"Jace also said something about you betraying your family," Rose began when she noticed that she might not be able to get any answer from Liam concerning that.
"Yes, my family made it a taboo for a male from my family to marry someone from the royal family. Our loyalty lies with the throne," Liam replied.
"When my mother died I don't remember seeing anyone from your family protecting her," Rose said in disbelief. Why do they keep saying that it was their duty to protect the throne when her mother died in a faraway country?
"You must have forgotten all the stories your mother told you about her kingdom. The Hart family has always been the loyal servant of the Queen. It might not have been known by most people because our service to the throne was a secret. We are meant to help the Queen when no one else could help. We accumulated wealth to help the Queen in serious economic situations and we maintained our wealth since we became so connected to the kingdom's economy that a mistake from us will definitely affect the kingdom's economy.
"My father helped your mother the moment things began getting hard for her why do you think the rumors that your mother had an affair with my father began? The person who started the rumor knows about the relationship the Hart family has with the Queen. Perhaps they caused the problem to make my father show his support. I have people investigating that and the moment all the dots are connected, I will kill the person myself.
"My father was fighting for his life with the men working with my family all disoriented since a lot of them died when my father was attacked. When your mother disappeared from the palace, my father was unconscious to know what was happening or even offer his help. When he woke up, he was at the point of losing everything. He almost lost his company and all the wealth his family took centuries to accumulate. You and your mother were also gone. He began trying to find you and your mother.
"It took a while for my father to recover everything while trying to save his company and the dying economy. You might not believe it since you never got to witness it but this kingdom was in a total mess when your mother disappeared that is why they blame her. She was also framed for a lot of crimes she never committed. They all forgot the power and kindness she always showed as queen.
"My father still blames himself for being useless when you both needed him most but that is a thing of the past that's why he offered you help," Liam gave her a very detailed explanation.
She felt at lose when he stopped talking. She wanted the music she heard in his voice to continue. She wanted to also hear more about his family more about the history he wanted her to know.
"I betrayed my family because I wanted to help you get the throne but in a more powerful and ruthless way than my father would have helped," he said. He took her silence when he stopped talking earlier as an indication that she wanted to hear the answer of the real question she asked and not the imaginary one he wanted to answer.
"Oh . . ." she said snapping out of the day dream she enjoyed from listening to his voice. How could someone's voice sound so sweet that she did not notice the lies in them? He betrayed his family to help her? Bloody lie!
" . . . And to become king," he said added when he noticed she was very skeptical about the answer he gave.
"So, you left your brother and father because they did not want you to become king which is against your family's tradition. You wanted what they call a taboo and had to leave them to get it. You are really just as cruel as Jace said you were. How can I be sure that you will not betray me when you find something else you want just as badly as this?"
"Is there anything greater than being king?" he simply asked without a direct answer. A direct answer will most likely displease Rose since she won't believe him anyway.
"It depends," Rose answered.
"As time goes on, I will help you know all you need to know about the history of your kingdom. I spent a lot of time learning it while growing up," Liam offered to help his fiancée.
"Thanks in advance," she had to appreciate. She read all the history books she found in the library at home but it seems all her effort was fruitless.
Liam told her a lot of things she was not aware of while they sat together outside. He told her very painful stories of what her people were going through that no one seemed to notice. They were all stories that motivated her to take the throne away from her father. She wanted a division at this point. She did not want the two kingdoms to remain together since her people were not treated right by her father's people.
It was after sun set and night was slowly arriving that Liam stood up ready to leave. "I have to go but I don't mind staying with if you want me to," he told her.
"Bye and thank you. I took a lot of your time," she said hastily although very sincerely as she ignored what he said and stood up too.
"I am glad I could be of help," he accepted her appreciation with a slight smile.
She nodded. He was of very great help to her. It has been a while since she felt this good just listening to someone talk. He was like motivational speaker trying to awaken an unbendable desire for her to work hard to save her people. She was very much motivated. She was determined to help and support her people.
"Whenever you need anything, let me know. I don't care what it is. I will ensure you get it," he promised her just before he left the garden. His promise lingered in the air for while when he left.
