บท 318: Asking For Lily's Help

"Oh my god... Lily! I am so glad you came..." was all Emmelyn could whisper to Lily who came to see her. She felt so moved that Lily went the extra mile to make sure that they could meet by disguising herself as a maid.

"I am sorry, I can't come sooner. It was chaos outside. I think the king has gone mad..." said Lily with a hoarse voice. Emmelyn could now notice her distraught expression. 

This must be hard on Lily too because she and her family came to the capital to visit Emmelyn under the queen's invitation. And when they went to Athos' parents' home, suddenly the queen was murdered.

"I didn't kill queen mother," Emmelyn was sobbing almost without a sound. She didn't want the guards outside to hear what they were talking about. It was not common for a maid to have a conversation with noblemen.

So, if they heard Emmelyn AZ li taking with a maid, they might be suspicious that the maid was not really a maid.
