章 126: The Second Words He Desperately Yearned For

Kayden stared at her for about two minutes without uttering a word. Joanna's smile faded away when she realized how strangely he stared at her.

"Did I say something wrong?" Joanna scratched her head. "Or do you perhaps think that my shoulders aren't solid enough," Joanna said jokingly, expecting to see him laugh like he usually did but he didn't.

His gaze remained fixated on her face.

Merely knowing that there was at least one person in the world willing to offer him a shoulder to lean on made Kayden feel warmth in his heart.

A kind of warmth he has never felt before rose up in his heart the moment he heard her words.

Everyone thinks he has it easy just because he is the King. They assumed he is leading a worried free life not knowing that there was nothing worried free about the life of a King.

If only they knew that being a King doesn't mean just sitting in the Palace eating and enjoying the life of affluence.
