“Martin!”

Carmella looked at him in horror as she clutched his hand. She scanned around—there were only a handful of

guards in the main hall, and the two attendants were close to her.

She asked for everyone else to be dismissed, leaving her and Martin in the hall.

Carmella took a deep breath and told him softly, “I know that you feel guilty toward Helene, but the reality is as

such. We have no other choice! Keeping her in the west palace for a peaceful rest and using the best medicine on

her all these years are the best we can do for her!

“Besides, with what happened back then… she won’t ascend to this throne.”

Martin jolted, the past vaguely replaying in his mind.

Among the royal family siblings, he was the closest to Helene. He remembered that Helene had been intelligent,

beautiful, and capable growing up. She was a noble and elegant princess to the others, but she turned into a cute

and playful girl in front of her brother.

There was a stretch of beach outside the palace. It was Martin and Helene’s secret place.

The siblings would go there every day after school, taking off their shoes and chasing after waves barefoot. The

seagulls would roam free in the sunset, and their laughter would echo throughout the beach. Sometimes, Helene

would hop onto Martin when tired and ask him to walk carrying her.

“Helene, when you find a boyfriend next time, you have to find someone who can carry you like I do, you hear

me?”

“Hmm… And if I can’t find one?”

“That’s impossible! My sister has both the looks and the talent—and the wealth of the whole of Southeast Aciatic.

Which man wouldn’t like you?”

“Martin, if I can’t find one, I’ll stay in the palace forever, and you’ll carry me forever, okay?”

Martin laughed and nodded. “Okay!”

It was just unexpected that their joke at that time became a prophecy.

Helene had ended up really staying in the palace forever, but her brother, who had promised to carry her forever,

never did carry her again…

“Martin? Martin!” Carmella could not help but worry when she saw him in a daze and gave him a shove. “Did you

hear what I said!?”

“I know.” Martin snapped back to reality and turned to leave.

“Where are you going?”

“I…” Martin bit his lips and uttered with much difficulty. “I want my tickets booked. I want to go to Melorian!”

“You…” Carmella could not believe that he was saying this again.

A few years ago, he had visited Melorian, but the trip had been in vain. She had been under the impression that he

had given up, and neither of them had brought it up again.

Now…

“Your Majesty, think this through! That child might not even be in Melorian anymore. Besides, if you do find her, can

she reunite with Helene? What help does it do to Helene’s state?

“Doing this will only destroy everything… Your throne will be ruined, and Helene might not get better either. As for

the child, she might be living a good life now. Why would you disrupt her peace?”

Martin halted in his steps. His slightly hunched back was stiff and tensed while his facial muscles twitched slightly.

Carmella lowered her tone. “Martin, don’t be blinded by your emotions. Even if we didn’t do that back then, your

mother wouldn’t have forgiven Helene! That child could never be kept in the palace!

“It’s already a huge taboo of the royal family for her to give birth out of wedlock. We sent the child away to protect

the royal family! We didn’t do anything wrong!”

Martin was silent for a beat before he suddenly snickered. “Yeah, when have you ever thought you’re wrong?”

“Martin…”

“That child couldn’t be kept in the palace, but where did you send her to?” Martin’s eyes were bloodshot as he

stared at Carmella. “You left her in a slum in Melorian!”

Carmella choked on her breaths as her hands and feet went cold.

Martin said through his gritted teeth, “And you kept it from me for so many years! You said that you gave the child

to a pair of lawyers! You lied to me!”

As Martin took step after step closer, Carmella abruptly found her back against the cold palace wall. Her knees

gave out, and she fell to the floor kneeling.

The incident was a knot in their hearts, but Martin could only keep it buried deep within him all these years for the

benefit of the bigger picture.

Today, however, the scene where Helene ran out with disheveled hair frightened him and awakened the conscience

hidden deep in his heart. His emotions blew up like an erupting volcano.

He remembered that the day the child was born, it was a brilliant sunny day. Helene had said that her name meant

shining light and was a moon of Saturn, so she named her child something that represented the sun.

The shining moon and golden sun together were as if their mother and daughter bond, never to be separated.

Yet, Carmella had left the little bundle of sun across the ocean, and Martin as Helene’s elder brother had sadly

agreed to such a decision…
