Chapter 1584: I'm Sorry, Father

When Rowan heard this, his expression was calm and his heart wastranquil. He had no interest in the royal inheritance rights. However, hecared about the whereabouts of his sister Princess Annie... She hadbeen missing for so many years, where was she? Was she dead oralive?

The king's gaze fell on Rowan, his eyes a bit stern and cold, staring athim steadily and somewhat annoyed by his expression.

Everyone was waiting for the king's response.

"Yes," the king's voice was cold as he said, "If Prince Louis insists ongiving up the right of succession, Princess Annie would become the firstheir. If Princess Annie gave it up too, then Prince Taylor would becomethe first heir."

What was this about?

Katharine almost wanted to curse!

So it seemed Taylor was third in line?

Princess Annie? Everyone looked at each other, whispering about thisperson that most had forgotten existed. Princess Annie disappearedduring an outing when she was three years old, and Queen Elsa hadbeen bedridden with illness ever since... eventually passing away fromgrief.

Louis had been found after leaving the royal family for years, what ifthis Princess Annie came back one day too!

Then Taylor's position would become more uncertain.

This made Katharine, as the mother, feel uneasy, as if she had been hiton the head!

The king was in poor health and could not sit for long. He hadsummoned everyone today and announced what needed to beannounced.

So the king looked around at everyone and spoke again, "You're alldismissed, go take care of your duties. Louis, you stay, everyone elseleave."

Katharine wanted to speak but held back, as everyone else bowed andbegan heading out.

Katharine and Taylor deliberately glanced at Rowan before leaving,remembering the face of this number one enemy.

Eden noticed the expressions of this mother and son. After everyoneleft, he and Arthur also stepped out.

The palace doors closed. The spacious hall was left with only KingBertie and the father and son Rowan.

Bertie sat in the chair, his expression still stern as he stared at thepaternity test report in his hand. The next second, he tore the reportinto pieces, "I'm sorry, I just wanted everyone to be convinced, after allyou've been gone so long."

In fact, he recognized his son.

Likewise, Rowan could recognize his father at first glance. The kinglooked the same as when he was young, only much older now.

The king tore up the paternity test results, stood up, and flung thepieces upwards. The fragments drifted down like snowflakes ontoRowan's hair and shoulders.

The air was suddenly filled with grief.

Rowan's legs weakened and he knelt before the king, “I'm sorry, Father,for worrying you all these years." He deeply blamed himself.

“You're too willful!" The king loved, pained and pitied him, "How couldyou be so heartless as to disappear for so many years?"

"I hated the royal disputes, I wanted an ordinary life," Rowan said softly."An ordinary life where you didn't even want your father?" The king wasnearly angered to death. His cold eyes stared at him, his face eventwitching in pain.

"..." He had no words.

“If your uncle hadn't found your whereabouts, were you planning on noteven attending my funeral?!"

The king was extremely heartbroken. “I remarried, but it was five yearsafter your mother passed away! I'm a man, you should have..."

“I can understand that." Rowan looked up and sincerely interruptedhim, "Please don't blame yourself for this anymore. Your happiness iscertainly my wish."

"Louis..."

The king didn't know what to say for a moment. He couldn't accept hisson disappearing for so many years. "I loved your mother, I love you, Ilove Annie, but you've all left me... Did you ever think of me as a personof flesh and blood with feelings? Think of my longing and missing onthose long nights?"

Rowan had no rebuttal to his father's accusations. He hung his head,frowning, and also felt very bad inside.
