At this moment, Helena was leaning against the soft bedrest, and she was feeling very weak.
She hesitated as she held her cell phone in her hand. After that, she sent a video call request to her mother who was far away in Northern Europe.
There was a six-hour tdifference between the countries in Northern Europe and Eastcliff. It was 1 pm in Eastcliff time, which would be exactly 7 am in Northern Europe time.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBased on Helena's understanding of her mother, she would certainly be awake by now. 2 Very soon, the video call was connected. Helena's mother was sitting alone at the table as she ate breakfast over the other end of the video. 1 When Helena's mother saw Helena, she could not help but smile and say, "How are you feeling in Oskia? Is there anything that you cannot get used to there?" Helena wanted to say that she could not get used to everything in Oskia, but she was afraid that her mother would be worried and distressed. Therefore, she could only force a smile and say, "There is nothing that I cannot get used to here. Everything is fine." After saying that, Helena saw that her mother, who was on the other end of the video call, was only having a glass of milk, a few slices of bread, and a small piece of butter for breakfast. She could not help but feel a little distressed as she said, "Mom, why are you hiding in the room and eating bread by yourself? Why didn't you go to the dining room for breakfast?" i Most of the direct members of the royal family in Northern Europe lived inside the palace. Most of the people there did not cook, and the royal family had their own dedicated dining room to specifically serve the members of the royal family.
Helena's mother smiled wryly and said, "I'm a widow without a husband, and I am scorned everywhere I go here. I would rather stay in my room by myself and try not to have anything to do with them." After saying that, she could not help but ask, "Helena, how has your body been feeling lately?" Helena hesitated for a moment before she smiled faintly and said, "I'm doing pretty well. You don't have to worry about me." After saying that, Helena struggled for a moment, and she could not hold it back anymore. So, she said, "By the way, mom, I saw Felix's cousin brother today. He seems to be able to tell at first glance that I'm unwell." "Seriously?" Helena's mother instantly tensed up, and she blurted out, "If the Wade family finds out that you're seriously ill, they will definitely want to withdraw from the marriage alliance, right?" 1 As she said that, her eyes suddenly flushed red, and she could not stop her tears from flowing down as she choked up and said, "Helena, I really do not want you to return to this place anymore. If you cback here, they will only think of even more ways to squeeze your value and life by all means..." Helena hurriedly comforted her, "Mom, you don't have to worry too much. That cousin brother of Felix does not really get along well with Felix or even the rest of the Wade family members. So, I guess that he will not tell anyone else about it." 1 Helena's mother heaved a sigh of
relief and said seriously, "That's great, then... really hope that you will be able to live well in Oskia You will be separated by the royal family by y the thousands of kilometers, and you will finally be able to live more freely after getting rid of their control over you." Helena also could not help but choke up a little as she nodded repeatedly. "Mom, you have to take care of your health too. Don't worry about me." "Okay..." Helena's mother nodded.
After that, she remembered something and said, "By the way, your grandmother's health has not been too good recently and so your uncle said that both he and your. cousin sister will have to stay close to her side to take care of her. Therefore, they will not be able to go to Oskia to attend Felix's and your engagement ceremony. They will send your grandmother's butler, Mr. Wilkins, to represent the royal family." 2
Helena laughed bitterly and said, "I just agreed to the marriage alliance with the Wade family and now, they cannot even be bothered to cand attend the engagement ceremony? Aren't they being too snobbish?" 5 X
