Time Travelling: My Love from the Royal Family

While they were on their way to the Blossom Garden, the four sat together in the carriage, enjoying a game of Go. In the game's first round, Lilian lost her position against Carlson. Every single tactic Carlson used caught Lilian off guard, making her feel as though she was a soldier at war who had almost lost all her armor and wanted to surrender.

Looking quite pleased with himself, Lucas glanced at Harper and said, "Harper, it's not yet too late for you to admit defeat now. After all, that's the only thing waiting for you."

"Your Highness, it's too soon for you to be saying that!" Without warning, Harper grabbed a hold of Lilian's hand and placed the stone on another spot which was different from the spot Lilian was planning to place the stone on.

The seemingly hopeless situation was suddenly turned around. Carlson and Lucas looked at the board in surprise. Both of them seemed to be left at such a loss. Lilian didn't notice the shift in the two men's expressions, but Harper saw it clearly.

"So, Carlson, Lucas, what was it that you were saying earlier? Are you go

to protect her. I thought she was with Mister Zack. Now she is with another man. What a cunning and promiscuous—"

Pak! Before the woman could finish what she was trying to say, she received a hard slap in the face, and the person who slapped her was not Harper, but Lilian.

"What did you just say? I dare you to say it again!" Lilian furiously yelled, pointing at the woman's nose. "Speak badly of Harper again, I dare you!"

"Your... Your Highness!" The woman was left utterly dumbfounded. She wasn't expecting that Lilian would stand up for Harper. After all, Harper had quite a bad reputation. So much so that all the noble clans in the imperial capital didn't want to have anything to do with her.

"Your Highness, I was only saying the truth. I witnessed her date with Mister Zack with my very own eyes. And her younger sister had sex with a man in public." The woman seemed to be convinced of her own words. "You can go ahead and ask her if you don't believe me."

"If I take your word for it, I'm no better than a fool!" answered Lilian, resting her hands on her hips.
