The senior courtier Hyde, who always assisted the palace, was talking. Hyde sighed deeply at the doctor’s words that Kun had not regained consciousness.
“I understand. Please pay more attention to Her Majesty’s examination. You should not disclose the whereabouts of Her Majesty the Empress, even if Her Majesty the Emperor asks.”
Cloe also needed to regain stability, so it was their belief not to disclose his condition and location.
‘But…’
Mom must be worrying a lot about Dad.
Having peeked at Cloe earlier, Beatrice read her mind. Missing Kun, wanting to see him. She hoped that Dad would also feel this precious emotion.
‘Well, then I should help!’
From the conversation between the two, it was learned that Kun is currently staying at the Crown Prince’s palace. There is no reason not to inform this fact to Mom, who loves him.
Beatrice diligently flew to find Cloe. While pretending to take a walk for recovery, she seemed to be searching for the Emperor’s residence.
Seeing her wanting to enter the greenhouse garden, Beatrice sneaked in behind the knights who were searching the garden and hid behind a tree. Then, when Cloe was alone in the greenhouse garden, she approached and made a familiar gesture.
“Pippi?”
Beatrice signaled her to follow, hoping that Cloe, who understood the meaning, would enter the Crown Prince’s palace. As Beatrice stopped in front of the Crown Prince’s palace, Cloe, who had followed her, said, “Pippi!”
The hourglass sparkled in front of Beatrice as she observed Cloe’s departure. It was a notification that the time had come.
‘Did you achieve everything you wanted?’
A sacred voice echoed in the air. It was the voice of Pope Panteion.
‘Yes!’
Soon, cheerful Beatrice’s response followed.
‘Now it’s time to return to the arms of my real mom and dad.’
A while later, the heat of the blazing sun enveloped Beatrice’s body. If the brilliant radiance made her mind distant, when she woke up…
“Bea, did you have a good dream?”
Her endlessly loving mother welcomed her warmly.
Beatrice smiled brightly, looking at Cloe, who was patting her cheek. Soon, the other party spread her arms and sent a signal for a hug. In response, Beatrice also naturally embraced her.
At that moment, Beatrice unconsciously checked her mother’s arms. Beyond the sleeves that were naturally bundled during the embrace, there was only flawless white skin left.
Surprised, Beatrice lifted her mother’s skirt without asking for permission.
A surprised sigh came from Cloe, but she didn’t mind and explored her white thighs. All the scars that had been drawn on the clear milky-white thighs were now cleanly erased.
Coming out of the skirt width, Beatrice burst into tears. Cloe, who was going to scold her for the rude behavior, was startled and hugged her daughter without hesitation.
“Mom…!”
Softly patting her back, her mother’s gentle touch intensified Beatrice’s emotions. She was crying, dribbling snot unceremoniously.
“Don’t be in pain, Mom.”
“Huh?”
“Never, never be in pain again…!”
The current mom is not in pain.
On a sunny day, she could wear short-sleeved clothes without caring about other people’s eyes. Similarly, she didn’t have to wear tight stockings every day.
She didn’t have to see Dad feeling sorry as he fetched ointment. She no longer had to witness the weak side of Dad apologizing every time he brought it.
“Mom, remember the day Dad saved us from the fire! Did he look cool like a hero?”
“Yes, he did. There was no one as cool and reliable as him.”
“You heard that, Derek? This is how you can marry your mom.”
“I’ll be even cooler than Dad!”
Now, there is no one who remembers the pain of that day. Those who regret that day also…
During breakfast, Beatrice deliberately asked about that day’s events.
The events of that day were no longer something to be hidden. The distant past had now become a joke, a tale of Kun’s heroism.
“All thanks to Pippi.”
Cloe, wiping her mouth with a handkerchief, smiled slyly.
“Pippi?”
“Not Pippi, but my own Pippi. Don’t you remember? I said Pippi helped us.”
“That’s right. After that, Pippi suddenly disappeared, and I felt regret.”
Suddenly revealing her own story, Beatrice was surprised and her jaw dropped. She coughed awkwardly and asked, pretending not to know.
“Um, how did Pippi help?”
“Like fate, Pippi helped with everything. Delivering my note to your dad, and later, finding your dad.”
“Smart kid!”
“Yeah, so it’s my own Pippi. Not Dad’s Pippi, but the lovely Pippi that only Mom cherishes.”
At the following words, Beatrice involuntarily twisted her body.
Our Pippi, known only to Mom and me.
When Beatrice grows up and sheds the girl’s image, perhaps at a time when others believe her words are not exaggeration but truth.
By that time, our Pippi, known only to Mom and me, could be revealed.
Side Story End.
Male lead fell into her trap — and shattered when she walked away
This is also on my reread list!
This one is a slow burn, but when it burns, it burns hard.
Definitely worth a read, y’all!
The story follows a thousand-year-old seductive spirit who, on a bet, sets out to charm the male lead—a once-promising but unfortunate cultivator.
But just when she succeeds in making him fall for her, she heartlessly leaves, driving him to madness.
Determined to find her at all costs, he captures her, keeping her by his side no matter what, even if she hates him.
I love this kind of trope—I enjoy watching the male lead suffer in agony.
The ending drags a bit with unnecessary filler, but that’s fine.
As long as I enjoy the beginning, I’m good.
