Chapter: 343

Astelle wondered if he was spying on her.

After all, she was living in the mansion the emperor gave her, and she thought it would be known through the mouths of the servants.

On the other hand, Astelle thought that Kaizen was not monitoring her, but rather her father, the Duke of Reston.

‘How is the investigation of the assassination going on?’

It must have been her father.

What happens when the truth is revealed?

Not only her father, but Fritz also couldn’t be safe.

Astelle herself could not be safe.

Astelle answered as she hid her growing anxiety,

“Yes, I met my father.”

“What did your father say?”

“We didn’t talk much. It was just about housework.”

Kaizen frowned upon hearing Astelle’s vague answer.

When he heard that the Duke of Reston had come to see Astelle, he was not in a good mood.

A few months ago, when Kaizen inquired about Astelle’s whereabouts, Duke Reston said with tears in his eyes,

“My poor daughter left the mansion and disappeared as soon as the divorce trial was over. How heartbroken I am that the daughter I wholeheartedly raised has left the capital and disappeared……”

It was the image of a poor father who was heartbroken over the loss of his daughter, but he was blaming Kaizen while pretending to be sad.

“I couldn’t find her. Didn’t you look for her?”

At Kaizen’s question, the duke shed tears again and pretended to be pitiful.

“I tried to find her, but I couldn’t no matter how much I searched…… I spent six years in agony because my poor daughter might have made an extreme choice.”

Dramatically, at that moment, there was a report that Astelle’s whereabouts had been found.

“Your daughter is in your father-in-law’s mansion.”

Kaizen laughed coldly as he read Astelle’s whereabouts in the note given by one of the knights.

“Did you not know where your daughter is or where your father-in-law lives?”
