He gently raised his hand to support her shoulders, lovingly gazing at his daughter's face.
"COCO, tell Daddy... does he... treat you well?"
The Duchess nodded.
"Good!" The old king smiled, "I agree."
At this moment, he was not a king, just a father, a father who dearly loved his daughter.
For so many years, he had watched his daughter endure loneliness all by herself.
Even though it pained him, there was nothing he could do.
Now, seeing that his daughter finally had the chance to pursue happiness, as a father, the old king naturally had nothing but blessings to give.
He stretched out his arms, embracing the Duchess in his arms, and spoke in a hoarse voice.
"COCO, you must be happy!"
Embracing her father, the Duchess also spoke in a raspy voice.
"Thank you, Dad!"
The father and daughter embraced for a while before the Duchess managed to control her emotions and straightened up from his embrace.
"You're very busy, I won't disturb you any longer."
