When Derila returned to William's Castle and saw Clark weakly in his wheelchair,
arranging things, she scolded in exasperation, "Clark, how can you get up when you're
so badly injured? Don't you want to live?"
"Ms.Feroma…" Clark was so weak that it took half a breath to say a word, "They went
outside to buy medicine and didn't get any of the same, I was in a hurry and that's why I
got up to deliver."
"What? Those medicines are all very ordinary medicines, why can't you buy them?"
Derila asked in confusion, "There are pharmacies everywhere, if it was in Solarain,
you can even order them online and have them delivered directly to your home."
"Ms.Feroma, we went to purchase medicine in the past two days and found that all those
medicines in the market were sold out."
"Some medicines are not sold out, they are not sold to us, we clearly saw them in the
pharmacy and the boss put them away when he saw us ask."
Several attendants explained the situation, one by one, all of them anxious —
"Someone must have greeted them in advance and deliberately told them not to sell it to
us."
"Those people just want to kill us!!!"
The attendants were indignant and agitated.
"Shut up." Clark shouted lowly in exasperation, "Don't say such demoralising things,
we'll be able to think of something."
"Yes." The attendants didn't dare say any more.
Clark: "Stand down all, when His Highness returns, I will discuss it with him."
"Yes."
The attendants all retreated, and Clark covered his wound, sweating like rain, his whole
body was on the verge of collapse.
Derila immediately called for someone to wheel him into the ward, treating his
wounds and giving him fluids for treatment, and also instructed, "Rest in peace, I will
discuss with William about the medicine."
"Thank you, Ms.Feroma." Clark fainted before he could finish his words.
Derila looked at Clark in this state, and then looked at the others worried, her heart
was very uncomfortable. She just couldn't understand, what had William done that was
so hurtful that those people had to get him killed, and everyone else in his castle.
"His Highness has returned!" The sound of a report came from outside, followed by the
entourage pushing William in.
William had gotten wet from the rain, his suit was soaked and his hair was beaded with
water, but he didn't seem to notice and asked about Clark as soon as he entered.
Derila explained briefly and said softly, "I've just checked him over, he's fine now,
let's go out and talk, don't disturb his rest."
"You go to your room and take a shower and change your clothes, we'll meet you in the
study later." William said thoughtfully.
"Okay." Derila didn't think much of it and went straight to his room.
While taking a bath, Derila thought back on the events of the day and remembered
what the old king had said, brewing it over and over again, always feeling that
something was wrong.
After thinking about it, Derila suddenly realized something, maybe, probably,
possibly, from the beginning, William had come to her with a purpose and
premeditation.
And, he might actually be using her relationship with Daemon in the hope of getting the
King's attention that way.
Also, Clark's going to the king to report the situation may not have been an
unauthorized action on his own, it may have been his intention as well.
All these things, in fact, were traceable and not difficult to detect.
Derila did not understand before, out of trust in William.
In addition, she had always been simple in nature and had no disputes of interest with
people, so she was not willing to think the worst of people.
But she was not stupid.
With a little careful deduction, she could still understand.
Now that Derila had discovered the truth, she was uncomfortable in her heart and
felt that her friendship and sincerity had been taken advantage of.
She had trusted William so much and helped him with all her heart, no matter what
others said, she had never doubted it, but he was lying to her and using her.
But the thing was, now that she had found out the truth, she didn't seem to resent
William that much.
Instead, she sympathised with him.
