章 84: Don't hurt me more

"Grandmother!"

Emily had raced through the corridors in search of her grandmother, finally spotting her strolling along one of the passageways adjacent to the royal court. She quickly ran towards the older woman with worry written all over her face. 

"What is the matter, Emily? Did they find the thieves?" The Mother Queen questioned, her footsteps halting when her granddaughter came to stand before her. 

"I need your help, Grandmother, and it's urgent," Emily hastily implored before she went on to explain, "Queen Maya is punishing the servants who were previously bestowed with gold coins by our family members. She claims they stole them and labelled them as thieves when they were innocent. Please help them get out of this predicament. My maid, Anna, is also being falsely framed." 

The Mother Queen frowned and said, "If she's your maid, then you are the one who is in charge of punishing her. Queen Maya should know better."
