Lost Everything...

Gregory waited in vain for her daughter's call, and when it never came, he immediately sent word out to the royal guards who had been patrolling the area. He knew something was wrong, Amelia shouldn't have taken this long. It had already been an hour, and yet he hadn't heard a sound from her, nor did she return home to give him any updates on the situation.

He was worried, but still determined. There was no way he was going to lose both his plan and the ten thousand gold reward. If he wasn't going to become the prince's father in law, he might as well become ten thousand gold richer.
