Chapter 163

In the palace, the royals parted as dinner came to an end. 

"Mother, you need to speak to her," Henry whispered to Lilian. He watched as Kiara walked ahead with her maids following her. "She's not doing her part to get that man to marry her. Father will not listen to me if I tell him."

"Henry, I told you to stop thinking about Kiara and do your best to impress your father. Now is the time for you to be at his side bringing up good ideas to get the truce done. If your father fails, this war might go into your rule. If you are alive to become king," said Lilian.

"I have been at father's side offering my ideas but he dismisses them. She is plotting something. She spoke of wanting to be queen but she has not done anything," Henry said, wary of Kiara's next move. "She would kill me if you could."

"She is your sister-"

"Do you fully believe that she would not kill me?" Henry questioned his mother.
