The missing prince

Arthur's decision

One day that cold winter, Arthur was looking at the city from the castle window. He was looking at the people and the horses pulling the carriages. That city was full of vitality, despite the winter. Arthur looked at his wife, Victoria, as she was sitting in the chair, knitting wool near the fireplace fire, and he said to her, “To every, beginning  end” ،
Victoria said  "What do you mean, Arthur?"
He said, “Don’t you see that Edward is ready to take over the rule of this kingdom?”
These are things that are not for jokes, Arthur, she said, laughing
He said I'm not kidding
Victoria was shocked by her husband's decision and was looking into his eyes, perhaps finding something joking in them, but Arthur was clearly serious and strict.
She spoke after a minutes of shock
My son, Edward, is an ambitious and intelligent young man, and I know that he will be a great king one day, but don’t you see that this step is a little early, Arthur?
He said, “I have thought about something a lot, and my decision is not a coincidence, so be confident in my decision and there is no need to think and worry.”
