"Firstly, I want to thank you for being Prince Raoul's friend for all these years. I'm glad to see him growing more confident since he got to know you, Ariana," King Alexius said to begin with. The whole time, Ariana didn't understand why King Alexius was suddenly paying attention to Prince Raoul like this. That man had also helped her many times when she had a confrontation with Prince Emilio. It was hard for Ariana to imagine that this simple-looking king in front of her was the same person as a father who had the heart to abandon his child for many years.
"Secondly, I would like to apologize for using you to help my son secretly all this time. I had no other choice, Ariana. The Alison family has always been on the side of the truth. So, I thought… maybe you can help my innocent son."
