" Fuck, I almost got carried away and said my heart was "inner Aiden
" A..What did you say? heart.ha..ti cow??" ask Arabella reassured again
" Yes, I want to eat with you. The cow's heart "Aiden sounds nervous
" Oh, you want to eat beef liver? I guess what "inner Arabella
" This is not the time to tell my feelings, I will find the right time later and tell you all the truth "inner Aiden
" Well, I'll treat you to beef liver" Arabella agreed
" i'd love to know why Prince Aiden's mother died, but if I just ask, it's not polite and it's going to offend him. I feel heavy keeping this secret alone "inner confused Arabella
" Yes, but I'll settle this case first" Aiden said
" I don't know if I can talk this comfortably with her "inner Arabella is happy
" In this life, I will protect you well. People who have hurt you in the past. I will make them suffer. Especially Count Oscar. "inner Aiden.

In the palace kitchen, Aiden, and Demian brought along several palace guards interrogating all the servants who were providing food. The interrogation was also witnessed by Arabella
" Who was in charge of providing the necessities for the princess test yesterday?" ask the head of the guard firmly
" It was my duty " replied one of the short-haired servants
" What materials did you give to the candidates for the crown princess?" ask the chief of the guards
" Tea, rose juice, milk, and sugar" answered the waiter
" Well, is there any berry powder in any of the ingredients?" ask the chief of the guards
" No "answered the waiter
" That means, it was likely that the berry powder, was brought by someone from outside the palace. That is, the person who did this was indeed intentional, and the purpose was to trap my "inner Arabella thinking
" He doesn't look like he's lying" Aiden's inner self
Aiden and Arabella continue the investigation into the place yesterday's tea-making test. Aiden saw that there was a powder of berries still scattered on the floor. Then he remembered seeing one of the suspicious kitchen maids.
" We go back to the kitchen" Aiden said with eyes that showed full decisiveness
" What? yes well "said Arabella confused
Aiden and Arabella return to the kitchen and see one of the suspicious waiters. Aiden raised his sword to the neck of the sword.
" His highness the prince, what are you doing?" ask Arabella in shock
" Didn't you see his behavior as suspicious?" ask Aiden sharply
" I didn't expect Prince Aiden to have this strong aura, a sharp aura, an aura that was almost the same as the one Eugene had when he was angry. Without hesitation, he raised his sword "inner Arabella in awe
" Her Majesty the prince.. " The waiter was shaking
" Demian, check on his shirt and take off his shoes !" aiden exclaims to Demian
" Good noble" said Demian obediently
" what are you going to do, your majesty?" the waiter asked in fear
Without them noticing, there was someone who was watching them silently.
Demian opened the servant's shoes and under his shoes he kept the powder of berries. All the waiters there saw it.
" The evidence is clear, now say ! who told you to frame Miss Arabella?" asked Aiden with a sharp look
Shortly thereafter, the Queen and Deborah came there.
" what's going on?" ask the Queen sharply
Everyone in the kitchen saluted the Queen. The queen looks dumbfounded to see the servant who is being threatened by Aiden.
" Is this your plan, queen? but why?"' inner Aiden astonished
" It so happens that the queen's majesty comes, we are here trying to uncover the mastermind who tried to trap miss Arabella and also harmed the queen's majesty" Aiden said
" This kid, he really is similar to Caesar. And her bravery, similar to Canaria's "inner Queen feels claustrophobic
" really? Then, is this waitress the one?" asked the Queen with a cynical smile
The servant glanced at the Queen, and was seen hinting at something.
" For the sake of my family's safety, I will do this "inwardly sad servant
#FLASHBACKS
20 Minutes earlier...
In the queen's room, the Eastern palace.
" Your highness, wouldn't it be dangerous if prince Aiden interfered in the investigation directly? " ask Deborah worried
" Why should we be afraid of that child? that kid never even went to war, he was stupid and a village. There was no way he could find the culprit " said the Queen undercut
" It's true as well, but I'm worried because they're already suspecting who did it" Deborah said
Moments later, the Queen receives a letter from Oscar and he seems surprised.
