Vanessa has a dream.
She dreamed of the past, where, as a child, she was trained in the principles of the Alison family. Her family was not the main descendant of the Alison family. However, as bearers of the same name, they still could not escape the responsibility that came with it.
Her mother, father, and even her brother, all of them were always working hard for the good of the Kingdom they were protecting. Vanessa couldn't remember if they ever spent time together as a family. Perhaps because of that, Vanessa grew up without knowing true love.
"It must have been hard for you."
Alister probably said those words unconsciously after he heard Vanessa was so duty-bound that she needed to marry Alister. Vanessa's condition was the same as Melisa's. Perhaps because of that, Alister still treated her well, even if they were only together because of an arranged marriage.
