Chapter: 470

“Still, you’re going to get a divorce?”

“Yes, I want you to promise that you will divorce me at any time.”

In order to protect Theor’s position, Astelle had to maintain the position of empress in the imperial palace.

Still, Astelle wanted to hold the last key to finding freedom.

She would be able to endure the life of the imperial palace only if she had the key in her hand to untie the shackle.

But Kaizen did not understand her heart.

Instantly, sparks lit up in his red eyes.

Kaizen was more furious than when he heard about Theor’s birth.

Astelle intends to live as an empress for several years and leave after establishing Theor’s position.

“What are you going to do if I don’t promise you?”

Light green eyes of unknown depth looked at him again.

“If you do not comply with the conditions, I will refuse the marriage proposal.”

“Are you going to leave Theor in the imperial palace?”

Kaizen thought Astelle couldn’t do that.

But Astelle answered firmly,

“If you don’t comply with my conditions, it can’t be helped.”

Kaizen clenched his fists tightly.

Her attitude that pushed him away made him suffocate.

But all of this was caused by himself.

It would not have happened if he hadn’t abandoned Astelle six years ago.

He knew it was all his own fault.

However, Kaizen did not want to let Astelle go.

Astelle might give up on the two of them and leave, but Kaizen couldn’t give up on Astelle.

He closed his eyes tightly.

“……okay. I promise.”
