Time Travelling: My Love from the Royal Family

After giving it some thoughts, Harper accepted the invitation, saying, "Yes, of course. That would be work for me." She, then stood up, calling out, "Fred, let's leave now."

With the sword resting on his shoulder, Fred followed Harper out of the palace. The murderous look on his face remained unchanged. Catherine watched Harper leave the palace and regretted having missed the opportunity to trap her. At the moment, Catherine had to tend to her mother. Her mother had no idea about her misdeeds, though she must be speculating something after what she had witnessed. If her mother knew what she had done, she would surely be very disappointed.

"Mother, I..." Catherine then stammered. She didn't know where to begin with.

"Catherine, bring your sister back to the palace. I am going to pay a visit to your father," the queen said tenderly. She came close to Catherine and flicked her hair behind her ear just like she would cajole a little girl. "You should never forget that we are a family. We must always support each other."

Catherine felt the heaviness in her heart and her vision became blurred. Her throat constricted and she could not utter a single word. After that, the queen turned around and went to Lance's palace. It had been more than ten years since she visited his palace for the last time. Now as she walked to that palace, it felt as if a lifetime had passed.

ecome such a reckless woman? Isn't it me who is supposed to act like this?" Catherine looked around and found the owner of the familiar voice. It was Diana standing at a distance, smirking at her. "Oh! I understand. You must have got tired of being oppressed all the time and so you want to try the feeling of being free. Am I right?" Diana provoked Catherine.

Catherine raised her head and looked at the sly smile on Diana's face which enraged her once again. She had the impulse to slap Diana right in the face, and she did. With the impact of the slap, Diana's face turned aside and flushed immediately.

Diana caressed her red cheek tenderly and shouted, "Catherine, don't you know you should not slap anyone in the face? How could you do this to me? How should I explain to Father and Mother? I can't just tell them that I fell to your hand and got my cheek swollen!"

"Why not? I think it's a good excuse. You walked carelessly and fell on my hand by accident. That's why your face has turned red!" Catherine sneered back.

Diana, however, merely snorted, "If it were not for Mother's sake, I would have a fight with you!"

"Anytime!"

Catherine said and then walked past Diana to go out of the palace. But Diana called out again, "Catherine!"

"What now?" Catherine retorted furiously.

"Well, never mind. Let's go to see Father and Mother together!" Diana suggested.
