Most importantly, she still had not confirmed Davidâs identity. Judging from the Sangruil Sinnersâ
reappearance during this period, Gamora was sure they were planning to do something big.
If it was found that David was a spy the Sangruil Sinners sent to infiltrate the empire, Gamora was worried that Astrid would not be able to take this blow.
âSo what if Iâm the princess? As a princess, canât I dance when I am happy?â Astrid retorted in a small voice.
âI think David has already stolen your soul. If he wants to take you away, I think you will happily abandon your parents and brothers.â
âMother! How can you say that? Youâre my family, so how can I abandon you?â Astrid pouted and retorted.
âAstrid, Iâm going to ask you a question, and you have to answer me honestly.â âGo ahead, Iâll be honest.â
âIf I asked you to choose between David and your family, who would you choose?â
Gamora looked at Astrid and asked seriously.
âHuh?â
Astridâs mind went blank.
She would never have guessed that her mother would ask this question.
âWâWho will I choose?
âOne is my family, and the other is someone I like.
âI canât choose between them.â
Astrid did not want to answer this question because she did not have an answer.
She also did not want anyone around her to feel sad.
âMother, whatâs wrong with you? Why are you asking that?â
âDonât ask. Just answer me.â
âIâI donât want to answer this question,â Astrid rejected. âYouâ¦â Gamora glared at Astrid with her beautiful eyes. When she was about to get angry, she thought about it and decided to forget it. This matter was not conclusive yet, so it would be better not to tell Astrid. Although this possibility was small, what if David was not a Sangruil spy? âForget it. Letâs not talk about this. Is David arriving on Planet Royal. Is that why youâre so happy?â Gamora changed the subject and asked.
âYeah! Heâs arriving soon. He should be here in two or three days,â Astrid answered.
"Astrid, if heâs here, you must tell me at once, okay? Your father wants to see him, and we want to thank him for saving you. If not, we will look rude.â
âI got it, Mother.â âAlright, Iâll get going now. Behave.â âOkay!â Gamora turned to leave. Astrid looked pensive as she watched Gamora leave. She was not an idiot. Something must be wrong for her mother to ask this question.
However, Astrid did not know what was going on. âDoes David have a secret identity? âDoes he have a grudge against my family? âI donât think so. If not, why would he risk his life to save me?
âWhatever. Iâll stop thinking about this. âIâll only decide when he gets here. What Gamora said had dampened Astridâs initial passion. However, she was still happy that David was coming.
