Chapter 710
The assassins had already led Michael and Max Lewis into another dungeon.
Inside, they discovered Daniel and his family huddled together-along with seven or eight women, smad and
others weak from illness.
As soon as Michael laid eyes on Daniel and his family, his expression darkened.
“Get them out of here immediately,” he ordered. “Escort them with the ladies. There are capital guards and
Harmony Palace household soldiers stationed outside. They'll be safe there.”
Women were also imprisoned in the adjoining cells, but they were all severely disabled. Shad lost arms or
legs, others had disfigurements, and shad even been mutilated beyond recognition. Their wounds had been
treated carelessly, leaving many infected. One woman's severed leg had already begun
to rot.
When the capital guards entered and witnessed this scene, they could hardly believe this was a grand princess’
residence.
It was more fitting to call it hell!
Pinching their nose against the terrible stench that wafted from the prisoners, the capital guards forced
themselves to take each prisoner out.

In the main courtyard, Zane continued his prayers alongside several high priests. As the numbers of capital
guards and garrison unit soldiers swelled, whispers spread among the nobles that perhaps the number of
assassins was increasing too
Several ladies, led by Molly, wanted to flee.
However, Zane’s voice rose with unusual sharpness as he said, “You can’t leave now that you're here. You must
see this through. Return to your seats.”
Molly was genuinely frightened. She had never encountered anything like this before. Conflicted between the
desire to escape and being ordered to stay, she began to weep.
“Why can’t we leave if there are assassins on the loose? Sacrificing our lives for the dead is utter foolishness!
Why would compassion demand human lives?” she wailed.
“The capital guards and garrison unit soldiers are here, so what are you afraid of? Just look at Lady Fiona. She's
staying calm,” Natalie responded coolly.
In truth, Fiona was anything but calm. Her heart was lodged in her throat.
Having followed Yuvan for many years, she was fully aware of all his plans and knew what lay in Eleanor’s
dungeon. If those items were discovered, the grand princess would be charged with treason.
Even if the late Augustus himself returned, she wouldn't be able to escape punishment. What's more, the current
king was only her nephew.
Hearing Natalie's words, Fiona forced a smile. “If the noble elderly and young ladies are unafraid, why should we
be? The Capital Guard consists of the bravest of our armored troops. They're not loafers.”
“If that's the case, we'll continue our prayers while they catch the assassins Harmony Palace is filled with

the wails of restless souls, like the world outside. Can you hear them?” Natalie said.
Fiona settled back onto her cushion and murmured a prayer, asking the gods to grant everyone peace. and
safety. Just as she steadied herself among the noble ladies, a man rushed in. He was cradling a child of about
four or five, while a pregnant woman held the hand of an eight or nine-year-old.
The capital guards were escorting them, leading them inside in a hurry.
Someone recognized them and exclaimed, “Isn't that the missing lady from the Sinclair family and her two
children? I've seen them! How did they end up in Harmony Palace?”
“We were captured and brought here,” Thalia replied, her face pale and bearing the marks of terror.
Her eyes were still swollen from crying. As soon as she entered the room, her legs gave way and she fell
to her knees.
Rosalind hurried over to support her, “Quick, sit on a cushion.”

you,” Thalia said, her body trembling.
Nadine joined in to help lift her, managing to guide her to the cushion.
“How did you end up being taken to Harmony Palace? Why?”
Confusion spread through the crowd, mingled with doubt, though no one dared to voice their suspicions
openly
The older ladies present recognized Daniel's face and felt a jolt of surprise.
Because Daniel had been away for years, very few had seen his face. Even in the capital, he rarely met with
these women. To see a face resembling Hector’s suddenly appear at Harmony Palace on the night of the
Emberfest Festival was genuinely startling
Yet, it also stirred memories of the past.
Natalie regarded him closely. “You're from the Sinclair family? How is Hector Sinclair related to you?”
Daniel's hair was a mess, but he still nodded respectfully. “I am Daniel Sinclair, and Hector was my elder cousin. |
was kidnapped while leaving the city the other day. Fortunately, the capital guards rescued me.”
The older ladies who knew of that old tale sighed softly, lamenting the cruelty of fate.
Before they could ask more questions, another group was brought in. This time, it consisted entirely of women
and young girls.
