Chapter 212: Bunny's Teary Confession (II)

"But, Princess…"

"If you two continue to argue with me to defend her, then you two can leave the room," Swan interrupted coldly. "I do not need attendants who prioritize their friend over me in a critical situation."

The cat maids immediately trembled in fear. They had never seen Princess Swan saying something so cold and distant. They had been dedicating their lives to her and thought that their Princess was a soft-hearted woman who wouldn't even hurt a fly. 

That's why seeing Princess Swan showing her coldness like this caught them off guard. 

The cat maids felt conflicted, but they decided not to argue anymore, as they knew Princess Swan was their King's beloved wife. 

"You cannot leave this room until you eat the remaining food on the breakfast tray," Swan repeated, and Alice knew she would probably be on the brink of death if she ate the poisoned white rice and ginger tea.
