Chapter 20: Beach Conversation

Arthur wanted to ask more questions, but he wisely closed his mouth when he saw Queen Victoria, assisted by Princess Beatrice, slowly approaching in a specially-made wheelchair.

Although it was an open secret within the British Empire that Queen Victoria's health was failing, discussing her condition in her presence might make her upset and even worsen her condition.

"Let's go, Arthur. The weather is perfect for enjoying the sea view," Queen Victoria seemed in a good mood, as she was pushed by Princess Beatrice toward Arthur with a smile.

"Yes, Grandmother." Arthur obediently followed.

Queen Victoria had not yet fully experienced the beauty of the sea on White Island since her arrival, due to the cold weather. She had only caught a glimpse of it before staying at the Manor House for an extended period.

Although the Manor House was once inhabited by Queen Victoria and Prince Albert's family, Queen Victoria still felt more nostalgia for the beach.
