Edmund examined his neck. Feeling the soreness in various spots, he looked at Clea. "My neck hurts." "Isn't it better than your lips?" "Ha, you'll never say you won't bite, will you?" Looking at the marks on Edmund's neck, Clea smiled as if pleased. "I like these marks." The traces she had left seemed to announce who he belonged to. Clea quietly caressed Edmund's neck. Edmund briefly took her hand and brought it to his…-

Chapter 26: Why Are You Here?
Grit exercised maximum patience. He felt like shouting right away, grabbing Clea's wrist and forcibly dragging her away. But unfortunately, this was the imperial palace. It was a place where every single action could have unpredictable consequences. He lowered his voice as much as possible while filling it with intimidation. Meanwhile, Clea had to try her best to suppress her laughter as she looked at them. The intimidation they had shown until…-

"Have you all heard the news?" "You mean that news?" "I heard Her Majesty the Empress rushed back to the imperial palace because of that rumor." "Oh my, is that true?" "......" Aria found the current topic of conversation very uncomfortable. She had already experienced an unpleasant incident recently. All along, she believed without a doubt that she would marry Edmund. There had been no one beside Edmund except her. She…

Chapter 34. It’s Gone Too Far
"Sigh." Edmund sat in his office, pondering. How he could find out what illness she suffered from. And how he could hear about it directly from her. Thinking about it, the Clea he had seen until now was utterly miserable. Though her expressions had certainly become more varied since meeting him, before that, she had only shown anger, sadness, and emptiness. And at the end, she had become completely expressionless, like someone who had given up on…-

"So where is my daughter-in-law?" "Dear, shouldn't you greet me first after returning?" Odin looked at Elina, who had just returned and hadn't even changed her clothes. Despite her age, she was still beautiful. Even looking at Odin's gentle smile, Elina's expression remained dissatisfied. "That's not what's important right now." "It's the most important matter for you and me. If we're not careful, others might misunderstand our…

Chapter 32. Why
"So who did you say sent this?" Despite the sender being clearly written at the end of the letter, Elina asked Matilda. She asked who had sent the letter she was currently reading. To Elina's question, the head maid, Matilda, answered without a moment's hesitation. "It was sent by His Majesty the Emperor, who is in the capital." "So it really was sent by him." There was no need to confirm who had sent it in the first place. With the…-

Chapter 30. Loose Lips
"Father, the rumors were true." "You must have seen wrong." "No. I saw it clearly with my own two eyes! How could I mistake them kissing right in front of me!" "But it doesn't make sense. How could His Highness kiss the daughter of the Odoi family in front of you?" "Mother!" Aria had been suffering all day after returning home. Worried about Aria's condition, the Duke and Duchess inquired through the coachman about where she had…-

Chapter 29. Since When
"Since when?" Edmund was in a difficult position. He was properly caught in the bomb that Odin had dropped and left behind. He wanted to fan his heated face while turning his head away. But it was hard to move as if his body was frozen by the scent of the person right beside him. At the moment, neither Odin nor Oberon was present. Odin, who had dropped the bomb, had fled saying he would come back later. Oberon had followed, perhaps unable…-

Chapter 28. Eat This Too
'The gardener was the emperor? More importantly, new child?' Clea was very perplexed. She couldn't have imagined that the person she'd been interacting with all this time was actually the emperor of the Empire. She had thought there was something odd about his shabby appearance. But she never considered that his true identity might be the emperor. Moreover, that emperor was now calling her 'new child.' "Your Majesty, this is a family…-

Chapter 27. New Child?
"Do you truly wish to leave your family's embrace?" "Stop with the nonsense." "What is so nonsensical about it!" "We were never family to begin with, so isn't it strange to forcibly remain within that embrace?" "Even so, you are a child of the Odoi family!" Grit refused to give up. He already knew that backing down here would worsen their relations with the Persi grand ducal family to the worst possible state. But more than anything, what…-
