The Merman King and Queen both laughed on the inside.
They knew that this was their daughter's special move which she had already used on many bachelors in their Merman Empire, so they knew that this was effective.
This was further proven by the crown prince who looked like he had no idea what he was supposed to do now.
The Tide Emperor showed a trace of disapproval for the crown prince for the first time.
At a time like this, he was faltering.
This wasn't like the crown prince that he raised, but he also didn't say anything as he watched what would happen. This was a matter between the crown prince and Ariel, so it wasn't as if he could just butt in if he wanted.
The crown prince actually didn't have a backup plan since he had been confident that this would work.
He had gone in with the full confidence that he would be able to make Ariel his, but in the end…he was just left there with a dumb look on his face.
