Carmella’s lips trembled slightly. She could not say anything to meet Martin’s gaze, feeling guilty.
“It’s… nothing.” Carmella forced a chortle. “Your Majesty, the trial’s been going on for too long. You must be tired.
Let me help you get back to rest first…”
“I want to hear the truth!” Martin roared, “Who were you looking for?”
Carmella froze and turned her gaze to Joy.
“What’s going on here?” She gritted each word. “Joy, what are you trying to do?”
Joy replied indifferently, “Your Majesty, I could only find these two people based on the clues you gave me.”
“You…”
A strange smile crossed Joy’s lips. “Your Majesty, you told me that one of them is a drug addict and the other’s

again and again!
“How did the child end up in the hands of such people!?” Martin’s voice was low and angry.
“Carmella, say something!” Martin pushed her violently, and she almost fell out of the audience seat.
Carmella’s mind went blank, and Martin’s angry gaze felt like a sharp knife stabbing deep into her heart.
“Martin, listen—”

Aurelia looked bewildered, not understanding what they were talking about.
