Hugo stammered to find the right words for a moment, before he sighed and said. "Forgive me Hailey, I did not mean to cause offence, Something caused me to become suspicious of that man and that was wrong of me."
He paused to see Hailey's face grow slightly softer before he continued. "As for Gabrielle." Hugo did not want to tell Hailey that she was currently unstable, as Gabrielle tends to flick a switch around Hailey and turns back to normal.
"She is currently on a mission, a hunt, I am expecting to hear from her soon. Apologies, If I had known you would be here, I would have told her in advance and she would have definitely been here. Now I will not bother you any longer." Hugo then bowed and walked away in the direction of King Dickon.
"Good for you for standing up for Apollo sweetheart." Kathrine said as she rubbed Hailey's back. Hailey blushed slightly as she looked down to the floor. "Well he Is my future husband, it is only natural I defend him against slander."
