"Wait ... what are you saying? Our family is not worthy of her? What do you mean?" asked Queen Elena quickly. She couldn't accept that the royal family that had been ruling one of the wealthiest kingdoms in central Europe was deemed unworthy. It was impossible!
"I'm telling the truth," said Ren. "I can't say anything yet. But if the situation gets better and the family allows, I'll take her to see you."
Queen Elena was stunned. She didn't think Ren meant what he said. That girl came from a far more respectable family than the royal family of Moravia? So hard to believe.
"Who is she really? Why don't you tell us the truth?" asked Queen Elena in a slightly urgent tone. "Do I need to make a royal announcement to look for her?"
"No, don't do it, Grandma. I've promised her family to keep my wife's identity a secret for a while. When the time is right, I'll introduce her to you," Ren quickly stopped Queen Elena.
