Chapter: 845

Even after she put down the empty medicine bowl, Gretel remained unsure.

“I don’t know how effective it will be.”

In the end, she had no choice but to wait.

Astelle watched Kaizen all night from the bedside.

When Kaizen wakes up, Astelle herself may be in danger. But that doesn’t matter at the moment. Astelle always hoped that Kaizen would survive.

How much time has passed? When the unsteadily shaking candle flame had melted more than half of the candle, Gretel hurriedly called Astelle.

“Astelle!”

Kaizen, who was lying motionless, slowly began to show changes.

Florin took a light bite of the appetizer and just took a sip of water.

The next seafood dish looks really good, but she’s not in the mood to taste it.

Next to Florin is her father, the Marquis of Croychen, and on the other side is the empress’ father, the Duke of Reston.

“What a wonderful dinner, Duke.”

The two were eating in a friendly atmosphere.

An hour ago, the Marquis Croychen was invited by the Duke of Reston to his mansion. He took his daughters Florin and Marianne with him too.

Florin couldn’t understand why her father brought her here. Even brought Marianne, not just herself.

Shouldn’t he rather bring his wife, the Marchioness, to a place like this?

Of course, the Marchioness has a history of being exiled for trying to kill the Empress, the Duke of Reston’s daughter, so it’s a bit odd that she comes with him but still……

The Marquis Croychen thanked the Duke politely.

“Thank you so much for inviting us. You brought me back to the capital… … .”

“Well, it’s not even forbidden to return to the capital, is it?”

It is true that the exiles cannot return to their original capital. But the Duke of Reston spoke as if he didn’t know about it.

“That’s right… … .”

Florin was irritated by her father’s servile attitude. She could understand why her father was subservient to such a man.

Under the current emperor, the Croychen family has little chance of regaining their former influence.
