As a prince, this evil deed is simply not worth mentioning.

But for Penny, it would be better to kill her than let her commit herself to such a bad prince.

After these few days of contact, she already knew Prince Carter's habits.

He is rude and fierce, without any of the restraint and etiquette that a nobleman should have.

No wonder he is nicknamed the "barbarian prince" in the royal family.

Marquis Henry did not know this.

So these days, the entire Lancaster family is in a depressed atmosphere.

Penny is a delicate flower that has not experienced the bloody wind and frost, retaining the purest and most beautiful fragrance.

So she was almost distressed and couldn't sleep day and night.

The other half in her heart is by no means such a bad prince, but a chic and suave knight.

Just when she couldn't sleep and was worried about this.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door behind me.

"Dong dong..."

The crisp knock on the door made Penny's heart tighten.

Prince Carter now also lives in the castle. This is the darkest moment before the morning sun has arrived.

I'm sure it's the bad guy with evil intentions.

Just when she was about to blow out the candles on the table and get into bed, pretending to be asleep.

"Penny, it's me."

Father's steady voice came from outside the door.

Penny immediately breathed a sigh of relief. She put on a flowered cloak to cover her body under the light gauze clothes. She opened the door and welcomed her father in.

After closing the door, he turned around, knelt down, made a ladylike salute, and said hello to his father.

"Father."

"Um!"

Marquis Henry nodded solemnly.

He walked to the table and looked at the two-thirds of the candlestick on the table that was burning.

He turned around and asked with some distress.

"Still unable to sleep tonight?"

This question actually does not require an answer, otherwise he would not come to his daughter's boudoir late at night.

Penny showed a peaceful smile, held her hands in front of her, and stood behind her father.

Looking at his daughter's smile, Marquis Henry felt as if an invisible hand was pinching his heart, making him unable to breathe and extremely uncomfortable.

The athletic meet and noble banquet were originally held to find a good son-in-law for Penny.

Moreover, he had been particularly worried about the second prince before (recalling the relevant content in chapters 617~618).

But I didn’t expect that no matter what I was afraid of, the damn second prince would not let go of the innocent Penny after all!

This is not only a matter of taking sides completely, but the most important thing is that Penny is not willing at all!

But the pressure from the second prince was huge.

Behind him stood Archduke Jonathan, one of the three princes.

Once they break their skin or rebel, the consequences will be unbearable for the Lancaster family.

So Marquis Henry was also very painful in his heart.

He can only choose to sacrifice the life-long happiness of his beloved little daughter in exchange for a temporary survival.

And from now on, the Lancastrians must fight for the kingdom with all their might.

Otherwise, when Carter fails in his bid for the king, the Lancaster family will also be destroyed.

However, just a few hours ago, things took a new turn.

Henry, Marquess of Lancaster, received a secret letter from a giant city in the east tens of thousands of kilometers away.

The sender is Anna Pendragon, the third princess.

She suddenly extended an olive branch to the Marquis of Lancaster.

Because she knew Carter was staying in the giant city of Lentax.

In her letter she proposed a rather bold plan.

She wants to get the Lancaster family back on their side and help her put Prince Carter under house arrest.

At the same time, Princess Anna will send elite reinforcements to support the giant city of Lentax.

After all, the eastern coast is not that far from here and can almost be connected quickly.

Support and response are also very quick.

The most important thing is that Princess Anna also has forces behind her that are no less powerful than Grand Duke Jonathan!

But if Marquis Henry really cooperates with the third princess to capture the second prince.

That means that the battle for the king within the Kingdom of Avalon has moved from darkness to light.

Large-scale wars and tense confrontations will break out at any time!

So Marquis Henry was also hesitant.

He knew that his youngest daughter Penny was deeply harassed by Prince Carter and had been unable to sleep at night these days.

So he planned to come to see her and tell Penny about Princess Anna's letter.

Let's hear what our precious daughter has to say.

But just now, when Marquis Henry saw Penny's haggard look and still gentle smile.

He suddenly made up his mind!

There was still silence in the room, because Marquis Henry had not yet thought of how to speak.

"call!"

He exhaled heavily and then sat on the chair next to the table.

"Penny, tell father..."

"Are you deeply troubled by Prince Carter?"

"I want to hear your truth."

Marquis Henry asked solemnly.

Penny slowly lowered her head.

When he raised his head again, there were two faint tears on his cheeks.

But the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and she still smiled so gently.

"For the sake of the family, Penny is willing to accept any arrangement..."

"As the family motto says: 'The storm is coming, I will protect the Lancaster family!'"

"Penny is willing to defend the family tradition!"

She spoke softly, but Marquis Henry heard a hint of determination in her voice.

"The storm is coming, I will protect the Lancaster family..."

He murmured and repeated.

His dark and tired eyes suddenly burst into life.

"Penny, you're right."

"The Lancastrians fear no storm!"

"Look at this and tell me what you think."

"We should not wait passively for the storm to come!"

Marquis Henry took out the parchment letter that was almost crumpled into rags from his arms.

Penny stretched out her hand and smoothed it carefully, and then started to read carefully line by line.

His expression gradually changed from a slightly excited and calm expression to one of surprise and surprise.

Two or three minutes later, after reading the entire letter, she suddenly raised her head and looked at her father.

At the same time, Marquis Henry was also looking at her.

Looking into each other's eyes, the father and daughter understood each other's thoughts at the same time.
