Eve didn't know what to feel upon hearing Alaric's revelation.
"You should have approached me, instead of just watching from afar. Though I'm the third princess, I am always isolated in the Lotus Pavilion together with my biological mother. I didn't have any friends."
"Even though she was my real mother, she acted as a servant in front of everyone while taking care of me. The royal family made sure to conceal my mother's existence, hiding King Solomon's scandal."
"I pretended to be Queen Amara's youngest daughter. She never once treated me as her daughter. They also bullied my mother and me." Eve willingly opened up to Alaric.
"I think it would be nice to have someone like you as my friend… at that time."
Alaric took a frustrated sigh. He felt so bad for Eve and her mother. They suffered a lot because of the maltreatment from the members of the royal family.
