Chapter 114: Evelyn’s Past

Chapter 114: Evelyn’s Past

Rex had not expected that the two men he had sent to investigate Evelyn’s past would suddenly appear tonight.

He had been hoping to find out about Evelyn’s past before because he had wanted to ensure that she didn’t have any link with the Royal Family of Zamorin. It was his way to ensure that she was not here to harm Regan.

But a few days back, he had decided to treat Evelyn as one of his people. So he had stopped thinking about it.

However, the people had already been sent and he couldn’t really call them back as he knew they must already be in Zamorin. So he could only let things go as they were going.

But after whatever happened today, he decided to hear whatever the man had found.

So he took the two men to his chambers.

"What did you find out?"

Rex asked as he sat on the bed and looked at his men.

The man had a serious expression on his face as he spoke

"As Your Highness had asked us to investigate whether Lady Evelyn has any relations with Royal Family of Zamorin, we investigated. She doesn’t have any relations with anyone from Royal Family. In fact, in her whole life, she had visited the Royal City of Zamorin only once and that was when she was sold there. So she had never even stepped inside the Royal Palace."

Rex was relieved to hear this. It meant that Evelyn was indeed no danger to Regan. Now, he could rest assured completely.

However, the other man suddenly spoke up

"Your Highness, we found out some other things as well."

Seeing the prince’s gaze on himself, the man continued

"Though Lady Evelyn had no relations with Royal Family of Zamorin, she is related to a person who was considered very high in Zamorin ...at least until Zamorin was defeated in war and their King was killed."

Rex who was just relieved suddenly looked attentive.

"Who is this man?"

He asked. He suddenly realized that as long as it concerned Regan he couldn’t take anything lightly.

"Your Highness, this man used to be a very close friend of Crown Prince William."

These words only made Rex’s heart sink down and he asked the last question he had.

"And how is this man related to Evelyn?"

"This man is Lady Evelyn’s husband."

"What did you say?!"

After Regan had thrown the man down the bed, he could see his face and clothes clearly in the moonlight.

His red eyes went redder when he saw that the man was wearing the clothes of a guard.

How dare a guard of the castle come inside a girl’s room like this!

The thought filled Regan’s heart with anger especially when he realized that the girl was none other than Evelyn.

He first moved towards the bed. Seeing, Evelyn’s trembling body and closed eyes as she shrunk her body into a small ball in hope of trying to find some comfort, Regan felt as if someone had twisted his heart until it squeezed out some blood.

He saw that her dress was still right but he still he picked up the blanket and covered her body with it as if he hoped that. During this, she opened her eyes once and looked at him. Her eyes were filled with fear and nothing else.

This was not how he had been expecting her to look. Regan thought.

The next moment, he covered her eyes indicating for her to close them again.

It would be better if she wouldn’t see what he would do to this man. Evelyn obeyed him as she didn’t even wish to see the man’s face.

Though he wanted to stay by her side and comfort her, Regan also wanted to teach this man a lesson.

As the prince of this castle, it was his duty to deal with this man because this man was a guard of his castle.

No one in this castle should dare to repeat what he did in the future.

Finally, Regan moved towards the man and raised his leg to kick the man but the man dodged his kick sharply.

Regan’s anger only increased and he was ready to attack the man again but the man held his hand when he was trying to hit him.

Angered, Regan looked at the man carefully. He seemed to be a trained person.

There was no way he could be one of the castle’s guards. Their techniques were not this good.

And Regan was very right.

The next moment, he heard the man say

"I never knew that Your Highness is a short-tempered person. Attacking someone without even hearing him out...that’s not something a Royal Prince should do."

Regan’s eyes shone with coldness. He freed his hand from the man’s grip within a moment and then swung his fist on his face.

The next moment, the man was lying down on the floor.

When Regan looked down at the man, the man stared at him with cold and sharp eyes. His lips were bleeding.

"You dare to enter a lady’s room and treat her like this and you still expect mercy for yourself. If that was what you wanted, you should have thought a hundred times before committing something like this."

Regan said coldly.

At his words, the man smiled suddenly. His lips were still bleeding and the smile on his face looked very scary...especially when he said his next few words.

"The girl Your Highness is talking about...Does Your Highness what she is to me?"

Regan’s eyes narrowed as he looked at the man. He was not really paying much attention to the man’s words.

His fists were clenched tightly and he was already thinking about how he would torture this man. But what he heard next left his mind blank.

"The girl Your Highness is so concerned about..."

The man almost seemed to be biting his words when he said ’concerned’ and took a long pause before he continued

"She is my wife."
