章 185: Helen of Rosenthal

"That's right. This is Nadia, my older brother's daughter. Remember Helen?" The Empress indulged her and anyone could hear the excitement in her voice.

Upon hearing the name of my mother come out of her mouth, my attention was easily grabbed. 

Does the queen perhaps know my mother?

The Queen's eyes flickered and that small reaction from her immediately let me know that she does, in fact, recognize my mom.

"Helen…" her dark eyes then flew to my face, studying me for a while-- "Hmmm, she does resemble her…" she then muttered afterward.

My heart skipped a beat.

"Her Highness knows my mother?" I inquired out of curiosity.

The only people that I talked about my mother were the Empress and my father. So knowing that others had met her before kind of thrilled me. It makes me want to ask them things about her. That's how deprived I was.

The empress saw my anticipation and cupped her cheek in surprise.
