Can’t Win Me Back

"your Highness?" Liam's eyes brightened as he caught sight of the slightly naive yet endearing face that had suddenly appeared before everyone.

His heart raced, and he blinked hard, realizing that what he saw was real.

Yuliana bit her lip lightly, quickly glancing at Liam before looking away as if it had never happened.

Liam had been the one who insisted they return to their previous relationship.

Yet now, seeing Yuliana genuinely moving on, seemingly indifferent to him, he felt as though his heart was being pierced, the pain unbearable.

"Miley, why did you bring Her Highness here?" Jonah went up to them immediately.

Miley's eyes twinkled.

"Her Highness came over to help us out." At that, everyone gathered around her.

Breathing heavily, Jasper urgently queried, "Your Highness, can you help us?" "T heard that Lyse has gone missing after being abducted by Kontina's master of all evil, Jameson." Yuliana's eyes were still swollen, and her gentle voice choked with emotion—she had clearly been crying.

"I was so worried...

So, I asked my father to use the royal family's resources to help search for Lyse within our borders." Liam's heart skipped a beat.

"Yules..." Jasper, Jonah, and the others were deeply moved.

They weren't closely acquainted with Yuliana, having only interacted with her briefly during Landon and Lauren's wedding.

Yet, here she was, willing to help.

Regardless of the outcome, they were incredibly grateful for her kindness.

Yuliana sniffled, her nose reddened, and she secretly glanced at Liam.

"My father has agreed to assist with the search for Lyse!" Everyone gasped in elation.

They had been worried about securing the royal family's approval to mobilize military forces.

In an instant, the most challenging obstacle was removed.
