They finally arrived at the harbor and because it was already night, they decided to rent an inn to stay the night.
At this time. Althea had regained her energy back, though she didn’t think she was doing well mentally. It still brought <b>so </b>much pain to return to thisnd.
She thought, she would never step in this ce anymore, but here she was
“Althea, let me help you to carry <b>Jasmine</b><b>,</b>” Abigail said, she approached Althea. She had been trying to get to her <b>good </b>grace and Althea allow her once to y with Jasmine, but ever since that time, she had been pestering her, thinking everything was alright and forgiven.
However, Jasmine answered that for her, as she hugged her mother’s neck tightly and then waved her hand to Abigail.
“No… no. Jasmine said clearly, <b>she </b>didn’t want to be bothered with her time with her momma, thus Althea didn’t need to say anything and walk <b>away </b>from there.
From the corner of her eyes, Althea could see how devastate Abigail was with Jasmine’s reaction, but to her credit, she didn’t make a big of deal out of it and probably it was because Brian was there and he watched every move that she made.
Brian was true to his <b>word </b>that he wouldn’t let Abigail or Willow tried to manipte Althea anymore, he <b>was </b>standing by her daughter <b>and </b>granddaughter’s side and somehow, <b>Althea </b>found she wasfortable with her father to a certain level, but not to the point that she would spend her time with him and talked about life.
After that, all of them went to the inn. Thankfully also, after that night, Killian had never tried to <b>sneak </b>into her bedroom again and have ate night ‘conversation, because that event had messed with her mind and she had a hard time to fall asleep.
Even when she was sleeping, she would jolt awake when she heard <b>a </b><b>small </b>noise and this would leave her with a headache in the morning.
However, tonight when they finally settled in the inn, it was not Killian, who actually bothered her at night, but it was Willow.
She had been keeping her <b>distance </b>with her because Brian had given her a stern warning, but Althea would asionally see her, staring at her and Jasmine from distance. She couldn’t say what was in her mind, because her expression was unreadable.
But <b>tonight</b>, it seemed she <b>had </b>lost all of her patient and decided to talk to Althea no matter what their father’s reaction would be.
She shook her awake and Althea startled the moment her hand touched her. Belongs to N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
“<b>What </b>are you doing here?” Althea asked, annoyance in her voice when she saw Willow was there. She couldn’tprehend how <b>could </b>peoplee and go her room as they pleased?
She didn’t know whether she chose to have Willow or Killian, who <b>would </b>wake her up, but she thought she didn’t want both of them at all in her bedroom.
“I want to talk with you,” she said in <b>small </b>voice, she looked afraid there was someone found out that she <b>was </b>in Althea’s bedroom. She should be.
“I don’t want to <b>talk </b>with you, go out of my room now.”
Willow was startled. They said that Althea had changed, she had seen it herself, but to be kicked out of the room by her, this must be the first time.

Growing up, she didn’t pay attention too much on her little sister, but then, she didn’t pay close attention to anything that didn’t take her interest
However, Willow remembered how Althea would cater to all of her need, even if she didn’t, their parents would intervene and she would do it in the end
Therefore, it came as a surprised that Althea talked harshly toward her, but she bit her tongue, knowing the situation was not
the same anymore.
“You really have changed…” Willow muttered under her breath.
“Get out, Willow”
“Let’s talk now and I will not bother <b>you </b>anymore.” Willow said. She sat down on the edge of the bed and stared at Jasmine’s sleeping face. “I have a solution for your situation. <b>Give </b>me five minutes to let you know about my idea.”
“No. Get out now,<b>” </b>
Willow shook her <b>head</b>. “Althea, even if it’s not now, I will find a way to talk to you in the future. You and I know that there will be some point that <b>you </b>will have this conversation with me and I think you should hear my idea about this and decided whether you will do it or not.”
Althea looked at the door, she wanted to push her away from the room and continue to sleep, but at the same <b>time</b>, she was curious about what Willow so called ‘idea
“Five minutes, after that you need to leave.”
“Sure.” Willow nodded and then smiled softly at Althea. “I will not take much of your time, <b>because </b>I know that you need to get some rest,” she said softly.
However, Althea shook her head. “What the idea?”
And then, Willow said the most ridiculous thing that Althea had ever heard, she didn’t know whether she was stupid or her mind <b>was </b>scattered, but the idea that she gave to her was almost like she suggested for her to cut her hand and then be fine with it, or even thanked her for that.
“You can leave Jasmine here with me, under my care,” Willow said straight to the point.
“Excuse me?” Althea narrowed her eyes dangerously.
Willow’s point was; because Jasmine was the sore eyes in the kingdom and she <b>was </b>the cause of the <b>trouble</b>, since she was the king’s real daughter and in her opinion Killian only wanted Althea back because Jasmine was his firstborn, thus by leaving Jasmine with Killian would solve their problem.
“You can go back to the kingdom and be with king Alex <b>and </b>Killian will not bother you anymore, since he has his daughter.”
