Are you in love with her? (Part 2)

Friend? Rhea was taken aback. How could he be friends with Draven?

Draven's smile was faint as he replied, using a tone Rhea had never heard him use with others before, "Life hasn't been easy for me, Zack, and I can tell it hasn't been for you either."

Prince Zachary chuckled softly, "You're right, I have a lot to discuss with you about that." He turned to Ethan, who was standing by his side, and said, "Ethan, please go ahead. I would like to speak to my friend privately. And once again, inform our father to postpone his meeting with Draven until tomorrow. I have matters to discuss with him."

Ethan nodded and said, "Alright, I will convey your message to father." With that, Ethan left the room and the other servants followed suit.

When Rhea didn't move to go with them and remained standing beside Draven, Prince Zachary's eyes turned murderous as he glared at her with unspoken hatred. "You should leave us alone as well." He said sternly.
