My Daughter, My Pride

(Jane's PoV)

"That's umm..." I didn't mean to stutter, but lying to my father about anything related to my education was a bad choice to do. Nor that saying the truth was less troublesome as well.

"Lord Satya, how is it going?" The Queen appeared while asking hesitantly.

"It went well, My Queen." My father stood up and bowed down towards the elegant woman.

The atmosphere around her changed as her full of worry face now had a blooming smile on it. It was not a graceful smile like she showed towards unknown people. It was a smile pure of relief and happiness.

It was a mother's smile. She genuinely cared for him.

"But, it's thanks to my daughter that My Queen's son can be saved." My father continued. "Honestly, it was a hard fight, close to impossible. But, since you trust this case to me, I should do my best. Turned out I underestimated the situation. If my daughter wasn't here, I am sure he wouldn't make it."
