A deep breath of courage fled her nose, and she turned around.
She strolled towards the door and pushed it open.
With no escorts following behind her, she proceeded toward her father's chamber and stood in front of it.
The guards quickly announced her presence, and the emperor gave his permission.
They pushed the door open for her, and she stepped inside.
They shut the door behind her, and she let out a deep breath as she stared at her father.
"Good morning, father." She greeted him, and the emperor brought down the book he was reading to look at her.
"Good morning, Daphne. Is there a problem?" He asked.
"No. But... I wish to discuss something with you, as father and daughter, and I really hope that you will listen and understand."
She said it in a pleading manner, and a warm expression slowly spread across the emperor's cold face.
"Have a seat."
He gestured to the chair opposite him at the table, and Daphne walked to sit down.
