The Betrayed Princess Rising

Chapter 101

3rd Person’s POV

Returning from the clinic, Lylah went to meet Iris to share the good news.

The moment Iris heard it, her face lit up with excitement, her happiness impossible to hide.

“We have to celebrate!”

Lylah laughed softly. “It’s not that big-”

Finished

“It is!” Iris insisted. “I know the perfect place. My brother’s friend owns one of the best restaurants in Lunaris. People usually have to book months in advance…” She smiled proudly.

“But we don’t.”

After that, the two of them left together, heading toward the restaurant.

In the same restaurant, inside the executive private suite, Alpha Eldric of Ironcrest was having dinner with Professor Corvin Vale to address the unpleasant incident that had occurred in his labo a few days ago.

Between the two men sat Cora.

“I sincerely apologize for my daughter’s mistake,” Eldric said, his voice calm but firm. “She understands her place. It will not happen again.”

Vale swirled the dark wine in his glass, his gaze unconcerned. “It was a minor disruption. She will improve -I will personally see to that,” he said smoothly. “After all, your generous investment in my laboratory deserves results.”

Eldric inclined his head. “That is truly an honor for me.”

“After this MDT project concludes, the senior mentors and I will publish our findings.” Vale smiled faintly. “One of the top ten journals of Healing Studies.”

Even Eldric leaned forward slightly.

“If Cora proves herself,” Vale added, “I will allow her to join the publication.”

Cora’s heart slammed once.

But her face never betrayed it.

“That is a rare privilege, Alpha Eldric.” Vale continued. “So far, only one of my students has earned that distinction. Thane Blackridge.”

Beside him, Cora lowered her gaze with practiced grace.

“I will not disappoint you,” she said softly. “Professor, Father.”

As the conversation between the two men carried on, Cora quietly rose from her seat and excused herself.

Her heels making only the faintest sound against the polished floor as she slipped out of the private suite.

This restaurant belonged to Victor Ross.
