Chapter: 1007

***

After staying at the summer palace for a few days, Astelle regained her strength.

I don’t know if it’s because of the leisurely life in the summer palace, or because of the natural stabilization over time.

After about ten days, there were no more dizziness and her appetite improved. Astelle was actually eating much better than before she was pregnant.

After a short vacation, the party started preparing to return to the imperial palace as scheduled.

Kaizen seemed like he wanted to stay a few more days, but Astelle decided to head back after only spending the planned few days.

Kaizen had said several times that she could cancel the ball, but Astelle ignored his words each time.

Surprisingly, Theor didn’t feel much regret.

“Because my mom is not sick anymore.”

Theor readily agreed to return to the imperial palace.

“I’ll return to the imperial palace and hand out pebbles to others.”

Saying so, he filled a small box with pretty pebbles of unusual colors. It seems to be a souvenir in its own way.

Even Theor agreed to go back, so Kaizen could no longer insist on extending the vacation.

The emperor, the father, couldn’t insist on playing more when his young son said he would return to the palace.

He had to go anyway.

Is it because Kaizen is the emperor that he can play as he pleases? But Fritz and Seibel seemed stumped at the idea of extending the vacation.

“Then I guess I’ll have to go back first. I have a lot of work to do.”

Come to think of it, these two had put off their work and followed them on vacation.

I couldn’t let them go first because I wanted to rest a little longer.

In the end, the party returned to the imperial palace according to the schedule as Astelle insisted.

Even after returning to the palace, every day passed smoothly.

Astelle was no longer struggling; her appetite is better than before, and her dizziness is gone.

But another problem arose.

“I don’t have morning sickness at all.”
