Not until dinner was over did the king inquire about why he had beaten Taylor.
The king always believed there was a reason for everything. He left the children to resolve their conflicts on their own, believing it to be the wisest choice for parents not to intervene.
Rowan did not file a complaint.
The following morning, Prince Taylor was in his palace.
"Ah, ah... ouch... Ah!"
"Your Highness!" The servants guarding the door rushed in, shocked by his painful appearance. One of them supported the struggling Taylor.
"Ah!" he yelled in pain, "Be gentler, for God's sake!"
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" The servant quickly let go, too scared to assist him. It seemed like he had exerted too much force just now, but it wasn't intentional.
"Your Highness... Do you want to get up?" Another servant asked nervously, wanting to help but not daring to.
Another servant turned and left, running outside to call the queen.
"For heaven's sake!" Taylor sat on the bed, grimacing in pain, "I need to use the bathroom..."
Having endured the entire night, he had struggled for half an hour to sit up just now, feeling utterly incapacitated. Any movement caused excruciating pain throughout his body.
"Come on, let me help you..."
"Be gentler, damn it!" Taylor was furious. The sensation of needing to urinate was unbearable; it felt like he was about to explode.
With the two servants supporting him cautiously, Taylor finally, with great effort and pain, got out of bed and laboriously made his way to the bathroom...
When Katherine and Julie hurriedly arrived, they found Taylor being helped back to bed. His steps were like those of a terminally ill old man, devoid of strength, making even a small step a laborious task.
