Chapter: 597

“Okay. Take care of her.”

Astelle said she would punish Naen herself, but in fact, she had no intention of doing so.

‘I think she’s treated badly by her family.’

So she was pushed out of the mansion instead of Florin.

The little girl was just a scapegoat.

Punishing her would only make Astelle the object of reproach for being vicious.

Rather, it was better to let her stay in the empress’ palace and watch over her.

Of course, it wasn’t just out of sympathy.

If Florin finds out that Naen is here, she will try to use her to do something again.

Her younger sister is in the empress’ palace, and she won’t be able to sit still, even if she’s not worried.

Hannah also got the point and nodded her head.

“I’ll tell the maid to keep an eye on her.”

Astelle put down the document she was reading.

She was tired from going through a lot today.

Hannah brought her tea with a worried look on her face.

“Lady Astelle, please rest early today.”

“……yes.”

Astelle stood up. Before she knew it, it was already evening.

“Where is Theor?”

“The Prince is in the study with His Majesty.”

“……”

Kaizen is here already.

He must have had a lot of work to do. But he’s already here?

Kaizen would normally come here, and he would wait and look after Theor until Astelle finished her work.

But today, it was unlikely that he would see Astelle.