" Fuck !! damn !! Fucking aiden !! " the Queen shouted furiously
" Her Majesty, what's the matter?" ask Deborah wonder
" I guess you're just a stupid, ugly duckling, and it turns out I'm wrong he's pretty smart. All right, you can be smart but I'm more clever "inner Queen upset
" Deborah ! bring that kitchen waitress named Joel here !" exclaim Queen
" Good, your majesty ! " said Deborah obediently
Shortly thereafter the servant named Joel met the Queen.
" Her Majesty the queen, what's calling me?" joel asked confused
" No, I just want to remind you that the lives of all your family are in my hands" said the Queen sharply
Joel looked startled and knelt in front of the queen. Joel says that he will do anything for the queen to save her family.
" Is it really anything? if you want to obey, I will also make your family prosperous and meet their needs" said the Queen
" Whatever it is I will do, noble queen" said Joel forcedly
" You just have to confess in front of everyone that you put the berries in the tea made by Miss Arabella, and you have to say that you did it because you didn't like me" said the Queen
" WHAT???!" Joel's shocked
" i just have to do that, right?" ask Joel again
" Yes, the rest let me take care of it, remember. Your acting should be good "the Queen replied as she looked at Joel sharply
#END FLASHBACKS
" Confess it ! who told you to do this?" ask Aiden
" I .. I did it myself. I put the powdered berries into the tea made by Miss Arabella" Joel stammered
" But why? why are you doing it?" ask Arabella curious
" I hate her Majesty the Queen and I want her dead !!" yell out Joel
" No, he seems to be lying. I'm sure there's something behind all this "inner confused Arabella
" What? how dare you !! put him in jail !" the Queen shouted furiously
" Before she asks this servant any more questions, I must quickly clear her "inner Queen
The bodyguards took Joel into the prison, and Joel did not fight back at all. Aiden and Arabella grow suspicious of the queen and the maid.
" You rest easy, because the culprit has been found out. I'll help you punish her "said the Queen kindly
" Maybe it's best that the queen's majesty doesn't bother, there are still many things I want to ask the maid, does she really not like the queen's majesty? and what is his motive for doing this? . " said Aiden with a cynical smile
" Snitch, how dare to challenge me "inner Queen
" Well, you can ask later when you're in jail. Miss Arabella, forgive me for this inconvenience. You get involved with a lowly servant like her, I always treat her badly, no wonder she does this to me "the Queen looks sad
" I know you're faking it, you're blaming an innocent man right? I will prove in front of everyone including in front of your two children "inner Arabella is not happy
" Yes, your queen, don't worry. I'm fine, thank you for the help of the queen's majesty" Arabella said with a friendly smile
Aiden and Arabella's suspicion of the queen grew even greater. And they're getting more alert. Arabella and Aiden meet Joel in prison but they find Joel dead with his mouth covered in blood.
" aa.. What's this?!" arabella exclaimed in shock at Joel's corpse with bulging eyes and a gaping mouth filled with blood
" Don't look !" aiden exclaimed while closing Arabella's eyes with her
" who did this horrible thing? who ?!!" arabella cried
" Why see it I remember when I was put to death? is life really worthless to a member of the royal family? why was he treated like this. so cruel. "the inner Arabella was sad.
Aiden hugged Arabella to calm her down.
" How could he do this cruel thing to a servant?" aiden's mind is upset
" Your highness prince.please.. " Arabella drowned and eventually fell unconscious.
" Arabella? Arabella !" aiden is panicking
Aiden told the bodyguards to autopsy Joel's body, and he carried the unconscious Arabella.
***
The girl opened her eyes and she was already in her room. Beside him was Ashton, and Peter looked at him anxiously.
" You're finally awake too" said Ashton in relief
" You know not, it's almost that his highness Prince Aiden slashed the Doctor's neck if you're not aware" said Peter in relief
" I why?" ask Arabella confused
" You fell unconscious, the prince brought you here" replied Ashton
" Prince? where is he now?" ask Arabella limp
" He was taking care of the servant's body" replied Peter.
