“Come visit us again, Nicole,” Queen Evane said as she hugged the young lady in her arms. “Also, don’t worry too much about your mother. I’m making sure that she receives the best care possible.”
“Thank you, Your Majesty,” Nicole replied. “I’m truly grateful for your continuous support.”
“‘Tis but a trivial thing, My Dear.” Queen Evane held Nicole’s hand on her own. “Just don’t do anything reckless while you are in the academy. Make sure to study properly and stay out of trouble, okay?”
“I’ll try, Your Majesty.” Nicole nodded.
The two ladies then shifted their attention to Princess Eva, who was hugging Ethan.
“Visit us again when you’re free,” Princess Eva said. “Also, if you cheat on your lovers, I’m going to punish you personally.”
The princess then took a step back, pulling away from the hug, and winked at Ethan playfully, making the young man smile.
