Chapter 217: A Choice without Her Son

''Your imperial highness?'' Damien called out questioningly. How was he different? Different from what?

''I thought you will be like others and always smile at me or you will forcefully try to be my friend.'' The crown prince revealed the answer to his thoughts.

''I hate it when they do that, but I can do nothing about it since I am the crown prince. I thought you will be like them after understanding my position, but I was wrong. You are still the same even after regaining your identity as the young heir of the south.'' The crown prince didn't even know why he was saying such things to young master elrod. Perhaps it was because there was someone who did not treat him like a crown prince. The way young master elrod was staring at him was not the same way the children of nobles always stared at him.

They looked at him as the crown prince.

He looked at him as a person.
