Chapter 643 Realizing Love

"You…why do you always hover around me…what do you want exactly? Perhaps you also want something from me just like others, hm?" Arthur said with a dark expression as he clutched her neck while pressing her down on the bed.

Lina knew that something was going on with her prince, but she had never seen such a dark expression on his face, and that terrified her, especially the gloomy and dark look in his eyes.

"Y-Your Highness…It…hurts…please…" Lina held his arm, begging him to let go so that she could explain herself before he misunderstood. She had no idea what mistake she made for him to suddenly get angry at her.

The only thing she ever wanted from him was his heart. But she knew her place and that the one she loved had a status that she could not dream of matching.

Still, she never complained, nor did she ever show a sign of unhappiness before him. She was ready to serve him as his maid for the rest of her life, even if she had to remain unmarried and watch him from afar.

The terror she felt at first slowly faded away and was replaced with sadness and worry, wondering why her gentle and kind prince was acting like this. Was it because his mother passed away suddenly? She had no idea he was hurting this much inside.

But at the same time, she had no idea her presence irritated him. She was only trying to help and take care of him.

She softly smiled as she let go of his arms, not bothering to resist anymore, and said in a strained voice, "YYour Highness…I..I am sorry…" She didn\'t know that she was a nuisance to him, and if killing her would make him feel better, then she decided to accept it for his sake.

Her face was beginning to turn pale and blue as her eyes shivered, her vision becoming blurry and darker.

She regretted that she didn\'t even convey her feelings to her prince, even though she knew she could never do that.

Arthur\'s eyes suddenly regained some light as he came back to his senses, only to have his eyes widen in shock after seeing what he was doing to his personal maid, Lina.

He had no idea why he was choking her and immediately fell back, letting go of her neck.

"Lina…I am so sorry. Please forgive me. I didn\'t mean to hurt you. I don\'t know what\'s wrong with me," Arthur said with heavy guilt and asked, "Are you alright? Take this pill if you are feeling any pain."

Arthur was disappointed and felt like slapping himself for trying to hurt someone who took good care of him all this time, especially after his mother died.

Lina was the only one who constantly stood by his side and took care of him without even sleeping.

Lina didn\'t have powerful cultivation, and thus it was not good for her to go without sleep like this. But he was too distracted with everything that had been going on that he didn\'t think of telling her to rest.

And after accepting Sven\'s offer to gain the power he needed, his mind and body just didn\'t seem to be the same anymore, especially after seeing how he almost killed Lina.

He would have hated himself to death if he really did something bad to her. She was the only one left who cared about him.

"Cough…cough…" Lina coughed as she tried to get up, feeling a bit confused and relieved. She really thought she was going to die at that moment. But as expected, it really seemed as if he wasn\'t in his right mind.

She didn\'t even bother to rub her neck as she bowed before him, "Please do not apologize, Your Highness. I apologize if my presence was making you uncomfortable all this time. I promise to be more careful from here on," She said in a brittle voice as tears began to fill her eyes.

"Lina…"

She continued without raising her head, "I am ready to accept any punishment for…"

"Lina…stop…"

"...offending Your Highness. But please don\'t make me go away. This is the only selfish request I have for you," Lina said as she felt a tightness in her chest.

"Lina! Stop that," Arthur firmly said as he grabbed her arms and pulled her towards him, making her accidentally fall over him, her arms nervously placed on his firm chest.

She completely froze as she stared at him like a nervous little bird, while Arthur froze up as well since he wasn\'t planning to make her fall over him. All he wanted was to make her stop apologizing for nothing.

The two were gazing into each other\'s eyes in a daze, feeling as if time was slowing down around them.

Arthur never realized that her dark brown eyes were so beautiful now that he was looking at him up close. They seemed to be so clear and pure, unlike the filthy world around him.

He always thought that Reva was the only one who was unblemished by the world around her. But he had no idea that his maid, Lina, who was always beside him, was the same as well. He was so distracted by Reva that he never realized how important Lina\'s presence was.

Only when he almost killed her accidentally did he realize the pain he was feeling in his heart.

And the way she was looking at him, it felt so warm and comforting. He felt as if her aura was like the pure rays of sunshine shining upon a world of darkness…his world.

Before he knew it, he slowly wrapped one of his arms around her and cupped her pretty face before leaning forward to steal her rosy lips.

"Mmh~" Lina was surprised as her heart stopped beating for a split second, not expecting her prince to suddenly kiss her.

But her expression relaxed as she slowly closed her eyes and reciprocated his kiss happily…immersing herself in his warmth…something which she had dreamed of for all these years.
