Following the exchange of pleasantries and assurances between Prince Connor and Cedric Ventor, the prince's gaze returned to Mila, a hint of concern flickering in his eyes.
"Evangeline," he began softly, his voice carrying a note of seriousness. "I believe it would be wise for you to transfer to a new suite within the palace—one that offers enhanced security measures."
Mila's brows furrowed slightly in surprise at the sudden suggestion, but she quickly masked her reaction with a nod of understanding.
"Of course, Connor," she replied evenly, though her mind raced with questions about the necessity of such precautions.
Cedric Ventor, sensing Mila's hesitance, interjected with a reassuring smile. "I agree with His Highness's suggestion," he stated firmly, his tone brooking no argument.
