Capítulo 252: Chapter 252: This Is Your Reward

Eddie spoke in a subdued voice. It had much softness and timbre in it. Then she began to plead with the Queen, "My Queen is still as beautiful as ever. I am a useless old woman; staying with you will not benefit you anymore. I know you care about me, but I can no longer serve you, my Queen. My body is too tired and worn out. I want to go to the mountains, and I ask you to let me go?"

Mae received many punishments throughout her life because of Sally. After Sally became the Queen, Mae became ill. At this time, Prince Raines became sick as well. Mae no longer wanted to stay in the palace as she thought that she owed Prince Raines her life. Mae wanted to leave and defend Prince Raines's tomb.

There was not much conflict in this scene, but it was very revealing. Malloy and Yolanda looked at each other, and both of them saw satisfaction in each other's eyes. Eddie was quiet for a while, and everyone watched her. It seemed like a long few minutes.
