"Alas! Always so cold despite having a soft heart! I would have liked it if you were a little more honest like your mother instead of being cold and arrogant to outsiders like your father," the Queen commented but the Crown Prince didn't seem to mind it.
"I only need to show the real me to those who deserve it," the Crown Prince said as he looked at Esther. "Is she deserving?"
Esther was listening to his sarcastic tone without showing any reaction. Although Prince Theron didn't like her even a bit, she could feel it from the way he was talking that he was merely a cautious person. Say, if Esther was not staying with his mother and had probably simply received some other reward for saving the Queen, he would have probably treated her as air.
