Therius loved and trusted his wife 100 percent. He didn't think she would ever betray him.
However, the fears of his grandmother and grandfather about Princess Arreya leaving his uncle Darius all alone to die young suddenly came to Therius' mind. He reached out to his forehead and rubbed it hard.
"Hah…"
What a ridiculous fear to suddenly have. Therius was overreacting, wasn't he? The king needed to stop himself and get ahold of his senses. Instead, he looked up at Emma's friends and at Miri still holding the spoon.
Therius grabbed it from her and began to taste the overly sweet and indulgent jam.
"It's too sweet. You should reduce the sugar in the jam if you don't want it to be too overbearing," Therius said while scrunching up his nose.
"O-oh, we're sorry." Stell blinked.
