King George looked at his daughter. He had expected her to come to look for him since yesterday.


    "What is it?" king George calmly asked. When princess Ema saw that her father was willing to listen, she felt more confident.


    "Father," As she spoke she lowered her head and acted pity. "I am not sure what mother has done to anger you but please forgive her. The punishment is too much. No matter what she is still your wife and my mother. My heartache seeing that even maid''s dare to disrespect her now," princess Ema said. At the end of her statement tears ran down her cheeks.


    King George narrowed his eyes on her, he used to like Ema a lot but after hearing the conversation between the mother and daughter on the day of princess Ellen''s marriage, he knew that this daughter of his was not as innocent as he has always thought.


    Princess Ellen should have been his favorite child but he tried his best to love the other children and pay attention to them. He hoped that this will help them love each other but he was wrong.


    "what do you mean too much? Are you saying I am acting unreasonably?" king George asked. Princess Ema was taken aback by her father''s words but she shook her head without any hesitation.


    She did not want to annoy her father. "I know for you to have gone this extreme mother must have done something bad. I am just begging on her behalf that you reconsider because of her position as your wife. Can you seat back and watch the maid disrespect her?" princess Ema asked in a low voice.


    King George sneered when he heard her. " what position? Tell me, if she has acted like a decent member of the royal family, would I have done this? " He asked. If he could send his young daughter to the camp the injured. Then why can he not restrict her from coming to the palace and withdraw the royal servant?


    Hearing king George''s question princess Ema was stunned and did not know how to answer but prince William had something to say.


    "Father, from a young age you taught me that the royal family will always be on top if we do not fight among ourselves. You have always treated us equally but you do not seem to care about my feelings and that of Ema, since Ellen returned and you found your son. Are we now useless to you, " He asked. He picked his words in such a way that his father will be guilty.


    Although their mother''s punishment had nothing to do with them, he hoped to use these words to convince the king.


    As expected king George paused, he had indeed supported Richard and gave no room for Prince William. But then it was not his fault, if lady Regina had acted nicely to princess Ellen then he will not feel so guilty.


    Prince William would have to come up with a way to help him feel less Guilty towards Ellen and Richard before he plays the card of being mistreated.


    "Are you saying I treated you and your sister unfairly?" king George asked.


    Prince William was going to answer his father but Princess Ema beat him to it.


    "Yes father, you stripped mother off her title as the Queen because she slapped Ellen but when she did the same to me you did not seek justice. Now you treated mother like this for no reason. Or maybe because Ellen or your new wife complained about her," princess Ema said forgetting the warning of her brother earlier.


    He had told her not to bring Ellen or the new Queen into the conversation. He was convinced that they will  persuade him easier this way


    When Prince William heard her, he felt his headache. This sister of his only knew how to throw tantrums.  She has indeed been spoiled by. Parents. Prince William had expected his father to get angry but he remained calm.


    Princess Ellen looked and Ann, using her eyes to ask what was going on but she noticed that Ann was puzzled as well.. "complain about your mother? Do you have any proof?" king George asked.


    "I have no proof but why else will mother suddenly be humiliated for doing nothing. Someone must have cooked up some story and because you are so kind and trust that they will not lie to you, you took action without verifying," princess Ema said. The confidence in her time was clear to everyone. She did not even realize that this word could be used against her.


    In her heart, she was sure that her mother did nothing wrong. Moreover, if her mother has done something she would have told her. So she thought that by saying these words to the king, the king will reveal what Ellen or the maid said to him.


    King George''s face turned red, not from anger but he was embarrassed. Princess Ema''s words felt like a slap on the face. The mother and daughter had manipulated him like this in the time past. Princess Ellen has suffered like this. When he thought about his formal actions, he was regretful. He did not even know who to get ger to forgive him.


    "is that so am I so easy to fool?" king George asked. He did not get angry and spill the beans as she had expected. One must know that King George is a righteous man. He was not the type to treat anyone unfairly.


    Seeing that her words were not able to provide the expected result, she felt frustrated she did not even know how to answer the king''s question.


    King George slammed his hand on the table. A loud bang echoes all over the dining hall and outside. "Answer me," he demanded. Princess Ema was surprised by her father''s attitude to her.


    It was not the first time she saw him this angry. It was just that it was the first time that anger was directed at her.


    Princess Ema''s body shook with fear as tears unconsciously ran down her cheeks. If she said he was easy to fool, then she would have insulted the king but if she said no, it means she agrees to whatever is said about her mother to the king is true. When Seeing her like this king George got more irritated.


    It turns out that the mother and daughter took him for a fool. "Have you lost your tongue?" king George asked.


    "I... Father," princess Ema wanted to say something but her tears did not allow her.


    "Why are you crying? Did you not already say I was a man that only listened to one side of a story and act without verifying.. Could this be the reason you and your mother team up to lie against Ellen when I unexpectedly returned to the Palace?" king George asked.
