Chapter 220 Interrogation On Hold



Earlier on, as Susan made her way to find her maid, who was to help her fetch Luciana\'s maid, she met Luciana\'s maid heading in her direction.

"I was just about to send for you. Are you here to see me?" She asked when she saw the letter in her hand, and the maid gave her a nod.

Although she couldn\'t understand what was going on between her mistress and lady Susan, she suspected that it had something to do with Beth\'s murder, and so she needed to act discreetly since she was aware that if she was caught, she would also be punished alongside her mistress, or even more like what Paulina was going through.

"My mistress asked me to deliver this to you," she said as she handed Susan the letter, and Susan gave her the letter for Luciana.

"Give this to her. Tell her it\'s urgent," she said, and the maid bowed to her before hurrying away.

Susan opened the letter and frowned when she saw the words written on it, [HAVE YOU CONFIRMED IF IT WAS LANCE? I HEAR PRINCESS AMBER IS BEING TORTURED RIGHT NOW AND SHE MIGHT NOT MAKE IT MUCH LONGER. WHAT ARE YOU DOING?]

They were being tortured already? She had never felt more useless in her life. She couldn\'t stand watching them torture Princess Amber, and there was nothing else she could do right now than go to Princess Tyra\'s chamber and pray for her to wake up.

With a sigh, Susan squeezed the letter into the hand of her dress and made her way to Tyra\'s chamber. Once she got to the door, she ignored the guards standing there and pushed the door open.

Her eyes widened in surprise when she saw Tyra stretching out on the bed. Tyra pulled down her hands immediately and looked at the door with wide eyes.

"You are awake!" Susan cried in awe as she ran to meet Tyra and embraced her happily.

Tyra looked like she was panicking and looked all around her while trying to get Susan to keep her voice down because she was yelling too much. But the door opened and the two guards who had been guarding her door entered and looked at her, relieved.

"Did you just wake up? Everyone has been worried about you. I\'m glad you are awake now. How are you feeling?" Susan asked excitedly as she pulled away from Tyra and ran her hands over Tyra, who looked like she was about to faint again.

Susan stood up immediately she remembered that Paulina and Princess Amber were being tortured.

"One of you should stay here with her. While the other should go and call the royal physician to check on her while I inform the Queen that she is awake," Susan said to the guards, and before Tyra could stop her, she ran out of the chamber with all her might.

As she ran down the hallway, she met Harvey, who she almost ran into, but he quickly grabbed her.

"Where are you running to?" Harvey asked, wondering if she had heard about the execution already, but when he saw the smile on her face, he doubted it.

"Princess Tyra is awake. I have to go and inform them," she said excitedly, and Harvey let go of her arm immediately.

"Hurry then. Her maid is about to be executed," immediately the words left his lips, Susan looked at him in horror as she raised her gown and increased her pace.

But she suddenly stopped and turned around in confusion when she heard the sudden rumbling of thunder and saw the way the sky darkened.

She picked up her pace and started running when a strong wind suddenly came, blowing off some of the decorations hanging on the wall and causing them to fly around the place.

As she stepped outside, the whole place was covered in dust and even though she couldn\'t see clearly and the wind wasn\'t making it easy to move, she ran with all her might against the wind until she got to the execution ground.

"STOP!" She yelled when she saw the sword of the executioner raised above his head, and she tried to catch her breath before telling him what she had come for.

"Princess Tyra is awake!"

Princess Tyra was awake? Those who were still standing around and waiting to witness the execution mused.

Damian looked at Susan doubtfully, as he wondered if she was telling the truth or just saying that to stop Paulina\'s execution.

Susan\'s father, who was still standing beside the Queen and Damon despite the fact that the other aristocrats had fled, stepped forward, not liking the fact that both his children were present there.

"What are you doing here?" He asked in an angry tone.

"Are you telling the truth?" The Queen asked at the same time, and Susan bobbed her head.

"Yes, my queen. I saw her myself and ran down here to inform you about it," Susan said without meeting her father\'s gaze.

Even though the queen was displeased by the sudden turn of events, on hearing this, she abandoned everything else, and even her passion for killing Paulina and Princess Amber, to go see her.

Seeing Tyra was important. Not necessarily because she cared that her daughter had regained consciousness, but more because she needed to find the person who was behind all this since she was certain that the same person was responsible for the letter that had caused her so many sleepless nights.

"I\'m sure you can take care of things here," she said to Damon before looking at her brother. "Let\'s go."

The wind did not make it easy for her to move. But Damian and three other guards who stood around her, helped her get away successfully.

Susan\'s father looked at his children, but neither of them was staring at him. Instead, their gaze was focused on the two people he didn\'t want them to associate with. He made a mental note to discipline them later as he walked away with his sister.

Beth\'s father looked at Damon, and he shook his head. "Hold off on torturing them further until we hear from Princess Tyra," Damon said before walking away too.
