''We have evidence right here and you're talking about investigation Alex, what is that?  Don't tell me you're trying to protect that girl?'' The Queen asked in fury. 

''Seria… you… you… need to calm down. Emilia is our only daughter, and as parents it's our duty to protect our kids.'' The King said, stammering. 

''Don't you even tell me that. Emilia isn't our daughter and will never be. She is even lesser than a commoner. A helpless orphan, who was left to die amongst the rock until you came to save her.'' The Queen fired and walked out on the King. 

The King just let her be, his wife had always been hard-hearted and hot tempered. 

'' I will always protect Emilia as long as I live.'' The King said. 

What is the Queen up to? 

Can the King protect Emilia at all times to avoid being hurt?
