At this point, though Taylor had come, he was not entirely convinced. He felt a bit dragged there by his mother, his bruised face still carrying an air of defiance.
He seemed like a spoiled child, not meeting Rowan's gaze, not out of fear, but out of disdain.
Rowan's face grew colder, his gaze sweeping lightly over the three. He led Claire down, understanding their thoughts at this moment.
Claire felt a bit uneasy. She swallowed hard, feeling somewhat unnatural. Such a thing happening to her made her feel ashamed and embarrassed.
After descending the stairs, Rowan stood with Claire in front of the three.
There was a distance of about a meter between them. Rowan's face remained grim, a hint of coldness in his eyes, not wanting to see these people.
"Your Highness," Julie, out of courtesy, made a respectful bow.
Claire also responded, "Your Highness," her voice soft, carrying an imperceptible unease.
Her son had been beaten like this, his mother must be verydistraught, right?
But Claire didn't want to escalate the situation any further. So, she organized her thoughts, intending to explain the entire situation from start to finish. She didn't want the queen to only hear Taylor's side of the story.
"Miss Russell," Katherine spoke up, sighing softly. "Prince Louis, Taylor's behavior today was thoughtless. I brought him here to apologize." Her sincere attitude was unexpected.
Rowan's countenance remained icy. His gaze fell on the woman. "Just thoughtless? This is despicable behavior." His chilling gaze sent shivers down their spines.
"Yes, yes, yes," Katherine nodded quickly, not wanting to provoke him. "It was despicable. You've already given him a good lesson, he will definitely remember it."
Rowan understood that this apology was from the mother, and Taylor wasn't mute, so he must have been compelled to come here, right?
Taylor didn't realize the seriousness of the situation.
