Chapter 1275
The king broke out in a cold sweat. He had no idea that while he was trying to pressure Davey, he was instead the one being backed into a corner.
“First, calm down. That accusation is completely false,” Davey assured him.
“I want to believe in Your Majesty, but considering the circumstances...”
Someone else suddenly spoke up, shouting, “Prince, you’re being far too rude to His Majesty!”
“Did you say rude?” Davey turned to the high-ranking envoy standing beside the king, and the man gave a firm nod.
“His Majesty simply wants to hear the truth behind the disturbance you have caused in the capital of the Haetan Kingdom. You should be explaining the details of the situation instead of being so disrespectful toward His Majesty!”
So, he wasn’t just some fool who got swept up in the moment.
Davey responded with a soft smile.
It didn’t matter if the man stepped in. Everything that needed to be pushed through had already gone through.
“Forgive the rudeness,” Davey said. “I must’ve lost my composure for a moment, since the Haetan royal family decided to treat such ridiculous rumors seriously.”
“N-No, it's fine. Even I’d be outraged if someone called the wife I love a demon. I understand.”
The king wasn’t exactly a sharp man. Pretty spineless, as well.
