Upon hearing the Crown Prince's words, the Prime Minister's anger intensified. Regardless of the reason, if the Crown Prince remained silent and directly shifted the blame to the Prime Minister's residence, then this matter could not be left unresolved.
"I never said I didn't admit it. I was clearly drugged just now. This happened while I was in your Prime Minister's residence. You have to give me an explanation!"
The Crown Prince took a deep breath to calm his anger and looked at the Prime Minister.
