“What’s going on?”
Savil looked at the woman who had run up to him.
“Your Highness.”
Her silver hair was disheveled, and her cheeks were flushed, as if she had hurriedly run here. Looking into her green eyes, Savil pretended to know.
“Who is this? Isn’t it the one who hated being called and forced to come to the Crystal Palace? Did she have regrets?”
When she couldn’t answer quickly, he teased her.
“Did you rush over yearning for my embrace?”
There were murmurs around. There were too many watching eyes. Karina felt conflicting emotions, the impulse to press Savil’s cheek against hers, and the opposite desire to cling to the child’s existence.
“Your Highness.”
When Karina straightened herself and courteously bowed, Savil, the woman under both arms, and the one on his knee all looked at her with curious eyes.
“Who is she? Your Highness?”
“Well…”
Seeing Savil looking at her as if he didn’t know her, Karina’s heart sank deeper.
‘What kind of emperor judges fairly and settles disputes?’
Given the condition of the prince, such a marriage was impossible. She was sure there would be no flower garden dreamt by Viscount and Viscountess Harrington. At that moment, she felt a slight pain as if her stomach had tightened.
“Ah…”
Karina whimpered, and as if in pain, she frowned. The women’s eyes, filled with young curiosity, turned to concern. Feeling sweat on her forehead, Karina quickly opened her mouth.
“I am Karina of Viscount Harrington. I have something I must tell Your Highness.”
“Hmm. I’m busy right now.”
“I won’t take up much of your time. Please…”
“Then come in for a moment.”
However, the women by his side still clung to him.
“Just let me look around for a moment…”
“You have a lot of requests.”
“Please. Your Highness.”
Seeing Karina in such a state, the women by Savil’s side exchanged glances and rose, moving away from him.
Karina felt like her heart was pounding loudly.
There had never been a moment in her life when she felt so tense and fearful.
“I am pregnant.”
“What?”
“Savil. You allowed me to use your name. It’s your child.”
Karina felt like tears were about to fall, but she held back and spoke steadily.
He played with her. Then he came to insult her without a care, even seeking to trouble Duke Uter’s household.
It all started because of Savil.
If he hadn’t heartlessly abandoned her, Karina wouldn’t have shed tears, harbored a bitter heart, and clung to Illeon like a lifeline.
But for the sake of the new life growing in her belly, she could endure humiliation and turn a blind eye.
“My child?”
For a moment, the focus in Savil’s eyes blurred.
‘What, what is this?’
Having seen him up close, Karina couldn’t help but shiver. However, in the next moment, Savil stood up, smiling casually, and took Karina’s hand.
“Oh, you’re pregnant with my child.”
“Your Highness.”
Savil lightly embraced Karina.
“Why are you mentioning this only now?”
“Uh, Your Highness didn’t meet me…”
“Enough. Let’s cover up such matters.”
Savil gently wiped away the tears in Karina’s eyes.
“I’ll arrange a carriage for tomorrow night. Take it and come to the palace.”
Karina was taken aback. It seemed like such an easy resolution.
“T-Thank you.”
Karina, constantly bowing in gratitude, didn’t see Savil’s cold expression.
She was a woman who shone faintly like cutting through moonlight.
A beautiful woman.
At her words, Savil, seemingly surprised, held the woman’s hand.
When Savil smiled enchantingly, Elysia trembled and burst into tears.
The next day, Elysia was found in the palace pond, lifeless. However, the cause was not drowning but assassination.
Karina’s expression and words brought to the surface the implications buried deep in Savil’s consciousness about the child she had confessed to.
“Ugh.”
Savil tried to regain control of his constantly fading consciousness.
However, a certain phrase kept haunting his mind.
For Elysia, who openly revealed her desire to escape from him, the punishment inflicted by him was death.
In the sanctuary of the Grand Temple in Haddonsha.
As Iris closed the door to the prayer room and entered, she was greeted by Roben and Esho.
“Was there no contact from the Duchess?”
Roben asked, and Iris sighed.
“No. It was all about Miss Elysia returning to Haddonsha.”
“That’s a big deal in itself.”
Roben sighed, and even Esho, who would usually react playfully, remained silent.
The original story has reached its starting point.
