Chương 548: Mother's Room

Philip remained unusually quiet after the departure of the king and queen, his mind seemingly entangled with weighty thoughts. Oriana, having concluded her discussion with Erich regarding Aunt Gwen's well-being, returned to her grandfather's side. "Grandpa, what's occupying your thoughts?"

"Grandpa, what are you thinking about?" she asked, looking at the quiet old man.

"I was wondering if our home still exists here in the city," he replied.

"It does, Grandpa," Oriana assured, "I have visited there once, and it's been well taken care of under the order of the King."

"Grandpa, would you like to visit that home?" Oriana asked.

"I want to," he replied, his voice trailing off, "I... want to take my last breath in my home."
