The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance novel Chapter 1645

"Wait for me to bring reinforcements, then we can act—"

Before Jake could finish, Joshua interrupted him. "No, we can't wait that long. Princess Wright is not a threat, but Prince Wright is not to be trifled with. Once he finds out Star's identity, she will have a hard time getting away."

Jake wanted to say more, but Joshua spoke first.

"Get me a map of the German Royal Palace."

Knowing Joshua's mind was made up, Jake knew further arguments would be useless and simply agreed.

German Royal Palace.

King Wright was strolling through the rear garden with his wife.

Queen Wright said to the King, "Ever since Eason returned from Solmaris, he's been insistent on breaking off his engagement with Mamie. He says he wants to marry Aurora, a daughter of the Williams family. The Williams family's background is certainly a match for ours, but that daughter's reputation isn't very good. She's also illegitimate. Eason is to be king one day. Marrying an illegitimate daughter as his wife will easily draw criticism."

Just then, the butler came to report.

"Your Majesty, a young man is at the gate claiming to be the head of the Gardner family. He wishes to see you."

King Wright was taken aback. "The head of the Gardner family? The Gardner family from Aetheria?"

The butler nodded. "That's correct."

King Wright and Queen Wright exchanged a look. They had no connection to the Gardner family. Why would their patriarch request a meeting? Could he be an imposter? But who would dare to deceive them on their own territory?

Elsewhere, Noah felt immense guilt after learning that Abby might have been kidnapped by Princess Wright.

This was not the first time something like this had happened.

He quickly contacted Princess Wright.

When she answered Noah's call, she admitted it freely.
