Chapter: 95

Astelle pulled out a handkerchief and wiped her tears.

“Grandfather has been away from home for so long…… you weren’t feeling well even at the usual time……”

“That…… don’t worry too much, I don’t think his condition is too bad.”

Vellian tried to comfort her in his own way, but Astelle held the handkerchief back to her eyes with a sad face.

The tip of her hand holding the handkerchief trembled.

“You already old, too…… because of me…… after suffering in a remote place……”

Kaizen looked at Astelle and bit his lip.

He later became a little regretful for his own actions.

‘I should have sent someone to tell him the situation and ask for his help.’

In that case, Astelle wouldn’t have run away knowing the emperor was looking for her.

He thought it would be easier if he sent an attendant to explain the situation and asked Astelle to come over.

But he sent knights and soldiers without notice, causing Astelle and the old marquis to misunderstand and run away.

Thanks to this, Astelle had to run away for two months with a five-years-old child.

The old marquis even got a little sick from the aftereffects.

He thought he had done something wrong.

He was confused when saw Astelle, who was crying and mourning like that unlike usual.

Kaizen rarely regrets his actions.

And Astelle noticed that he was regretting his actions.

“Your Majesty, may I ask you a favor?”

Astelle asked, looking up at the emperor with tearful eyes.

She was really lucky this time, but she didn’t think she would have this kind of luck again next time.

She had to hide the child out of sight of this man as soon as possible.

Astelle planned to go to Dentsu Castle, where her maternal grandfather is, to get out of Kaizen’s sight.

And then she has to send her grandfather and Theor back home first.

He wouldn’t refuse if she begged.
