Chapter: 307

She would be leaving again in just two days, so there was no need to unpack everything.

Astelle only organized what she needed to use for the next two days and put the rest in the closet.

She spotted Theor playing in the garden outside the window.

He went out with the Marquis and Blynn.

When Astelle saw Theor’s bright face, she suddenly thought of Kaizen.

She hasn’t had a proper conversation with him since the last day at Dentsu Castle.

Even if she had a chance to meet him, he always seemed to be busy.

‘I’m glad. If we had met often, it would have been uncomfortable for both of us.’

Astelle decided to go to the temple the next day.

There, she would meet Kaizen and finish the Empress Dowager’s will, and there would be no more meetings.

‘Should I go back to the mansion or find a place to escape?’

Going to the mansion would prevent Theor’s identity from being revealed.

What would happen to the assassination case?

You’d never know what was going to happen.

If the truth about the assassination was revealed, Astelle wouldn’t be safe.

‘Shall I find a place to escape? However, if I were to suddenly hide myself, I might end up hurting my grandfather and Theor.’

Astelle put the luggage together while thinking about complicated things.

After packing up, she went downstairs to join Theor and her grandfather.

As she passed the living room, a maid approached her.

“Lady, a guest has arrived.”

“A guest?”

Astelle, who had unintentionally turned to the drawing-room, noticed the man standing by the door and instantly stiffened.

“Ah……”

Facing the man, she was speechless for a moment.

Tall stature and a neat and handsome face.
