章 73: Who says you can't help me?

King Liam extended his hand towards Queen Selena, "Shall we?" he asked, his voice deep and alluring.

Selena's eyes sparkled with delight, and she gently placed her hand in his, their fingers intertwining. "Yes... Your Majesty."

As they made their way through the bustling crowd the people parted giving them way. The Duchess of Eplon suddenly appeared beside them, her expression filled with concern. She had left to prepare for this very event but when she got back she heard what Lady Agnes had done. This was her fault. She knew that that child loved her son for so long but her son didn't like her. Just for that, she should have told her not to come but she didn't anticipate that Agnes who was normally well behaved would act so childish. From her reaction, it seemed that she had no idea that her son who was meant to be in the mountains reflecting on himself had stirred trouble for them again.
