Chapter 1735: The End
Queen announced the existence of the crown prince in a straightforward manner, but the old men in the
palace did not forcefully stop her. This could only mean one thing: the existence of the crown prince
was no longer enough to cause turmoil in the royal court.
Thinking about Aarav's body and news of "God's Love" leader being executed in the underground city,
an organization that had created tragedy in the underground city, being completely destroyed, there
was only one possibility. Aarav... was no longer alive.
Lillian slowly opened her eyes, her ink-blue peach blossom eyes gazing at the distant horizon. She
thought about those gentle and cold eyes and felt a hint of weariness between her eyebrows.
Robert's voice came into her ears with advice when Lillian suddenly spoke up and interrupted him.
"Robert, this is not my homeland..."
The land beneath her feet was where she had been persistent all her life.
Robert seemed to have been tongue-tied as all his words were stuck in his throat and his face stiffened
as he looked at Lillian's clear peach blossom eyes. Even now she remained calm and composed.
Lillian smiled slightly before turning slightly to look towards where King Court lay.
She was an imperial governor; no one could judge or punish her!
A bright flash shone through followed by red blood splattering on to ground staining it crimson...
...
In the year 2072 of the Empire, the governor committed suicide at the border of the Empire.
...
In a quiet and pristine hospital corridor, a slender and beautiful figure in a white coat walked by holding
some documents. Her clear eyes looked straight ahead with an unusually calm and composed gaze, as
still as water.
Two girls passing by caught sight of her face and became excited and joyful. As they approached
closer, they suddenly seemed to remember something and abruptly stopped their steps. A polite yet
awkward smile appeared on their faces as they said, "Dr. Turner."
Even though it had been a year since she returned to the capital City, this face still shook people to
their core.
But no one would ever mistake these two girls for each other.
The girl with clear eyes blinked at them before smiling back politely. "Hello."
The two girls were dazzled by her smile before running away shyly yet excitedly.
The girl stood there for a moment before turning her head towards the mirror on the wall. This scene
had played out almost every day when she first returned to the capital City – all because of this face.
"Selena." A voice suddenly rang in her ears.
She looked up to see Patrick standing at the entrance of the hospital with a happy smile on his
beautiful face. She ran over towards him exclaiming joyfully, "Brother! You're back!"
Patrick looked at his sister whom he hadn't seen in half a year before reaching out his hand towards
her saying,"I'm taking you to meet someone."
Selena's heart was pounding violently in that moment. She knew what her brother and uncle had been
doing for the past year. They were looking for her father.
Patrick noticed her confusion and excitement, and he comforted her gently, "Don't be afraid." He took
her hand and led her out of the hospital, turning a few corners before getting into his car and driving
away.
In a corner outside the hospital gates, Christ watched as Patrick drove off with Selena. He thought
about all the rejection and coldness he had faced over the past year, feeling annoyed as he lit a
cigarette before following them in his car.
After driving through several streets, they arrived at an outskirts of town. Patrick got out of the driver's
seat and opened the passenger door for Selena. Pointing ahead with a smile, he said "Go ahead."
Selena blinked back tears as she walked forward towards a tall tree where she saw a man standing not
far away from it. He stood there quietly gazing up at clouds in deep contemplation; his eyes reflecting This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
deep longing just like any other man on earth would have.
As Selena stared at that dazzlingly beautiful face which seemed to be engraved deeply into every fiber
of her being since birth; some kind of instinctive urge stirred within her completely awakening now.
Her eyes filled with tears as she excitedly rushed towards him calling out "Dad!"
Callum snapped back to reality from his memories when he lowered his head seeing that rose-like
beautiful yet innocent face which resembled so much like that passionate woman who stood under this
same tree years ago.
For an instant Callum's gaze became unfocused but then quickly regained composure when he smiled
warmly catching hold of his daughter who was rushing towards him full speed ahead!
On the street billboards, the most exciting news in H country is being broadcasted. After twenty years,
H country's "Hand of God" has finally returned.
In a corner of the street, a ragged woman curls up and stares blankly at the news on the big screen.
She hears the host say, "Miss Turner has led H country's medical team to research one amazing
medical breakthrough after another this year."
As her father's successor, Miss Turner will surely become one of H country's most skilled doctors...
