When the crown prince finally returned, he saw the anxious butler was waiting for him behind the door.
"What's wrong? Why are you looking so distraught?" Mars asked Roshan. "Where is Lady Emmelyn?"
"Your Highness, she was crying for hours because you didn't come home for dinner," Roshan said carefully. "I did manage to convince Her Highness to eat something before she went to bed. She also took her potion."
He didn't want to seem to interfere with the couple's business. That's why he worded his report carefully.
"Oh..." Mars immediately went to their chamber to find Emmelyn. He was worried when he heard from Roshan that she was crying.
Gosh.. he really forgot to send someone to notify her that he couldn't come home to have dinner together.
Something happened and he was just too excited. The surprise that he had been preparing for Emmelyn for a long time finally arrived. And he wanted to make sure that she received it.
