Chapter 346


    346 Rejecting the princess


    His helmet broke into pieces and he got some serious injury on his head, prompting blood to cover a


    part of his injured face.


    While Rex was battling between life and death from the gunshot wound and the heavy fall that probably


    dislocated or broke a few bones in his body, he heard a shrill sounding from ady.

    Soon, the owner of the crying voice appeared and knelt in front of him, trying to carry him off the group


    but Rex believed she wasn’t strong enough to, so she started crying and begging for help. That was all


    that Rex could recall before he lost consciousness.


    When he woke up after a few months, he went in search of his savior and discovered that she was


    going through tough times at the hands of her rtives.


    To pay her back for saving his life, Rex went after her but realized she didn’t know him. So without


    telling her who he was, Rex became her knight in shining armor and blessed her beyond imagination.


    “So, it was her?” Celestine asked. She was also aware of this matter. However, she had no time to care


    about who saved Rex because she was more than worried about him.


    Celestine spent all her free time in the hospital with Rex when he was in aa. She didn’t allow


    nurses to watch over him whenever she was around.


    “Yes, she was,” Rex replied with a distant look in his eyes.


    When he woke up from aa, he was told that he was shot by an assassin who was adept at


    snipers. Nobody offends Maverick and goes scot–free.


    As for the bully, he was killed by Piper when she found out what he did to Rex.


    “Fine. So what’s up with you and the Princess?”


    Rex lowered his eyes to stare at her face before smiling. “Nothing; I just had fun riling you up


    yesterday.”


    “Oh really? But what I saw was different from just having fun. That girl is into you.”


    “Of course, she would. I’m incredible after all.”


    Celestine closed her eyes and took a deep breath to remain sane before saying; “That girl-” she


    changed her mind and stopped speaking. If there should be any trouble arising because of his


    carelessness and stupidity, he alone will handle it. So she thought.


    A few hourster, Celestine and Rex were invited for an after–party hangout.


    The Princess was shocked to see Rex walking into therge hall with Celestine, hand in hand, so she


    immediately turned to her father and pouted in displeasure.


    Her father reassured her that everything will be fine.


    Halfway through the party, the King called everyone’s attention to his announcement.


    “I’m honored to have you all grace my birthday party, even the second branch of the Lu family also


    came. I’d like to see it as a process to finally get Alpha Chaos‘ attention.” He and othersughed over


    the ‘joke‘ that wasn’t far from the truth.


    After theughter had died down, the King continued. “This birthday was also a means for our oldest


    princess to look through the young men that would be present and make her pick. She’s already 25


    and should be leaving my protection.”


    “Hahahaha…!” The guestsughed once more. They knew how crazy the King was about his oldest


    daughter, so what he just said was undoubtedly a joke.


    Besides, the King doesn’t have a son, making the oldest princess the heir to the throne, but in Country


    X, a woman cannot be the King for different reasons, which leaves whoever the princess marries the


    opportunity to be the King.


    For that reason, there are many suitors lined up to marry her but the Oldest Princess doesn’t want


    any.


    The King continued after a little pause; “However, our Princess didn’t have to wait for this day before an


    outstanding man stole her heart. She was delighted when she informed me about the matters of her


    heart and I couldn’t agree more with her choice.”


    Few of the people’s eyes settled on Rex. From how cozy he and the princess were yesterday, it was


    obvious he is that man. Most people weren’t pleased, but couldn’t voice their dissatisfaction either, after


    all, he is Rex Lu, Alpha Chaos‘ brother, another ruthless bastard!


    When Celestine heard that, she tightened her hold on Rex. Feeling the strong hold on his arm, smiled


    and nced at her.


    Oh, how he loves that feeling of possessiveness!


    Rex


    The King continued and said; “I will leave my daughter to announce who that lucky man is.” After his


    words fell, the oldest Princess got up and walked elegantly toward the crowd.


    On getting to Rex’s front, she ignored the closeness between Rex and Celestine. Everyone knows that


    Celestine is in Alpha Chaos‘ circle, which automatically makes Celestine and Rex good friends.


    Secondly, her mind told her that the two were a couple but because they didn’t make whatever they


    have public, the Princess believed that they were just having fun.


    With that thought in mind, she thought it wouldn’t be a problem choosing Rex.


    “I want Rex, Dadd,” she proimed with a shy smile on her face while trying to hold Rex’s hand.


    Celestine’s brows furrowed slightly as annoyance washed over her. Rex, on the other hand, smiled and


    pulled his hand away from the Princess‘ hold.


    “Dear Princess, this naughty boy is in a serious rtionship. I have a fiance, I’m sorry.”


    Collective gasps broke out among the guests. While some were happy, some felt unconcerned, while


    others felt the need to speak up… among those who spoke up was Davis Xu’s brother who also had an


    eye for the Princess.


    “Rex, you’re so brazen, aren’t you?”


    Rex’s side–eyed him and snorted; “When does a nobody like you get to voice your opinion in my


    matters?”


    “You-”


    “If you like the Princess so much, why not man up and go after her?” He rolled his eyes and bowed


    slightly to the King.


    “Your Majesty, this Nobel one would like to call it a day. Thank you for the warm wee.”
