The Rise Of The Unwanted Girl (Athena) novel Chapter 546

Chapter 546

Leonard’s eyes widened in bestor, utter disbelief written all over his face, “This is absolutely impossible. How could it be an open investigation?”

If this were an open investigation, Leonard knew that neither Termin nor the Queen would escape unscathed

ven the Queen’s temperament, how could the possibly agree to an open investigation? Leonard thought in disbelief.

Achilling realization finally dawned on Leonard.

He had spent the entire night in the dungeon, yet, to his dismay, there wasn’t so much as a peep from the Queen’s side.

Ansel let out a cold chuckle. “Lord Leonard, if you’re smart, y

, you should give up the mastermind behind this instead of letting your family take the fall as scapegoats. His Highness has given you four hours to think it over. You’d better consider it carefully

With that, Ansel turned on his heel and left.

Leonard’s eyes darted about frantically. Has the Queen truly abandoned me?‘ he wondered.

Aher days of relentless back–and–forth on official business, Xander hadn’t had a proper moment’s rest.

Once inside the carriage, Xander closed his eyes and settled into a light doze.

“How is Athena doing?” Xander asked, eyes still closed.

as he rested,

his mind remained preoccupied with concern for Athena.

Ansel glanced sideways sat Xander and noticed the profound weariness on his face, with dark circles under his eyes.

Ansel’s heart ached for him as he replied in an especially hushed tone, “Your Highness, rest assured. The Viscountess has already returned to her manor

for rest!

Athena held no official position, so the Federal Bureau was a place she should never have to set foot in. Xander already had someone escort her home.

Besides, he simply couldn’t bear the thought of Athena entering such a place.

Xander thought, “My Athena deserves only a life of comfort and ease. Let me bear these troubles for her.

Xander gave a slight nod and fell silent.

When they almost arrived at the Xander Manor, Kander said to Ansel, “Keep Athena updated at all times. Don’t hide anything”

Athena was deeply concerned about the case. Xander felt that she should be informed of any developments.

“Understood, Your Highness”

His sharp gaze darted to the window, only to spot a petite figure sitting before the imposing gates of the Kander Manor

Ansel’s eyes widened in shock as he recognized the figure. “What’s she doing here?”

Leonard was accused of murder, but the consequences of such a crime generally wouldn’t extend to his wille and children.
