Bab 526: Jared Strongmoor's Regret

"Father," Mars greeted his father. Jared Strongmoor turned to see him with wet eyes.

"Is that true? Did your mother wake up?" Jared asked Mars urgently. "Or did people lie to me?"

He grabbed Mars' collar and pulled him ins frustration.

"Yes, that's true. Mother woke up earlier today," Mars explained. "Please let her rest. She has so much in her mind now. If you truly loved her, you wouldn't want to force your will on her."

His words touched Jared in all the right feels. The old king took a deep breath and let his son go.

"I truly love her. I do..." he muttered.

"Mother was heartbroken when she found out you have punished an innocent woman for her murder," Mars continued. "She has testified that Ellena was the one who stabbed her. She now wants me to punish Ellena Greystorm."

Jared Strongmoor's eyes bulged and he stepped back a little when he heard Mars' statement. His expression was filled with horror.
