After sending her maid away, Ana stared at the child who looked so meek and weak and her heart squeezed! How was she able to hurt such a cute child?
She was so blinded with the desire to get love in the past that she did not notice that the child was so young and frail.
Frail! She frowned as she held the wrists of the child and noticed so many marks of scratches on it.
"Why are you injured?" she asked with a frown "and why are you so frail? Did you not get to eat enough in the palace?" her voice was assuming that he blinked.
He raised his head and stared at the petite woman who must be a decade older to him and yet she was complaining like a child. He looked at her with amusement.
"I eat enough, my lady." he replied curtly but she only took it as if he was embarrassed or trying to save those culprits.
