He had known the woman for almost twenty years, and even if their first official meeting took place in the palace, their actual first meeting was not in the palace.
It was a sunny day, and King Gerold visited one of the markets in Grinia as part of his official schedule that day. At that moment, he saw the woman, and the woman saw him too. Back then, he did not know the identity of the woman, but the woman smiled at him, and he also smiled back politely just like how he treated his people.
It was only a short moment, but King Gerold somehow still remembered how that moment happened almost twenty years ago, and even when the two of them met again for the first time in the palace, he still remembered that woman who smiled beautifully at him.
He didn't know whether she still remembered him or not, but he had a good impression of her, and even after knowing her for so many years, his impression of her had not changed at all.
