The depth of desperation in the green colored eyes of the princess was deep. With the strength of her grip, her medium height perfectly manicured pink coloured nails dug into Chi Lian's arm. "Please," she repeated again.
"Look I am making some good suggestions here, you don't need to panic we can still talk about things. You must realize that what you are asking of me is absurd. I am a stranger, how can you entrust the safety of your child to a stranger?"
As a mother she could not imagine sending her child away with a stranger. What if that stranger harmed them? What if she was secretly a child trafficker?
"I looked into you." The princess said. "You are a mother too, married to a powerful man from a powerful family and you have a good relationship with the princess of your nation."
"So?" Chi Lian asked her. This was one of these elaborate and make it make sense moments.
