Chapitre 172: "I won't"

Tyra and Ivan followed the king and queen obediently until they got to a safer place away from everyone. 

As soon as the king turned around, he threw a hard slap that landed on Ivan's face. Tyra gasped and jumped back, and her hand quickly flew to cover her mouth as she stared wide-eyed at the scene.

Both Ivan and the Queen also stared at the king in shock while Ivan touched the side of his face where the king had slapped. If he weren't so strong, the slap would have twisted and broken his neck. 

"It's my fault for letting you do as you please," the king said, sounding disappointed. 

"My—"

"SHUT UP!" The king angrily bellowed at the queen, who was trying to make him calm down, and she flinched and, at the same time, stepped back and put her hands up in fear. 

The king looked at the three of them in displeasure before he focused his gaze on his wife and pointed at Ivan.
