On the other side, King Ducasse took Martha out of the royal palace and went directly to a secluded place.
Martha pursed her lips tightly, her long eyelashes trembling slightly. She knew that King Ducasse was right.
She still had to investigate the true culprit behind her mother's murder in the royal palace. Offending Catherine Queen Dowager now would not be a good thing for her.
But if it wasn't for Catherine mentioning her mother first and angering her, how could she have treated Catherine like that...
As soon as she thought of this, she frowned unconsciously.
After calming down now, Martha suddenly noticed something was wrong. When Catherine mentioned her mother just now, there was obviously something off about her attitude.
Did something happen between Martha's mother and Catherine before?
Seeing that Martha didn't speak, King Ducasse thought she had realized her mistake, and his tone softened.
"It's okay. You don't need to worry about anything else. I will take care of it."
Upon hearing this statement from him, Martha suddenly raised her head to look at King Ducasse uncertainly and asked him a question.
"Did you feel anything strange about Catherine Queen Dowager just now?"
"It's normal for my mother to be angry when she hears that," replied King Ducasse with resignation as he looked at Martha with complicated emotions.
His mother had always been gentle and kind-hearted but today's outburst must have been because of what Martha said.
Not long after he succeeded to the throne, he held a media conference to announce that Martha was his future wife, and now he had to clarify it.
His mother was probably worried about he would a bad impression on the people of Z Country, so she was so angry.
He unconsciously tightened his hand by his side, as an image flashed through his mind, causing him slight discomfort, but he didn't pay too much attention.
When Martha heard this, her eyes darkened, her thin lips were slightly pursed, and she didn't continue the topic.
