Chapter 594

Ferris returned to his desk but he could not get into the mood to deal with his work

He was normally as steady as a rock, However, Ferris kept stealing glances at the sky outside that day.

Fifteen

crawled by before Neil couldn’t resist asking with a teasing smile, “Prince ferris, are you perhaps feeling a bit warm? shall fetch some chilled frutto cool you down?”

Ferris caught the teasing smile playing on Neil’s lips and knew exactly what he was thinking

Ferris shot Neil an exasperated look. “You’re really asking for it today, aren’t you?”

Neil pursed his lips and grinned. “Prince Ferris, you always lose your head whenever Miss Monson is involved, if only you could marry her.

At this, Neil abruptly clamped his mouth shut, watching as the smile on Ferris’s face visibly vanished.

Neil slapped himself in frustration.

He thought, ‘Damn, I just had to rub salt in the wound and upset Prince Ferris for nothing”

Neil’s words were like a bucket of cold water, dousing Ferris’s excitement.

Ferris didn’t blame Neil; instead, he just waved him out, prefering to be alone with his thoughts.

He slumped into his chair, staring blankly at the sky, his mind adrift and his spirit crushed.

He knew that time couldn’t be tumed back, and his relationship with Athena could never be the same as the past anymore.

In the end, Ferris didn’t bother changing his outfit and simply attended the meeting in the plain blue clothes he was already wearing

Ferris’s carriage had barely left when word reached Lizzie.

Lizzie’s eyes gleamed with wicked delight. “Really? Ferris actually went to see that bitch?

The servant said, “Your Highness, Prince Ferris is indeed heading to Star Pavilion. I also witnessed the Viscountess make her way there.”

Lizzie let out a triumphant cackle, her voice dripping with malicious glee. “This is absolutely perfect. My efforts to upset Ferris weren’t wasted after all, He finally played right into my hands

“Your Highness, shall we follow them”

Lizzie sneered, “Of course I’m going. Just watch me catch them red–handed. That slut Athena dares to seduce my fianc’ll make sure that she’ll be

utterly ruined.”

Lizzie could practically envision the scene of Athena groveling at her feet, begging pathetically for mercy.

Lize thought viciously, ‘Ferris likes Athena, doesn’t he?

“Let’s see if he will still like her once he sees the woman he loves becomes a whore for all to take!

Lizzie played it smart this time. She avoided using her carriage.

Instead, she hired an ordinary coach and kepta low profile.

All of this was to avoid detection by Athena and Ferris.

Meanwhile, Athena and Ferris remained unaware of Lizzie’s sinister scheme.

Though sharing the same room, Athena and Fertis maintained impeccable decorum

Trina and Neil were both present as well, though they remained by the doorway while Athena and Fans conversed inside

When Athena and Ferris met again, both found themselves at a loss for how in act

It was Athena who first broke the awkward silence. She said while raising her cup, “You’ve congratulate you yet. So let me toast you”

Ferns raised his cup, gently clinking it against Athena’s before they both took a sp

Athena placed her cup back on the table and gazed at Ferris with clear eyes. “You look sturdier now, not as gaunt as before”

Ferris smiled softly, “Yeah, I owe it all to you.”

After a brief pause, Athena finally turned the topic to him, “Is there anything I can do to help with your wedding know you don’t like Princess Lizbe, if there’s anything I can do, spare no effort.”

Ferris’s expression faltered. “So you came today just for this?

“Yes, I can’t bear to see you marry someone you don’t love. I just want you to be happy for the rest of your life, Ferris,” Athena whispered.

Ferris stared intently at Athena, his eyes reddening as he let out a bitter, self–mocking laugh. “Atheny, you know exactly what it is truly want, yet you still say things like that. Do you really think I could ever be happy?”
