The Kidnapped Bride

Chapter 528: Jennifer is Ava!

Amelia and David felt their spine was filled with dread and uneasiness. It didn’t hit their mind in any better method for them to realize where they were right now.

Being kidnapped and stuffed into the car,they were blindfolded and made to sleep. God knows where they were brought as they had no idea. Until they heard the familiar voice...

“K-King...Richard?” It was Amelia who recognized the voice first.

Despite being blindfolded, hearing this voice after twenty five years ago, she could still not overcome the true fear that had stressed in her heart since they committed the crime..

On the other hand, King Richard smiled when he heard his name, “Seems like you are still aware who I’m after so many years. Indeed,I wasn’t wrong in what I thought.”

“K-King...h-how...” Amelia was at a loss for words.

She wanted to clarify many things but her heart guided her in the wrong way. Similarly, David was too fear stricken to even mutter a single word. His heart hammered against his chest and mouth gasped loudly to hold his breath.

.....

But the two men behind King Richard were still not staying calm anymore. One of them walked forward to bring the injection from his pocket and injected it in Amelia’s body without waiting for any reaction.

“Ah..” Amelia felt the perking of the needle and this took a yell from her lips. However she was already feeling numb to all the worries except knowing one of the princes might have used some special medicine upon her to make her say the truth.

Similarly Prince injected another needle in David’s body and he stayed there like a statue. He showed no sign of moving and neither did he revolt back

“Give them some more amount, Robert. I don’t think they will be able to speak in this...” Richard commented but Robert was under with his techniques.

In the back of his mind, Robert knew the more they give, the chance of them going crazy will rise. They wanted truth so that they can evaluate the situation, not to let them die in front of their eyes before confirming what they wish to.

Seeing that Robert showed no sign of stepping back, Richard sighed. He averted his eyes at his second son, who stood motionless. The expressions weren’t even present but King didn’t comment.

He brought his attention back to the lowly couple kneeling on the ground with their hands tied at the back and eyes blind folded.

On second thought, the King ordered, “Open their blindfold now.”

“Alright.” Robert did as he says and the blind folds were removed from Amelia and David’s eyes. Their skin lost color and their lips turned white because of fear.

The moment the black cloth dropped from their eyes, horror replaced their fear. Something inflammable bursted under their heart as Amelia couldn’t help but expel, “KING RICHARD! LORD!!!”

“I want answers, not respect from an ex-servant of the queen.”

His words bruised Amelia’s wound but she felt the sweat accumulating on her back, “W-what kind of truth, King?”

“Why did you kidnap Jennifer from us? You know she is Our Ava..” King Richard’s eyes reacted for answers and Amelia sworded, “We didn’t! That’s our daughter, Jennifer!”

“Dare to lie on my face, Amelia?” King Richard’s anger rose to his brain. How can they openly say that his and Queen’s daughter was actually not his Ava?

Out of the sudden, the servants of the late queen showed such audacity with them?

Amelia swallowed hard on hearing his words. She turned her face to look at the dumbfounded David. Amelia nudged him slightly and brought him out from the daze in which he slept before he cried loudly, “LORD! Please forgive us! We haven’t done anything wrong!”

“Nothing wrong?” Richard’s smile turned frosty as a wicked smile traced his lips, “Then why is your daughter’s DNA matching with mine? Taylor.... such a nice surname. But tell me, why did you suddenly elope together just after queen was murdered on her way to meet her family?”

“I find too many coincidences happening all together. Were theyy simply coincidences or a planned murder of queen and.... you assited the other party?”

King’s each word hit David and Amelia’s hearts as they started to lose the color of their face. It wouldn’t be wrong to say that both of them had done something unbelievable in the past.

But they had hidden too well and escaped on time.Never did they imagine their past to haunt them back and capture them in such a way where they would needed to confess each and every detail.

Now within time, the medicine inside their body started to react. Amelia understood the type of medicine given to them. It was a medicine which will ultimately push them to speak the truth!

They were given the choice to say everything honestly, otherwise, they’ll be pushed to do so.

Amelia lifted her eyelashes to look at the King and his two sons. Thinking of all the possibilities that had surfaced in her brain, she wasn’t in the mood to take any chance.

Amelia made a pity face,she said, “If you want to know....Yes, we were together with the Queen when she was sent to the maternal house.”

“Yes, Jennifer is Ava, your daughter, King Richard. She has been the Princess of Saskatoon Kingdom since ages. But we kept her alive and safe from everything. We wanted her to live a normal life after the Queen’s death.”

“Is that so? Then apprised me about the reasons why two servants of the palace married after eloping? I must assume you both could have married and stayed in the Kingdom too. The business you established was set up by David but from where did you gather so much capital to do so?”

All that Richard said was enough to freeze Amelia. She never thought they would get into the details of their past actions and dug so much information on them. ‘It’s like they already know the answers and I have nothing to say...’

In contrast to her expressions, Richard took a step forward. The gun was still residing in his hand as his eyes narrowed, “There are too many loopholes.”

“What are you going to hide from me? That you helped our enemy to kill our late Queen and took a lump sum from them to settle in Smith land with my daughter so that we would take her as dead?”
