All Her Secrets

Catherine’s silence unsettled Harry. He quickly sensed something was amiss, and a perplexed expression crossed his face.

“Doctor, don’t you desire the Passam Stone?” he inquired. “Aren’t scientists like you the most eager to get hold of it? 11

Catherine examined him carefully, finding no traces of deceit on his face.

“Tell me,” she eventually replied. ”

What do you need my assistance with?”

Her response brought relief to Harry. He said, “Doctor, my request is modest. I simply hope that you can help me escape from the palace.”

He went on, “A strange illness is spreading within the palace, much like a plague, afflicting members of the royal family. The king has decreed that no one from the royal family can leave the palace. I only wish to stay alive. If you can aid me in escaping and safeguard my life, I’ll reward you with the Passam Stone.”

Catherine lowered her head, a frigid intensity in her eyes, and her icy gaze swept over Harry.

“Why do you believe I can get you out of the palace?” she inquired. Harry locked eyes with Catherine, unwavering in his resolve. “Because you are the sole person who has dared to offend Queen Lina and depart from the palace unharmed.”

The king’s deep affection for Queen Lina was evident in his determination to elevate her son to the throne despite opposition.

Within the palace, no one dared to cross Queen Lina.

As if concerned that Catherine might doubt his sincerity, Harry emphasized, “Doctor, all I desire is to survive. For me, staying alive is more crucial than anything else.”

A few seconds passed before Catherine responded to Harry. A few seconds later, Catherine turned to Withal, who was standing nearby, and ordered, “Take him away.”

“Understood,” Withal promptly acknowledged. Even before their arrival in Ravenloth, their headquarters had already established a network of informants and personnel within the palace.

Effecting the disappearance of a person from the palace without a trace wasn’t too challenging. After receiving Catherine’s directive, Withal nodded to Harry.

“Your Highness, this way, please.”
