"How did the three of you survive the Aston?"
Mila asked because it was the same question she wanted to ask the original Mila.
In her opinion, the Aston family is the strangest family among the four ruling families. It is a Duchy house that focuses on the arts, entertainment, and beauty. It may sound good and pure, but it is not.
Their way of protecting the house and its status is more extreme than the three other royal houses. Even though their primary focus is not military, magic, or commerce, they have equally contributed to the kingdom's wealth and power.
To achieve this, from the royal family down to the lower servants, everyone felt like they were crossing on a thin rope.
Milagros Aston, who did not follow the family tradition and built her own name, has had it not be easy. The same with Robert Aston, who followed behind Mila. They both give up on surviving at the Aston Duchy and find peace at Esclamado.
