Although the two were cousins, there were no tender feelings between them. Since young, Aarya Quime and Murong Ling competed with each other over every little thing.
They scratched, clawed, bit, and cursed at each other without any reservation.
If it wasn't for their elders repeatedly lecturing and keeping them separate, the two would've already taken each other's life.
So it wasn't quite surprising for there to be so little trust between them and for their alliance to crumble so quickly.
"Aarya Quime, are you saying you want me to tell Crown Prince Lail you're not his wife?" Murong Ling asked in disbelief.
Truly? She wanted to expose this truth to the Crown Prince more desperately than anyone else. Seeing Aarya Quime fluttering around the man of her heart suffocated her. She spent many sleepless and restless nights dreaming about Crown Prince Lail speaking sweetly and gently with her.
