Chapter 146

ESTEFAN'S POV

I drove like a maniac to the palace and rushed into the living room where everyone was sitting.

“Where is she?” I asked, breathing heavily.

My father stood up with a dejected look on his face. “Prince Eugenio has her, and he won't release her unless I announce him to the Crown Prince.”

My heart dropped at the mention of Prince Eugenio's name, and my shoulders slumped in defeat. After everything I didn't to save my family’s legacy, everything was going to go down the drain because I couldn't protect Rhea.

If only I had chosen to let that maid go and follow Rhea to the hospital.

I pulled on my hair before I picked up a vase beside me and smashed it against the wall. “Fuck!” I yelled.

“Estefan, calm down.” Esteban rushed to hold me.

“How can I calm down? I don't know what that bastard is doing to her. She must be scared all by herself.” I cried as I spoke. “I should have gone with her to the hospital. This is all my fault.”
