Despite his frailty, the king sat up and kicked Ewan, his voice thundering. "Punish her? You dare suggest I punish my granddaughter? The granddaughter I've spent years searching for? You're the one who needs discipline for overstepping your bounds!" Though the kick wasn't strong, the king's words hit like a hammer. Ewan stumbled back, disbelief written all over his face.
"Granddaughter?" Ewan stammered. "But the royal family's granddaughter went missing years ago! This can't be!" "Your Majesty... are you sure? Could you be mistaken?" Ewan dared to ask.
The Azure Sea King's face darkened. Picking up a pillow, the king threw it at Ewan. "Mistaken? Do you think I wouldn't recognize my own flesh and blood? You're the one who's confused!" The king regretted it deeply.

Tears welled up in the king's eyes as he turned back to Tiffany. His voice trembled with emotion. “Grandpa has let you down.” Memories of the night Tiffany disappeared flooded his mind, the chaos, betrayal, and blood on the carpet. He had been too busy managing the crisis to protect her. By the the realized traitors had taken her, it was too late.
For thirteen years, he had lived with the guilt of failing her. He had lost not just his son and daughter-in-law that night but also the only granddaughter he had left.
Now, she was here.
Tiffany's heart ached at the sight of the king's tears. She grabbed a tissue and gently wiped them away, patting his back. "It's okay. Please don't cry. You've just woken up. You need to rest. Getting emotional isn't good for you." She paused, her voice softening. "And Grandpa, I've never blamed you." Her words trailed off as she looked down, hiding the guilt in her eyes. She felt like she'd failed him too by taking so long to find her way back.
The Azure Sea King shook his head and smiled through his tears, his expression filled with love. "It's not your fault, my child. My little princess has grown up and into such a fine young lady." His voice carried both pride and sadness. Thirteen years of lost tcould never be recovered, but he was grateful she was here now.
"It's good that you've cback," the king said warmly.
Suddenly, a cough escaped him, and Jeremy rushed to offer a glass of water. But Richard, always a step ahead, handed one over first.

The Azure Sea King was visibly stunned by the revelation, his expression momentarily frozen.
His gaze shifted to Tiffany, seeking to determine if she had been coerced.
Tiffany's cheeks were slightly flushed, and though shy, she didn't avoid his probing look. Instead, she nodded faintly.
A certain jealous man wasn't easily appeased, and Tiffany knew that failing to act now might lead to endless torment later. Besides, she had already chosen Richard in her heart, and her words were genuine. The Azure Sea King's initial shock melted into a warm smile. He chuckled, nodding. "Alright, alright! If my little princess is happy, then so am I!" Looking at the love and contentment in Tiffany's eyes, he knew this wasn't a rushed decision. She had chosen someone who made her truly happy.
And that was all he could ever want for his beloved granddaughter.
