175 I Want You To Meet Someone

Somehow Fae didn't want to hope anymore. Hope would only lead to disappointment.

What if Princess Caroline's child was a girl? It's useless, wasn't it?

"Ren, I've decided to leave Almstad and take care of myself and the baby. Please stop stringing me along by giving me hope. It will only hurt me even more. We don't know if Caroline will give birth to a boy or a girl. Even if that happens ... you won't be able to step down with ease. That child would be too young to rule. They would ask you to wait for him to mature and be the prince regent..." Fae closed her eyes. She then lowered his head, not wanting to look at Ren again.

Initially, she wanted to talk about Ren and Amelia's betrothal rumor, but she didn't want Ren to think she was jealous and still wanted to come back to him.
