She even deliberately distanced herself when talking to him.

Trina looked at Ray warily, afraid that he would go crazy and say something he shouldn’t to Athena.

Or she was afraid that he would make an excessive move in the heat of the moment.

But Ray just stood there quietly, looking at Athena with a sad expression.

In the end, he didn’t say anything and nodded gently to Athena. “Everything is fine.”

It seemed that there was no other topic except such polite words.

Athena smiled very politely. “Alright, I’ll take a step first.”

Ray was silent for a while, and finally gave way.

But just as Athena passed him, he couldn’t help but ask, “Now that you are pregnant, be careful.”

Athena nodded slightly to him, and then left without looking back.

It wasn’t until she had walked a long way that Trina saw Ray still standing there.

He looked in the direction where Athena left, with a look of loss.

Trina said, “Princess Consort, Ray…”

“No need to say more. He and I have long been strangers, and now we are just ordinary friends.” Athena’s expression was firm. The palace was full of watchful eyes and prying ears.

Even if she had nothing to do with Ray, she was afraid of being used by people with ulterior motives.

Trina saw that Athena’s expression was serious, so she put away her sympathetic look and followed Athena out of the palace.

Ray didn’t lower his eyes until Athena completely disappeared.

The tenderness in his eyes disappeared, replaced by endless hatred.

He slowly opened his hands, and his palms were blurred.

Unconsciously, he actually hurt himself all over.

“Are you unwilling to let go?” The female voice that suddenly appeared behind him made Ray vigilant.

Turning back, he saw Kendra in a palace dress, standing behind him.

She looked at him with a smile in her eyes, but in Ray’s eyes, it felt sharp and threatening, like a hidden blade behind a gentle touch.

:

No one knew when she appeared, perhaps when he was talking to Athena, or after Athena left.

A coldness flashed in Ray’s eyes, and he asked unceremoniously, “What did you see?”

Kendra was not afraid of him at all, and smiled threateningly at him. “I saw you’re unable to forget your old love for Athena, and being reluctant to part, but Athena abandoned you, and even hated to look at you…”

Before she could finish her words, her neck was tightly grasped by Ray.

His eyes were full of murderous intent, and he gritted his teeth and said, “What are you? How dare you speak wildly to her? Believe it or not, I can make you disappear without a trace?”

Ray’s ruthlessness made Kendra a little afraid.

But as she thought of Athena, her eyes became fearless again. “Ray, you are so pitiful, you can’t even protect the woman you love, and now she is pregnant with someone else’s child, but you can only pretend to be generous and bless her.

“You think you are great, but in my eyes, you are just a coward. If you can’t be with the person you love, what is the point of living?”

Ray’s grip suddenly tightened, his eyes horrified. “I told you to shut up.”

Kendra said, “I have a plan that can make Athena change her mind. Don’t you want to be with her?”

Kendra’s words seemed bewitching, making Ray lose his mind.

He wanted to be with Athena. But she was happy now, and he shouldn’t disturb her.

But what Kendra said was not wrong. If he couldn’t even be with the person he liked, there was no point of him living.

She continued, “I can help you be with Athena forever. I know that your trip to the princess’s fiefdom is not just to escort her coffin.”

“Ray, this is your only chance. Think carefully and come to me when you’ve decided.” After Kendra finished speaking, she forcefully broke free from Ray’s hand.
