Chapter 25

We couldn't go to Master Qing that day. I went back to my room at night. Someone will surely follow me, but he won't follow Prince Frank. So we made a plan. He will send a letter to Master Qing at midnight. So no one will notice him. I went to my bed and quietly slept.

In the morning, I wake up and quickly went to Prince Frank's room.

"Frank did you sent the letter." I asked closing the door.

"Actually I s---"

"King George is coming~" Prince Frank couldn't finish his words. Why is king George coming here? Did he find the letter? Did he understand everything? I was trembling with fear. The guards opened the door and King George walked inside the room. Then the guards closed the door again.

"Father! Suddenly you are here?" Prince Frank asked him.

"Did you send a letter to someone?" King George asked. I was scared.

"Yes I did. What's wrong with that?" Prince Frank said bravely. He had no fear. And it shocked me.

"Who is Raya?!" King George asked. This words made me more shocked. Did Frank make any plan?

"One of my friends. When I was far away from here, she became my friend." Prince Frank said.

"You wrote her to meet you. If she comes, take her to me first. I would like to meet her." King George said and gave him the letter back. The guards opened the door and he left the room. After closing the door, I quickly take the letter from Prince Frank and started to read it.

" Dear Raya,

Hope you are fine. I have something to tell you. Can you please meet me.

Your friend

Frank"

"What is this letter? What does it mean?" I was surprised to read that letter. He laughed and took the letter from me.

"It's nothing. I wrote it to be sure." He said tearing the letter.

"I wrote it like this, so that I can understand that they are following me too or not. If they are following me, then they will surely read this letter and doubt me. They will think who is this girl and why I told her to meet me. So they will come to me and ask about it. And I will understand that they are following me or not." He said. I shocked at his plan.

"Frank, you are so intelligent." I said tightly hugging him excitingly.

"You really saved us." I said leaving him.

"But now we can't contact to Master Qing anymore. We have to find a way." He said sadly. I also became sad. We started to think a plan.

"We have no choice. Let's be quiet for some days. We have to wait for the situation to back to normal." I said slowly.

"You are right. But how do we know that the guy has stopped following us?" He asked. It made me think.

"I don't know. But you said that the time will say us what to do and when to do it?" I said looking at him.

"OK then. Listen Alex, you have to become close with King George. You have to earn his trust." He said looking back at me. He was right. Why didn't I think about it before?

"Oh Frank! Why didn't you tell this before? You have made a brilliant plan." I said. Now I won't let King George win. I will earn his trust and be close with him. I have to do it.

When I went to the library, I saw the Queen there. A plan hit upon my head. To earn King George's trust, I have to earn Queen's trust first. The Queen was sitting quietly and she was very upset. Maybe for her daughter. After all Florence was her only one daughter. I went near to her.

"Queen, are you alright?" I asked, she looked surprisingly at me. It was as if she was in meditation.

"Huh? Did you say something?" She asked shockingly.

"Queen, looks like you are not feeling well. Let me take you to your room." I said, she stood up.

"No need. I can go back by myself." She started to walk.

"Wait, maybe this book will help you to spend your time." I gave her a book. She looked at it and thought for a while.

"Thank you." She took the book and walked to the door. She left the library closing the door. I took a book and left the library.
