Song Yuli was taken aback, and then sighed softly.
After carefully considering his tone, Song Yuli spoke softly.
"Does it hurt a lot?"
Since Song Yuli couldn't speak Diaz, he had to communicate with Arthur in English.
After hearing this, Arthur bit his lip and nodded slightly, but he had no intention of speaking.
Song Yuli was somewhat discouraged, but remembering the heartache and pleading in the Queen's eyes, Song Yuli pursed his lips and tentatively spoke again.
"Is it because of that guy named Caesar?"
Song Yu noticed that when Arthur heard Xize's name, his intact hand unconsciously clenched into a fist, and his body trembled involuntarily.
Upon seeing this, Song Yuli's heart skipped a beat.
Oh no, I hope that remark didn't offend Arthur.
Just as Song Yuli was about to speak to comfort Arthur, Arthur suddenly looked up at Song Yuli, nodded first, and then shook his head.
Song Yuli was a little confused: "Arthur, what do you mean? Please speak up, I'm a bit slow and don't understand what you mean."
Upon hearing this, a hint of struggle flashed across Arthur's fair face, but when she saw Song Yuli's bewildered eyes, she felt somewhat helpless.
It really is.
Why would her mother ask her to comfort her?
His pale lips pursed unconsciously. Arthur lay on the bed with his eyes closed, and said in a faint voice, "It's not entirely because of Caesar."
Arthur's voice was a little hoarse because he hadn't spoken for a long time.
After hearing this, Song Yuli did not rush to ask Arthur why, but instead poured her a glass of water first.
"Have a glass of water to soothe your throat first, Arthur. Can you sit up?"
After hearing this, Arthur opened his eyes and looked at Song Yuli with a rather speechless expression.
She injured her hand, not her back, so how could she not be able to sit up?
Watching Arthur drink a glass of water, Song Yuli picked up the glass and then spoke, "Why? Arthur, could you explain more clearly? I don't quite understand."
Arthur glanced at Song Yuli, then closed his eyes again.
After a long time, just when Song Yuli thought Arthur had fallen asleep, Arthur suddenly spoke.
"The fact that Caesar and Anna were together didn't hit me too hard, because many people had told me that their relationship was abnormal, but I never doubted them and always believed in them because they were related by blood."
I've always known that Xize doesn't like me, but it's okay, it's enough that I like him.
However, when I heard Caesar say that he was engaged to me for the sake of his family, I felt like my world was about to collapse.
I am a living, breathing human being, not a tool he uses to maintain his family's status.
Looking at Arthur's red-rimmed eyes, Song Yuli pursed his lips, feeling speechless with himself.
Oh no, because of one sentence from her, Arthur was reminded of that awful thing again.
Song Yuli moved his lips, just about to say something to change the subject, when Arthur spoke again.
“After returning to the palace, I locked myself in my room and didn’t dare to see anyone because I didn’t know how to face them.”
Especially my parents. When I wanted to get engaged to Xize, my parents didn't agree at all. I had to beg and plead with them until they finally agreed.
But now that Xize is treating me like this, I have no face to face them at all.
