"I just lost my child, I don't need rest!" Lilian wailed. The baby was her gateway to Rolando's undying love and loyalty, but now that it was gone, she knew that he would not pay attention to her anymore. She saw all her hopes and dreams crumble before her very eyes.

"Lady Lilian, please don't act this way. His Majesty is not heartless. I'm sure that he is now on his way to come see you..." Miguel said.