" You calm down, you've been unconscious for 2 hours in shock" Ashton said anxiously
" Have I fainted all this time? I guess I really couldn't bear to see the corpse of the waiter just now.Even now I'm also nauseous "inner Arabella sad.
" Do you want to eat something? you haven't eaten yet, have you?" ask Ashton worriedly
" Yes, I'll buy you your favorite food" said Peter attentively
" No need, I don't want to eat. I just want to drink "said Arabella limp
" Why was my heart so sad to see Abel so sad and I was so worried about him when he passed out.What is this feeling?" ashton was confused
" What's wrong with this Ashton guy? he looks different than usual. He even left his important training and went to the palace after hearing Abel faint. Can't it be that she's got any unusual feelings for Abel?" peter thought
Ashton gives Arabella water to drink attentively, while Peter looks at her suspiciously.
***
The king knew about the maid's arrest, but instead he met the queen and looked angry.
" What exactly are you doing?" ask the King to be angry
" What's going on? you come and get angry, explain what's going on?" ask the Queen
" I've always protected you, covered up all your crimes, but you haven't changed at all. Enough ! this is the last time I protect you, Freya !" exclaim the King of wrath
" What do you mean, your highness?" ask the Queen with a plain face
" do I need to mention one by one your sins? this time you've gone too far for the queen, if you do this again, I won't help you again." said the King firmly
" What? what does it mean that he knows everything?" the Queen panicked
" Don't think I don't know. You've done a lot of evil to innocent people. It's my fault for letting your behavior go all this time, but I won't stay silent anymore. Imagine if our two children knew of your bad behavior? especially if Eugene knows that you're trying to harm the girl he likes just to be Claire's crown princess" said the King sadly
The Queen wept and knelt at the King's feet, begging him to save her one last time. And he promised that he would not commit any more crimes, the King agreed but the Queen would continue to serve her sentence.
The King also tells the Queen to let Eugene make his own choice.
Camille was at the door of the Queen's room and she was shocked to hear all the conversations of the Queen and the King.
Meanwhile, Eugene was outside the palace for doing the King's work.
***
Camille visits Arabella who is resting in her room.
" Here princess, greetings." said Arabella politely
" How are you doing, sister Arabella?" ask Camille worried
" I'm fine " replied Arabella
" You must be feeling depressed because of the evil plan my mother made, I'm really sorry. I can't tell you the truth, because after all she is my mother "inner Camille feels guilty
" I brought you some beef" Camille said, handing over
" Why did you bother bringing me food?" ask Arabella wonder
" He brought me food with his own hands, really good boy "inner Arabella amazed
" I heard that I was having an appetite, so I brought you some beef. Because I heard from Captain Ethan that you like beef "Camille smiles kindly
Arabella saw the meat on the table, and she was nauseous.
" oo. uwekk.. "
" Sister, are you okay?" ask Camille worried
" Look at the meat.why do I remember the servant's corpse this morning .." Arabella's mind was sad.
" I'll get a doctor ! just a minute !" exclaim Camille
" no princess, I'm fine. I was just sick because I hadn't eaten. Her highness princess need not worry "the word Arabella calms
" What do you want to eat then? will I bring you what you want?" ask Camille
" I don't want salty. Seeing salty food I felt nauseous. Forgive me princess, like her I can't eat her meat" said Arabella feeling guilty
" it's okay, I'll bring you something sweet? what do you want?" ask Camille spirit
" Don't bother, princess. I've brought it" Ashton said as he walked into Arabella's room
Ashton gives Arabella her favorite chocolate cake and hopes Arabella will eat again. Camilla sees Ashton's concern for Arabella, and regards Ashton as her sister's love rival. Camille is cynical about Ashton, and Arabella is confused.
Ashton was delighted that Arabella wanted to eat the chocolate cake she had bought.

The king said that the case about the Queen's incident was closed and Arabella would be returned to her mansion. Aiden was happy to hear that.
