Even though she was doing her job well, she was distracted, and he wondered what had happened to her. 'Samantha, what happened to you, darling? Why do you look uneasy? Did someone trouble you?' Just the thought of someone troubling Samantha made the King livid, and he had the sudden urge to kill whoever it was.

I cannot see her in sorrow. Samantha, I vowed to keep you happy forever. Are you trying to me break my vow on the first day itself, sweetheart?'
