Chapter: 984

“You look happy too.”

Astelle smiled a little awkwardly.

“It’s been a long time since I’ve been spending a leisurely time like this.”

As she said, she was able to rest comfortably for the first time in a long time.

In the imperial palace, she was always tired of maintaining her dignity as an empress.

Even when she went on tour, she couldn’t rest as comfortably as she does now because she thought she had to look like an empress.

This is basically a resort, and there are only a handful of attendants and relatives, so the tension naturally eased.

Is this why people go on vacation?

The hot sunlight brightly illuminated the grass on the lakeside. Heat rose from the sun-kissed walls like a haze.

As she was walking slowly, Astelle suddenly felt her vision blur.

Suddenly, the surroundings shook as if an earthquake had occurred, and the world slowly tilted.

“Astelle!”

Kaizen’s scream was heard from the side.

It is said that the happiest days of a vacation are the first and second days.

The first day hasn’t even passed yet.

I don’t know why it’s already like this even though I haven’t even started the vacation, let alone enjoy it.

Astelle sat leaning against the bed and had such a thought.

“How could this happen!”

Next to her, Kaizen was angry at the doctor.

“I- I apologize, Your Majesty.”

The old doctor sweated profusely and bowed his head.

“Your Majesty, I am fine.”

Lying on the bed, Astelle reassured Kaizen.

“You almost fainted.”
