Chapter: 906
“Your Majesty the Emperor.”
An urgent knock was heard.
When the servant opened the door, Lyndon was standing by the door.
“Your Majesty, something has happened with the Duke.”
Hearing that, the warm atmosphere quickly cooled down.
“Which duke?”
Seibel turned to Astelle briefly before answering Kaizen’s question.
“The former duke in the abandoned palace.”
A heavy silence enveloped the room. The two remained silent with dark faces.
Kaizen turned to Astelle with worried eyes. Astelle was still sitting quietly with an expressionless cold face.
For the past few days, Astelle has deliberately erased her father’s work from her mind. As time passed, she knew that her father would die naturally.
Every time she thought of her father’s death, she felt a sense of relief and complex emotions, so she tried not to think about it as much as possible.
“What happened?”
“The duke suddenly collapsed.”
Lyndon answered Kaizen’s question in a cautious voice.
“Why did a normal person suddenly collapse?”
“He hasn’t been feeling well for a few days… … I think his condition has worsened from living in an abandoned palace.”
Lyndon replied so, but in a less confident tone.
He tried not to look at Astelle as much as possible.
However, Astelle was rather relieved to hear Lyndon’s answer.
She thought her imprisoned father had caused some trouble.
I’m glad it wasn’t.
On the one hand, she felt a little bitter about the current situation where she was relieved that her biological father was sick.
‘Is he really sick?’
To be honest, Astelle doesn’t really believe it. She wonders if her father is playing a trick because Astelle refused to meet him.
