‘He must have heard.’
Whether he knew or not, she didn’t want her identity revealed by someone else.
But as Sephia had guessed, Roxan remained calm.
However, his golden eyes had noticeably darkened.
‘He seems upset.’
It might be a misconception, but it felt that way.
While Sephia was observing him, Titie approached them, followed by a maid holding the parasol.
The maid, who appeared timid and of a gentle nature, flinched under Sephia’s gaze.
Soon, Titie walked up to Sephia and stared at her intently.
“I didn’t expect to see the Empress here.”
Her cheeks were painted with rose blush, and she smiled brightly.
How could she approach so casually after looking so hurt?
“What brings you here?”
“The Emperor told me to find a place I liked, perhaps wanting to gift it to me.”
Titie’s eyes sparkled as if she was waiting for this question.
Remembering Demios, her cheeks flushed.
“I was looking around the castle and ended up here.”
She spoke animatedly, like a woman in love.
But Sephia couldn’t take her words at face value.
‘Really, all the way to the back of the Empress’ palace?’
Just to find a desirable area?
The claim itself was unbelievable, but discovering the lake was even more peculiar.
Behind Titie, a maid held a map of the palace.
The lake behind the Empress’ palace, meant only for the royal family’s relaxation, was not marked on any map.
Despite the silence, Titie stood there, admiring the lake.
“The lake is really beautiful. If we neatly trim those reeds over there and plant camellias in the winter and cherry trees in the spring, it would be perfect.”
Titie was acting as if the lake was already hers.
Imagining the lake being altered in her mind made it even harder for Sephia to tolerate.
“That’s impossible.”
“Why?”
Titie blinked her large eyes in surprise.
Her naturally clear, purple eyes looked particularly deep under the shade of the parasol.
She looked down, seemingly hurt.
“Since the first time I met you, Empress, you’ve only ever said no to me. It really… hurts my feelings.”
Her delicate white eyelashes quivered frailly.
Biting her lower lip, tears brimming in her eyes, Titie looked fragile enough to collapse at any moment.
Herbivorous albino.
In front of such a tender creature, who was considered the lowest in the ecosystem, Sephia always ended up being the perpetrator.
“…This is the back of the Empress’s palace and an area only accessible to the royal family. That’s why it’s not marked on the palace map.”
“Really? I didn’t know. No one stopped me. Isn’t that right, Luna?”
Titie, who had retracted her tears as if surprised, asked the maid.
Luna, the maid addressed, nodded excessively.
Titie explained why Luna nodded instead of answering, even though Sephia hadn’t asked.
“Please forgive Luna, Empress. Actually, she can’t speak. She lost her parents early and was working in menial tasks at a count’s house. I found her very pitiable and took her in.”
She wore a look of sympathy as she linked arms with Luna.
Overwhelmed by her mistress’s excessive friendliness, Luna quickly averted her eyes.
“Being unable to speak is not her fault. I’ve never blamed her for that.”
Sephia’s comment made Luna’s shoulders twitch.
Titie pushed the maid behind her and smiled brightly at Sephia.
“I was just worried you might hold it against her.”
It was a subtly pointed remark.
Before Sephia could address it, Titie’s purple eyes sparkled as if she had found her target.
“But…”
Her gaze shifted to Roxan.
After making eye contact and shyly turning away, Titie asked Sephia.
“Who is this gentleman? I’ve been wanting to ask since earlier.”

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.
[Although it’s inappropriate, I also want a young and handsome boyfriend to have my child.]
