You Are Under Arrest

''A warrant for the arrest of the lady in this picture.'' The police showed the servant at the gate a picture of Margaret.

''She's a wanted criminal.'' The police added.

The servant at the gate was shocked to see the picture of Margaret Usynol on the placard that the police held.

''I beg your pardon?'' The servant said.

''We would like to go in and have a word with the miss. She needs to come to the station with us,'' the police were determined.

The servant stared at the police with anger.

''Don't you know where you are?''

The servant studied the faces of everyone that was at the gate. There were three police men and one man in civilian uniform, and his face looked like he couldn't wait to enter the palace.

''Yes, we know where we are, but we have to apprehend the miss. She fled from arrest and came here claiming to be an Usynol. I don't think she is, and I think you people did not do your homework before jumping into celebration. The person that the Princes got married to is an imposter. A criminal. She is a wanted criminal.'' The police were about to use force if the servant did not let them in.

Seeing that his hands were tied, the servant at the gate had to ask for a moment to inform the Princes about the unwanted guests that stood outside.

''Give me a moment.'' The servant started to walk in while the police and Margaret's foster father waited outside impatiently.

''Make it quick or else we would barge in.''

It seemed like a joke to the servant. Barging into the palace of the Vandersar princes? Who would dare?

Well, he planned to get to the bottom of it.

The butler, Roger, answered the door.

''Some police men are outside, claiming that the new Mrs. is a wanted criminal.'' Roger's eyes widened when he heard what he considered a blunder.

''A criminal? You mean the Usynol lady?'' Roger was shocked.

''They even claimed that she is an imposter, and not an Usynol.'' The servant couldn't wait for the Princes to hear such a news.

''Oh?'' Roger was taken aback.

''Wait, let me inform Prince Harry about this.'' Roger entered the palace and soon returned with Prince Harry.

Prince Harry's expression was all shades of dramatic when he entered the conversation.

''Tell them to come inside.'' Prince Harry wasted no time, he just wanted to set eyes on the police men that would dare to say such a thing about Margaret.

Before long, the police men, accompanied by one other man were at the front door of the palace.

''My Prince.'' The lead police man wasted no time and flashed Margaret's picture in front of Prince Harry.

''You might have an imposter as your wife sir. This is the real identity of the person claiming to be an Usynol. She is a wanted criminal and managed to flee arrest at the nick of time. I wonder how she made it here.'' Even though the police were supposedly doing their job, they remained humble in front of Prince Harry.

Prince Harry stared at the picture that the police displayed in front of him without saying anything.

''Who are you?'' Prince Harry eventually asked the only regular man in the midst of the police men.

Margaret's foster father adjusted uncomfortably.

Should he tell them that he is Margaret's foster father, or should he just claim to be the owner of what was stolen?

''I'm... I'm a part of the case, My Prince. I am partly involved.'' Margaret's foster father didn't know exactly how to introduce himself.

''Are you aware that the person in this photograph is now a Vandersar queen?'' Prince Harry turned around and signaled at Roger to inform Margaret about what was happening.

''She is an imposter, My Prince. The girl in your custody at the moment is no Usynol whatsoever. She is a thief.'' The police started to argue again.

Of course, Prince Harry knew that what the policemen were saying about Margaret being an imposter was false because she understood the cryptic writing that McGuire had given her when he went to fetch her from wherever she was, but what he wanted to find out was if she actually stole the valuables in question.

Prince Harry chuckled at the thought of it. If Margaret had stolen those items indeed, then she must have been living a difficult life in the past before she showed up at the palace wit McGuire.

No wonder she was so pale when she first arrived. Prince Harry ahd started to feel pity for Margaret even before he came to the conclusion that she had stolen.

"Margaret, so this is where you ran away to. You have deceived everyone that you are an Usylon." Margaret's foster father spotted her from a distance and started to yell at the top of his voice.

Margaret kept a straight face and stared at her foster father.

"Margaret, do you know this man?" Prince Harry asked when Margaret had reached them at the door.

"Hello, madam. You are under arrest." The police displayed the placard that carried Margaret's face and proclaimed her wanted.

"Yes, I know the man. He's my foster father." Margaret and her foster father were currently having a stare down.
