Outside the chamber door, princess Ema''s body was begging to tremble. She had been pampered all her life so she naturally became tried after a few minutes.
She was cursing princess Ellen in her heart. She had indeed calculated the time before going there to kneel. No matter what it should have been just a few minutes before the king come out but thanks to Ellen it was going close to an hour.
She knew that princess Ellen was deliberately making her knee for so long but if she dares to say it out no one will believe her. After all, the guards by the door did not know that a maid had seen princess Ema kneeling down, so they just felt that it was a coincidence.
Princess Ellen must have shown up to say something to her father. Since princess Ema insisted on showing her sincerity no one could blame Princess Ellen for fulfilling this wish.
Princess Ema felt herself becoming dizzy, she wanted to get up but she stopped herself. Her father will be more worried and listen to her if fainted.
This was not a bad idea so she continue to kneel. Ann was standing at the corner looking at Ema. Maybe because she has been a spirt for so long she could read the meaning of the princess''s body language.
She wondered why such a young sweet girl will have such a personality. How could she be so manipulative but then again a fruit does not fall far from its tree.
Queen Agatha bit her lips. She wondered why she did not notice that lady Regina was such a person and had only been pretending. "I am so stupid," she told herself.
She could not even get angry with King George for neglecting their daughter. It was her fault. She was the one who asked the king to marry the lady, Regina. It was her dying wish so the king did nothing but fulfill it.
She was the one who handed princess Ellen to the care of Lady Regina, so it was her fault that princess Ellen had a hard childhood
She also felt that it was her fault that Richard become the unknown prince. In the year that she was pregnant with Richard, her mother-in-law had been very secretive about it. Back then her mother-in-law was sure that she was going to give birth to a boy so she asked her to keep the pregnancy hidden for a few months.
The race to the throne was fierce and the king''s health was not so good. Her mother-in-law at that time was scared that the child and her would-be armed, so she contacted a good midwife outside the Palace. She was scared that the other prince will pay or threaten the midwife to hurt her grandson.
She remembered that once lady Regina had asked about the midwife that was taken care of her when she was in her last terminal. Although she remembered that her mother-in-law wanted to keep it a secret but she trusted her friend that was like a Sisto her and told her the truth.
Since the midwife was someone her mother in law has chosen by herself they did not doubt her sincerity when she told them the child was dead.
Fortunately, the woman had a good heart and could not hurt a baby.
The door to the king''s chamber finally pulled open, princess Ellen stepped out first, followed by the king.
When he saw princess Ema state while kneeling he was moved.
"Stand up, what are you doing?" He asked her.
"no father, I was wrong and I have come to apologize," she said in a low voice that was shaking.
King George could see that her body was shaken so he asked the guards to help her up. Princess Ema pretends to resist and insists on kneeling.
"Get up if you want me to listen to you," King George said. When princess Ema heard him, she allowed the guards to help her up. Her aim has already been achieved.
There was no point for her to continue kneeling.
"Father, I have been thinking of your words since yesterday. It was wrong for mother to have treated sister the way she did back then. I did not know why mother suddenly changed the way she treated her. But I was scared that you will get angry with Mother, so I kept quit3, * princess Ema paused.
When King George heard her words he did not know what to make of it. This daughter of his was pushing her mother to the edge of the sword to save herself. Humans are indeed selfish.
When princess Ema saw that he did not say anything she continue speaking. "I do not want to make excuses for myself so I have come to apologize. I should never have allowed mother lie to father," she said righteously.
King George looked at her. "it is your sister you have offered, should you not apologize to her? king George asked.
When princess Ema heard this she tighten her fist and her nails dug slightly into her Pam. When she felt the pain, she compose herself and bow her head to princess Ellen.
"I apologize," she said. Her gesture looked sincere but princess Ellen knew better. "All that is in the past. A daughter will always think their mother is right," princess Ellen even went along with what Ema has been saying.
Hearing princess Ellen say something like this irritated her but she nodded her head and swallow her complaint. She was the one who pushed her mother to the mud, if she started to argue because of what Ellen said she would be seen as stupid. Princess Ellen would have to return to Avalo soon. So she did not want to cause any trouble.
She believes that once princess Ellen was gone, she could become the king''s favorite again, that way she will be able to plead on her mother''s behalf. The king has always doted on her so she believes that he would listen at that time.
Since Everything was settled, king George led the way to the dining hall. They were akre3a few minutes late for breakfast.
Princess Ellen followed behind and hoped that prince Sébastien will show up for breakfast after, he was gone all night long. Unfortunately, when they got to the dining hall only Richard was present.
This made princess Ellen said, she lost interest in the food but she still sat down to eat a little.. She had not slept at all last night, so she was hungry even if she did not feel like eating.
