Chapter 41

“Lady Abby, do you want to go to the garden for a walk later?” Dax, the Royal Gamma, asked. happily, just short of skipping into the bedroom as he bounced toward Abby who just finished eating her first meal of the day.

The only person who Abby responded to positively was Dax. Of course, other than Alyssa ami Reyna.

While Nadia couldn’t visit her too often as she had many other things to deal with since she was the royal healer of the palace. She couldn’t be here everyday when Abby had almost recovered, at least, physically.

And Dax took the responsibility of cheering Abby up along with Alyssa and Reyna.

“The back garden is so beautiful today” Reyna supplied from the side as she gave Alyssa a look. “It was like a sea of golden hues with all those yellow flowers in full bloom.”

Reyna was standing behind Abby, so she didn’t notice how the maid winked at her fellow maid discreetly.

“Yes, my lady, it would be a perfect day to go for a picnic and bask in the morning sun,” Alyssa joined them as she said whatever that could back up Reyna’s words.

Dax geared up his goofiness when Alyssa and Reyna took his hint and cooperated with him. “Believe me, you don’t want to miss out on this. The view was spectacular. I wanted to stay there all day, but then I remembered you like those flowers as well. So here I am,” Dax chirped away with animated hands as he smiled broadly.

This had become their daily routine in the past few days.

One of the three would raise a topic and all three of them would talk about it excitedly, just to make Abby feel interested in something that would compel her to finally step out of this room

And their efforts weren’t completely in vain as Abby slowly started to invest in their conversations a little. Before she didn’t respond no matter what, but somewhere in the middle of the royal gamma bantering with the maids, they noticed her smiling.

Now, she was even engaging in conversations with them. It was a good thing indeed. But it was not enough.

Especially when they thought about the King. Abby still avoided talking about him. She would sink deeper into her own thoughts whenever they tried to plead on behalf of Micah.

Dax couldn’t sit still when he saw how miserable the King had been during this period of time. They had never seen him like this. He looked dispirited with each day that passed.

Now, they were desperate as it had been three weeks since Abby dared to step out of this room. while the King would not step inside, just to give her some space. He would always wait outside, standing beside the door all night. And it was heart wrenching to say the least.

They understood the importance of this space Micah was giving to her, but, if no one did anything.

“Yes, my lady, the sun was not too bright today,” Alyssa said, sounding a bit more than enthusiastic. However, Abby didn’t say anything as if she didn’t listen to what they all three said.

When she didn’t respond to them after a few more minutes of persuasion, they could only give up.

Dax shared a look with the two maids as he bade them goodbye. “The King is waiting for me)‘ll take

my leave now,” he said to them before sliding his gaze once again toward Abby, who didn’t seem to catch his words.

Alyssa and Reyna could only nod at him, as if it was just another failed attempt of forcing Abby from crossing the door and leave these four walls even for a couple of minutes.
