256 Killed His Wife

Meanwhile, Gregor received the news of his wife's passing and his daughter's birth still imprisoned in his own chamber. It was such a bittersweet feeling—to realize what should have been a joyous affair had turned into a tragedy. Yet despite his sorrow for Sephina's death, he could only feel fear for what was to come. 

'I cannot let my father kill my newborn daughter as well.' 

Grabbing his sword once more, he stormed out of his chamber where the royal knights stopped him. 

"I am going to see my dead wife. Do you dare stop me?" He brandished his sword and aimed at his throat. "If you dare stop me, I will take my own life."

Seeing the enraged Crown Prince, the knights looked at each other on what to do. 

"Let his Highness leave," the King's knight said who happened to have arrived at that moment.
