Iris clutched the paper tightly as she stood up and barged out of the door to see the maid from earlier.
"Who's the man who gave you the letter?" She questioned, bits of sweat starting to form on her forehead.
Were the people she trusted, the ones against her? The letter? It's someone from the palace that killed my parents? She said as she clutched her chest tightly, unable to breath properly as the maid suddenly rushed forward to grab her.
"That man! I need to see him!" She breathed heavily.
"My lady! You need to relax!" The maid panicked as she shouted for help.
"The man, I didn't see his face he just handed the letter over for me to pass to you." The maid whispered quietly.
"No! I need to find him immediately!" Iris vowed as she held out her hand as the maid took it and let out a sigh.
"Should I call the crown prince?" The maid asked as Iris shook her head but it was to late as Ryan and the Queen came running along.
"Iris what happened? You look pale." Ryan said worried as he rushed forward to support her.
"I'll get the physician!" The Queen said hurriedly as Iris suddenly held her hand to stop her.
"I don't need a physician, I'm fine, you all don't have to worry about me." Iris said taking a deep breath.
"And the baby?" Ryan looked worried.
"The baby's fine." She said and withdrew her hand back.
"I'll head back inside and thanks for the concern." She replied coldly as she walked back into the room and shut the door loudly beside her.
...
"Who came to see her? And what am I hearing about a certain letter?" Ryan questioned the maid in duty.
"Your Highness, the man just gave me the paper to deliver I don't know who he was but he said to be delivered specifically to the princess ." The maid replied in fear.
"You may leave!" He ordered as the maid bowed and hurriedly left.
"Your Highness?" Tayler called.
"Have you found Oliver?" He asked worried.
"About Oliver, our men found a similar body like his in the lake separating the barrier between Euphoria and Utopia.
"No! It can't be!" Ryan shouted angrily.
"We're still investigating about it, we haven't received the report yet." Tayler stated calmly.
"Get the more men to search the area and send the body to the old doctor for a report." He ordered as Tayler nodded in response and left.
"Everything's just getting worse everyday." Ryan sighed.
KING'S CHAMBER -
"Your Majesty! The job has been done." Jake reported as the king stood up triumphantly.
"I had to finish him up before the truth came ratting out, and it seems Ryan is already getting suspicious about what happened." The king clicked his tongue.
"We need to finish Iris of before Ryan finds any other clue about the matter."
"What should I do? The prince has increased security around her? And we can't even poison her because they've her food gets tasted before being sent to her." Jake frowned deeply.
"We wait!" The king smiled.
