Chương 376: Chapter 373: Dinner at the palace III

"I'm sorry, father, for my negligence. This is my wife, Serena. Serena, please pardon my misgivings." Geoffrey said as he looked at her and gave her a small smile.

Serena suddenly felt that it was difficult for her to breathe. She felt suffocated, not for herself but for Geoffrey. Was this how his family treated him? Was this the environment he grew up in? She has always seen him as a proud and prideful character. Yet, when his father demeaned him, he did not even flinch and even asked for forgiveness immediately, which signals that this kind of event was a normal happening in his life.

She wanted to rebuke the king on his behalf and defend him, but she was not that gutsy. Like honestly, she was not stupid enough to be antagonistic to their sovereign during their first dinner. Anyhow, she could just wait for him to die so that Geoffrey can take over the throne.
