Chapter 309: This Is Not Like You

Athena just reached the royal palace of Jerivia. However, she instantly witnessed an unexpected thing.

When she entered her chamber, her husband was there.

Why was he here? Wasn't he supposed to be in Helsia?

The Queen initially thought that her husband won't know that she didn't return to Jerivia right away but... seeing him in flesh at their own chamber, she realized how wrong she was. As such, she ended up standing still.

Zaro Aventine was standing near the windows, quietly staring at the outdoors as if he was thinking of something. Maybe he finally realized the presence of someone in the chamber, he quickly turned to the door and saw his wife.

His eyes grew wide as he called out, "Athena!"

The Jerivian King hurried to his wife who suddenly showed up after days of disappearance. In no time, he stood before her and observed her. "Where have you been? Do you know how worried I was? You weren't here and I don't even know your whereabouts."
