"What have you done, you wretched girl!" Dominic grabbed the nearby vase and hurled it towards his daughter, causing her to freeze in place.
The left-hand man immediately rushed forward using his warrior instincts and stood before the princess, shielding her from the attack.
The vase hit his back, breaking into many shards, and the sound of the glass shattering was more than enough to bring Lilithia out of her shocked state.
"But, father, I thought you wanted to hurt—" She started before stopping, not sure anymore.
Patrick shook his head before sighing.
He always believed there was something special about Amelia that made her likable, and everyone wanted to protect her. When she saved Lilithia, he thought that Lilithia was under good guidance, and maybe if she stayed with Cyrus's wife, she wouldn't stray to the evil path that he chose for his father.
