The Crown — The Beggar's Crown

Your mother's legacy belongs to House Ashford. Father never called it favoritism. A beggar would ruin Vivian's life. But you, give you a broken man and you'll find a way to build him up.

Your mother nearly died to secure that place beside the crown prince. I'll take it. You can clean up the beggar. He simply gave Vivian whatever she wanted and handed me whatever she rejected.

Last time, she chose Adrian. No one knew the perfect crowns was a violence. Three days into their marriage, he shattered Vivian's wrist. Five years later, she pushed him into treason, and they were exiled together.

Neil, I may forgive the delay. I didn't dismiss you. I was never choosing you. Let me be clear.

The man I choose is Cassian. Crown Prince! For a beggar. Then doesn't that mean she just handed the Crown Prince to Evelyn?

I spent 16 years forcing your name into Evelyn's contract for one reason, people! That's not to watch you rot in the gutter with this filthy beggar! Take it back now, or I'll disown you in front of this entire court! Father, please allow me to marry Cassian.

Last time, you were the queen. This time, it's my turn. She came back, too.
