Chapter: 442

I wanted to make you feel comfortable.

But it became like locking you up here and making you suffer.

Still, Kaizen could not let Astelle go.

He has already ordered the preparation for the wedding in the imperial palace.

No matter what happens, I will officially hold a wedding ceremony and bring her to the imperial palace.

“I have something to tell you.”

Kaizen was silent for a moment as if he was choosing his words.

Even though he swore firmly that he would never let Astelle go, he couldn’t say anything when he saw her tired face.

If I tell her about this, she will be shocked.

“Your Majesty? What’s wrong?”

Kaizen approached Astelle with a sad face.

“This is about the Marquis and Theor.”

Astelle’s face turned pale in an instant.

‘Why did you return?’

I thought he had left, but Kaizen returned to the study.

Astelle, who was looking out the window, found Kaizen and got up from her seat.

Until then, Astelle thought he was going to continue the previous conversation.

After a long time, the uncomfortable silence was broken by Lyndon.

“What’s going on?”

Kaizen seemed a little hesitant.

Astelle realized that something bad had happened.

“I think there was an attack before my knights arrived. The Marquis was injured.”

“An attack?”

Something I was worried about was happening.
