Chapter 123: Chapter 123A second time was less of a coincidence to Zayne. They had to start looking into Lady Ambrose as it was the one clue they kept coming across.
"If you are going to see the lord and his wife, I suggest that you do not as they are a private family. He will not let you in his gates and if you bother his family, he will attack. It’s rumoured that Lord Ambrose isn’t close to the king anymore so he will not care to please you," said Charlotte.
All the locals respected the family’s wishes to be private so Zayne had to do the same if he didn’t want any trouble.
"Thanks for the warning but where can I find this family?" Zayne asked, not worried about the lord.
If he could find a portrait of Lady Ambrose, it would help him know if the trip was worth it.

"It is not expensive for me. Janice buys you dresses that she can afford. Why can’t I do the same for you with what I can afford? I have plenty of money for this kingdom which would be useless for when I leave. Let me spend it how I see fit," said Zayne.
Rose didn’t understand why Zayne would not just spend the money on himself. There was plenty for him to take home like his other treasures. "You should spend your money on yourself or save it for if there is a day you return. Why would you waste your money on me? It is-"
"Because I like you," Zayne confessed, his words clear so she would not misunderstand this time.