" What? so I can go home?" ask Arabella happy
" Yes, and the king also said he would grant one of your requests as a sign of his apology" Aiden said
" One request??Am I just using that now ? so that I can escape from all this "inner Arabella thinks
" actually, what was he thinking?" inner Aiden was curious
" Thank you for your help prince, I will treat you to a meal later yes" Arabella said with a smile
" I'm looking forward to it" Aiden said with a smile
Arabella sees some enchanted maids looking at Aiden's good looks, and as Aiden passes in front of them. The servants were seen scrambling for Aiden's attention. But, Aiden did not glance at them in the slightest. Because he was busy watching the blond girl with her beautiful blue eyes. For Aiden, Arabella was the most beautiful girl in his eyes.
Arabella, and her two older sisters will return to their mansion, but Arabella's attention is drawn to Oscar who is walking towards the Queen's room and carrying an object he recognizes.
" Is that my bracelet? why would it be on him?" inner Arabella shocked
" Abel, what's wrong?" ask Peter
Oscar looked at Arabella's expression and smiled faintly, he approached Arabella and her two brothers.
" If my guess is correct, then he's the one. All right, let's see the reaction of his "inner Oscar.
" Greetings Mr. Count Oscar" said Ethan, Peter and Arabella greeting
" The son of Duke Reese's son is indeed extraordinary, I heard that Captain Ethan has achieved many extraordinary achievements in advancing this kingdom" Oscar praised with a smile
" Basic, you're the same as your ally the Queen. You're beautiful outside ugly in "inner Arabella full of anger
" This girl, I always felt that she had a grudge against me. "inner Oscar
" I'm not that great, Count" said Ethan lowly
" Oh, doesn't that bracelet belong to Abel !" peter exclaimed while looking at the purple bracelet held by Oscar
" Brother Peter, why are you talking about that now? She must have had a certain intention of carrying my bracelet "inner Arabella felt threatened
" Right, it turned out that this girl was eavesdropping as I spoke to Queen "inner sharp Oscar
" So this is yours, Miss Arabella?" ask Oscar with a thin smile
" Yes it belongs to our sister, the bracelet is a gift from me" Peter replied
" Good, I finally found the owner" Oscar said with a hidden smile
" What does that smile mean? " inner Arabella restless
Oscar handed the bracelet to Arabella, and Arabella accepted.
" How could you lose a gift bracelet from me? you have to take good care of her " Peter reminded
" Yes big brother, I accidentally dropped it Thank you for returning my bracelet, Count Oscar" Arabella said politely
" Together, oh yes I found this bracelet on the balcony during the party" Oscar said
Arabella was stunned and stunned to hear it, as if she knew what Oscar meant by the words balcony and party.
" He must know something, I have to find out what he knows as much, this could be dangerous for Claire's position and my position in Oscar's "inner mind palace
" Next time keep the bracelet well yes "Oscar smiles
" well, thank you Mr. Count" said Arabella while holding back the unrest
" What a shit ! why did my bracelet fall there, and I can't deny anything anymore. She must have suspected that if I heard her conversation with the queen, she was talking like that just now" Arabella was troubled
Oscar walked to the Queen's palace. Arabella and her two sisters return to the mansion.
***
The Reese mansion..
" It's nice to be back in my own house" said Arabella happily
" Miss, we miss miss Miss !" layla and Daisy cried
" ha.. I guess you guys are happy because there is no me, but it's just a day" Arabella said with a small laugh
" why is Miss talking like that? we are very sad that Miss is not home" Daisy said
" Yes lady, let alone we've heard the news about the incident at the Queen's palace. We're worried about miss " said Layla worriedly
" The problem is over, you don't have to worry" Arabella said
" Miss !!" yells Daisy and Layla while crying "huuu.."
" What's up? hey ! why you?" arabella asked in surprise to see her two loyal servants crying
" Can we hug miss .." Layla said shyly
" Miss will definitely be angry "inner Daisy
Arabella smiled at him, then spread her arms.
