Fred was in a terrible mood when he left the room. He stomped toward the queen's bedroom but stopped when he got near. After
changing his mind, he turned and walked back.
Although he had someone watching Ross, he could not risk the prince learning that he had imprisoned the queen there. Fred might
not necessarily lose if Ross were to confront him, but the former did not want to make things difficult for himself.
He went to Ross's bedroom and thought he was still there. After exchanging looks with his subordinate, Fred knew the prince had
not left recently. Feeling somewhat relaxed, Fred knocked on the door. However, There was no response.

'He's not like Lily, is he?’
Fred frowned and knocked on the door again. "Your Highness, | need to discuss something with you."
However, there was not even a sound.
Thinking no one was inside, Fred looked to his subordinate, who gestured in confusion that no one had left the room. Fred cleared
his throat and knocked harder. "Your Highness? I'm coming in, okay?"
He turned the handle and entered. Suddenly, a cold voice sounded behind him, "Fred, what do you think you're doing?"
Stunned, Fred quickly turned and bowed. "I didn't mean to offend you, Your Highness. | was worried about your safety, so I—"
"So you cinto my room without my permission?" Ross asked coldly. He looked like he had just taken a shower with a towel
around his waist and hair dripping wet. However, his gaze was cold.
Fred bowed. "I didn't know you were taking a shower, and | was worried. So—"
"Worried about my safety?" Ross plopped onto the sofa. "What's there to worry about? The embassy has many guards and
surveillance cameras, right? Why? Is this place unsafe? You've failed in your duty if it isn’t."

Fred quickly said, "No, that's not what | meant. Of course, the place is safe, but you aren't used to many things here. | was just
worried that you might encounter sminor mishaps while on your own. Anyway, it's best to be careful, Your Highness."
"Are you implying something would happen toif I'm alone?" Ross said coldly.
"Of course not!" Fred smiled and stepped closer. "It's great that you're fine. Nevertheless, I'll still need to cin without your
permission if this happens again. After all, your safety is critical."
Fred lowered his head and added, "Anyway, I'm here to tell you something important.”
"Oh?" Ross narrowed his eyes at him. "About what?"
