Regardless of Yelna's gloomy reaction at this time, William decided to walk over and hug his mother-in-law. As Yelna's son-in-law, William would not let his only mother-in-law feel guilty while she was staying in his residence.
Yelna's status in the palace was no different from that of the other concubines. This was also the reason why the maids in the palace always behaved respectfully when dealing with Yelna. The maids who worked in the palace considered Yelna's status to be one of William's women.
The caring attitude that William showed towards Yelna after they returned from the battlefield showed how much William cared about his mother-in-law. Therefore, Yelna could always ask for what she wanted while staying in the palace.
However, there was not a single man standing guard inside the castle. For Yelna, who had lost her husband, being in the palace without having to face any man other than William was the thing that could calm her mind the most.
