Chapter: 156

Theor replied quickly to those words, “Aunt Astelle doesn’t sick anymore, Grandpa.”

“Don’t worry. It healed quickly in the early stages and it was all healed.”

Astelle tells the story at the hunting lodge and her recovery from the eastern fever.

After hearing Astelle’s explanation, the Marquis wrapped around Astelle’s hands with a sad expression.

“Poorly…… it must have been difficult in an unfamiliar place with the little one.”

Astelle smiled at the familiar warmth.

Theor said, lifting his head in the arms of his grandfather, “Grandpa, I have a puppy!”

“A puppy? Where did you bring it from?”

“It is a gift from His Majesty.”

The Marquis turned his dismayed glance to Astelle.

Astelle quickly explained, “Theor went to the hunting lodge and His Majesty gave him one as a gift.”

First of all, she said so briefly.

I didn’t have enough time to explain the long backstage of the hunting lodge, and I didn’t even want to talk about it in front of Theor.

The Marquis had understood what Astelle’s meant and patted Theor’s head again.

“If you got it from the hunting lodge, it would be a hunting dog. Our Theor is too young to learn to hunt.”

“I hate hunting, the bear is dead.”

Astelle smiled slightly and looked at the two.

When she met her grandfather, a feeling of relief came.

Her whole body was relieved of tension.

It wasn’t safe yet, but just getting here was half of it. She was relieved.

“I heard about the former empress’ will, and that man seems to be taking good care of the two of you.”

The Marquis gave Theor a slightly complicated look.

Kaizen’s grandmother, the former empress dowager lost her parents at a young age and was taken to the imperial palace and became an empress.

She was the heiress of the wide southern estate.

Kaizen’s grandfather, Emperor Gilbert locked up the young empress in the imperial palace in order to prevent his wife to reclaim her estate at a later date, preventing her from learning properly.
