Chapter 256 - She Was His Home (1/2)
Chapter 256 - She Was His Ho wanted to look away and not respond to his wife's question, but how could he? Finally, he downed his wine and put the cup back on the table before he replied flatly
"It's our disobedient son," he said
Queen Elara was shocked, soher lips
So, her suspicion was confir goodbye when he was about to leave the palace Apparently, the king locked him up in the tower?
"Why did you do it???" The queen was immediately in tears She couldn't believe her husband would be so heartless to lock up his flesh and blood like that
Wasn't Mars their only surviving child? Why did the king have to be so harsh to him?
The queen doted on Mars endlessly because she had so ive, but only one child to receive it
King Jared looked at his wife and her words struck so in his mind The queen didn't ask what did their son do to warrant such punish did it, not caring whether Mars was guilty of anything or not
He realized, Queen Elara's love for their son was a blind one Much like the love he saw from Mars for Emmelyn They seemed not to care about as the other person and what they were doing It was totally unconditional
"I did it because he insultedJared replied "I have to set hiht I think we spoiled him too much because he is our only child that he dared to talk back to me and insult ered and fell limply to the floor
Her expression was filled with horror and distraught, evenJared iet up, but she brushed his hand
She started sobbing, "How could you do this to your own child Hasn't he suffered enough??"
King Jared was stunned by his wife's action This was the first time she showed hostility toward him
What now? Not only his son, but his wife also treated hi so hard to not sound angry "I don't plan to lock hi time Just a few days toand I will release hi was confused Why did his wife mention how much their son had suffered? Wasn't she the one who suffered the most? Why did she act as if their son was the victim and suffered more than her?
"Please, release hied him "It's not too late to do it If you wait for several days, he will hate you That's not how you talk to your son"
If it was so Jared would definitely lash out when he heard them utter such words But it was his wife, the woreed with her, he wouldn't get angry at her
Queen Elara looked at her husband pleadingly Seeing that the king wouldn't budge, she finally got on her knees and begged him to release her son
"Your Majesty, please do it for h you don't want to release hio," she said stubbornly She looked at the king with teary eyes, and hands on her knees
She was his only weakness Yes, he never let people see this outside of their personal space, but here, he couldn't help but co could only let out a long sigh His wife never did this before His son also never talked back to hied since that homeless princess ca, to stand up for Emmely, and his wife, the queen, now defied hi was re to vouch for E Mother and son were truly alike
Now, King Jared realized his only son apparently took after his wife, not only in appearance but also in personality Were the crown prince's qualities suitable to be the king of this empire?
