Chương 141: Her Request

Martha, who was merely a servant, was hugged by the princess. Martha remembered the days when Seren was a baby and she had to take care of the little princess like her own daughter. As that baby grew up, Martha had to give up on her motherly side and started to distance herself, acting as a proper servant who knew the difference between their status.
