Don’t worry. I’ll endure until your body fully recovers.
Like a beast crouching low in front of its prey… Unlike the endlessly languid touch, his deepening blue eyes began to burn fiercely.
Staring at the eyes of the man who seemed ready to pounce at any moment, Idel’s trembling lips parted weakly. The pulsating sound echoed in her ears like a raging surge.
On a lazy afternoon, Idel welcomed a visitor who brought her favorite dessert.
“Ophelia, thank you for coming.”
“I wanted to visit more often, but I couldn’t. I was afraid of the strange caregiver’s suspicions.”
Ophelia complained with a squinted eye. Unless it was a meeting that the Duke must attend, Idel conducted all official duties in her bedroom.
If it weren’t for the ongoing last envoy meeting, it would have been difficult for the Duke, who was like the incarnation of monopoly greed, to visit today.
“I told you before, right? The Duke is infatuated with you? There are rumors spreading in the Lisandro social circle. It seems the Duke cherishes the Duchess more than anything else.”
From retaliating against the second prince by touching the Duchess, to dueling with the first prince for the honor of the Duchess… The Duke’s actions displayed for Elyos Lisandro had caused a stir in the Lisandro social circle.
“You have always done everything for me.”
“Haha. I doubted it a little, but now I completely believe it.”
Ophelia, who became close through asking about Idel’s news, had also learned about the daily care the Duchess received from the Duke through Vien.
Smiling Ophelia looked at Idel’s face, radiant like a flower bud brimming with affection and interest.
“It seems your body has recovered now. Fortunately.”
“Thanks to your concern, I’m fine… How about Ophelia? I’m worried that the situation between Reignian and Ophelia might have become awkward due to this incident.”
Idel was well aware of the power struggle within the Lisandro royal family. Especially with this incident, she was concerned that the relationship between Empress Lisandro, the first and second princes, and Ophelia might have become more complicated.
As Idel looked at Ophelia with concern, Ophelia smiled and tilted her head slightly.
“Actually, things have turned out well. Thanks to you, Reignian has come to his senses.”
“Reignian?”
“In fact, Reignian is extremely busy at the moment. He wanted me to apologize for not being able to bring his regards to you due to the lack of time.”
“What happened to Reignian?”
“He has actively entered the competition for the imperial throne.”
“…!”
“Until now, he showed no interest in the imperial throne, but he has completely changed. Even those who were worried about the future of Lisandro while watching the first and second princes are in an uproar about Reignian’s transformation. He’s been working day and night, consolidating support from various factions.”
“I see. If that’s the direction Reignian wishes to take, I also want to express my support.”
“To Reignian, your existence alone is already sufficient support and motivation.”
Ophelia was confident. She was sure that Idel played a crucial role in Reignian’s transformation.
To become the Emperor? Are you really determined to participate in the competition for the throne?
I want to protect something precious. To do that, I need to become a powerful existence.
Reignian…
I’m no longer just taking it. I will stake my life to protect.
Reignian’s firm, lake-like eyes gleamed sharply. The sight of Reignian, who had cast away the frail image of the weak prince he had been portraying, naturally brought someone else to mind.
Perhaps another presence had also contributed to the change in Reignian, alongside Idel…
“Ah, you’re here!”
“With the princess.”
Just as the door opened, that presence entered. As Idel warmly welcomed him, Ophelia’s gaze also turned toward him.
“Duke Elyos, there’s something I need to tell you.”
Before leaving after bidding farewell to Idel, Ophelia approached Kairon and spoke to him in a low voice.
“There’s a Uptair noble who clashed with Empress Lisandro before and after the hunting competition. He’s called Count Repenser…”
Ophelia relayed the information that Reignian had asked her to share with Kairon. Without going into detail, just hearing this information was enough for the Duke. Kairon nodded briefly as if understanding Ophelia’s words.
“Oh, and I should tell you in advance… At the upcoming envoy farewell party, don’t monopolize Idel.”
Seeing Ophelia off with a wry smile, Kairon let out a perplexed chuckle. Approaching Idel, he gently took her hand and thought to himself.
“I should leave Lisandro as soon as possible.”
As today’s envoy meeting concluded, the thoughts that had lingered in his mind throughout resurfaced.

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
