Chapter 230 - The Interrogation (2/2)

Mars turned around and see Killian had opened his eyes They stared at each other and see about

"That's right Does that make any difference if she was my wife?" Mars asked back

Killian clenched his jaw "No, it doesn't I just thought I misheard Weren't you supposed to et you your freedom, but apparently, you married another woman I can understand why she is so upset"

Mars walked to hiain "It seems like you and Ellena are close Do you happen to harbor any ros for her?"

Killian smiled when he heard his words "Why? Do you want to toss her to anotheryour word to marry her?"

Mars wanted to smack Killian's mouth, but he held back

First, he orried that this man was really Emmelyn's brother He had prooing somewhere noith Kiliian started to talk about Ellena

Maybe he could give the inforive The location of the witch

So, Mars thought he better talked to Killian calet some information out of him

"No, I care about Ellena She is like a sister to me So, I am concerned if any man is interested in her," Mars replied "Maybe you don't know this, but Ellena and I were good friends before she went to find the witch We grew up together with Edgar and Gewen, the two men froot Killian's attention The et information from Mars

The prince continued "I did ask Ellena to be ure you already know about the curse since you ith Ellena to meet the witch Back then, I had no choice I couldn't touch any woht she would understand ree, but without e, she suddenly took matters into her own hands and went to look for the witch," Mars added "The rest, I think you knohat happened"

Killian didn't say anything, but from the look in his eyes, Mars knew Killian listened to his every word He slowly had the suspicion that Ellena ht not tell the truth to Killian about the real nature of her relationshi+p with Mars

Perhaps, Ellena told Kilian that she and Mars were in love and proet married, and thus explained her detered her to lift the curse

So, he repeated his words to Killian, in a hope that the man would understand the situation better if Ellena did lie to him

"I have never been in love with any woman until I met Princess Emmelyn Rosehill from Wintermere," Mars told Killian "She is the only one for me and we are already s for Ellena and I definitely never asked her to sacrifice so rateful for what she had done, but I don't love her as a woman"

Killian took a deep breath when he heard Mars' explanation that he loved Emmelyn and they were already ed to convince Mars that Killian ht not be her brother, surely he knew her frouay was close from Wintermere and Killian already said that his family helped the Bellevars settle down in Wintermere So, he must know the princes and princess of Wintermere too

If Killian was deceived by Ellena into thinking that she was the real victim, surely he could have the common sense to know that Mars's love for Emmelyn was sincere

So, that would be the approach that Mars decided to take

"You are right The only reason you are still breathing now and not hurt is because of E brother," he said to Killian "Emmelyn has lost her entire family in the war and I don't want to see her lose another faue that Emmelyn was not his sister, Mars quickly added, "Even if you are not her brother, if she wants you alive, I will "

He cleared his throat and stated everything he needed Killian to know

"Now, ed the Bellevars and we have paid the price There were four deaths in ave birth to were either stillborn or died in infancy I also was cursed for 27 years I believe that should settle the score with Lady Marielle's death," he spoke calmly "At this ize on behalf of my parents"

"If what Ellena said earlier today was true, the Bellevars also wanted to end the grudge between our two families So, I believe, it is finally time to meet and make amends, don't you think?" Mars asked his prisoner with a very serious tone
