"Sir ... let's go," Emmelyn said as she knocked on the carriage wall, signaling the coachman to start moving.
When the carriage finally started leaving the palace grounds, Mars was moved from his reverie. He then got on his horse and followed the carriage that brought Emmelyn back to his castle.
The journey for several kilometers went by so fast. Suddenly, they already arrived at the crown prince's castle gate.
The atmosphere in the castle courtyard was very quiet. All the soldiers had returned to their respective stations. Lord Gewen and Lord Edgar were also gone.
The carriage stopped in front of the castle's main entrance, and the coachman immediately helped Emmelyn get off the train. The girl paused for a moment at the castle door, looking at Mars, who still looked lost in thought.
Since the man said nothing at all, Emmelyn could guess that along the way, he had been thinking the same thing as herself.
