523 Queen Elara's Advice

Queen Elara looked at her son with pity. She knew him so well since she gave birth to him and raised him to be a good man. She realized that everything he did must have been whatever he thought was best at the time.

It was such an unfortunate situation that he was a filial son to an awful father. At the same time, he was also the king of a country that saw him as the role model to uphold justice, when he couldn't yet find evidence to free the woman he loved from being accused of a crime she didn't commit.

Mars was torn between his obligations and duty and his love for Emmelyn. If he was an awful king and son, he would easily just choose Emmelyn regardless of the crime she may or may not do.

Queen Elara looked down at the beautiful chubby baby on her lap and her tears started streaming down again. She could imagine Emmelyn's pain being separated from her baby.
