Feeling of regret started to claw his chest. He had not given the palace of his mother to the empress but he could not deny that he had developed an affinity for her.
"I will never forget my mother!" he announced but she just shook her head with a look of disappointment on her face.
"Of course, you would not. I will never let you since I will never accept that you have forgotten her sacrifice.
You must remember that her only wish was for you to be the crown prince and future emperor of the empire
And for that you have to thrive hard.
Do you think that the empress loves and cares for you?
She could only have two motives while approaching you.
Firstly, she wanted to be in your good books so that she would wait for you to lower your guard and then she would attack you to get rid of you. So that her son could take your place.
