Chapter: 661
The emperor’s words were no different from saying that he would destroy the Croychen family at this point. Florin turned to the officials for help.
The officials exchanged bewildered glances, but no one dared to step forward and help her.
Kaizen declared with a firm voice.
“I will not spare anyone who dares to try to harm the empress and prince.”

“Are you okay?”
After the commotion died down, Kaizen sent the officials out.
Astelle also took the opportunity to go out, but Kaizen grabbed her.
Astelle replied in a nonchalant way, “I am fine, Your Majesty.”
Why not?
Astelle herself did not do much.
This all happened because of Florin’s stupidity.
“I’m sorry this keeps happening.”
But Kaizen gave her a wistful look.
“This time, I will make sure to punish them and set an example.”
Astelle couldn’t tell how anguish the look in his eyes was. In fact, it was Blynn, not Theor, that Florin was targeting.
Originally, she was going to confess after this.
Astelle said, avoiding his gaze.
“Your Majesty, I have promised Miss Naen’s safety in lieu of the confession she made.”
“I would like to ask you to allow me to continue taking care of Miss Naen.”
It was the reward that Astelle had promised Naen for the price of confession.
Astelle begged Kaizen earnestly.
Kaizen didn’t like it very much but eventually accepted it.
“Okay. Do as you please.”
“Your Majesty, what are you going to do with the Croychens?”
