MALDIVES
Autry was heart broken when he heard about the death of Ximena, Autry even heard that her husband, Eyal ran away and Theodore’s family were searching for him, he made a promise to himself to find Eyal wherever he was hiding and seek justice for Ximena
“Precious,” Autry whispered trying to wake Ruby up for breakfast, his face just inches away from her, rubbing her nose with his thumb
Ruby slowly opened her eyes, smiling cheaply at Autry, she gave him a hug and sat up on the bed
“You have to freshen up, it’s time for breakfast,” Autry carried her out of the bed and took her to the bathroom
“I will be waiting, don’t take too long,” Autry said and walked out of the bathroom closing the door behind
Few minutes later, Ruby finished bathing and quickly dressed up. Ruby and Autry walked hand-in-hand to the Royal dining, downstairs.
They met King Reagan, Queen Mabel and Josh already seated at the dining waiting for the couple to join them
“Good morning your Majesty”
“Good morning My Queen,” Autry and Ruby Chorused
King Reagan stood up, he hugged Autry and Ruby followed by Queen Mabel
Josh just smiled and waved at Ruby
“the food is getting cold, let’s dig in,” Josh muttered as he began to eat
Josh was already tired of waiting for his brother, he was hungry but he just have to obey his father, King Reagan
“I hope you’re enjoying your stay with us, if you need anything, don’t hesitate to notify me,” Queen Mabel said to Ruby as she flashed her a smile
“My queen, I love everything about this city, most especially the palace, staying here is one of the best experience I’ve ever had,” Ruby said, feeling grateful for meeting someone like Autry
“I trust my son, he’s just like me, Ruby can’t lack anything,” King Reagan praised Autry
“And I’m the bastard in this palace” Josh scoffed
“Don’t tell me you’re jealous of your brother,” Queen Mabel laughed gleefully at her son
“You wish Mum!” Josh muttered and rolled his eyes as he continue eating his food

“Good morning your highness”
“Good morning my queen,” Nyra greeted, smiling brightly as she bowed slightly to the king and Queen
Josh’s jaw dropped, his mouth gape, his eyes bulged in wonders as he kept staring at Nyra
Nyra greeted Autry and waved at Ruby, although Ruby’s face was strange to her but Nyra knew that anyone eating at the royal dining, must be someone very important to the family
“Josh won’t you at least give me a hug,” Nyra said standing behind Josh
Josh ignored her completely and focused on his meal. He wasn’t expecting to see Nyra, not now that he has found another girl
“Josh, you don’t ignore a lady, that’s not how I brought you up, you have to show respect to women, get up now and attend to her,” Queen Mabel gave Josh a stern look
Josh murmured under his breathe before he grumpily stood up and walked out of the dining room
