Chapter 234: [Summoning pen answered]234

Before the trial began, and also the same day Joaquin beat Curtis and Gertrude, Aries made a surprise visit to the chief justice's office. It was her first time meeting Modesto, and since she was the crown princess, he didn't dare reject her request. 

And if Modesto could change his decision back then, he would've done it. Because that visit still bothered him today.

"I hope my sudden visit doesn't inconvenience you, minister." Modesto raised his head at the woman sitting across from him.

"Not at all, your royal highness. I'm just a little surprised," said Modesto. "What do I owe this pleasure?"

Aries pressed her lips and smiled meekly. "In a rush, are we?"

"No, it's just…"

"It's alright." She chuckled, waving mildly. "The purpose of my visit is regarding my husband, the crown prince."

"Ye — yes?" His brows knitted in puzzlement.
