Her words fell like a stone.
The crowd instantly stirred.
Indeed—this was the question no one had answered.
Why had Henry personally taken Scarlett to Prince Kael's residence in the first place?
Curious gazes immediately turned toward Henry.
For a split second, his expression stiffened.
He had prepared countless excuses for Scarlett's absence from the royal hunt, but he hadn't expected Zora to counterattack so directly.
The truth was, he himself had never fully explained that visit.
But now that the matter had already spread and could no longer be completely concealed, there was no turning back.
Straightening his posture, Henry let out a cold snort.
"Your Majesty," he said firmly, "no matter the reason, Prince Kael and his consort wounded my daughter. That is an undeniable fact."
In his heart, he was confident.
In terms of status, Prince Kael and Zora could not compare to him.
