Marchioness Krishgar had been nervous for the whole week until one day Annisa suddenly came visit her.
"Annisa! How are you? Are you ok?"
"I'm fine don't worry but why do you looked so haggard? I didn't hear anything happened to you or your son," Annisa said although she could already guess the reason.
"I'm not only worried about you but also about Deon. He had been dispatched to eliminate all the rebels. He didn't come home for a week now. How can I not worry. Especially when that man was said to be the one overseeing the investigation."
Annisa immediately understand who that 'man' was. She couldn't help but felt Hiveta was being biased.
'If Leo really want to kill Deon, his corpse should already be sent home by now. You should be grateful Deon isn't even brought into interrogation.' Annisa thought.
"I heard your son was involved with Count Donovan. Is that true?" Annisa asked.
"He just made a wrong decision in a spite of moment. But he never intended to harm anyone."
"Oh I see. Fortunately my son wasn't hurt that much. If not, I don't know what I will do."
"But why is your son being there to begin with? If he wasn't there, nothing will happened to him. Aren't you my friend?"
Annisa couldn't help but frown, "Yes we've been friends for decades but that doesn't mean I agree with whatever you and your son did. I already told you long time ago 'that son of yours' is different from normal child, so I hope you will pay more attention to him but you did the opposite. You isolate him and didn't seem to care about him.
You're the one who made him like that Hiveta. He's not evil. No child is born evil. What's wrong with my son being friend with him?"
"You- Did he say something to you?" Hiveta didn't expect Annisa to get angry.
"Nothing much. We just have tea together and I saw his children. Both of them are beautiful and kind. That's all. As for my son, he worked with the emperor so of course he will interact with 'him' from time to time. Listen here Hiveta, rebellion will lead to war and war is horrible. Only people who experienced it know how bad war could be. That's why my family always remained neutral. I know your family didn't like the emperor especially when he allow your husband to be killed but be grateful you are not implicated Hiveta."
Annisa tried her best to advice her stubborn friend.
Hiveta was pampered growing up.
She could get whatever she wanted and had been educated well since young as the only daughter of a Duke. However, she didn't know how to give affection to other people. She didn't mind an arrange marriage since it benefits everyone involved
She also treated her children in the same manner: Do whatever she felt would benefit everyone the most.
She gave full attention to Deon the first son who seems talented while ignoring the weak, always falling sick son Hileo.
"........." Hiveta remained silent but Annisa knew she couldn't fully accept what she said.
"Hiveta, as your long time friend, I hope you can advice Deon not to go too far. The emperor may seem like a tyrant but my husband never said he was incompetent. There is almost none demonic monster related death since he took the throne. The barbarian also didn't dare do much. Everyone isn't perfect but he's a decent ruler in my opinion if compared to his brother."
"I will try," that was the only response Hiveta could utter since her mind was still in a mess.
