289 The End

(A Week Later)

Evelyn was standing beside Regan as the Royal Guard announced the arrival of Rex and Derrick.

Today was Rex's coronation ceremony.

The current Ruler and the soon to be one ruler were going to enter together.

The ministers in the court were standing. Almost everyone was present in the Royal Court except Prince Richard.

Derrick had ordered him to stay inside his chambers because of the scene the prince made in the banquet.

Evelyn was glad. Although according to her, Richard deserved a more severe punishment, she knew that this was the best he could be given because of his status.

She smiled and let the sadness disperse away when she saw Derrick completing the ritual for making Rex his legal heir to the throne.

Derrick gave a sword to Rex and made a declaration which was signed by him as well as Rex. The small ceremony was hence completed like this.

Evelyn thought that everything was done.

But she was left surprised when Derrick made an announcement.
