"After arriving in the southern country, my mother asked me to come and get the prescription."

Freya raised her head and saw Princess Freya standing at the door.

Unlike before, she was wearing a long water-green dress today, with a light makeup on her face, looking fresh and elegant, with an exceptional temperament.

It has to be said, Freya is a rare natural beauty.

Unfortunately, when she said this, her eyes were darting around.

Freya naturally knew what she was looking for, this Princess Freya was openly coveting her man.

Perhaps coming to get the prescription was an excuse, coming to see her man was the truth.

Freya stood up and handed her the prescription that was already prepared, "Take according to the measurements on it, every detail is vital, there is no room for error."

With a reminder, Freya said to Queen Sali, "Master, let's talk in the living room, it's too sunny here."

Queen Sally nodded.

She knew exactly what Freya was thinking, it was clear that she wanted to compete with her apprentice for men.

Ignoring them, the two of them strode into the living room.

Sally had thought Freya would leave after getting the house, but she unexpectedly followed inside.

Seeing this, Freya furrowed her brows and asked, "Princess, do you have something else to do?"

"Just as I arrived, I met the queen, who specifically instructed me to attend tonight's thank-you banquet."

"Alright, I understand."

Freya waved her hand, but seeing that she still didn't leave, she said somewhat annoyed, "Princess, you should go and collect the medicine earlier, the queen's illness can't be delayed any longer."

After saying that, she assisted Queen Sally into the room.

Freya stood behind, clenching her fists tightly.

Although Leonard and Freya were left behind to treat their father's illness, she found it difficult to even see Leonard, let alone have a chance to get close to him.

Freya was unwilling to accept this. The opportunity was right in front of her, but she couldn't seize it.

It seems that she can only wait for tonight and cooperate with the Queen to take action again!

...

Night fell.

The Queen had already prepared a banquet, waiting for Everything to arrive.

Tonight, the Queen not only invited Freya and Bradley, as well as Queen Sally, but also Freya and the Queen.

After waiting for twenty minutes, except for Freya helping the Queen to appear, Freya and the others did not show up for the banquet.

The Queen was somewhat embarrassed and turned to the maid, ordering, "Go and see what's going on. Why haven't the Southern Prince, Southern Princess, and Queen Sally arrived yet!"

"Yes."

"Don't bother looking." Just as the maid was preparing to leave, a cold female voice came from the front. Everything looked up and saw Freya walking over with Bradley, followed by Queen Sally. The queen immediately changed her expression and personally greeted them, "Lord of the Southern Nation, Lady of the Southern Nation, Queen Sally, I thought you wouldn't come, please take a seat." Freya casually flipped her long hair and said lazily, "Sorry, Queen, I just took a nap and accidentally overslept, making you wait for a long time." In fact, she had no intention of attending the banquet in the first place. Twenty minutes ago, Arthur Yael suddenly woke up, causing a delay. The reason she changed her mind and came here suddenly was because Queen Sally was going to return to her country in two days, and she wanted to help Arthur Yael before she left. She took this opportunity to see what the queen was up to, and if she could catch her in a compromising position, she might be able to avert a major disaster for Zarovia. The three of them took their seats.

The queen warmly welcomed, "I am very happy that both the lord and lady of the Southern Kingdom could overlook past grievances and attend my banquet. I know my previous actions were inhumane, and the current troubles faced by the Quinn were brought upon by his own actions."

"If he had not provoked the lady of the Southern Kingdom with his malicious intent, the lord of the Southern Kingdom would not have resorted to such drastic measures. I have carefully considered that our two countries have always had the intention of forming an alliance. If our relationship were to sour over such trivial matters, it would be a great loss."

Freya raised her eyebrows.

This 180-degree change in attitude, being overly polite without reason, must have some hidden motive.

She also politely said, "Your Majesty, please do not worry. My husband is not ying to hold grudges over such trivial matters."

After speaking, she turned to Bradley and winked, "Right, dear?"

Bradley nodded in agreement.

Bradley was well aware of the queen's sudden banquet and her intentions. He feared she might be plotting something unsavory behind the scenes. But whatever her plans may be, her methods were completely insignificant in his eyes.

"Alright, alright. It's good that Everyone has been clarified."

The queen gestured for the maid to pour wine for Everything, and once all glasses were filled, she raised her own glass and said, "I first toast to the Lord of the Southern Kingdom. Although we had disagreements before, I am grateful that the Lord of the Southern Kingdom was willing to stay and help the queen consort treat the king's illness." After downing her drink boldly, she held up her empty glass in front of Everything. Duke Bradley politely replied, "You're too kind," and also finished his drink. Seeing this, the queen lowered her gaze, a cold glint passing through her eyes for a moment, but she quickly regained her composure. She smiled and had the maid refill the glasses, then looked at Queen Sally and said, "Sally, you have worked hard these days. It's ironic that I am the queen, yet I have to rely on an outsider like you to take care of the king. It truly is irresponsible of me. However, you understand the current situation with Quinn. I cannot handle it alone, so I must ask you to take on more responsibilities." Her humble and respectful demeanor made it seem as if the once venomous and wicked queen had truly changed for the better. Sally coldly raised her gaze and replied in a detached tying, "Thanks are unnecessary. Arthur Yael's life is in my hands, and he has no right to die without my permission." Upon hearing this, the queen narrowed her eyes, a fleeting intention to kill passing through them. Even the hand holding the wine glass trembled slightly. However, she maintained her facade well, and in the next moment, she was back to smiling, saying, "The king is fortunate to have a loyal friend like you. I will drink to that."

Sally didn't say a word, but she still drank the glass of wine.

The Queen finally approached Freya and smiled, saying, "I toast to you, Southern Queen, as a token of my thanks for helping the king despite being pregnant. The fact that the king has awakened makes you the greatest contributor, Southern Queen."

Freya glanced at the drink in front of her and said softly, "The Queen knows that I'm pregnant, so I'm afraid I cannot drink this wine."

As if realizing suddenly, the Queen apologized, "I'm sorry, Southern Queen, it was my oversight."

With that said, she signaled the maid to bring freshly squeezed fruit juice.

Freya glanced but still didn't drink it.

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty, my stomach doesn't feel well today. I might need to excuse myself soon, and I can't have this juice."

Even though she didn't drink it, she sensed that something was wrong with the juice.

It appears that something harmful may have been added to the juice.

No wonder the Queen was so kind to host this appreciation banquet. This was her plan all along.

No problem, they were prepared before they arrived, not afraid of this woman causing trouble.
