All Chapters of HEARTS ACROSS WORLDS: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Scarlet watched Lucien leave the room, and after resting for a while longer, she also left. She needed to return to the palace to meet her parents. Scarlet was certain about one thing, even though she wouldn't say she knew all the original host's desires, she knew the original host missed her parents dearly. Although Scarlet grew up without the love of her parents, always ignored and treated as if she didn't matter, she knew that most children in the world loved their parents. To fulfill the original host's wish, she wanted to see her parents and, at the same time, experience once again what familiar love felt like. Scarlet stopped a cab by the roadside, gave the man the address, and closed her eyes as she continued her thoughts. She missed the parents she had in the last world. No, she had been missing them for years, even in that world. The father died when Scarlet was only 40, and the mother died when she was 45. Though the presence of her brothers made her enjoy familial l

By the time Scarlet opened her eyes again, it was already late at night. She looked around with confusion in her eyes. Perhaps she had slept it off, and the memory no longer hurt as it used to. Even the headache had disappeared, but for some reason, her chest ached. The pain reminded her of her congenital disease in the real world, and the feeling was quite suffocating. Scarlet had never for once resented that pain back then. No, she even appreciated it because it reminded her she was alive. The pain was her escape, and it meant the world to her. However, humans can be selfish, and it is never easy to return to pain after feeling healthy for a long time. Scarlet had lived for more than fifty years in the last world, having enjoyed a very healthy life and raising a few children. How could she go back to loving pain?But she forced back all her feelings. Not once had she ever been given a choice, and this time wasn't different either. If the pain returned, she would gladly accept

Following her gaze, Ria looked toward the entrance and frowned when she saw a waiter being dragged in. She took a step backward, and her face paled. Shaking her head, her lips kept muttering. Scarlet laughed wickedly. Two men in black dragged the waiter forward, and they pushed him to the ground when they got to the stage. The acting woman also stepped aside, staring at the stage with confusion in her eyes. The waiter looked bruised, probably beaten on the way here. He pressed a hand on his chest and coughed roughly. "It wasn't my fault. It was Princess Ria!" He cried out. "She asked me to drug this gentleman and bring him to her room. It really wasn't my fault." He was crying pitifully. Silence fell in the hall. My brows raised slightly, and a knowing smile crossed my lips. Ria staggered forward. "Liar!" She screamed. She was starting to lose her cool. "How dare you frame me? I don't even know you. Who sent you? Who sent you to frame me?" The waiter knelt, trembling as h

Scarlet's heart skipped a beat. She glanced around in fear before her eyes settled on the alpha standing before her. Her wrist ached slightly. "What do you want?" She knew it was futile to deny it. The alpha wasn't asking a question, nor was he confirming anything. He already knew and was only stating it. Hearing her question, the alpha sneered. "What do you think I want?" Scarlet was confused. Not once in her life had she been put in this situation. Even in the real world, she had always minded her business and stayed inside. This situation. This embarrassment. They made her uncomfortable, and she hated the feeling. "Say what you want, and if you don't..." She glanced at her wrist being held by the man. "Then let go." It was slightly painful. The alpha also looked at the hand. His eyes flashed subtly, and without a word, he moved back, releasing the hand. He stared at his own hand with a look of surprise on his face. Scarlet waited for him to speak. His hand slowly fell to

Just when Scarlet thought the chaos of the day was over and ready to leave with her parents, the two alphas showed up before them, letting her know how naive she had been. Lucien greeted the old Alpha with a respectful air. Even though they were both alphas, Lucien was from the younger generation and still needed to respect the old alpha. However, Kaden just stared. He was known to be rude and unscrupulous anyway. The king also didn't care about him. Lucien grinned, seeming to have nothing to say. Kaden stepped forward. "Alpha Arthur," He called. His voice was deep and dark, filling someone with primal fear. "I'm here to demand the hand of your daughter in marriage." The air turned heavy. But Kaden didn't seem to sense it. "In exchange, my park will give yours the border territories and also supply you with a million bags of grain every two years. What do you think?" He wasn't demanding. He was making an order. The king's face darkened with anger. He held Scarlet, pulling him
