Alora frowned hearing Helena. Helena's words were indeed not helping them. But she couldn't understand Helena's intention.
Looking at the situation worsen, Zander was about to cue his aide to send Helena away but Alora stopped him. She wanted to know if Helena, who admired her and tried to help her, was real or just pretending.
It was an undeniable truth that Helena's mother was exiled from the capital for an indefinite period because of her.
So Alora has to know if she could trust Helena who put her on spot in the royal banquet, then amiable later. She could accept if people judge her at first and then accept her. But she didn't want to fall for fake friendliness.
Helena continued to question the nobles ignoring her father and sister Eleanor who wanted to stop her. Her pressing tone controlled the ears of the nobles, "Have you thought of asking His and Her Royal Highness, why Princess Alora looks different?"
