Like mother like daughter!

"Your highness, I apologise that my wife forgot her place and started to explain our personal matters. But please do not judge our whole family with a single incident. 

I can assure you that my younger daughter is more humble and obedient. She is so meek that she could not even see an ant getting hurt. She is a kind and virtuous lady." The man bowed his head and flattered the crown prince while praising her daughter up to no end.

"So, you mean to say that you have disowned your elder daughter because she married lord Richard?" he asked in a cold voice and they all nodded except Amelia. 

There was something wrong in his tone and did he call the man, lord? Amelia turned to look at the couple again who had already crossed the entrance and was about to enter the carriage soon.

Alcastra also noticed the absence of the couple and ran towards the door with hasty footsteps shocking every person present there.
