AS A MOTHER

[AH.]

Nikolai belatedly realized that he forgot to tell Mona that Juliet had a son enrolled at the Royal Moon Academy.

First of all, there had no reason to talk about Juliet Hwang's personal life.

Moreover…

[Juliet Hwang, despite being who she is, values her privacy. So her personal life is practically protected. It only changed when she filed for divorce.]

Most of all, Mona wasn't really that curious about someone else's life.

Even so, Nikolai should have still given his wife a heads-up.

[Now everyone is watching our interaction as if it's some amusement to them.]

Haaah.

[Everyone here is highly educated, but this just goes to show that even such individuals love to gossip.]
