Chapter 561: Loving Elder Brother

Before leaving the Obsidian Palace, Ruven sought out his mother once more and found her leaving instructions to the gardeners. As soon as he approached, the gardeners tactfully excused themselves, leaving the mother and son pair to have some private time.

"Are you leaving?" Lady Saira asked with a smile. She reached out to straighten the slight wrinkles on his uniform. "Did you have fun with your siblings and grandmother?"

"Hmm," the young prince responded with a nod. "Shall we head back to Vermillion Palace with Ayira, Mother?"

"You two can go ahead. I have always kept your chamber ready for use and our servants will take care of whatever else you'll need," Saira lovingly informed her son.
