Chương 195: Chapter 195

"I need to have a word with your father and I will find out what is occurring in the palace. Once it is safe, I will take you from here. We can all consider it a wonderful break from the manor. Anna will be excited to be near the palace though it might not be pretty now," Madeline said as she stood up. "Do you want to join me?"

Rose closed the book she had long ignored. She stood up to join her mother in hearing about the palace. Knowing whether Zayne was safe was more important than thinking about this town gossiping.

Madeline and Rose walked together to where Victor spoke with his guards.

"Victor," Madeline called to her husband. "It has gotten out."

"It has reached me. I am tracking down the person who shared it. I did not tell the town guards about it. It was only my family to know and if it was one of them or a servant, I will get to the bottom of it," Victor promised.
