Stolen Crown Princess (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 98
Caliph remained in his seat, unusually tense—due to the message that had arrived at the Crown Prince’s palace early that morning.
It was Edwik who had sent the message. Without delay, Caliph sent a reply through a servant, suggesting they meet around noon.
It was clear that Edwik’s reason for reaching out was connected to Caliph’s recent visit to the Caroline Marquis household. Moreover, Edwik’s message carried a strong determination to receive the answer he sought.
Though this should have been a welcome development, Caliph kept growing more nervous—the timing was far off from what he had anticipated.
When he had gone to see Edwik, he never expected he would end up revealing his true identity to Ibelia; he had only been thinking of securing her position.
Yet the current situation had changed greatly since then.
Ibelia now knew his full identity, and even now, she was spending time with Felix to awaken abilities she had previously been unaware of.
Edwik surely knew nothing of Ibelia’s recent circumstances, which only made Caliph more anxious.
Edwik was the father Ibelia loved dearly. His mind insisted he should be completely honest with him, yet he couldn’t bring himself to do so easily.
To Edwik, Caliph’s sudden visit expressing a desire to strengthen Ibelia’s standing must have been deeply confusing.
That was likely why it had taken Edwik so long to send his message—he probably couldn’t make a quick decision, having no trust in Caliph at all.
Yet now, Edwik had decided to meet him. Reaching that decision must have required an indescribable period of inner turmoil.
Thus, Caliph felt even more conflicted—it seemed dishonest to meet Edwik with the same mindset as before.
Before he could even steady his thoughts, the servant who had been waiting outside the audience chamber entered abruptly with a knock.
“Your Highness, Marquis Caroline has arrived.”

Xin Jiao Zhou: “???”
He fell ill.
She came to see him, bringing breakfast.
As she put down the breakfast and was about to leave, his hand slipped while holding the spoon. “Clank!”
She turned around upon hearing the noise.
He looked up at her, his eyebrows drooping: “My hand… has no strength.”
“Shall I… feed you?” she asked tentatively.
He opened his mouth cheerfully: “Ah—”
Thinking she was drowning, he jumped in without hesitation to save her, but nearly drowned himself. In the end, it was she who swam over to rescue him, giving him air underwater.
After emerging from the water, his ear tips turned red. He lightly brushed his cheek, tucking his sideburns behind his ear, revealing delicate, pink-tinged ear tips. He lowered his gaze, too embarrassed to look at her.
Xin Jiao Zhou: He’s truly beautiful, kind-hearted, and adorable.
A certain someone when disciplining subordinates behind the scenes: “If they don’t obey, just kill them.”
What’s that? She might already have someone she cares about in her heart? A certain someone: Find out who it is, kill them, and then there won’t be anyone.
What? She met a man by the riverside? What? That man even hurt her? A certain someone: Whichever hand hurt her, chop off his entire arm.
