Plaque….

A hard slap just landed right on Kim Yoora's left cheek. The woman even fell to the palace floor with drops of blood dripping from the corners of her lips.

With a crooked smile, Kim Yoora rose from the fall. She is no longer a weak woman, if she is able to fight Kim Ye Jun, it means she is also able to fight Kim Won Shik.

"What do you gain from slapping me? Satisfaction? Of course you do." Kim Yoora cynically looked at Kim Won Shik sharply. "No matter how much you slap me, I will not change my decision. If I stay married." said Kim Yoora.

"Which man would want to marry you? While one world knows, if you have a bad destiny. Even before marriage, they also thought a thousand times to propose to you. Your background wins in your favor, but in fact your destiny doesn't support you at all." said Kim Won Shik with his spicy words.

"Then what's the matter with you? Doesn't that have anything to do with you? Didn't you also disown me as your daughter? This shouldn't be your problem." said Kim Yoora.

"This is not a problem for me. But you live in my palace."

"So you roughly want me to leave this palace?"

Kim Yoora smiled a little. If she had to leave this palace, Kim Yoora was ready. If she has to be a commoner like the others, who are obedient under Kim Won Shik's feet. His service during his life in this palace had also been long enough, and according to Kim Yoora it was more than enough. But unfortunately Kwan Ji Woo and Kyung Soon immediately asked Kim Won Shik to think twice. If the eldest Princess of Daegu Palace came out of the palace, what happened besides Kim Won Shik's name would look very bad in the eyes of the people. They will assume that Kim Won Shik is a picky father. Apart from alienating Kim Hyo Ra, Kim Won Shik also acted unfairly with his two daughters. If that happens, then people will criticize Kim Won Shik a lot.

"If it weren't for my mother and also your mother. I'm already going to get you out of this palace." growled Kim Won Shik clenched his fists.

"I will wait for that day. The day you will throw me out of this palace. Trust me, I'd rather live as a commoner, not as the eldest daughter or maybe as your daughter."

The old man just sighed heavily. Her eldest daughter is stubborn, in contrast to Kim Sun Hee who is very obedient and doesn't act much. He knows what Kim Hyo Ra wants and Kim Won Shik will never be able to grant it. Seeing his daughter leave, Kim Won Shik rubbed his face roughly. She really was as stubborn as she was.

"That kid always throws tantrums," grumbled Kim Won Shik. "Dae Hyun, please find out which man you want to marry. Which man would want to have a bad life with that woman." Kim Won Shik ordered, and made Dae Hyun nod.

Kwan Ji Woo who didn't accept got up from his position and looked at Kim Won Shik sharply. It's enough!! It's enough that the man continues to insult or even say harshly to Kim Hyo Ra, doesn't he think how Kim Hyo Ra feels when Kim Won Shik utters harsh words? All this time Kwan Ji Woo knew that his daughter chose to remain silent, because she didn't want to add to the problem. And maybe, it's time for her daughter to rebel. Fate that somehow made Kwan Ji Woo seem hesitant to believe it.

"Ji Woo, you know what Sung Min said that time, right? Hyo Ra's destiny--"

"Emperor, I know what Sung Min said. But can we give a little happiness to our children? I've seen enough of her suffering, and you always make Sun Hee proud of this. I also know that my daughter has a bad fate. But I'm also sure, if she also wants a normal life." cut off Kwan Ji Woo angrily.

The thing that always makes Kim Won Shik weak is Kwan Ji Woo. Just seeing the woman cry made Kim Won Shik's heart touched. He even came down from the throne and immediately hugged the woman. He knew how the woman who had been in his heart felt all this time. But the man was also unable to do anything but surrender. There is no other way than this, alienating Kim Hyo Ra and not knowing any man to be her life partner.

"This time I want to rebel. I don't want to see my daughter suffer anymore. I want to see Kim Hyo Ra happy with her choice or maybe mine. It's up to you whether you agree or not, I really don't care."

Kwan Ji Woo left the main palace along with his lady-in-waiting, as well as Kyung Soon who immediately left the palace with his lady-in-waiting as well. Leaving Kim Won Shik who shook his head in frustration.

"You don't know what I mean, and choose your anger first. One day you will know why I did this." muttered Kim Won Shik pinching his temples.

-PrincessKimHyoRa- 

Hearing that Min Young Jae was sick, Kim Yoora immediately went to the man's house. Moreover, the one who said and came to the pavilion was Min Jun Ryun, the Crown Prince of the Hwang Kingdom. How can you not be surprised if it's the Crown Prince, no longer Eunuch or maybe Min Young Jae's servant or soldier. Because that man came, Kim Yoora finally came along with Iseul. Riding a horse carriage belonging to the Hwang kingdom. and strangely, the Crown Prince even rode a horse, with the excuse that he really liked his horse. That's why he wants to ride a horse and take care of Princess Kim Hyo Ra.

"Is he really sick or not? How weird huh?" muttered Kim Yoora unsure.

Earlier, after leaving the main palace there were no problems. Neither Kwan Ji Woo nor Kyung Soon saw him. That's why when Iseul said, Min Young Jae was sick and Min Jun Ryun came to his pavilion. Without a second thought, Kim Yoora immediately followed Min Jun Ryun to Min Young Jae's house to see the man's condition.

Iseul tilted her head in confusion. She herself doesn't know whether Min Young Jae is sick or not. After all, the Crown Prince only said that Min Young Jae was sick. That's all, and Iseul also didn't ask anything else besides calling Kim Yoora.

Trying to believe it, Kim Yoora got off the horse carriage when she felt the carriage stop. She also accepted Min Jun Ryun's helping hand who helped Kim Yoora to get off the train. Then stopped right in front of Min Young Jae's house.

"Crown Prince, is he really sick?" asked Kim Yoora reassuringly.

"Yeah, he's sick. You don't believe me, princess?"

Not disbelieving, rather confused between yes or no. Besides, the weather is not cloudy and there is no rain. and yesterday it didn't rain either, so what did Min Young Jae get sick for?

"Princess Kim Hyo Ra, sick people don't have to be exposed to rain, right? Many factors can make a person sick. Moreover, Min Young Jae also worked very hard to take care of me and also the Hwang palace. Maybe that's why he's sick." Seo Jun explained.

Sounds very strange. Kim Yoora still remembers well when Min Young Jae and Kim Yoora were in the rain, and he didn't get sick right away either. and now just because of a trivial matter he is sick?

"Really strange." Kim Yoora muttered and made Seo Jun smile.

"Come in, Princess Kim Hyo Ra."
