The Promise Of Happiness

Chapter 1158

At that point, Cynthia felt as though her eyeballs were going to pop out.

She would have collapsed to the ground if Mikhail had not been holding on to her like a python. The attendant's right! I gave my entire life to this man when I agreed to be imprisoned in this glorified cage. I used to think I was the victor, but time has shown me that I've won nothing but a useless title. I didn't care for friendship or family when I had them, and now I have none.

“Mikhail... Just... kill me!” uttered Cynthia with a broken heart before slowly shutting her eyes. Now that I'm empty, desperate, and miserable, maybe dying in Mikhail's hands like this isn't such a bad thing!

Hesitation started to fill Mikhail's eyes as he gazed coldly at the aged Cynthia.

Meanwhile, the attendant continued to grovel and repeatedly begged for mercy, hoping to save the lady.

Just when Cynthia thought she was about to die, Mikhail abruptly released her throat and caused the frail lady to fall to the ground like a dried-up leaf.

“Cough! Cough!” Finally able to breathe normally again, Cynthia coughed while catching her breath.

Her throat was so severely injured that she felt as though it got cut with knives when she gulped.

“Cynthia, I'm only letting you go because of what you did for me!” stated Mikhail cruelly. “However, from now onward, you're no longer the chief concubine of Loang. Get out of Luna Palace immediately, and don't ever let me see you again!”

With that, Mikhail waved his hand and strode away.

The king never looked at Cynthia again ever since.

“Are you okay, Lady Cynthia?” inquired the female attendant as she hurried over to help Cynthia get up.

“Haha!” At that moment, Cynthia could not help but laugh out loud. “He decided to kick me out just because he thinks I hurt someone who looks like that woman.”

“Lady Cynthia...”

“How? How did it come to this?” questioned Cynthia in disbelief while holding onto the attendant's shoulder. “I'm the one who's been by his side for the longest! Not only did I sacrifice my family, but I also betrayed my closest friend for him. In the end, I'm still no better than a dead person.”

Cynthia thought her heart had hardened enough that she would feel no pain, yet her past wounds never healed. It turns out that a broken heart can still be broken!

“Lady Cynthia, don't be discouraged. His Majesty was probably just blinded by anger. When he changes his mind, you can come back,” suggested the attendant as she helped the lady get up from the floor, unsure how best to comfort Cynthia.

“That won't be necessary.”

After wiping the tears from her face, Cynthia took the jewelry off her hands, neck, and ears and handed them to her trusted aide, for she would not need them after leaving Luna Palace. Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.

Natalie's death isn't such a bad thing. Mikhail will never know that woman gave birth to a daughter and that the daughter was Natalie. So what if he's a king? He has completely no idea that Natalie died right under his nose. Cynthia then cackled with a head full of disheveled hair, gloating over Mikhail's ignorance.

Meanwhile, Samuel and Yandel were notified by the police to identify a corpse at the designated place.

Samuel froze like a statue as if he had been struck by lightning, his heart beyond broken.

“Are you kidding me? Do you mean to tell me that Boss is dead?” exclaimed Yandel furiously before punching the police officer at the door in the face.
