Chapter 176: A Grave That Changed the Kingdom
"Why would he do that?" Primrose asked.
But instead of answering, Raven looked at her and asked a different question. "Your Majesty ... do you know where His Majesty went?"
Primrose frowned the moment Raven asked something that didn’t seem related to the Marquess at all. "He had something to take care of outside," she said. "Why are you asking?"
"Because ..." Raven whispered, "His Majesty will be the reason my husband dies."
"All I saw in my vision," she continued hesitantly, "was His Majesty leading my husband to kill himself tonight. I couldn’t hear what he said to the Marquess ... but His Majesty looked so ... angry."
Angry?
Primrose knew Edmund had been investigating whatever the Marquess was hiding from the public, but what kind of secret could possibly make him that angry?
Even when Primrose told him that the Marquess of Moonshadow had been abusing his wife for years, Edmund’s expression hadn’t changed much.
He clearly found the man disgusting and rotten, but his face had stayed calm, almost expressionless.
So ... what did he hear this time?
What kind of truth could shake a man like Edmund—a stoic, cold-faced man—show such visible rage?
