Chapter: 719

Kaizen smiled and ruffled Theor’s hair.

“Yeah, that’s a relief.”

Astelle only looked at the two of them and said nothing.

As soon as the carriage passed through the gates of the Imperial Palace, it headed for the Empress Palace.

As soon as she arrived, Astelle changed her clothes, bathed Theor, and put him to bed.

Upon arrival, Kaizen immediately headed for his office.

He finished reporting today’s incident to his men and went to the Empress Palace late at night.

It was after midnight when the two met again.

“Your Majesty.”

Astelle, who was sitting by the window, got up and greeted him.

He didn’t even have time to change clothes, so Kaizen was in the same outfit as before.

“Where’s Theor?”

“He fell asleep a while ago.”

It was late, so the palace was quiet.

The empress’ bedroom in the center of the palace was also enveloped in silence.

“You must be tired, too. Get some rest.”

Astelle didn’t answer and was looking at him worriedly.

Kaizen knew what Astelle was thinking about.

He himself had already passed down orders to his men in the office because of today’s incident.
