Capítulo 476: Chekov

Selma Payne's POV:

I remained sitting on the sofa for a long time after she left.

"Your Highness." Kara came over and covered me with a blanket. "Miss Emma will be fine."

"I know." I nodded blankly. "She's innocent. Father knows that too."

"So, you don't have to worry about anything."

"I'm not worried about Emma's safety. I just feel a little empty..."

I'd always known that Emma's goal wasn't in politics. She loved literature and the arts. She chose to enter the vortex of power because she knew this was her only chance to be independent of her family. Another reason was because of her strong sense of responsibility.

Sometimes, we would chat. She would say, "My childhood is over. It's time to take responsibility." Therefore, she gave up her childhood dreams and ideals and worked hard to learn all the abilities needed in the officialdom. Good and bad, she had no choice but to accept them all.
