Rebirth Into My Second Chance novel Chapter 315

Max’s words made me nervous. “But Lily will use force to suppress them. Won’t they be in great danger?”

“Yes, but no nation achieves stability without going through fire and war. Richard and Ronald will take control of all of Bravenland together.”

“Richard’s awake?” That was the best news I had heard in a long time. I grabbed Max’s hand and, in my excitement, bit it. “Does it hurt?”

“It does, so this isn’t a dream. Everything is going to be alright.” Max’s words brought a lump to my throat. I buried my face in his shoulder, and my body trembled as I began to cry.

“He woke up the day you left. He knows what he has to do, what he has to protect. He knows his identity and has plans in place in Bravenland. He was in Silverlake City to protect you, which is why he deliberately went along with Hannah Price to keep you from harm. He loves you more than I do. Sometimes I feel like I can’t compare to him, being able to endure for so long,” Max said self-deprecatingly.

Richard had been playing a long game.

He had shouldered all the grief alone.

“Then why am I the one getting engaged tomorrow? I should be going to find Richard. His country is my country too.”

“You don’t have to. Richard said he will win glory for you.” Max played a message Richard had left for me.

“Claire, Richard will win glory for you. Go forward boldly, and don’t look back.”

My tears fell even more uncontrollably. Richard. A man to whom I would be indebted for two lifetimes.

“So, I’m still marrying you tomorrow in the name of Bravenland? You two are quite the planners.”

I could already picture the look on Babur’s face tomorrow, dark with anger.

I was actually starting to look forward to it.
