"My dear if there has been any misunderstanding between us, I apologize but I have always wanted the best for you, that is why I seem a little difficult at times,"  Regina said smoothly. She knew that if Ellen continued to talk the king might find out about her pretentious behavior.

"Haha? A King dares deny his wife; who would have thought that the great king of Avalo will act like a coward?" Emperor Vanish provoked.

Sebastian looked at him like he was looking at a fool. The few Generals on Sebastian's side felt like they had been slapped on the face after hearing what the emperor said. They also thought, like the emperor, that Sebastian was saying all this to save his wife's life and still not bow to the emperor.

"What? Did I say something wrong? Ahh! " the emperor turned to Marian. "Back then, when you were yet to lose your memory, you kept telling me to let you go, that he will come for you. Can you see that wealth and power is more important to him than you," Emperor Vanish said.

Marian did not dare to say a word; she was among the few who knew that the king was telling the truth, so she lowered her head to avoid the emperor's eyes.
