The Author And Her Protagonist

Eugene Laverty is not a particularly special prince. He lacked any merits or talents, and only his good looks distinguished him from the other Princes. This is not something to be proud of.

His mother, a concubine, had always told him as a child that he needed to work hard in school if he wanted to be liked by the emperor.

Eugene understands that he is the foundation of his mother’s hopes, so he works harder. His mother, on the other hand, was a volatile woman. For example, if the emperor rejected her or she was shunned by the other concubines, the woman would vent her rage on Eugene. No matter how badly Eugene was injured, the woman would not stop hitting him until she was exhausted.

Eugene gradually developed a different personality as a result of the intense pressure and physical and mental abuse he endured. He was initially friendly and cheerful, but he gradually became quiet and introverted.

When Eugene reached the age of 19, the emperor planned to send one of the princes to a small kingdom under his control. The emperor then gathered all the princes, including Eugene, and presented them with a choice.

The other princes chose to stay in the empire despite being offered high positions with elite retainers if they were willing to leave. Going to a small kingdom was the same as denying them the chance to ascend to the imperial throne.

Eugene was the sole exception. Eugene’s decision pleased the emperor, of course.

Eugene did not see his mother on the day he left. Eugene was a little disappointed, but he kept it to himself. After making all of the necessary preparations, he and his band of followers left the empire for the Zizvania Kingdom.

–

Eugene becomes the crown prince of the Zizvania kingdom, as promised by the emperor.

Even though the king of Zizvania disliked him, he remained respectful and did not dare to harm Eugene. Eugene is even offered a private residence by the king.

Eugene agrees, but he constructs the house himself.

Eugene constructed his own small palace on the palace grounds. The palace was not luxurious, but it was very comfortable, which was exactly what Eugene desired.

Eugene was the only person in Zizvania who dared to cause trouble. Despite the fact that he had no friends, he was content with his new life.

Until he noticed a little girl circling in the courtyard of his little palace one day. Eugene was nearly enraged that the little girl was trampling the freshly laid garden grass. Eugene held back his rage when he saw how thin the girl was.

Eugene wanted to reprimand him, but when the girl saw him, she bowed and spoke in a slightly trembling voice.

“Hello, my apologies. I was looking for Princess Yvette’s cat when I got lost.”

Her voice is soft and sweet. Eugene’s heart skips a beat.

“Become disoriented? Do you have any idea where this is?” He inquired.

The young lady nodded. “I know. This is the Crown Prince’s residence.”

“Then do you know who I am?” Eugene inquired once more.

“I know. You hold the title of Crown Prince.”

Eugene cocked his brow. He assumed she was aware of who she was but showed no fear. Eugene was confident that despite his trembling voice, the girl was not afraid of him.

He was suddenly drawn to the little girl.

“Because we trespassed, you should state your name as a courtesy,” Eugene suggested.

“Your Honor, yes. Claudia Rowe is my name.”

Eugene’s acquaintance was cut short when the king’s messenger arrived.

Eugene dashed towards the palace, not forgetting to give the little girl a small smile.

–

Eugene was requested by the king for a reason. He needed Eugene’s assistance to bring the Marquess of Northland down.

Eugene has no real advantage in this case, but since he has nothing else important to do right now, he agrees.

With all of the schemes, the Marquess’s family was eventually executed, except for his son.

–

Eugene grew accustomed to life in the Zizvania kingdom month by month. He occasionally noticed the little girl, Claudia Rowe, running in the distance with a group of other princesses.

Eugene occasionally chuckled. Claudia, in his opinion, was just like him, pathetic. Has no advantages, talent, affection, or even a beautiful face. He couldn’t help but bow in front of the other princesses, just as he was the indirect loser among the other princes.

Then time seems to fly by. Eugene, who was used to watching Claudia, unknowingly fell in love with her.

Eugene is totally ignorant of this until someone named Edgar Baldwin approaches the king and requests a marriage to Claudia Rowe.

Eugene couldn’t put his finger on what he was feeling at the time. All he knew was that his rage flared up now and then.

Then he discovered that the king had plans to harm Edgar Baldwin. In addition to the king, the stupid Third Princess wanted to try putting her hand down. Eugene, on the other hand, sees this as an opportunity.

He knows Yvette is in love with Edgar Baldwin and plans to steal Claudia’s marriage. Eugene believes it would be fantastic if Yvette could separate Edgar and Claudia. Then, from the shadows, he secretly assisted Yvette.

But there was one surprise. Eugene had no idea a woman’s heart could be so lethal.

When Simon told him that Princess Yvette was plotting to murder Claudia Rowe, it rained heavily.

Eugene initially thought Yvette couldn’t do something like murder, so he let it go. However, Simon returns in the evening, telling him that Claudia is indeed dying at the hands of Yvette.

Eugene only realized the gravity of the situation at that point. The man ran towards Claudia’s small house, regardless of the rain. When he arrived, he saw Claudia’s wounded body drooping in Edgar’s arms.

–

Claudia passed away that night.

–

A year later, he learned that Edgar Baldwin had visited the palace. Eugene guessed the man’s intentions and dispatched someone to offer Edgar assistance.

Edgar concurs, and they work together. Eugene devised schemes, including bringing in Yvette, who had married far away in a neighboring country. He made his move after completing all of the members of the royal family.

In one night, the entire royal family was exhausted.Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

Eugene takes the throne in the place of the deceased king. He replaced almost all cabinet ministers with people from his own party. He changed the rules for a lot of money.

Eugene ruled smoothly because no one dared to oppose him.

–

Eugene is a married man with several children.

Eugene abdicated when he was 53 years old due to illness.

The once-handsome and daring man could only lie helpless on the bed. She cried all night.

In fact, he had always regretted Claudia’s death over the years. If he hadn’t been selfish, the girl might still be alive and happily married, albeit not to him. Eugene apologized profusely.

“If I had another chance, I would not have made the same mistake. I apologize, Claudia.”

Eugene died the same year.
