Kapitel 337: "That's The Path I Chose"

Prussia, July 29th 1803

6:11 PM

Konrad finished telling all the story of the Santen house. How his three brothers, who used to be the only official heirs to the throne of the Santen house, ended their lives, and how their father ran away in order to save himself, and then, he had to make Konrad his official heir.

Not only that, but Konrad also told Nathalie that her mother had died during her childbirth, however, he tried to soften it as much as possible, so she wouldn't feel as bad for it. After all, that wasn't her fault at all.

When Konrad finally finished everything he had to say, he leaned back on the armchair, while watching Nathalie's reaction.

Meanwhile, Lukas also looked over at Nathalie. She was staring down at her lap while clenching her dress.

Even though Konrad tried to explain as much as possible that it wasn't Nathalie's fault, and that she could understand it too, somehow, her feelings didn't behave the same way.
