The Rise Of The Unwanted Girl (Athena) novel Chapter 562

Chapter 562

“Our families are related by marriage. If the Osborne family can help the Monson family this time, you would be our eternal benefactors. From then on, the Monson family will follow your lead without question”

with such hur Faced with such humility from Henry, even Kelsey found her resolve faltering

However, in this matter, there was genuinely nothing she could do. After all, the Osborne family had no intention of wading into such troubled waters.

“You flatter me, Your Grace,” Kelsey replied with a smile, “Our families are bound by marriage. There’s no need for such formality. If the Osborne family can be of any help, we’d be honored to assist, However..”

Kelsey sighed. “This case involves both Eloise and Nicolas, tit were anyone else meddling, maybe things would be easier. But with Prince Xander and Athena involved, even if I were to shamelessly plead with the Queen, she would still be utterly powerless to help.

“Prince Xander holds such high authority that no one dares speak out of tum in his presence.”

Her earlier remarks were

ere just polite pleasantries, but only the last sentence came straight from the heart.

No one could pull any tricks under Xander’s watch. Otherwise, Nicolas wouldn’t have been caught so easily

Eloise’s face turned ghostly pale, while Henry teetered weakly as if about to collapse.

If the Queen had wanted to intervene, she wouldn’t have allowed Nicolas to be taken to the Federal Bureau in the first place.

The Queen was clearly setting Nicolas up as the scapegoat.

At this thought, Henry

was so furious he nearly choked on his rage.

“Nicolas has always been so composed. Why did he lose all sense of judgment over this? Henry wondered inwardly.

However, it was too late for regrets at that moment. Henry’s eyes darted helplessly, Just then, Kelsey’s calm voice floated over. “Maybe things aren’t as hopeless as they seem

“In my opinion, this predicament isn’t unsolvable. As long as Nicolas firmly denies everything, an assassin’s testimony can’t prove much.

“Worst case, just find someone to take the fall for Nicolas.”

As Kelsey spoke, her gaze subtly drifted toward Eloise. However, Eloise was wholly absorbed in concern for Nicolas. She remained completely oblivious.

Henry’s chest lightened. His eyes flickered with calculation before he slowly leaned back into his chair.

Henry thought, ‘Finding someone to take the fall for Nicolas might actually work.

“But who could I possibly find to take the fall?

The person must be a family member, and they have to be willing to take the fall

all for Nicolas!

Kelsey remarked almost casually, “The Queen has her hands full at the moment. But if the Monson family can resolve this crisis, Her Majesty will certainly remember this favor.” As she spoke, she cast a significant, smiling glance at Henry

to take sole responsibility for the entire affair.

This way, not only can the duke’s estate be preserved, but Fermin could also stay out of this mess.

‘Sacrificing Eloise alone to save the entire family seems like a bargain, Henry thought.

But Henry strode out without so much as a backward glance. Eloise could only follow after him.
