Master of his heart (Brielle and Max)

When Brielle stepped out of the shower, the water had already turned cold. She collapsed onto her bed and, miraculously, fell asleep without her heart aching for once.

Little did she know, her recent comments had already sparked a major online controversy. Media outlets that initially blamed her for Prince Arthur's gunshot wound and believed she should become the First Lady were now in complete disarray after King's latest social media post. King's second post read, "First Lady? Your prince hasn't even warmed up his seat yet. Stop throwing yourselves at him, alright?"

His words left the media speechless. Sure, Arthur was the heir apparent, but officially becoming President would depend on the next congressional vote. However, Arthur had always been the public face of the North American monarchy, leading many to assume he was already President.

North American media, finding no grounds to argue, criticized King for his reckless attack on their monarchy, suggesting it could strain relations between the two nations. But King's next move was even more audacious-he revealed a treaty signed by Arthur himself, casually yet impactfully.

"As friends, this is the treaty Arthur promised, agreeing to purchase our oil at triple the price. Such a strong relationship can't be disturbed by a few words from me. Saudi Arabia and North America are eternal allies," King posted. Treaties like this are usually private and considered state secrets. For King to openly reveal it on social media for the whole world to see was a shocker. It not only surprised everyone but also plunged Prince Arthur into hot water.

Where would the money for this three-year oil treaty come from? The pockets of ordinary citizens? If it was national money, why wasn't there any media coverage before the royal family made this decision?

Arthur, now in the hospital, had his phone blowing up with calls from congress members demanding explanations. If he couldn't clarify the treaty's details, those who once supported him might turn their backs.

Arthur had never anticipated King would pull such a stunt. Grinding his teeth in rage until he tasted blood, he cursed, "Damn it! This unpredictable man!"This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Not just Arthur, but even Dustin was caught off guard by King's bold strategy. Disclosing such agreements was a risky move, both morally and strategically. This treaty, signed under pressure by Arthur, minimized King's self-damage. But King seemed unbound by moral constraints.

Watching the unfolding drama, Dustin couldn't help but chuckle. Arthur, overwhelmed by calls in the hospital, spat out blood in frustration and passed out-not pretending this time, but genuinely unconscious.

Consequently, North American

media reported a deterioration in Prince Arthur's condition. Meredith was summoned to the hospital. The treaty had caused an uproar within the royal family, and everyone was waiting for Arthur to wake up and

provide explanations. But Arthur was

genuinely knocked out.

Even though Meredith understood the circumstances under which the treaty was signed, signed meant signed. Now, the royal family had to clarify not just the mountain issue but also justify the treaty to their citizens-a complete mess.

Arthur's fainting spell lasted until the evening, and he woke up with chest pain. "Tell Myles to make his move, now! Damn it! Damn it!" Arthur yelled at Meredith, his frustration evident.

Meredith had no choice but to call

e'

Myles in his presence. "Bro, King's back in Saudi Arabia, preparing for Eid al-Adha. He probably won't be back for a while. With the online chaos and the royal family's image tarnished, the congress members are having second thoughts about you. I heard they're considering adding more candidates."

Only those within the royal family knew that originally there were just two candidates, Arthur and Irene. But now, with Irene missing and Arthur almost guaranteed the presidency, King's treaty debacle caused some congress members to reconsider Arthur's suitability, deciding to introduce another candidate.

This posed a significant threat to Arthur, as public opinion was increasingly against him, and his approval ratings were steadily falling.
