"We don't owe anymore, so we don't have to apologize to each other." Liliana bowed half her body politely in front of Aiden, saying goodbye to him.
"Wait a minute Bella, um.I mean Miss Liliana."
"What's your highness?" liliana's sahut to the King of Gallahan.
"There's still something I want to talk about. I still have a question for you, may I ask?" aiden asked Liliana, asking her permission to ask him.
In her mind and heart there are still questions about Liliana, including her past with Maximillian. "Okay, please ask."
"Is it true that you are the former crown princess of Istvan kingdom?" Aiden asked with a bit of fret. I don't know what made him nervous.
"Hem, yes." replied Liliana with a bitter smile.
"Then..Who is the child in your womb, the son of king Istvan?" aiden asked while looking at Liliana's flat stomach.
"true." Liliana replied firmly and did not lie. He had expected that Aiden would ask him, because Aiden overheard a conversation between him and his father. "Your Majesty, King Istvan does not yet know about the existence of this baby. No one can know."
"Yes, if you ask me to keep a secret then I'll take care of it." Aiden smiled bitterly. He looked troubled and continued to sigh.
Did she ask me to keep the baby a secret because she didn't want to go back to king Istvan or something else? Damnit damnit! I'm very curious.
"Thank you.if there's nothing to talk about anymore, I beg your noble resignation." Liliana pleaded for resignation.
"Miss Liliana, wait! Aren't you mad at me? I lied to you about my identity!"
"angry? I was just disappointed because I thought we were close friends. But, it's okay.we both hide each other's identities, so break even right?"
"Oh that's right." Aiden's lips were rounded. Aiden looks nervous and does not talk much as usual when he is with Liliana.
Aiden, dare..ayo asked, why are you silent? Don't you want to know how she feels?
"Miss Liliana, I'm sorry.maybe I was impudent to ask this. But this really holds my heart."
Liliana looked at the man in front of her with sharp eyes. Hinting that he allowed Aiden to ask him. "W-why are you going back to King Istvan?"
Liliana's eyes widened. "Your Majesty, what do you mean by return?"
"You have a child with him, doesn't that mean you'll get back together" Aiden argued.
Liliana raised her shoulders, her eyebrows also raised. The woman sighed, sighing long. "Your majesty, why are you asking me something like this?" liliana's voice sounded like she was angry.
"I'm sorry if I offend you, I'm just curious.because King Istvan is with a woman beside him." Aiden felt Liliana's anger and emotion towards him.
"It's none of my business anymore, me and the noble King Istvan are divorced" Liliana said with a cynical smile. She was so emotional hearing Max with the other woman beside her.
"I'm sorry for offending you again." Aiden apologized once again to Liliana.
Can't stand the tears that have been pooled, finally the tears came back out.
Why go out again? Especially in front of others?
"I'm sorry, it looks like I have to leave immediately." Liliana wiped her tears with her bare hands.
Aiden thrust a handkerchief in the pocket of his robe at Liliana. "Pregnant women should not be sad, later the baby will also be sad. She felt her mother's emotions." Aiden smiled gently.
Liliana took the handkerchief, she wiped her tears.
If the one standing in front of me was her, she would definitely wipe my tears with her own hands. Why are you still thinking of an impossible relationship, Liliana?
"My mom said it when my mom was holding me. He said that he often gets advice from doctors, if the emotions of a pregnant woman can affect the child in the womb. Since then, my mother has always been smiling and happy."
"Well, that seems to be true. Even you look happy and cheerful noble. Thanks for the advice, and the story. I'll try not to be sad."
"Yes, I hope you don't grieve."
I better talk about my feelings later, he would need some time to sort out his feelings after meeting with king Istvan. Aiden, who was about to declare love for Liliana and introduce the woman to her mother, temporarily abandoned her intentions.
Liliana leaves the party, and is escorted by Duke Geraldine. The party atmosphere, his encounter with Max and Julia gives him a headache.
At the talks they did not go as smoothly as expected. Even the existence of the baby in the womb is not known by Max.
Duke Geraldine and Liliana spoke in the modest house where Liliana had been living for two months. Doris brews two cups of tea for Duke Geraldine and Liliana.
"Thank you Doris,"
"Together, miss." Doris bowed half her body while saluting Liliana Duke Geraldine. Then the girl left the middle house.
The father and son were talking there. About Istvan's kingdom, Max, as well as the future of Liliana and her son. "Lily, your son's whereabouts shouldn't be hidden."
"I was going to tell her, but she let me down. Do you know how I felt when I saw him with that woman? My heartache. If I tell her that I'm carrying her child at a time like this, how will this already complicated relationship be completed? He was still in a relationship with that woman!"
"Lily, your Majesty the King will soon get rid of Miss Julia. Your Honor, bring Miss Julia here because your majesty has planned something big. You have to trust him, he still loves you."
The plans? What plan? I don't give a shit!
Liliana astonished. "Dad, why did you change your mind? Before my father challenged me to return with his Majesty the King, now why do you support me back to return to him?"
"That's because you're going to have a child. A child needs both parents to take care of him together. I think, your majesty still loves you very much.Its proof that she asked you to come back with her, right?" Duke Geraldine said softly.
"Father is right, indeed a child needs both parents to care for and provide affection. But, as long as there is still that woman around the noble King, I cannot do anything about it. We don't know a human heart, dad.if she or her people know that I'm pregnant. I don't know what he's gonna do to harm me, I already know half the severity of palace politics. To be honest, I don't want to be involved with the palace or the kingdom and its people."
Liliana explains to Duke Geraldine at length that she can't go back to Max while there are Julia and people who can harm her and her child.
After talking to his father about his relationship and Max. His father asked again about how Liliana knew Aiden. Liliana replies that Aiden is her best friend and she had no idea that Aiden was a king before.
"Lily, is it possible that the noble King of Gallahan has feelings for you?" Duke Geraldine guessed how King Gallahan felt about his daughter.
"That can't be dad, I'm a woman who's pregnant with someone else's child. She knows that and she can't possibly like a pregnant woman like me. We are just friends and after this I will stay away from him" Liliana said firmly.
"Okay son, I will support all your decisions. If you really want to, I just want you to be comfortable and happy Lily."
"Thank you dad, I'm sorry I've been embarrassing you all this time." Liliana lowered her head in guilt.
Duke Geraldine hugged her daughter while calming Liliana's torn and mixed heart. "No, I don't feel ashamed at all.you are a good daughter and you are my pride."
"Thank you, thank you..." Liliana took off her father's embrace and smiled. "Oh yes dad, how is Adara and her content?" ask Liliana worriedly.
"Oh yeah.. I almost forgot, there's a letter for you from him." Duke Geraldine reached into the pocket on the top of his shirt. He took a piece of envelope there. Liliana smiled when she saw the letter.
"It turns out he still remembers me. Dad, I'll read it in the room."
"All right, son."
Liliana said to go back to her room because she was tired and wanted to rest. As he was about to return to the room, there was a knock on the door outside his house.
Geck, tok, tok!
