Juliana managed to compose herself, and Arthur sighed in relief as he continued holding her in his arms.
They sat there through the night. As the first light of dawn approached, a helper rushed in excitedly.
“Your Majesties, Princess Velda has returned!”
What?! Arthur and Juliana jumped to their feet, staring at the helper in disbelief. “A-Are you talking about Velda? Has Velda returned?”
How could that be possible? Was she not…
“It’s true! It’s Princess Velda herself. She’s at the palace gates with her husband right now!”
The helper confirmed once again, and the two could not stay seated any longer. They ran toward the palace gates.
“Your Majesties, please slow down. Princess Velda isn’t going to run away…”
The helper trailed behind, unable to catch up with the two. He was helpless as he stood there panting heavily.
He had never seen Arthur and Juliana lose their composure like this before, and it was all because Princess Velda had returned.
“Velda, My Velda. Is it you? You’re back!”
Before they even reached the gates, Juliana eagerly called out her name. Lucy and Matthew stood quietly by the car at the palace gates.
Seeing Juliana in such a state, Lucy could not contain herself either. She ran forward to greet her.
The mother and daughter embraced, and Lucy comforted Juliana, saying, “It’s me, Mom. I’m fine. I’m back now.”
Lucy woke up before dawn and heard from Matthew that the royal guards were covertly investigating her whereabouts throughout the city.
She knew that Arthur and Juliana must have been worried sick, so she hurried back to the palace as soon as she woke up.
