Time passed, and eventually, the first prince left the hall. The festivities of that marriage didn't last long after that. With that, Qia could be said to be free to go with Rean wherever she wanted. After all, you couldn't have the married couple separating soon after, right? They still had 'that' event to go through.
Salael finally got up from his table and extended his hand to Rean.
"Take care of her. Also, I want great-grandchildren as soon as possible, understood?"
At that point, all the parents and grandparents present were of the same mind. Harmalia, Turen, Nivol, Ariana, Salael... By now, they already understood that Rean hadn't impregnated Qia at all. So, for their own reason, be it making a bigger family or be it for political reasons, they wanted to see that fake news transform into the truth.
Rean smiled and continued his pretense as he shook hands with Salael.
"Don't worry, Senior Salael. I'll work hard."
