    Chapter 2125 A Bet


    Right that instant, William could not resist thinking about Danrique. He had heard how the others


    described the overwhelming scene many years ago. At that time, sixteen-year-old Danrique wiped out


    the Lindberg family overnight, annihting anyone who dared to stand in his way.


    His white shirt was drenched in blood. It was as though his amber eyes were covered in blood as well.


    That was how he emerged as the new patriarch of the Lindberg family. Since then, his omnipotence


    was known to everyone. Sooner orter, I’ll be like him too!


    Knock! Knock! All of a sudden, William’s subordinate knocked on the door hurriedly and reported, “Your


    Highness, Mr. Faulkner is here.”


    “Please let him in,” William responded. The subordinate hesitated. “But…”


    “Tell me!” William instructed him. The subordinate replied apprehensively, “Mr. Faulkner leads a group


    of military officers, iming they are here to escort you to the pce. They are already at the entrance


    of the castle.”


    “That’s too much! Your Highness, are they thinking of arresting you?” Robin was on pins and needles.


    “Yeah, I guess so.” William shed him a smile. “Don’t worry. I’ll only be away for a short stay with my


    grandpa and will be back soon.” “Your Highness…”


    “If Francesca calls, keep this information from her temporarily till you hear about the official news on


    their wedding. Do you get it?” William reminded him solemnly.


    “I got it.” Robin nodded as his eyes were red with tears. With that, William gestured to the subordinate


    to push his wheelchair out of the castle.


    At the same time, Ss waited outside with the military officers. He stopped them from barging into the


    castle out of his respect for William.


    He could not help sympathizing with William and tried to talk him out into changing his mind. “Your


    Highness, why are you putting yourself in a tight spot? Don’t you know you’ll only put yourself in a


    precarious position by going against His Majesty’s will?”


    William’s lips curled up. “It’s because I don’t wish to betray my friend. Mr. Faulkner, thanks for your


    concern.”


    Hearing that, Ss heaved a deep sigh.


    Momentster, a few military officers stepped forward to handcuff William.


    Ssshed out at them. “What are you doing?”


    “We’re doing so as instructed by His Majesty…”


    “His Majesty only instructed us to escort Prince William back to the pce for a short stay. What the


    heck are you doing? His Highness doesn’t have any strength and can’t even walk. How could you think


    of handcuffing him?” Ss thundered again.


    “Yes, Mr. Faulkner.” The military officers saluted Ss before pushing William’s wheelchair out.


    “Your Highness…” A servant helped Robin out after they left. Thetter choked up and knelt on one


    knee to plead with Ss, “Mr. Faulkner, please take good care of His Highness. He’s weak…”


    “I know.” Ss patted his shoulder and shed him a reassuring look before he turned to leave.


    William cast his head down and remained silent when he was carried onto the military vehicle in his


    wheelchair. As the rain was still pouring, his clothes and hair were drenched. His face was pale as a


    sheet.


    William gazed at the castle via the rearview mirror as the military vehicle drove away from it gradually.


    He felt the throbbing pain in his heart when he caught sight of the servants gazing at his retreating


    figure in the rain silently.


    There were about ny of them, and all were fixing their gazes on him in silence.


    After going through endless suppression and humiliation for twenty years, they were used to epting


    everything silently. Undeniably, they had no choice but to bear with it regardless of what they


    encountered.


    They shared the same fate as the gloomy castle that was gradually forgotten by others. Sadly, their


    prince could only lead a lonely and sorrowful life despite his identity as a descendant of the royal family.


    …


    Once Danrique was back in Xendale and got down from his car, a few maids hurried over to take his


    jacket from him.

    “Mr. Lindberg, dinner is ready,” Norah greeted him with a smile.


    Danrique only hummed before he headed upstairs to his study room in haste.


    “Mr. Lindberg, you seem to be upiedtely. Aftering back from the office, you still have to settle


    work matters here.” Sean brought Danrique a few copies of documents that needed his signature


    urgently.


    “Did she make any calls?” Danrique was very concerned about that.


    Sean replied warily, “Do you mean Ms. Felch? No, she didn’t.”


    “How about William?” Danrique asked again without lifting his head while signing a document.


    “He didn’t either. However, I received news that he has been taken to the pce. If I’m not mistaken,


    the military officers took him away on the spot in a military vehicle.”
