Chapter 336
Amelia sat with her mother in one of the guest rooms, waiting for Killian to return from the underworld with her father. She thought about all the things she wanted to say to him in the short amount of time she had with him.
Amelia and Anne decided to split the time with Richard so there would not be any back and forth with what they wanted to say to him. They would not be speaking over each other, and not getting anything resolved in the end.
Amelia would go first since she had said a lot to her father in the last few weeks while he was still alive. It was her mother who had the most unfinished business with him. Amelia planned for her time to not be half an hour, so she would give her mother more time to end the bitter relationship with her former husband.
Anne was the one who needed more of a final conversation with Richard. Amelia mostly wanted to speak about what he missed out on because of his lack of faith in her and let him hear from her mouth that she now sat on his throne.
Amelia reached over to her mother’s chair and held her hand to comfort her. She knew her mother’s strong personality would help her deal with Richard, but this talk today would open up a lot about the past.
Anne smiled, squeezing Amelia’s hands to tell her that she was alright.
The door of the room opened and Killian was the first to walk in. There was a sound like chains dragging behind him, and positioning her body to get a good look behind him, Amelia saw that it was her father with chains covering his body.
Richard looked lively, and if she didn’t know any better, she would not think he was dead. Amelia thought that she might sound foolish now if she said out loud that she was expecting something like a ghost to walk inside the room behind Killian.
It looked like her father still had his body and nothing had happened to him. Like she could poke at him and feel his skin.
