There was no time to ask where they were going. He quickly entered a store. Only when the bitter scent of medicinal herbs reached her nose did Iella realize he had brought her to an herbal medicine shop. Aster went to the shop owner who welcomed them and showed him Iella's two hands. "I'd like to have the thorns removed and the wounds disinfected and treated." "Oh my, how did this happen? Please come this way." "It's fine......" "I'm not particularly doing this because I want to. I'm doing…-

'Don't trust Vanessa too much?' Ailexia, who had thrown out such an absurd statement without any reason, disappeared without a trace. Iella belatedly went out of the alley to look for her, but she had already vanished from sight as if she had evaporated. Unable to tell which of the many alleyways she had gone down, Iella had to give up the pursuit. All that remained was bewilderment. 'Is she joking?' But her expression had been far too solemn for that—so much so that Iella was surprised she…

'If anyone is true to their desires, it's you more than anyone else! And you don't care who it is!' Meanwhile, Chase was looking only at her. 'Such devotion, there's no devotion like it...!' Then she froze in shock at her own thoughts. The surge of emotion was extremely embarrassing. Why she felt this way about their relationship, which had absolutely nothing to do with her, was completely baffling. Bluntly speaking, even if Ailexia played with Chase and then discarded him, it wouldn't concern her…

Iella immediately ran after her. Why was she here instead of the northern forest, when did she come here—such thoughts briefly crossed her mind, but there was no time for lengthy contemplation. With the sole determination not to lose her this time, she moved her feet. She pushed through crowds of people, passed between buildings, and turned corners two or three times. No matter how fast the other person was, making the distance difficult to close, she didn't give up and persistently…

'Huff.... Gasp. Why is it so..., phew. Wide? Maybe it feels worse because Ailexia's stamina is at rock bottom. Whew.' Iella felt like death. Surely when she got off the carriage and checked the streets, they didn't seem this vast, but now that she was walking, the area seemed endless. She hadn't even explored half of it yet. Combined with Ailexia's stamina that she had overlooked, she was truly on the verge of collapse. Perhaps instead of doing embroidery during those idle moments, she should have…

'Ah, so that's where he went first.' Thanks to Helios's words, Nix could understand why Chase hadn't immediately gone to see Ailexia. Come to think of it, since the emperor had caused the trouble, it made sense that he would visit him first. "At first I didn't meet him. I had other things to confirm first." Helios recalled the moment Ailexia woke up. The woman who had seemed clumsy and docile had turned back into a cunning fox who didn't know her place. So he thought it had been his…

"Hmm......" Nix sighed with a troubled expression. In his view, he could see Grand Duke von Rubalt's carriage just leaving the secondary palace in the distance. Inside it was Iella. 'To think it would turn into something like this in that short time.' Sensing Chase approaching the bedroom, he had first avoided the area and taken Vanessa to her room. It seemed his effort in grabbing her nape and jumping out of the bedroom had been worthwhile, as Vanessa, who had been acting like her soul had left…

"...Why are you looking at me like that?" Perhaps her feelings had unconsciously shown on her face. Chase raised his eyebrows and asked sharply. Iella hurriedly composed her expression and gaze, pretending nothing was wrong. Then, before he could add anything, she answered first. "You're caught in an extremely arrogant misunderstanding." "Misunderstanding?" "Do I look like someone who would be swayed by such a thing? To the point of giving up my life? Frankly speaking, what meaning do you…

'......A flower?' Iella blinked blankly. The freshly bloomed flower's uniquely vibrant appearance brightened her eyes. Confusion washed over her like a wave. '......Why?' That was the only thought that came to mind. Chase giving a flower to Ailexia—why? No matter how much she thought about it, she couldn't understand the reason. Their relationship wasn't close enough to exchange such gifts. Of course, since Chase harbored sexual desire for Ailexia, it wasn't strange in that sense. Flowers…

Aristie dreamed. In her dream, she was a little child about five or six years old. While adults chatted in the distance, Aristie crouched in the grass picking flowers. She wanted to try making a flower crown with her own hands, like the one her mother had made for her recently. While she struggled to weave the flowers together, almost crushing them in the process, suddenly a shadow fell over her head. She looked up to see Khalid gazing down at her with sparkling golden…-
