If it's just you and Ms. Bonnie going in, we won't be able to explain it to the Queen if something happens." "I know this terrain well; nothing will happen," Andreas retorted, finding the bodyguards more of a hindrance than help.

The lead bodyguard looked troubled. "But the Queen=" Andreas cut him off before he could finish. "The Queen, the Queen! Why do you keep mentioning her? Doesn't what I say count?" The lead bodyguard immediately lowered his head, his voice becoming much quieter. "Prince Andreas, that's not what I meant." "If not, then stay here and wait. Stop with the unnecessary talk." Andreas finished, then turned to Bonnie and said, "Let's go. Ignore them." "Alright," Bonnie replied, quickly following Andreas.
After walking for a while, Bonnie looked at Andreas and asked, "Is the Queen that the bodyguard mentioned your mother? But something about your tone seems off. Do you two not get along?" Andreas forced a bitter smile. "She's not my biological mother; she's my stepmother. And yes, we don't get along well. Half of the people here were sent by her. They say they're protecting me, but they're actually monitoring me..." At this point, he didn't want to continue. "It's a long story, and I can't explain it all now. Right now, we need to find the blue barberry before sunset. I'll tell you more about it another time." "You're right. Let's hurry and not waste any more time.

"How long has it been since you last exercised? You're exhausted from just walking." "It's not that I don't exercise! This path is just really long," Andreas replied sneaking a glance at her. "I'm also puzzled how you can walk such a long way without getting winded. Aren't you tired at all?" Bonnie shrugged indifferently. "This distance is nothing. I've walked much farther before." She often underwent high-intensity training and maintained her regimen to maintain her stamina and physical condition. This w nothing for her.
Andreas laughed helplessly. "Hearing you say that makeseven more curious about who you really are. I suspect your identity is far from simple."
"I'm just me, Bonnie. Who else could I be?" Bonnie smile. The onded with a vague is on novelenglish.net!
Andreas laughed brightly, his words dripping with sweetness. "Rightm you're Bonnie the one and only Bonnie." Looking ahead, he spotted the blue barberry and nearly cried joyfully.
