#Chapter24
ISABELLE’S POV
/"Freedom. I want freedom/". I finally gathered the courage and said those words. Just as those words left my mouth the king stopped eating. His hand stopped midway. I think I said something wrong but now it is too late to think about it. Now I can only regret it.
An eerie silence surrounds us. From the king’s expression and his sudden halt of movement, it is evident that he did not like what I said. I don’t see anything bad in what I asked. I asked for a simple thing and that is freedom. It is everyone’s right but is only enjoyed by the one who has power. This is the cruel reality of this world.
