Amelia's words caught everyone off-guard, and everyone looked at the King in surprise, wanting to see if he was angry.
King Cyrus, who would've usually snapped at being used like that, just leaned back in his chair before smirking.
On the other hand, Amelia, who realized what nonsense she spoke to save herself, closed her eyes.
She made a mistake. He would retaliate, and this time, it would be over for her. She sighed and was about to correct herself when King Cyrus's words stopped her.
"She is right," He said.
Amelia turned to look at him, her pupils dilated.
She looked straight into his eyes, and the man looked back at her with an equal intensity, challenging her to return her words.
She gulped. Why did she feel that rather than saving and helping her, he was indirectly trapping her into an invisible trap where she invited herself?
"The case is clear then. We are sorry for the inconvenience, Mrs. Amelia," Brandon Silver said.
