How the Abandoned Queen Made That Man Kneel (Completed Main Story) - Extra 8

The court physician, summoned by the emperor, hurriedly arrived at the estate and immediately opened the medical bag to begin the examination.

Kayan, lying obediently on the bed, rolled their eyes nervously, unsure of what to do. Even if Kasallin was one thing, Parnes stood there with an expression that clearly showed he was deeply upset.
