章 215: I'll Escort You Out

The next day, word of the Queen's awakening shuffled through the castle and capital. Everyone was glad to hear she was healthy and well, but no one understood the extent of her injuries. No one, except the King, the twins, and soon, Lydia, who had sauntered past the guards.

"Addy!" Lydia gushed, tears of joy filling her trembling eyes when she saw her best friend sitting in bed, breastfeeding one of the infants whereas the other was squirming in Elias's arms.

"Liddy," Adeline immediately greeted, lifting her head to reveal a soft smile. Her heart pricked at the sight of Lydia in pain.

"You're finally awake, I'm so happy! Oh god, I can't cry, my mascara is expensive!" Lydia cracked a joke, rushing forward to sit upon the bed and peer down. "Your breasts grew."

Elias's eyes instantly flickered towards Adeline.
