Nicholas, stepping closer, tried to reassure him. "You fainted during the trial. The physicians are taking care of you now. Just rest."
Dominic's brow furrowed as he tried to piece together his fragmented thoughts as he looked at Nicholas "Do I know you?"
Daphne's heart ached at the sight of her brother's distress. "What?! Does he have amnesia!" she asked joining in his distress
Nicholas smirks before continuing to say
"Oh no brother, that's unfortunate but it doesn't seem that bad since he seemed to remember who we are, or at least our names
He looks at Daphne and then says
"The physician did tell me that it's possible for this to occur, he said he may have amnesia due to trauma in the worst case, or he might have selective memory in the least case"
Daphne looks at Nicholas with stress and fear evident on her face
Nicholas who was worried about his sister pats her head and replies her sudden manner saying
"But don't worry Daphne, the physician said he will recover in a year at most and I will surely inform the emperor of your condition and he will surely postpone your trial"
Daphne quickly regains her composure because of the news of Dominic getting better sooner or later and then hits Nicholas on the head before asking him in an annoyed manner
"Why are you bringing up the trial now, you insensitive fool?"
Nicholas then replies his sister
"Ouch, that hurts. You know that's a criminal offense, don't you?"
Daphne then answers his question with a loud remark
"Then arrest me, you jerk! Stupid Crown Prince!"
Dominic looks at them with a discerning look thinking to himself
"Nicholas is different from the memories I saw of him but Daphne seems to be the same though. It will be best to act like I can't remember most things because I'm not even sure if these memories are arranged properly or are even true at all, I don't want to end up causing suspicion when I don't remember something happening later on, thank God I listened to Nicholas and the physician's conversation when that thought I was still unconscious"
Daphne soon notices her brother's unusual discerning and untrusting look, feeling hurt she says
"I'm sure you need time alone rig—-
Dominic nods yes quickly before his sister could even finish talking
Noticing her brother's quick reaction she finds his behavior strange yet adorable and concords
"We will leave you to it then"
Daphne drags Nicholas out of the room and they leave
As the siblings faced the uncertainty of Dominic's condition, their determination to uncover the truth about all that was going on grew stronger.
The royal palace, once a place of grandeur and authority, now felt like the setting for a new, unsettling chapter in their lives.
