Disapproving Glares

The ambassador could barely sit still, after receiving a heartbreaking report of the lost princess's horrifying ordeal in the hands of commoners.

He couldn't believe that the princess was married into the family of swindlers and criminals, for five excruciating years.

He was consumed in agonizing fury when he listened to tales of how the princess was betrayed, beaten and kicked out into the street by those who were supposed to protect her.

As if that wasn't enough to make his already bleeding heart explode, he got more reports of how the princess was abused by her former employer, disgraced by the public and reduced to a rag doll that anyone could trample on.

The only heartwarming news he received was from the couples who stood by the princess in her moment of grief and Richmond, who brought the princess temporal peace.
