"You should not stress yourself today," she replied.

"Well, I have to. I have to find the person who sent the assassin to attack my beautiful wife, we must find the person and punish them." Edric said firmly.

" I want to apologize, Edric."

Edric scanned her expression; she only calls him by his name whenever she's gloomy or wants to say something important.

"What is it?"

"I am sorry for the way I have made you feel all this while. You have been trying to balance both the kingdom's affairs and my depressed self. I know I have been overreacting all this while because of my baby so I want to start all over and apologize to you from my heart."

Edric mouth curved in a light smile.

"You don't have to do that; your depressed state recently is justifiable, so I am not angry at you. I am delighted to have you by my side again." He answered back warmly and embraced her.

"Thank you, Edric." She said as he patted her back gently.
