In the mother's case we see that the king at first Didn't actually hate her. And It's even hinted he might have actually liked her! But after the king's younger brother- who was just a child, died due to ML's grandfather( aka the mother's dad lol) having some hands in it, he started to hate the whole family including the mother.

What if, she mistook the king as her destiny. What if the 4th prince was the one in her dreams?
