Chapter 283
"That’s the best decision for you right now. Do not try to argue with anyone in the court. They are all impossible to reason with. They will not allow you to get a word in and since they are trying to push blame on you, they will go low. You must stay here," said Mary.
"Where would I go when I am waiting for Zayne to return? I don’t have any reason to go to the palace no matter who calls. Zayne had already shared with his family that he did not want me to visit the palace. I hope the king never goes against what Zayne wanted," Rose said but she wasn’t confident in Gage.
"I’m sorry to have brought this to you. You are in luck that Lady Catherine is in the palace now and the king should silence anyone speaking ill of you. You are still Zayne’s wife. They must protect a Hamilton," Mary said, hoping the royals wouldn’t turn their backs on Rose now.
If they did, once Zayne returned then they would have hell to pay.
"I am curious," Mary started. "Do you regret coming over to this kingdom?"
Rose smiled. "Over this? No. Such foolish talk can be said anywhere. This is home for me now so I am not regretting that I have come. You don’t need to worry."
"I must. You will receive plenty of attention because of who you are married to. Your parents are nobles but no one is paying any mind to it. In fact, many might not know who your parents are because they have not spoken to you, I assume. Do you ever think of telling the truth?" Mary asked, referring to Rose being a royal.
Rose had big secret after secret and Mary was aware that only three guards knew the truth. Mary, Liam, and Finn.
"I am going to keep it hidden for as long as I can. I will never be the one to reveal it to anyone outside my family. It does not only concern me," Rose said as she had to think of her mother.
