There was a prophet named Cassandra.

This sentence is correct.

She met Apollo and kissed him, but she spat on Apollo's face.

This sentence is correct.

Apollo cursed Cassandra that people will never listen to her.

Apollo cursed Cassandra that people would never listen to her.

"We change 'will' to 'would' to shift the verb tense from a present/future prediction ('will') to a past-in-the-future prediction ('would') in the reported speech or indirect speech, indicating that the curse was made in the past but still applies to the future."

Her brother Paris didn’t listen to her.

This sentence is correct.

The people of Troy even didn’t listen to her.

This sentence is correct.

After the people ignored Cassandra’s prophet the city was destroyed.

This sentence is correct.

She even fell in love with the King Agamemnon who didn’t listen and died.

She even fell in love with King Agamemnon who didn’t listen and died.

The removal of "the" before "King Agamemnon" indicates that the sentence is referring to King Agamemnon in a more general or unspecified way, rather than emphasizing a specific king among multiple possible kings.
