“Is she?” I knew the answer deep within my heart, but I am not sure. I am waiting for my mother to confirm my thoughts.
“Erik’s biological mother” Mother answered.
Sure enough, as I thought. We’ve never met Erik’s biological mother, but when I look at the age and appearance of the photos, I can indeed say it was her.
Mother went on to say, “Find her before I die!”
I froze for a while. Looking at my mother, I knew that she was serious I suddenly realized my expression, so I hurriedly squeezed out some smiles. I said, “Oh, this task is so simple. I am the prince of Aston. I can find this Woman easily.”
My mother’s expression did not change, and she seriously said, “Maybe, you only have a few days!”
I didn’t argue with her. Instead, I looked at her and ask, “Why are you looking for her?”
Mother took my hand and patted it, “Erik needs her!”
Edward’s Point of View
Around 9:30 am, they finished preparing everything. I was in the reception room of the royal hotel to have my live global interview with the famous host of BCC.
It’s primary purpose was to publicize some domestic and foreign policies of our country, and it is more inclined to promote the national brand. After all, the Aston Kingdom has a limited influence on the world. We need to let more people know about us. BCC sent Alen Sethi, the world-famous talk show host.
She is a fascinating woman, profound and capable, and knows everything. The word intellectual was not enough to describe her. We had a good chat, and the live broadcast atmosphere was also light. She asked me about my country’s future prospects. So, I told her that I would undoubtedly become the next king, and I would make Aston stronger!
Someone asked online, “Will your brother pose a threat to your throne?”
I am very confident to answer, “We are very close, and he supports me more than anyone else! Moreover, he has his own life, and he doesn’t care about politics!”
Just when I was talking to everyone in Kan Kan about Erik and me. Erik arrived. Dressed in an elegant suit and has an exquisite hairstyle. His leather shoes makes a firm noise.
“Hi, Edward!” He came up to me, and his eyes seemed to be burning.
I felt worried but also replied, “We are talking about you, together with netizens all over the world!”
He smiled at the corner of his mouth, “I’m watching, too. You said I supported you and said I didn’t care about politics?”
“Yes! Erik, what can I do for you? Can you wait until the interview is over?” I asked him.
He suddenly pulled out a dark pistol from his waist, pointed it directly at me and said. “I think you may end earlier than the show!”
Everyone was alarmed. The other people started to run away. I can see Alen from here. She was shocked and scared. Then Erik pulled the trigger of his pistol. The assassination of Aston’s Royal Prince was broadcast live all over the world. Three million netizens witnessed how Erik shot me.
The news made headlines in major media. Within one day, almost everyone in the world knew the news.
I was sent to the hospital while Erik was sent to prison. My father was furious. He said it made him lose his face. After four hours, I finally left the hospital. Then, with my staff’s help, I decided to go to the prison where Erik was held.
We let the warden find a particular room. He gave us a room, but the room looks like a factory rather than a room. This is the assembly line of prison inmates’ labor. But, now it has become a huge empty room. We’re going to have secret training here. Train Erik.
Yes, all this is just one of our tricks. The gun he used and my wounds are from my Hollywood friends, specializing in effect and props. It’s also a coincidence that they have to shoot on the snowy mountains of Aston. I permitted them, so when I asked them for help, they lent me a hand.
Making friends is the first step to solve the problem. We need to discuss the following plan in the factory building. The warden said that he will put the confidant of the leader of the terrorist organization in Prince Erik’s cell. And the rest depends on us.
“Don’t worry! I am determined!” I told the warden. We have gone through all our plans and found them perfect.
Finally, we asked the warden to leave. In the empty room, only I and Erik were left.
I told him, “Every step of this plan is very thrilling. If you make a little mistake, you may die!”
“Be careful!” He was very confident to reply, “I am looking forward to the next special training!”
“It is the old agent Cazola who especially trains you. As long as you learn all the things he taught you, there must be no problem!”
“I will do it!” Erik has always been confident.
