“I don’t want to be an enemy of my father. Even if I take over the title, I will follow my father’s will in all matters of the family. As long……”

Fritz continued firmly, “As long as it doesn’t harm Astelle and the Crown Prince.”

“How can I harm the Empress and the Crown Prince?”

The Duke, who had been listening quietly, replied in annoyance as if Fritz’s words made no sense.

He let out a long sigh and continued, “As you said, I’m disappointed in you, but it can’t be helped. I think it would be better for me to do this too, so I’m just keeping quiet.”

There was a hint of resignation in his voice.

He seemed to accept and understand the situation.

“The harvest festival will begin shortly. I want to attend the event with you,” said Fritz.

There was no way he didn’t understand that his son wanted reconciliation.

“Alright.”

Fritz then went out in relief.

The Duke of Reston was lost in thought as he stared at his son’s back.

He was contemplating what to do with his family after the successful poisoning plot.

Should I force Fritz to marry and have children?

Or is it better for me to have a new son now?

After Viscount Bürgen’s niece made a fuss in the Empress Palace’s garden, she bumped into Vellian.

After experiencing a series of nerve-racking events, fatigue came rushing in.

She recalled the conversation she had with Kaizen in the forest.

Kaizen who apologized for the divorce in the past had a sorrowful expression on his face.

Even as she looked into his eyes full of deep guilt, she couldn’t answer properly.

We’ve managed to have a comfortable relationship while living together, but I don’t know why he’s suddenly bringing up the past.

It’s not a good memory to bring up again.
