Chapter: 1040

A lot of realistic problems came to mind, but on the other hand, deep down she didn’t want to spoil this atmosphere.

Gretel just wanted to savor this moment slowly.

Maybe it will be the most beautiful memory in her life.

Gretel leaned her face on Fritz’s shoulder with that thought.

It was near dawn when the two returned to the castle.

It makes no sense to enter the gate at this hour in wet clothes.

Rumors would circulate if they forced themselves to enter like this.

While Gretel was worried about that, Fritz quickly walked to the side of the castle without any thought.

“Where are you going?”

“We can go this way.”

The place he walked to was a small wooden door next to the castle wall.

In front of him, tense soldiers and knights were waiting.

Where is this?

“Duke.”

A soldier bowed his head and opened the door without asking anything.

After passing through the door, a small staircase came out.

“Well…….”

“This is the staircase leading to the west tower. There is a door in the middle that leads to the balcony. The room next door is my bedroom.”

Maybe it’s because it’s the imperial family’s detached palace, so it’s subtly like a maze.

After going up for a while and passing through another small wooden door, the door to the balcony could be seen.

It looks like a secret passageway.

As they entered outside, the glass door on the balcony leading to the break room could be seen.

Gretel was about to ask Fritz to put her down, but a familiar voice came from inside the room.

“Fritz?”
