"Her Majesty has passed away, Your Majesty!" Sevrin grabbed Edmund's hand and forced him to touch her face.
In a second, Primrose saw the shift in Edmund's expression.
[She … she feels as cold as ice. Is this room too cold for her?]
He turned toward the fireplace and muttered, "Why didn't the maids light the fire? My wife … she's freezing."
Sevrin took a deep breath, then said, "Lighting the fire would only make her body decay faster, Your Majesty." He continued gently, "Please, you have to listen. Her Majesty died from a serious illness. She—"
"She was sick?" Edmund interrupted. "Why didn't anyone tell me she was sick?"
Sevrin hesitated before replying, "The truth is … I only found out about it after she passed."
Back then, Primrose had made sure no one knew about her condition.
She didn't see the point because she truly believed no one cared about her.
Therefore, she chose to hide it.
