"In the end, he demanded that I come back and tell the king and queen to prepare a five billion ransom within two days, or else he’ll kill the hostage.
“B-But, she’s my sister! I cried and begged him to kidnap me instead, saying I was worth more than her.
“But he said that he knew that I wasn't biologically related to the royal family. Now that you guys have found your real daughter, you wouldn’t care if I was dead or alive. Then, he knocked me unconscious too.”
Charlotte sobbed, but she still managed to articulate everything she wanted to say clearly.
Upon hearing this, Juliana took two steps back. She would have fallen if it were not for Arthur's support.
“Y-You’re saying that Velda has been kidnapped…”
Juliana stuttered while Arthur looked at Charlotte with a pained expression.
Charlotte then cried even louder, “It’s all my fault. If I hadn’t wanted to bond with my sister and take her out of the palace for shopping, she wouldn’t have been kidnapped.
“My brother-in-law hasn’t come back yet. I don’t know if he has realized that my sister has been taken or if he’s chasing after the kidnappers.
“Dad, Mom, I beg of you, please go and rescue my sister. The kidnapper wants five billion. I-I’ll take out all my savings now…”
Charlotte staggered as she tried to get up to go to her private treasury, but Arthur and Juliana quickly steadied her.
Although they were deeply saddened and worried upon hearing the news, seeing their eldest daughter so concerned about her younger sister, they could not bear to say anything.
