"Forgive me for leaving you hanging, my lady," King Adamos said after nibbling a piece of meat. "I know I have told you to eat with me. But I have too many things on my hands right now."

Maybe it's because she was curious about him being supernatural, as he said. And because he could perhaps help her find her mother.
The man in the dungeons indeed told her that she would know about her once she became the queen. That means it could somehow be related to him.
"I am but a maid, your Majesty," Evie bowed her head humbly. "But tell me, what is it that is bothering you? I might be of help somehow."