The woman listens and suddenly bursts into tears. She mutters to herself, "I won't fight anymore... I
won't fight with you anymore..."
"Selena, I won't argue with you anymore..."
"Can you give my mother back to me?"
She used to be Selena Riddle from Creephia's prominent Riddle family.
She had a name that was as well-known throughout H country as Leah.
A year ago, she stabbed Dominic and was then taken away by Kiera who went by Manny. During that
time she lost her child and became completely infertile.
Afterwards, as Kiera's secrets were slowly revealed, the forces she was associated with were cleared
out and pursued. She had no protection left and in order to avoid being caught by the police, she had to
hide and run around everywhere until she eventually became a beggar on the streets.
The fame and fortune that she once chased after wholeheartedly had become nothing but smoke from
her past. Especially when she saw with her own eyes that person who she used to step on growing up
return to their family, being cared for and loved by others while also having their own successful
career... Leah stared at it for a long time before crying for a long time.
Later that night, dragging her crippled leg behind her, Leah voluntarily walked into J-Bureau...
Nine months later, the Empress gave birth to a pair of twins - Kemp Anderson (son) and Jewel Riddle
(daughter).
One year later in winter...
Selena sat in the flower room looking outside through transparent glass at the silver-dressed garden.
The winter of Empire was always so cold yet beautiful. The snow piled up all over sight wiping away all
colors between heaven and earth.
Her slender fingers skillfully drew one small animal after another on the glass surface until suddenly
hands reached out from behind covering her thin shoulders with a soft blanket wrapping her tightly
before familiar gentle voice spoke up: "Do you want to go outside?"
Selena paused, her pretty black eyes shining as she turned to the man behind her. "Can I go?"
She had just given birth and was under strict restrictions on movement. Even going outside in this
weather was a challenge, let alone walking too far without supervision.
Osvaldo didn't say anything, but instead wrapped her tightly in a blanket before lifting her up from the
couch and carrying her towards the door.
The crisp air mixed with the scent of flowers rushed into Selena's nose, clearing up some of the fog in
her mind. The man carried her to a warm wicker chair under a blooming plum tree.
Selena reached out from under the blanket and plucked one of the blossoms off its branch. She stared
at it for a moment before lowering her gaze and speaking softly. "My brother planted these for me when
we were kids."
That's why even after all these years, she subconsciously wouldn't allow anyone else to touch this
garden.
The man looked at the moisture in Selena's eyes and quickly hid his own emotions. Suddenly, Selena
looked up at him again. "He'll come back... right?"
The man simply knelt down beside Selena's chair, gazing silently at her without moving an inch.
A cool sensation suddenly touched Selena's forehead - he was kissing her.
Her eyelashes trembled as she heard his voice whispering softly into ear: "Someone sent you a gift two
days ago."
Selena looked up and saw a delicate gift box placed in front of her. The man gazed into her eyes and
said gently, "It's for you."
As she looked at the green ribbon tied around the box, Selena suddenly remembered the image of
those slender hands carefully wrapping the gift before sending it out.
In his dark eyes, there was a glimmer of hope.
Selena cautiously untied the ribbon and opened the blue lace covering. A dewy plum blossom suddenly
caught her eye, so vivid that it seemed to come to life.
Her heart swelled with emotion in that instant.
She held onto that plum blossom for a long time as wind chimes above them tinkled pleasantly.
Suddenly, Selena smiled and said, "Brother Aarav..."
One year ago when she found Aarav he was barely alive. Osvaldo had brought Black Crow and White
Crow just in time to save him from death's door.
No one knew if he would ever wake up again until today...
Osvaldo saw her smile and lifted her up, walking towards the warm house.
Selena obediently stayed in the man's arms. After a moment, she suddenly leaned over and kissed his
face. "Thank you, my husband."
The man's footsteps stopped abruptly as he lowered his dark black eyelashes to look at her with eyes
that were naturally devoid of emotion but now overflowed with tenderness.
He smiled gently.
A faint cry of a newborn baby came from inside the house, and Osvaldo quickened his pace.
Perhaps his purpose for coming into this world was to protect her from fear, pain, instability and
helplessness. No matter what they may encounter in the future, he will always be by her side.
It started snowing again in the sky above them.
In a pure white world, the man carried his wife into a warm greenhouse.
