Chapter: 413
The Marchioness smirked and muttered, “Dirty and shameless……”
Astelle walked over to her without saying a word.
The Marchioness was startled.
“Then I will ask you, Marchioness.”
Astelle asked bluntly, “No matter how many illegitimate children I have, what does it have to do with you?”
The Marchioness shouted in surprise, “How can the imperial princess say such vulgar words……”
“Is it a crime for me to have a child? I’ve been living alone since I got divorced, and I didn’t even cheat on my husband, so what’s the problem?”
In the Empire, it is not a crime to have an illegitimate child. If both were single, there was no problem at all.
However, this was always followed by rebuke and criticism from the people of the world.
Especially the woman who gave birth to an illegitimate child was ridiculed and looked down on for the rest of her life.
Astelle turned her back and met the dark red eyes looking at her.
She said, “It is wrong to falsify the child’s origin in the documents, and if you punish me, I will accept it, Your Majesty.”
After she said that, she warned the marchioness again.
“But I will not forgive you if you insult me and my son.”
The marchioness shut her mouth at Astelle’s threat.
She had nothing more to say because she had already revealed who the child’s birth mother was.
While everyone was shocked, there was a person standing with an unchanged expression.
Kaizen was looking at Astelle with calm eyes.
“I knew.”
Those present at this ball were shocked for the third time.
The deposed empress had given birth to and raised an illegitimate child, and the Emperor, knowing the fact, proposed to her.
“Lyndon, what are you doing?”
At Kaizen’s rebuke, Lyndon hurriedly beckoned to the knights.
The knights dragged the marchioness from the banquet hall.
The bewildered Marchioness turned to her husband, but he stood still like a stone statue.
