Chapter 164 11: The True Heir
- “If you’re truly hoping to find your wife and rescue her, then eating is one thing you will have to do,” Edward said as he stepped into the lower cabin of the ship, which was Xavier’s room.
- He spotted the untouched meal on the table at the corner of the room, and Xavier stood beside the window, straining through it as if he could see the slave ship from there.
- After Edward caught the revelation about where Mia was, Xavier made plans to leave. He had thought about the best strategy to rescue the queen, but sending an army across the sea to fight and save her was foolishness. Not only would they die, but Mia’s life would also become a casualty of war. The kingdom of Foth had slaves broken and made into monsters for the army, and there was no way Wahala soldiers would survive in such an unknown territory. So he decided to leave on his own and asked if Edward could come along. They would infiltrate the kingdom, rescue the queen, and be on their way, leaving no trace of their presence. He knew Edward had responsibility in the kingdom as the prince, and he also had Kailani, his mate, whom he wanted to stay beside, but he couldn’t do this alone; he needed Edward’s wisdom, and though his request made him out as the selfish and cold villain who only thought about himself, he didn’t mind.
