The Second Life Liliana
Chapter 62. Adaire is alive
...🍁🍁🍁...
"I don't know how, I express my gratitude to your highness the crown prince" Duke Geraldine said, thanking Max for all his help.
"no need. Let's finish this investigation to the end" Max said firmly.
I was going to propose to Liliana directly through the Duke. But it seems like this is not the right time. Okay, just finish one-on-one.
When Max is busy taking care of the Kstaria, Duke Geraldine's family bodyguards are involved with Adaire's death. The Queen was busy heating the King in her room.
"Your Majesty," Queen Freya spoke in a soft voice, she approached the King who was sitting on the bed. Then Queen Freya hugged him.
"What's my Queen?" ask the King who is no longer young.
"Many things happened today that were glorious, bad things." the Queen grumbled with a sullen face.
"What incident?" asked the King while holding the hand of his young and still beautiful Queen.
"The first engagement of the crown prince was void and caused a stir in front of everyone, then the proposal of the crown prince of the kingdom of Lostier also canceled because he refused to marry Princess Laura. What exactly is going on? I'm so useless as a mother" Queen Freya said.
"Darling... What are you talking about? Why are you talking like this? Who said you were useless as a mother?" King Alberto stroked the Queen's cheek gently.
"Your majesty, I'm completely useless. The proof of the engagement plan I had arranged was all messy. Princess Laura is also rejected by the crown prince of the kingdom of Lostier.. How will he get married?" Queen Freya whines about Laura's fate.
I can't accept my son being insulted by the crown prince of Lostier kingdom.
"Lostier Kingdom huh? I'll make a calculation with him. But I have to send messengers and letters to the Lostier royal party, what are the reasons that made them humiliate my daughter. So you take it easy Queen, I'll get justice for our daughter." The king smiled as he calmed the restless Queen.
"Okay, Sire, but what about the Crown Prince? He refused to get engaged to Duke Norton's daughter in front of everyone..."
"My heart, we've talked about this before, haven't we? You and I have agreed to make Miss Julia the crown princess, despite the election of the crown princess. Miss Julia will be chosen as the crown princess if she deserves to be the crown princess" explained the King as she laid her body on the soft bed.
Queen Freya was astonished to hear the King's different remark from before.
Why is it like this? Wasn't this old man trying to help me make Julia the crown princess? Why is he being fair like this?
"Your majesty, didn't the previous noble one tell me. That your majesty will still make Miss Julia the crown princess? Why is it that your Majesty won't help me now?" asked Queen Freya in a slightly raised voice.
The king awoke from his rebound, he stared sharply at Queen Freya, "Queen, the matter of selecting the crown princess should be done fairly. I've helped you to have the engagement, but Max has already turned it down. Then I can only do it fairly, we have to look at the opinion of the people" said King Alberto, he looks unfazed at the words of Queen Freya who wants to make Julia crown princess.
Damnit damnit! It's gonna get harder, if this is how. I had to find out about the woman the crown prince had directly chosen, and then get rid of her. He will definitely participate in that election event.
Queen Freya saw that her husband had fallen asleep in bed. Secretly he went out of his room without the King's knowledge, he met his loyal bodyguard and confidant.

Meanwhile, Arsen still meets Adara in prison. Arsen did not know that he was also suspected by investigators over Adaire's death.
At that time Adara was in his own cell, because he was always tortured by other prisoners. Despite being separated, Adara remains mentally tortured by the guards there.
Arsen was sad to see Adara who looked pitiful behind bars. He could not believe that one of the most beautiful girls in the country would be in prison helpless. Although Arsen feels Adara is useless, but Adara is still his wife and he still has his love for his wife.
"Are you okay?"
"As you can see, how am I in here? I've been languishing here for 3 days and I've been suffering, but no one's come. You even my father didn't come to see me, it looks like you guys are busy with fake Liliana!" adara was sitting underground. Her clothes looked shabby, her pretty hair looked tangled the same as her face that had been covered in dirt.
Arsen miris saw it. "I'm sorry, honey, it's not like that. We're busy figuring out how to get you out of here, don't get me wrong. But why are you saying that Liliana is a fake? Whatchu mean?" arsen asked as he looked at his wife sharply.
"Yes Liliana is a fake, you definitely won't believe what I'm saying. After I digest it well, I see all his behavior. I'm sure Liliana is my sister Adaire who's still alive" Adara explained straight to the point.
Arsen was stunned to hear Adara's words, but a few seconds later he laughed. Arsen thought Adara's speech was a joke. "Haha, honey how can you talk like this? Is it because you're in prison, that's why you're hallucinating?" ask Arsen.
Adaire's still alive? That's not possible.
Adara smiled angrily, she already knew that her husband would not believe her talk just like that. "Huhahh.. Arsen, you should realize how Liliana and Adaire's attitude is so similar! He even confessed"
"Aqara! Enough's enough! Don't say such an impossible thing, it seems that being in prison makes you a little sick. I'll ask the palace healer to treat you and you take it easy. I will definitely get you out of here" Arsen told his wife with a smile. Arsen stepped away from the palace.
"I'm serious! Liliana is Adaire! He's alive!" Adara's screams made her husband turn back.
"Adaire is dead, even the body is being examined at this time." Arsen.
The deg!
Adara was stunned to hear it. His heart seemed to stop right then and there, it felt like none of this made sense. If Adaire's body is found, then who is Liliana? Adara was confused.
"Right, the body has been found and our position is in danger. It's possible that people will suspect us" Arsen told Adara.
"This is impossible, Liliana is Adaire how can the corpse.no!" Adara shook her head.
"Stop talking nonsense, Adara. So you're gonna have to admit everything by yourself, if you're the one who killed Adaire."
"W-What did you say Arsen?!" Adara screaming.
Adara explodes, she emotionally hears Arsen's words that want to subvert her over all wrongs.
