Chapter: 546

“Yes, go ahead, I will be right there.”

Theor grabbed his maternal grandfather’s hand, turned around, and walked out of the banquet hall.

Kaizen looked at the three of them with lonely eyes.

After the wedding, Astelle finally took off her stuffy dress.

“How was it?”

Hannah helped her take off her dress and reported the information she had found so far.

“It is said that what the Marchioness prepared was a poison that melts over time.”

“That’s why she tried to hide it under the embroidery.”

If the guards failed to find poison during the inspection, the poison in the decoration would melt and stick to her skin as soon as she put on the dress.

Maybe that’s why the Marchioness used thick decorations that aren’t often used on dresses.

Because she needed a place to hide the poison.

“The Marchioness has worked hard. Hannah, if you weren’t careful, I wouldn’t have been able to avoid it. Thank you.”

Hannah smiled shyly at Astelle’s praise.

Astelle put on her bathrobe and entered the bath prepared by the maids.

Hot water with a fragrant scent is prepared in the bath made of clean light blue stones.

Fragrant red petals float on the water with a faint fragrance.

As soon as she got into the water, the tension she had felt until a moment ago disappeared and sleepiness overtook her.

‘The wedding is over.’

It feels like just yesterday that I divorced and left the Imperial Palace……

It was unbelievable that I was resting like this after the wedding was over again.

It’s a bitter reality, but it’s irreversible now.

I have to adapt and live with this reality.

When Astelle finished bathing, the maids applied lotion and perfume before her skin became dry.

She changed into a white muslin nightgown and went back to her bedroom.
