Everyone Mocked The Girl The Prince Chose… Until Her Secret Exposed The Entire Royal Family
Chapter 2: The Secret Behind Isabella’s Identity
After the selection ceremony ended, Isabella was taken to a private room inside the palace.
She expected the prince to explain why he defended her.
Instead, Prince Adrian asked a question she never expected.
“Who told you about my mother?”
Isabella froze.
“Your mother?”
The prince looked serious.
“Twenty years ago, my mother died under mysterious circumstances.”
“Before she died, only one person claimed something was wrong.”
“Your mother.”
Isabella stepped back.
“My mother was just a doctor.”
The prince nodded.
“Exactly.”
“That is why nobody believed her.”
Years ago, Isabella’s mother worked inside the royal palace as a physician.
She discovered that the former queen’s illness was not natural.
Someone had poisoned her slowly.
But before she could reveal the truth, she was accused of making false claims.
The royal family turned against her.
She lost her position.
She left the palace.
And she spent the rest of her life carrying a secret nobody wanted to hear.
Isabella remembered her mother’s sadness.
She remembered how people treated her family differently.
But she never knew why.
“Why are you telling me this?” Isabella asked.
Prince Adrian looked at her.
“Because your mother left something behind.”
He handed her an old envelope.
Inside was a letter.
Isabella opened it with trembling hands.
The handwriting was familiar.
It was her mother’s.
The first sentence made her heart stop.
“Isabella, if you are reading this, it means the person who destroyed our family is still inside the palace.”
She looked up.
The prince’s expression was serious.
“Your mother spent years trying to expose the truth.”
“But someone powerful stopped her.”
Isabella felt overwhelmed.
She came to the palace thinking she was only joining a selection.
She never expected to uncover a mystery connected to her own family.
Before she could ask another question, the palace doors suddenly opened.
A royal guard rushed inside.
“Your Highness, we have a problem.”
The prince turned.
“What happened?”
The guard looked at Isabella.
“The royal council has discovered her identity.”
“And they are demanding that she leave the palace immediately.”
The prince’s face became cold.
“Why?”
The guard hesitated.
Then answered:
“Because someone has accused Isabella’s mother of treason.”
Isabella’s heart sank.
The past she never knew about…
Was coming back to destroy her.
