“And so what? Would this be the first time something like this will happen to anybody ?” Rebecca said, dismissing her daughter's emotions.Hana was taken by surprise by the way her mother had handled the matter!She had expected her mother to be more concerned about how she was feeling and if the prince was hurting her but no!She didn't care what her daughter was going through. All she wanted to know was if the prince still wanted to marry her or not!“Think about this! He is a crown prince! If we do not get this money and this prestige that comes to being related to Royal family, we are as good as useless!” Rebecca reminded.“Mother, I'm talking about a man who threatened me! A man who took the girl he was with, possibly to kill her and you are telling me….”“Shut that hole in your mouth up and make sure no one else ears about this! What exactly is your problem?

She didn't waste any more time to get things started.“I understand your fears but prince Keith is nowhere to be found. The guards have searched everywhere for him but no one can find him. He seem to have dropped from the surface of the earth. We can't and I repeat we can't leave the throne empty. We need to do what is right and needful at this minute.” “What are you suggesting that we do then?
