Cynthia bursted into tears and rushed out of he room.
"Wait Cynthia that's not what I meant!"
The king tried to call out to her but she had already ran off.
Cynthia was sure she was in a very deep shit. But as long as no one saw her she won't be discourvered and her lies will just be buried. But she suddenly jerked in fear when she remembered Alice was still Alive and was just unconscious.
She suddenly started to scratch her head and pace up and down her room in panick.
Should she turn herself in to her father? Maybe he would be able to help her like she said.
She just had to come up with a way to shift the blame on Alice and make herself look innocent.
Back in the throne room the royal physician walked into the kings chambers and sat opposite the king who was in deep thoughts and didn't even seem to know when he came in.
"Are you asleep my king?"
The old man asked and the king stared at him.
"No I'm not, any news about what happened to my daughter?"
