Chapter: 965
“The poison is gradually fading.”
“Are you sure?”
“It’s not completely gone, but if the treatment continues like this, sooner or later the toxicity will disappear beyond recognition.”
Astelle was so happy that she was about to cry.
“Your Majesty, this is good news.”
Astelle was so moved that her tears welled up. Kaizen was rather embarrassed and calmed her down.
“It’s all thanks to Miss Gretel and you. I’d like to give Miss Gretel something. Tell me what you want.”
“Tha- thank you, Your Majesty. That…… then, I will think about it a little bit more.”
Astelle was deeply relieved.
“I’m more worried about you. You look tired every day. Your body is getting thinner day by day,” Kaizen said, wiping away her tears.
Astelle wiped away her tears and quickly changed the subject.
“I guess it’s because there’s a lot to do to prepare for the upcoming event.”
“Leave the preparations to Hannah.”
Astelle smiled and pushed him away slightly.
“It’s okay. Go back to the Imperial Palace now. You haven’t finished your work yet.”
Kaizen had a disapproving expression, but he couldn’t help it because Gretel was also by her side, so he eventually withdrew.
There was still deep affection in his eyes as he looked at Astelle.
“I’ll be back in the evening.”
“Yes, I will be waiting for you.”
After sending him away, Astelle approached Gretel, who was packing her things.
“One moment, Gretel. I have a favor to ask of you.”
“Yes? What is it?”
Astelle quietly told her about her situation.
Gretel replied, “Don’t worry. I happen to have the medicine for that. Let me examine you.”
Astelle wondered why Gretel brought that medicine.
