    Chapter 1759: ire Can''t Escape


    ire, thinking he wasn''t upset, rxed a bit.


    Out of politeness, she picked up the wine ss. Under Taylor''s gaze, she took a sip, not detecting


    anything unusual. The wine was aromatic and not particrly strong.


    "ire, first of all, I want to congratte you," Taylor mused, lifting his own ss. He took a sip,


    smiling. "Congrattions on bing Lu Layeka''s queen."


    The words made ire feel slightly awkward. It didn''t sound like a blessing, more like a taunt.


    "But there''s something... I want to remind you of," Taylor smiled, telling her, "In Lu Layeka, a man


    having four wives is protected byw."


    Polygamy? This surprised ire; she knew some countries practiced it historically, but she hadn''t


    expected it in Lu Layeka.


    So, what was Taylor trying to convey?


    ire couldn''t discern if it was a warning; it almost felt like a touch of schadenfreude.


    But as she drank from the ss, she lightly retorted, "Your father has always had only one wife, hasn''t


    he? Emotions aren''t something thew can protect; it depends on finding the right person."


    "You''ve only been together for six months. How can you be sure this person is right for you?"


    Taylor swirled the wine ss gently, meeting the girl''s gaze. He earnestly confessed, "I like you. I''m


    serious. Can you feel it?"


    A tale of two brothers vying for the same woman? Unfolding right in front of her?


    ire had written about such melodramatic plots in novels before. If mishandled, it could lead to bitter


    enmity between the brothers. Moreover, considering the delicate rtionship between Rowan and


    Taylor, who didn''t share the same mother, the situation was even moreplex.


    So, ire patiently responded, "Thank you for your affection, but I''m sorry I can''t give you the response


    you''re seeking."


    Taylor knew she would reply this way. He took a sip from his ss, the smile on his face tinged with


    sadness.


    "I love him, with a pure and ardent love, unwavering," ire dered. "That''s why we can only be


    friends."


    Taylor concealed his inner disappointment with a smile. "You''ll never know how much I like you. I''ve


    never liked anyone this much before."


    "Prince Taylor, about concealing my rtionship status, I apologize once again for giving you the

    impression that I was single."


    ire raised her ss towards him and clinked it in the air. "I''m sorry," she said, then drank down the


    contents of the ss.


    This was exactly what Taylor wanted. She drank it all.


    He had thought she might refuse the drink, so he had deliberately chosen one with the lowest alcohol


    content, the kind even a three-year-old could drink, and had prepared a heap of lines to coax her into


    drinking it.


    Setting down the empty ss, ire asked, "Was there anything else you wanted to talk to me about


    today?"


    Taylor looked at her affectionately and shook his head. "No, I just wanted to see you." In that moment,


    he felt incredibly content.


    "Then, can I leave?" ire didn''t want to give herself any more private time with him. She was well


    aware of her status and her current position.


    If anyone saw them together, gossip would inevitably spread, and it would lead to discussions involving


    Rowan as well.


    But as she rose from her seat, she suddenly felt dizzy. ire instinctively reached out to steady herself


    on the table.


    The objects on the table began to blur before her eyes. She furrowed her brow, then looked up slowly


    at Taylor. "Did... did you tamper with this wine?"


    A searing sensation surged through her body, intense and acute, as an ominous premonition


    enveloped ire instantly.
