Trapped in the Mad Duke's Snare (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 75
The imperial party, having invited all the nobles, boasted an enormous scale.
The invitation did not even specify the venue, so they had to follow the stewards’ guidance—and the place where the duke and duchess arrived was the Great Hall at the heart of the imperial palace.
The Great Hall was reserved only for momentous imperial announcements or grand imperial celebrations.
All the nobles were burning with curiosity about what announcement the imperial family might make.
After some time passed, the largest door of the hall—which had remained shut since their arrival—finally opened.
“Her Imperial Majesty the Empress approaches!”
At the steward’s cry, both doors swung open, and the Empress entered the hall with elegant grace.
“His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince and Lady Larie of House Estillen also approach.”
Immediately afterward, Trashi and Larie followed the Empress inside.
The Empress, the Crown Prince, and his betrothed ascended the elevated dais and surveyed the assembled nobles.
Trashi’s gaze locked firmly onto Cassis.
“I am truly delighted you have all so readily accepted this urgent invitation. Today, I have a most crucial announcement to make.”
At the Empress’s words, every noble fixed their attention on the dais where the imperial family stood.
“We intend to hasten the union between the Crown Prince and House Estillen, ahead of the originally planned schedule.”
The marriage between the Crown Prince and Lady Larie had long been anticipated.

Wow, I thought these two had made progress. I’m a bit surprised by the Duke’s reaction but he has been ill and chronic illness can affect your thought process.
I get the feeling Severus isn’t what he appears to be. Perhaps like his namesake?
