?<strong>Chapter 724:</strong>


    However, an unsettling feeling of doubt prompted her to seek a professional’s verification of its authenticity as soon as she returned home.


    “This seal is a forgery,” the expert dered bluntly.


    In an instant, rissa’s face shifted, her shock evident. It became clear that Andrew had been right all along—Ynda was certainly trying to deceive her.


    The presence of the counterfeit seal meant that if her family proceeded with construction on thend, Ynda could easily take them to court at any time.


    What a ruthless move!


    Despite the fa?ade of sisterhood, Ynda’s actions revealed that she did not truly see rissa as family in any meaningful way.


    A wave of anger surged within her once again.


    Noticing the change in rissa’s expression, Patty leaned in closer and asked, “Mom, what’s wrong? You look really upset.”


    “Patty, it’s time we stop supporting Ynda and her family,” rissa said, her voice tight with frustration.


    Patty looked confused. “What’s going on, Mom? Is this about me taking the me for Savannah? I am angry, but I understand that at the time, Aunt Ynda had no other choice.”


    Even with her lingering resentment, Patty understood that if her cousin’s father ascended to the throne, their family’s status would undoubtedly rise.


    Patty was capable of grasping the significance of such matters.


    rissa locked eyes with her daughter, jaw clenched. “Ynda has been plotting against me. Even if her husband bes king, I seriously doubt they’ll do anything to help our family.” She went on to exin the situation with thend and the forged seal.


    Patty was left in stunned silence, her hopes shattered.


    “Aunt Ynda has really crossed the line. We’re supposed to be family, after all!” Anger sparked in Patty’s eyes, mirroring her mother’s outrage.


    “This is exactly why we cannot depend on Ynda’s husband. Knowing their many secrets puts us at risk, making us potential threats to them. Right now, if the current king retains leadership, it will be better for us because our family’s standing will remain unchanged,” rissa stated. “The current king truly is a just and fair man.”


    Patty nodded in agreement, seeing no reason to oppose her mother’s perspective.


    “If Princess Dottie were healthy, that would be even better. She could guide our country toward significant progress, offering us arger tform,” Patty remarked.


    “Absolutely. I’ll meet with the queenter. We’ll lend our support in the uing election. However, we must also maintain a positive public rtionship with Ynda’s family, as we can’t predict who will ultimately take the throne,” rissa advised wisely.


    Patty nodded decisively, showing her understanding.


    In her hotel room, Madisyn listened intently as Andrew outlined his n. She couldn’t hide her admiration for him, though she had some questions. “When did you get your memory back? And when did you start gathering intelligence?” she asked, her eyes locked firmly on Andrew.


    Andrew returned her gaze, his eyes clouded with a weighty guilt that seemed to hang in the air, making it feel thick and suffocating.
