of a person," said Matthew.
Brother Cedric gently patted Matthew's head, "Let's talk to Henry, I'm sure he'll come up with a good plan." Then he looked at sister, "But Katrina, I will make sure you will live a happy life in future, I don't care what it takes."

[At night after having dinner Davinia, Meitry, Alex, Matthew sitting together.]
"What do you guys think is going to happen?" asked Matthew.
"I don't know," replied Meitry. "Do you guys think sister will really call off the wedding?"
"But everyone, if she does so; then what will happen?" asked Alex.
"She's been engaged to Prince William for 2 years. Now if anyone calls off the wedding nothing will really happen to Prince William, after all he is the Crown Prince. Any Lady from the prestigious family would still agree to marry her. But sister Katrina,
......." I was shocked hearing my own words. And so was everyone else.
"Can we really not do anything about it?" asked Alex.
"But what can we even do? It's not like we are close to the second Prince and we can make him understand. Moreover we don't even know why is he against this marriage!" said Meitry. She looked totally frustrated pressing her finger on her forehead.
"But.... I do!" I said while realising I really do.
"What! How do you know?" asked Meitry.
"Prince Liam told me last time," I replied.
"What did he say?" excitedly asked Matthew.
"He said something like, Prince Noel had some problem with sister's not being the legitimate daughter," I said although I knew it from Prince Noel himself, but I couldn't tell them about it.
"Is that so! Then what can we do about it?" asked Alex.
"We need to talk to him, who is he to be against it if Crown Prince himself has no problem?" aggressively said Matthew.
"But how will we speak to him?" asked Alex, "it's not like we are close to him. We have never even spoke to him!"
"We can't speak to him, but Prince Liam can!" said Meitry.
"So you mean, we have to tell Prince Liam to make Prince Noel understand that he shouldn't be against this marriage?" asked Matthew.
"But haven't they already would have talk to him about it?" asked Alex.
"What I think is, there's no need for Prince Noel to give validation, but Crown Prince just wants him to attend the wedding," I said.
"So we just need Prince Liam to make sure Prince Noel will come for the wedding, for whatever reason," said Meitry.
"Exactly," I replied.
"So shall we speak to him tomorrow?" asked Matthew.
"We should, I'll send him a letter telling him, we would like to meet him tomorrow," I said.
"Yes, you do so. But would it be appropriate for us to go with you? I think you should meet him alone," said Meitry.
"No! We all need to work together this time. And I won't be able to do this alone either!"
