With tensions on the rise, the Aldovian royal family suspects him and the Penglian king and queen's assistant; who is also Simon's college friend, Lynn of stealing the treaty to return the two kingdoms; into a state of war. But Amber solves the case while in labour and it is revealed that; the treaty is stolen; by a trusted member of the Aldovian royal family's staff as an inherited revenge. Now cleared of suspicions, Simon proposes to Amber's best friend, Melissa. She joyfully accepts and Richard promotes him to him duke; following his engagement to Melissa.
