Emma Lewis had been pensive since Matt had visited her the night before.
His words left a bad taste in her mouth because the more she thought about it, the more she felt that something didn't add up about this considerable mission the leaders had issued.
This mission was not her father's doing; she is sure of it. If anything makes Emma feel annoyance against her father, it is precisely because he does not usually meddle in such vital matters and usually lets his ministers do so.
Naturally, they have given a lot to the Kingdom and have spent hundreds of years serving it to achieve their ranks, but Emma thinks that doesn't mean they are not prone to betray the Kingdom.
That's why she has been feeling bad things in her heart since she learned that Luke White is a traitor.
'Such a close man was a traitor... Maybe many are. It's even possible that guy's father is, and he's one of the high-level ministers,' she thought and groaned in her heart.
