"Your mother is always on your side. Just be honest with what you want. My Stella will always get what she wanted," Duchess Amelia stroked her hair and assured her that no matter what she says, her mother would be there for her.
Stella was so touched that she cried again. It felt so nice to have a mother like that. She felt a bit bitter about her life as Yeong-ja wherein her mother didn't care about her.
'Right. Everyone in this world is real. Because this is my reality now. I'm truly grateful for having them as my family.'
Stella then revealed to them that Prince Aiden had confessed his feelings for her and asked for her hand in marriage. She excluded the unnecessary parts (a.k.a the embarrassing moments that made her heart pound) and just went straight to the point as if nothing else happened.
Of course, she didn't mention Prince Aiden crying and falling to his knees either when she asked him to forget about her.
