Arthur walked inside hastily, staring at his mother with sharp eyes.
Without wasting a single second, he instantly spoke.
"It's Alex Whiteheart... Alex Whiteheart was the one who killed me..."
The Fifth Wing turned back, staring at Arthur with a curious gaze.
"So, you finally decided to say it, huh?" the queen said, her voice carrying a certain mischievous ring to it.
"Ever since you woke up, Arthur, I knew there was something else you weren't saying."
Arthur clenched his fists as he stared at his mother.
The queen stared at the Fifth Wing before speaking:
"Excuse us. I'll call you later."
The Fifth Wing bowed his head before walking out.
The queen's eyes followed his figure out of the room before she quickly looked at Arthur again.
"You said it was a vampire that killed you. Why did you lie?"
"Alex was my friend," Arthur quickly replied, as if he was already expecting the question.
The queen was silent for a few seconds before she sighed.
