Many things had to be accomplished on this visit to Jado.

Attending the Canary’s banquet was, of course, on the agenda, but the silent war was gradually revealing its substance.

It was a game where someone had to die for it to end.

Cassius turned his head towards the direction Lenisha was pointing.

As Lenisha said, Jado was getting closer day by day.

Mateo stayed in Hiloshine with the Marquis and Marchioness.

They were detaching Mateo and heading towards where Lexis was.

For Cassius, men who were more obsessed with standing by Lenisha’s side than anything else were far more concerning.

Lexis.

The madman who looked at Lenisha with heated eyes.

The Marquis Elliot issued a final warning to Cassius.

‘The Emperor’s obsession with Empress Lenisha is abnormal. It’s illogical and unreasonable. Do you know that the Emperor is building a residence for Lenisha outside? Emperor Lexis will try anything to capture Empress Lenisha again. Be careful. The destination is Jado. It’s a place where you might lose more than your nose in the blink of an eye.’

Cassius’s jaw tightened.

While Lenisha and Cassius were in the same place, they were seeing different things and thinking different thoughts.

Canary found Madame Turiel’s dressing room.

People who enjoyed gossiping claimed that Turiel followed the power like a migratory bird, seeing how closely she got along with Canary, almost indistinguishable from each other.

Such rumors may have spread because Canary insisted on wearing only the clothes made by Turiel.

Moreover, even after becoming the Empress, she did not hesitate to visit Turiel’s dressing room in person.

Turiel gave a faint smile.

It was now a curious situation.

Whether Turiel really sided with Canary.

Or if Canary believed that she had made Turiel her own with just a few words!

Canary looked at Turiel and smiled.

Turiel, who had begun to gather a slightly rounded lower abdomen, held it in her hands, seeming to have found stability compared to before.

“Lenisha will arrive in Jado soon, Madame Turiel.”

In the natural conversation, Turiel suppressed a smile.

“Yes, I know.”

“Lenisha will respond to my invitation and attend the social gathering, right? She will support me there, naturally?”

Canary firmly believed that if she had Turiel, Lenisha would have her too.

Turiel continued to arrange gatherings with the ladies for Canary, devotedly working on her words and actions.

It was a completely different attitude from before when she was choosing dresses.

Barbara was pleased to see the changing Canary.

‘It seems you’re gradually accumulating qualities as an Empress, Your Majesty! You can become an excellent Empress!’
It felt like things were settling down.

Moreover, Lexis has been quiet lately.

Canary and Lexis have reached a point where they can have a normal meal and conversation.

The child is also growing up well, so there is no reason for Canary to be sad or in pain.

Swallowing a sigh while looking at Turiel’s comfortable face with a smile.

‘Can it really be this calm even without shame!’

Canary, one of the people who had raised Lenisha to hell, is now hoping for Lenisha’s support.

Turiel stared at Canary unemotionally.

“Lenisha seems to be absent-minded, so I’m planning to prepare a dress for her instead. As you know, madams are sensitive to fashion. Lenisha must have deteriorated during her time in Hiloshine. As the Empress, I should help, shouldn’t I?”

Canary nodded as if impressed with herself.

“…You’re right. So, are you ordering a dress for Empress Lenisha?”

“Yes. This time, the dress code is decided as red.”

Canary’s eyes sparkled as she spoke.

Turiel realized that Canary was not completely forgetting the past.

Red.

It was the color Lenisha had used before to torment Canary.

Turiel gave a chilling smile.

“Red, did you say?”

“Yes. I’m planning to have a new dress made along with Lenisha’s dress. Lexis has approved it too.”

Canary wore a proud smile.

During the dinner last night, Lexis allowed Canary to have a new dress made.

In reality, the budget assigned to Canary was outrageous.

Even if she complained about it, Lexis had a predetermined response.

‘A queen with nothing to do will be criticized if she spends money. ‘

Canary decided to adapt to the current situation.

Even though she needed Lexis’s permission to buy a dress, it was fine.

This time, Canary could get a larger amount than expected, thanks to ‘Lenisha.’

The face of the man who willingly gave money when he heard that Lenisha would also have a dress made.

‘Son of a bitch.’

Just as people secretly harbored different thoughts, Canary also had different thoughts.

If only the child is born… Just this child…

Canary clenched the hem of her skirt.

Canary was also preparing for Lexis’s end.

In front of Canary, it seemed like she was holding a baby in her arms, dressed in a gown, sitting on the throne.

Barbara’s words became the catalyst for Canary’s awakening.

With all these thoughts hidden, Canary laughed cheerfully.
