King Johannes became more amused when he saw the Prime Minister's acting. Giving him a mocking smile, the King opened his mouth and slowly asked the duke.
"Who said that Prince Jonathan is my only son?"
Everyone inside the party hall was dumbfounded when they heard the King's words. They looked at the King as if he was speaking a different language. They all know that King Johannes does not have any other child aside from his dead son from his first wife and Prince Jonathan who was celebrating his sixteenth birthday today.
"What are you saying, Your Majesty? The only child that you have is Prince Jonathan."
Instead of answering the duke, King Johannes called Marquis Cres Val to step in front of their guests. The guests saw Marquis Cres Val from behind and made a way for him. The marquis slowly walked towards the throne before he bowed down his upper body to greet the King.