" Come here ! we hugged ! I want to hug you too !" exciting Arabella happy
Daisy, Layla and Arabella embrace each other with happy smiles. The two loyal servants stopped crying after Arabella told a funny story.
After she finished her bath, her memory of Joel's corpse was still remembered in her head. And his head felt dizzy, he was nauseous every time he wanted to eat. He was astonished because his body was not usually weak, and just collapsed like this morning. Lately he feels that his body is not as strong as it used to be.
Arabella is getting ready to change her clothes with a suit to practice swordsmanship.
" Miss..mady where are you going?" ask Layla
" Don't you want to practice swords?" ask Daisy
" yes, I have to start sword practice again. I haven't practiced for a long time" said Arabella spirit
" I must be diligent in training, so that I can fight Count Oscar, if he at any time intends to harm me. Because he already felt that I was a "inner Arabella threat
" But, miss .. miss just recovered" Layla said
" Geez Layla, Daisy, please ! don't block me, it's for my future" Arabella said
Layla, Daisy and Felix had tried to persuade Arabella not to go to sword practice, but Arabella insisted on going to sword practice that afternoon. Arabella brought a cake for Guru Cedric (Aiden) and his two bodyguards.
" I was angry last night at the teacher for no apparent reason. Yes, I must apologize today, I hope the teacher likes this cake that I brought. She likes the "inner Arabella caramel cake
Lorenzo, who had been tasked with following Arabella, immediately told Aiden who was at the palace that Arabella was on her way to the sword camp.
" Your highness, you must quickly return to camp !" exclaim Lorenzo
" Aish.well, we should be faster than them" Aiden said with a sigh
" My goodness, if you don't want to continue being two people. You should tell Miss Arabella the truth, so you won't have any trouble like this "inner Lorenzo is dizzy
" To when should I pretend "inner Aiden is tired
***
30 Minutes later..
Arabella arrives at the sword camp, along with Felix. He saw Aiden training a sword.
" Teacher !" arabella is calling
" hi miss Arabella" Demian and Lorenzo said kindly
" Hey Demian ! hi Lorenzo !" Arabella says hello
" Thank God I got to "inner Aiden relieved
" Your Majesty, you survived "inner Demian
" Why are you here?" ask Aiden cuek
" I see, he must still be angry because yesterday" said Arabella in his heart
" teacher, I want to apologize" said Arabella with a parched face
" What for ?" ask Aiden
" Because last night I was indignantly angry at you, when you cared so much about me. But, I'm even mad at you. Please forgive me "said Arabella while showing her the cake box in her hand
" What is this?" ask Aiden while looking at the box of cookies
" Ah I should be the one to apologize, instead of comforting you but instead making you sadder "inner Aiden
" I'm sorry. This is my apology "Arabella said with a clear face
" You cheat, saying such words with a face that makes people unable to say no to you "inner Aiden
" I should be the one apologizing, I meant to comfort you. But I made you even sadder" said Aiden
" No no ! it's all my fault teacher !" plain arabella exclaims
" Are you okay? how's the matter at the palace?" ask Aiden worriedly
Arabella tells the story of Prince Aiden helping her with vigor, and that is how Aiden and Arabella made up. Aiden trained the sword Arabella and he praised Arabella for being more proficient in swordsmanship despite studying in a short time. Arabella was very happy to hear that.
" Oh yes teacher, prince Aiden wants me to treat his beef liver" Arabella said
" really? " ask Aiden
" Yes, he said he asked for a reward because he helped me. Why does he like cow hearts as much as you do? " ask Arabella
" I ? I like the cow's heart? not " said Aiden denying
" You want to lie again? when you eat with me, you also order beef liver. You said you liked cow hearts so much, " said Arabella suspiciously
" Has my disguise been discovered?" ask Aiden in his heart
Aiden recalls Felix telling him that Arabella hated the people who lied to her the most, the liars being traitors. And lying is betraying.
" Teacher, tell me the truth? there's something you're hiding from me, isn't there?" ask Arabella sharp
Reflexes, Aiden's body fell silent hearing him. He took his eyes off Arabella.
