Lord Bennett had already ordered the servants of the King's Court to clean a room that was adjacent to his own room. And he assigned that room to Prince Edwin so that he could keep an eye on the Prince if he tried to plot some evil schemes against the Princess.
Yes, he trusted the judgment of the Princess to take in her brother as her follower. But it was his duty to make sure that no harm would befall her.
Prince Edwin settled down in his new workroom. He was looking at some files that Bennett had provided him with. And before it was lunchtime, one of the guards of the King's Court came to his room and informed him, "Your Highness, I am here to deliver a message. Her Majesty Queen Lillian has returned back from her visit to Frostford and is asking an audience with you."
Edwin's heart started beating up rapidly when he heard that his mother was back at the Palace and was looking for him. He couldn't help but feel like he had betrayed her by siding with Adeline.
