Chapter 667

• “Mrs. McGowen, I do apologize for imposing,” I said, as the brother and sister stood behind them, their heads also bowed. I hated their submissive natures with the news I had to give them. It didn’t feel right to me.
• “Your Majesty,” they both said in unison.
• “Please sit,” I said to them, and sat down again. As they all sat down, I could feel the uncomfortableness of the whole situation. I hated Rupprecht even more because I had to break this family.
