601 King Ophire's Plans

Heartless!' King Ophire shook his head after letting out a defeated chuckle.

This little girl was bolder than what he had expected as she had dared to put on a false smile before him.

Being King for so many years, he was able to differentiate when someone was truly happy to be in his presence and who was here just for the sake of achieving their purpose.

While he did not sense any greed coming from her, it was easy for him to male out that she did not wish to stay here any longer.

'Hmm… Certainly interesting.' He mulled over her and the information related to her.

The first time he had heard about this child was during the consideration of who would become Princess Felicia's second playmate.

He had asked the Royal Tutor for a suggestion and this child was his first pick.

However, later on, he was told that she had gravely injured herself, deeming her incapable of joining the Princess for fear of dragging the other girls down.
