Chapter 130
"Long time no see you, Hope . " I smiled at the brown-haired woman seated beside Daisy . "You are as beautiful as always . "
Hope's eyes brightened when she saw me, but in the next second, her eyes dimmed and she lowered her head .
A few seconds later, she looked at me with an indifferent expression and bowed . "Your highness . "
She then looked at Daisy and smiled . "Thank you for accompanying me to talk . I'll need to leave now . "
Then, without waiting for Daisy to reply, she bolted towards the door and ran away .
I looked amusedly at the scene, but instead of stopping Hope, I let her go . I then looked at Daisy and smiled wryly . "Sorry, Daisy . It looks like I have to deal with this first . "
Daisy smiled sweetly and shook her head . "Don't worry, your highness, I understand . Go after sister Hope, and please, treat her well . Sister Hope is a very pitiful person . "
I stroked Daisy's short hair and kissed her forehead . "Don't worry, I know what to do . "
After that, I followed after Hope .
In truth, I just needed to take one step to catch up with her, but I wanted to let her vent her sadness out first . I could feel that Hope's mental state was not the best at this moment .
For a brief instant, I could not help but feel a bit depressed . After helping Claire and coaxing Lena, Hope is the third woman I had to hear out today . I wonder why I find this more tiring that killing a demon god .
Actually, killing demon gods is much more entertaining . At least it allows me to blow off a little bit of steam .

After Hope left my room, she ran through the palace's corridors while letting out tears . She finally stopped when she reached a secluded place and started to cry quietly .
She did her best to wipe her tears with her hands, but new tears would form in the next second . Her beautiful brown eyes turned red and puffy due to the incessant tears .
"Be strong, Hope . " She whispered to herself between sobs . "This is for the best . "
"What is for the best?" I approached Hope from behind and spoke with a sigh .
"P-Prince!?" Hope was surprised, but in the next second, she looked away and tried to hide her tears . "W-What are you doing here?"
I sighed sadly and walked towards her . My hand reached towards Hope's cheek and wiped her tears gently . "As I thought, you are more beautiful when you are smiling . "
A startled expression appeared on Hope's face . She bit her lips hard and forced back the tears that wanted to escape her eyes .
"Why are you like this, Hope?" I asked while looking right into her eyes . Hope's shivered feeling my gaze, but then, she looked away .
Biting her lips until a drop of blood fell formed on them, Hope reunited all the courage inside her and forced herself to talk .
"… Your highness, I'm sorry, but this must stop . I can be considered as his majesty's woman, and I'm her majesty's confidant . I, I can't betray her like this . "
