章節 355: They Won't Take Turns, Right?

Selma Payne's POV:

"You didn't do anything wrong. You're just a poor, innocent girl dragged into the center of the whirlpool. If I really want to settle the score with someone, it will be the Evaria Family who colluded with foreign enemies or your grandfather, the Earl, who turned a blind eye to everything and chose to acquiesce, but it will not be you because you said that I'm a kind and good king, right? A kind and good monarch would never vent her anger on her friends and subjects.

"Now, wipe your tears and calm down. You know that wild beasts are waiting outside to bite you when you're not focused. You're not willing to give up. You want freedom. I've seen it all. I swear I will help you break free from the family's restraints and become a truly free and independent person."

Emma looked at me in a daze. "But this is not your responsibility. I should be the judge myself."
