Chapter: 1015

Oh, my.

She was about to run away to avoid the embarrassing scene, but she heard a familiar voice from behind.

“Your Majesty the Empress?”

Astelle stopped her steps and turned around again.

“Gretel?”

A woman wearing a mask is staring at her.

It’s Gretel, no doubt. And the person in front of her…….

“Brother Fritz?”

Astelle involuntarily raised her voice.

Astelle couldn’t believe what she was seeing now.

A man and a woman were hugging each other in a small pavilion.

The masked man is clearly her brother, Fritz, and the woman with him is Gretel.

Astelle said nothing but looked at the two. She was so shocked that her head didn’t work properly.

‘Why are Fritz and Gretel……?’

When did these two become like that? Could it be that it happened spontaneously because of today’s ball?

In that brief moment, all sorts of thoughts came to mind.

The two of them just stared blankly at Astelle and Kaizen, embarrassed.

There was a moment of heavy silence between the four of them. It was a silence of shock and astonishment, but only one wasn’t too surprised.

It was Kaizen.

He was the first to open his mouth. “We’d better go back now.”

Astelle immediately came to her senses and understood the situation as soon as she heard his calm voice.

At first, she was shocked enough to faint, but now that she came to her senses, she realized that she had interrupted her brother’s tryst.

Astelle hastily hid her puzzled expression.

Likewise, Gretel, who came to her senses, hurried away from Fritz.

As Fritz let go of Gretel’s hand, Astelle clearly saw the bitter emotion in her brother’s light green eyes.
