章 144: Without you...I have nothing

Fredrick watched the couple leave before he started to cough violently again, "Cough! Cough!" He covered his mouth as his body shook with the coughing. Merona clicked her tongue and held out a handkerchief to him, "You should be resting in bed instead of having dinner with the couple, Your majesty."

Fredrick took the handkerchief she gave him and spoke in a more serious tone than before, "Why can't you just do as I say for once and follow my lead?" He questioned without explaining.

However, Merona knew exactly what he meant. He'd told her countless times to be nice to the bastard, because he wanted to groom Hamon to be a calm and caring crown Prince before he gets crowned king in the future, but why should she do that when she wanted her own son to be the next king? That monster doesn't deserve to be king! And she'd make sure of it.
