385 Do You Know Where Is Emmelyn?

"Your Highness! What are you doing to my niece?" Duke Preston's voice rang from the doorway. Mars was gripping Ellena's shoulders forcefully and shook her to demand answers when the old duke came.

"Uncle.. no-nothing happened..." Ellena stepped back and free herself from Mars' grip while the man was startled by Duke Preston's sudden appearance.

She quickly wiped her tears with her sleeves and looked at Mars pleadingly. "We... we were just talking about... the queen. That's why I'm crying...."

Mars remembered Ellena begged him not to tell her uncle that she had helped Emmelyn escape. He could see how much Ellena feared the duke and lied to him about what happened between her and Mars.

BAM!

The prince clenched his fists and slammed the table to everyone's surprise. He was always known as a man with a calm personality and almost never lashed out his anger in public. But today he looked so scary and emotional.
