Chapter 14

Matthew and Lisa were wanting to get married on Valentine's Day. Christmas and New Year's have already passed. It was January 24, 2008. Julia was also wanting to get married on Valentine's day. There was going to be a double wedding. Lisa could tell Julia was not very happy because Nicholas was still thinking about Anastasia. Lisa's wedding dress was already made. Julia was looking for a wedding dress. Julia was hard to please.

There was a man who was dressed in a black suit. The man in the black suit walks up to George.

"I heard your son Alex got married and had a son." - The man in the black suit said to George.

"Yes, he did get married and had a son." - George told Henry.

"What do you want Henry?" - George asked.

"I just wondering why you let Alex marry a woman who was not royal blood. I thought he was going to marry my niece, Princess Mary." - Henry said.

"I never promised your brother or family that my son will marry your niece. I only say if Alex wanted to marry Princess Mary. I was not going to force my son to marry someone he did not love besides no one know if Princess Mary was still alive." - George told Henry.

Henry was not very happy about Prince Alex marrying someone who was not royal blood. Prince Alex should have waited to marry Princess Mary but there was nothing Henry could do. Henry has no control over who Prince Alex marries. Henry just hopes he could find his nephew, Prince Matthew so he can marry Catherine. Henry has been searching for his niece and nephew for many years with no luck. Henry knew in his heart that his niece and nephew were still alive and he was not going to give up looking for them.

Anastasia and her other sister Rachel were planning a wedding shower for Lisa and Julia.

"I never saw Lisa being this happy." - Anastasia told Rachel.

"I know and I hope can meet someone soon." - Rachel said.

"Oh you will Rachel." - Anastasia said.

"I just cannot believe Lisa was getting married because I never thought Lisa would ever marry. I thought I would get married before Lisa. Do you think Prince Alex might have a cousin or brother?" - Rachel asked.

"Alex was helping dad find someone for you." - Anastasia said.

Martin was on his way home when he saw a man he thought he would never see again.

"Martin I have been looking everywhere for you." - Henry said to walk up to Martin.

"You have been a very good friend with my brother and me for many years." - Henry told Martin.

"I thought you were killed with the rest of your family." - Martin told Henry.

"I thought you have been killed too Martin." - Henry said.

"Do you know what happens to my niece and nephew?" - Henry asked.

"I know where niece was but I do not know what to your nephew." - Martin said.

"Where was my niece?" - Henry asked. "I have been raising her for 18 years and I named her Anastasia." - Martin said.

Henry was happy he found his niece Mary. Henry was also happy to find out that Mary marries Prince Alex. Martin went to tell Anastasia that she was Princess Mary. Anastasia was not angry with Martin because he had a good reason for keeping the truth from her. Anastasia meets her Uncle Henry. George was also happy that things work out between Henry and him. Anastasia was wanting to find her brother Matthew. Martin believes that the maid, Sally Jackson, and her husband took Matthew.

"Do you know where they at?" - Anastasia asked.

"No, I wished I did." - Martin said.

Martin wondered if Matthew the boy Lisa was married, Prince Matthew. Martin would be happy, but also be sad for Lisa. If Matthew was the lost prince, he has to marry Princess Catherine. Martin was hoping that he can talk to Henry if Matthew was the lost prince if Henry lets him marry Lisa. Martin knew was going to have a challenge because Henry was hard-headed.

"Henry what if Prince Matthew was in love with someone else? Were you going force him to marry a woman he does love?" - Martin asked Henry.

"Why were you asking me this?" - Henry asked.

"I am asking this because I think the boy, my daughter was married was Prince Matthew." - Martin said.

"Well, if that's true your daughter cannot marry this boy. Do not worry my son Adam was not promised to anyone she can marry him." - Henry told Martin.

Martin was upset and did not understand why Henry was being unreasonable. Henry's son Adam could marry Catherine but Adam did not like Catherine.
