"Booth!"
Amy almost wet herself because of Leo's murderous intent.
Wasn't he just a cripple? How come the king cared about him that much? Or was Booth had other identities?
Just as Amy was wondering, Leo smacked his hand on the table angrily and roared, "Look for Booth in the entire city! Kill him when you find him!"
Others might not know who Booth was, but Leo did know that Booth was Olivia's younger brother and that he was very close with Nicole. Because of Nicole, Booth was crippled. Even after the destruction of the Kent family, Booth and Olivia did not have the slightest resentment towards Nicole and Samuel. Instead, they were getting closer and closer.
So Sienna fell for Booth?
It was more likely that Booth knew who Sienna was and was taking advantage of her.
How could this stupid woman be his own daughter?
At this time, Leo believed that Sienna wouldn't have the gut to betray him. His daughter and his mother had always been spineless. Although Davon had been in power in the Sawyer family, they didn't know each other very well and didn't seem to have met each other. A princess who was not supported by her mother's family did not dare to betray her real father.
Leo was very sure that Booth had tempted Sienna and had taken Nicole and Samuel away from the palace on his way out. Otherwise, where were they?
Who was capable enough to bring someone out under Leo's nose without stirring any trouble?
The thought of Sienna being used infuriated Leo so much that his chest ached.
"Bring Princess Sienna down and put her under house arrest. No one is allowed to let her out without my permission. Those who do otherwise will die!"
Leo was pissed off.
Everyone presented shuddered and didn't dare to breathe. Amy wanted to say something, but now, she didn't dare to utter a single word.
Sienna was dragged away. The entire palace was somewhat depressing and solemn because of Major's missing and Sienna's mistake.
After Booth was taken away, the security outside was heavy and no one was able to leave for the time being. The woman had no choice but to bring Booth to Sally's palace.
No one else came here now except for Zayn and Leo. And the two were probably too busy to be here.
The woman threw Booth onto the bed. Looking at the unconscious man, she remembered that not long ago, Sienna had almost stripped him naked. Yet the man hadn't even known about it.
The woman's expression grew a little darker, her beautiful eyes looking a little sharper. But Booth, who was asleep, could not feel it at all.
Watching the sound sleeper, the woman grabbed a basin of cold water and splashed it towards Booth.
"What the hell!"
Startled by the cold water, Booth woke up. No matter how good-tempered he was, he couldn't hold back his anger any longer.
"What's wrong with you? Who are you?"
It was a chilly winter. And this palace was deserted and unheated all year round. So the icy water on Booth got him shivered with cold. He glared daggers at the culprit, only to find a veiled woman snorting at him.
The snort was so familiar that Booth was somewhat lost in his thought.
He wasn't dreaming, was he?
Booth subconsciously grabbed the woman's hand and placed it on her face to test the temperature.
It was warm.
So he wasn't dreaming?
Booth burst into laughter and pulled the woman into his arms. He hugged her tightly.
"I thought you were dead."
"I won't die even if you do."
A little annoyed, the woman wanted to get to her feet. But Booth seemed to have mobilized all of his strength and just wouldn't let go.
"Karina, how dare you run!"
After the wave of sheer joy, Booth was angry. But he was also glad that Karina had escaped.
When the Kent family was hit hard, what he was most afraid of was that Karina would stay with the family like a fool and caused herself troubles.
Fortunately, she ran away.
Although that was not very honorable, Booth was still delighted.
He had pulled some strings to look for Karina for such a long time that he thought she was no longer alive. He didn't expect that he would actually have her in his arms like what was happening now. However, reunited after a long separation, he didn't know what to talk to Karina. Moreover, now that he was in such a state, he could only ask her to stay in an angry tone.
He missed her so much.
He knew that Karina might not be old enough to know what love was, but so what?
No matter how young she was, when Booth fell for her, he would be patient enough to wait for her to grow up.
Karina's eyes reddened. She struggled for a while before saying, "I didn't want to escape. When the Kent family was falling apart, I had diarrhea and went out to buy medicine. By the time I came back, something terrible had happened to the family. I wanted to call you, but someone knocked me out. When I woke up, I was no longer in City B."
"Who knocked you out?"
Booth hurried to let go of Karina and pulled off her veil.
During the six months of separation, Karina had grown a lot taller, but her face had become much thinner. And her breasts had also started to develop.
Karina was embarrassed by Booth's stare.
"You're a girl. Don't just say out loud that you're killing someone. I'm already like this, and I might not be able to get a wife anymore. If you don't leave me, I'd better find myself a nursing home for the rest of my life."
Booth painted a grim picture of himself on purpose.
But Karina snorted coldly and said, "You don't have to do that. Not long ago, there was a princess who was trying to rape you. If it weren't for me there, you probably would have consummated now. And you might be her husband later. With power, wealth, and a beautiful wife, you're going to be so successful."
Booth paused. He was soon reminded of something and his expression darkened.
"What did Sienna do to me?"
"What do you want her to do to you?"
After all, Karina was an impulsive and young lady who had just fallen in love. She couldn't hide her emotions at the thought of what had happened.
Booth was a little surprised. Was she angry?
Or was she jealous?
But thinking of Karina's age, Booth thought he was reading too much into it.
What does a thirteen-year-old girl know about love?
He smiled bitterly and said, "No matter what she did to me, I'm not interested in her, much less the mood. Where are we?"
"In the palace of Country F. We couldn’t leave yet. The security outside is very heavy. We need to stay here for a while. I'll take you out when it's the time."
"Alright."
Booth trusted Karina.
"Go and find me some clothes. Are you going to give me a cold?"
Sienna was getting bolder. He couldn't believe she had poured cold water on him. But it was okay because it was her, right? Booth would be irritated if it had been someone else.
Karina let out a snort before reluctantly turning around to fetch Booth some clothes.
Booth watched her back as she left before he took out his mobile phone and contacted Samuel immediately.
"Mr. Green, I'm in the palace of Country F. Is there anything I need to do?"
Booth was sent abroad by Samuel to treat his legs and took over some of the Green family's businesses abroad. A few months ago, one of his businesses had something to do with Country F, so Booth pulled some strings and got a visa here for investigation. In the meantime, he could get to know the condition of Country F. But he didn't expect that Sienna would be interested in him. In these past few months, she had been harassing him relentlessly. He was so annoyed by her.
And now he was told that he had almost been raped by Sienna. At the thought of it, Booth was very uncomfortable. If Karina hadn't arrived in time, he wouldn't even know if Sienna would have her way.
But Booth hadn't wasted the past few months. He had found out many things and knew that Major, the enemy of Nicole and Samuel, was hiding in the palace of Country F. Booth hoped that he could help with it.
Booth had an independent way of getting in touch with Samuel, but it had been a long time since he had contacted Samuel. So the sudden message surprised Samuel.
