In the end, I was forced to stay inside the palace. A new chamber has been prepared for me to stay in. Four royal guards were guarding my doorway, and more than five servants were put on standby in case I needed something.
Claude couldn't do anything because his father colluded with the court officials. He kept on apologizing to me until I never wanted to see him.
"Your Majesty."
I gritted my teeth from the way the servant addressed me. Ever since I transferred her, everyone had been addressing me as Her Majesty. They already forgot that I am a General.
"What?" I said coldly. I didn't turn around and stayed to see the scenery here on the balcony of my chamber.
"Jack Springer is here to see you."
Gasping, I turned around. "Jack? My secretary?" The servant nodded. "Let him in! Immediately!" I ordered.
"Yes, Your Majesty." She bowed before me and emerged out.
The guards opened the door for him. Relief washed over me seeing my secretary.
