Chapter 266

Catherine was the first one to exit one of the two carriages with the help of the coachman.

"I hope we are not late. There was a bit of a problem with our carriages getting noticed on the way here. We had to take another path but we made it," Catherine explained.

Rose linked arms with Zayne and walked down to the carriages. "You are just on time."

Catherine sighed in relief. "Thank goodness. My daughter rode with me while the king and queen were in the other carriage. Paige, meet Zayne's wife."

"She exists," Paige said, waving her hand before Rose. "Did you hit your head out there, Zayne? This isn't like you."

"I want to say it is good to see you but I don't have it in me to start lying here," Zayne replied, wishing he had something to stuff Paige's mouth with to make her stop talking. 

Paige ignored Zayne and went to Rose who was the star of the night. "How did you fall in love with him? He's a brute."

"Paige!" Catherine gasped.
