Chapter: 583

Kaizen managed to hold back his anger.

“Your Majesty.”

Astelle glanced back at the tightly closed door.

This is the emperor’s palace. There are ministers, maids, and guard knights outside the door.

In a place like this, the emperor and empress could not argue while raising their voices. Astelle quickly bowed her head.

She said, “Your Majesty must be busy with government affairs, so I will return to the empress’ palace. See you in the evening……”

If you want to fight, let’s do it in the empress’ palace this evening. That was what Astelle meant.

But Kaizen had no intention of putting up with it even for an hour.

Astelle turned around and was about to go outside, but Kaizen came closer and grabbed her wrist.

“If we are in a contractual relationship, shouldn’t we keep trust in each other? If something like this happens, you have to tell me first.”

“I told you last time, I can’t tell you until I have solid evidence.”

I didn’t know if the secret letter was actually in Florin’s hands or where it was hidden, so I couldn’t tell Kaizen.

Astelle slowly pulled her wrist caught by Kaizen. He looked at her with disappointed eyes and smiled bitterly.

“So did you call your father to discuss it? Did you do it because you thought your father would believe you even without evidence?”

“I was just trying to ask the person involved.”

It was a secret letter written by my father, so naturally, I had no choice but to call my father and ask him.

Astelle didn’t understand why she was having this pointless conversation with Kaizen.

Was this something worth arguing about while shouting in the imperial palace?

At Astelle’s calm attitude, Kaizen looked at her in disbelief.

“So you are saying that your father is more trustworthy than me. You must be such a dutiful daughter that you trusted your father who kicked you out of the family and abandoned you.”

By this time, Astelle had run out of patience as well.

“Aren’t you the same?”

“What?”

“Didn’t you do the same as my father did, Your Majesty?”

“……!”
