Bab 256: She Was His Home

The king wanted to look away and not respond to his wife's question, but how could he? Finally, he downed his wine and put the cup back on the table before he replied flatly.

"It's our disobedient son," he said.

Queen Elara was shocked, so much that she stood up from her chair, pressing her lips.

So, her suspicion was confirmed. Her son would never be disrespectful to her by not saying goodbye when he was about to leave the palace. Apparently, the king locked him up in the tower?

"Why did you do it???" The queen was immediately in tears. She couldn't believe her husband would be so heartless to lock up his flesh and blood like that.

Wasn't Mars their only surviving child? Why did the king have to be so harsh to him?

The queen doted on Mars endlessly because she had so much love to give, but only one child to receive it.
