Chapter: 385

Florin lightly stroked Theor’s head, then she turned to Astelle.

Doll-like cute features and a bright smile like a flower blooming looked at Astelle.

“Your nephew looks a lot like you, Lady Astelle.”

***

Astelle looked at Florin’s cute face and had a gut feeling.

This young girl knows who Theor’s birth mother is.

‘How did you know?’

You didn’t notice because of the Lintail fruit, did you?

Kaizen was the only one who doubted Theor’s birth mother.

Did the information leak from there?

If Kaizen knew about Theor’s birth mother, the subordinates close to him would also know. The first one that came to mind was Vellian.

‘Could he have told Florin?’

I don’t think so, but I don’t know, though. Maybe it came from someone else’s mouth.

Several assumptions came to mind, but there was nothing I could be sure of.

Astelle, hiding her confused mind, smiled softly.

“I heard a lot of people say that,” she said.

Astelle looked at Florin and responded with a calm smile,

“Since we are relatives, we have no choice but to look alike, right? They say blood is thicker than water.”

“Is that so?”

Florin added, “I don’t know because I don’t have children yet.”

“……”

Astelle, who was hiding her tension, realized one more thing.

Fortunately, even the clever Florin didn’t know who the child’s father was.

‘If she had known that Theor was the prince, she would have tried to get rid of him somehow without making fun of me in this way.’

A smile naturally leaked out of a deep sense of relief.
