"What did you say?"
Alec's tone and words surprised King Martin. His brows arched in contempt, feeling disrespected.
Carrying Lauren in his arms, Alec spoke unfazed, "Didn't you violate one of the state's laws first, King Martin? You initiated torture for the crown princess against the rules of the royal family just because of a servant's words."
"Yes, I admit I did not follow the rules. But I know an investigation and a court trial are not necessary. There is solid evidence! Now I demand you to leave the criminal here," the King said firmly.
"Criminal? You and your family stay here then."
Before King Martin could say anything, Alec stormed out of the room and the soldiers followed, leaving the King shocked at the rude treatment he received from his son-in-law. The royal guards were not able to do anything because of Alec's soldiers and the King was too dumbfounded to give them orders.
