NovelEnglishChapter 1593: When Princess Annie Was Three
| see... a sister?
Because this explanation made sense, Katherine relaxed her vigilance and smiled. "No wonder she looks quite innocent and
comfortable. Since that's the case, shall we go then? No need to wait for her."
"Sure."
And so the group resumed walking, even the usually alert Julie let down her doubts.
With Prince Louis' wariness, he definitely wouldn't get close to someone easily. Julie was a little worried the girl would get rejected
outright.
At that moment, in the nearby palace, the servants were setting pot after pot of flowers and plants in the yard.
Many were also carried indoors.
Rowan stood by the desk in the side hall. The drawer was open and he held an old photo in his hand, gazing sadly at the little girl

It was a family photo from twenty years ago.
In the photo, the scrawny young him held his cute and fair little sister Princess Annie, who was only three then. Her baby teeth
hadn't fully grown in yet. Her smile revealed two little dimples, very sweet.
The photo was taken in summer. The chubby sister wore a strap dress, revealing two distinct moles on her exposed right shoulder.
On her right hand was a red braided rope bracelet with an adjustable length.
The playful sister would take off any accessory put on her, perhaps her baby skin was too delicate and she just didn't like wearing
them.
Only this bracelet handwoven by Father did she really like. She wouldn't even let the nanny take it off when bathing.
Looking at his sister's smiling face, Rowan's longing surged again.
He took out another red braided rope bracelet from the drawer, with a "Ann" charm on it, his own.
Holding the photo in one hand and touching his bracelet with the other, Rowan's thoughts drifted away...
Sister, where exactly are you?
The year Annie was three, on the day she disappeared, Father and Mother had taken them out of the palace in commoner
disguises to a parent-child thpark for a day of fun.
It was a wonderfully ordinary day out for the family of four. No entourage, no restrictions.
They ate many commoner foods they had never tried in the palace.
Around dusk, passing an inflatable castle, Annie's eyes were deeply drawn to it.
Mother and Father decided to let him take Annie in to play.
The castle was very tall and soft, the most beloved cartoon figure for children.
He had looked after the three-year-old sister the entire time. Just as everyone was playing excitedly, suddenly the power went out.
The inflatable castle instantly started deflating, sending all the kids directly crashing down with panicked screams echoing in the
air.

He immediately realized something was wrong then, and reached out to grab Annie, but she rolled down the sagging cushion...
"Annie!! Annie!!" At that moment, he was scared witless.
Rushing down after her, Annie was already gone. Many children were injured, the crying, shouting, and parents’ panicked voices
were extremely chaotic!
"Annie! Annie!!"
He had desperately searched like mad, shouting himself hoarse, not even noticing his own wounded arm.
Father and Mother were also crazy with anxiety. Everyone was looking for their own children.
Screams and cries everywhere... Piercing the ears.
But after two hours, still no trace of Annie.
In those two hours, due to the inflatable castle accident, five very young children had gone missing.
Later investigations discovered it to be a premeditated human trafficking case. Father had deployed a lot of military forces to look
for the five children. Following the clues, only four were found. Annie completely disappeared.
From that year on, Father amended the Lu Layuoka laws to death penalty for human trafficking, carried out immediately on
sufficient evidence.
