The situation was in a chaotic state, and the Prince was about to get married. They couldnt even announce that there was anything wrong because Prince Killian slept with his intended bride!

Albert shared Ians concerns, and came up with the answer after a long time. We cant take a maid in, but Mrs. Grayson would be fine. It wouldnt seem strange for her to come in and out of Asta Palace, since His Highness himself remembered her husbands contribution and raised her to the higher status. Ill send someone right away.

A hot atmosphere was forming again in the bedroom, where there was no way to know the troubles of the servants.

Your Highness, no more. You didnt keep your promise after all.

Killian replied with a low smile at Juliettas cry. What are you talking about? I said I wouldnt go to the end if you didnt want to. But it was you who wanted me to yesterday.

Ashamed, Julietta pushed Killian away and quickly turned around and put a blanket on herself. Killian whispered as he pushed her down from behind, The sun has already risen. I dont want to get out of bed, but Im sorry, as I have to get up soon. Show me your face. Then I think I can work hard today. Lets it do one more time before you go back to reality, huh? Lets do it one more time.

What are you doing? Youve done it twice already.

I didnt do it many times because of you. Im sure theyre wondering outside why I dont wake up, but will I just stay like this?

At Killians threat to stay in bed if she didnt allow it, Julietta answered with a low voice. Then, only one last time. You got it?

Well, then. I promise. Killian solemnly answered, hiding his thoughts as his big body pressed Julietta relentlessly.

Its only for today. Eventually, he managed to appease Julietta, who pretended to be sulky and hid her shyness, and satisfied his lust.

Ignoring his words that it was one last time, Killian harassed her for a long time after that and managed to get ready just before the start of the meeting. As soon as the satisfied Killian left the bedroom pleasantly, Maribel entered. She pretended not to see Julietta, who was too shy to get up, until Maribel brewed tea, drank leisurely, and said to her, Get up. Its already been thirty minutes since His Highness went to the main castle. Theres nobody out here right now.

Julietta, on the other hand, was nervous because she felt like someone had entered the room. She couldnt even ask who it was, but was just worrying about what she looked like. The wig and other parts of her disguise were somewhere in the room with her clothes.

But when she heard Maribels voice, a sigh of relief came out of her mouth. Is there really no one outside?

Yes. His Highness told me not to let anyone in. He set up the hall full of knights and went to the main castle. Even Sir Albert couldnt get into the lounge.

When she heard that no one was there, Juliettas arms leaped out of the blanket covering her head. Please give me my clothes. She couldnt go to the bathroom with nothing on.

Wouldnt it be uncomfortable to dress up like that without washing?

At Maribels words, Juliettas arms hesitated and slipped into the quilt.

Go quickly to the bathroom. Whats embarrassing to me? Dont forget that I was the one who bathed and raised you for a while as a child. And when someone is my age, there is nothing amazing about a man-and-wife night.

Julietta stood up, pouting, wrapping the sheets that she had been rolling in all night around herself. When Maribel saw her, she burst out laughing.

Youd faint if I offered you a bath. I have to clean the sheets, so please wash up in a hurry and come out. I cant leave it to the maids, so I need to do it myself.

Julietta paused. She felt sorry for Maribel.

Maribel smiled at Juliettas reaction and added, The investigation team left for Tilia early in the morning.

When she remembered that at Maribels words, Julietta quickly disappeared into the bathroom. She had to hurry because she had a lot to do.

Oh, my God, what is this? Has His Highness been so wild with you?

Maribel spoke up as she was helping Julietta change her clothes after washing her face. She was embarrassed with the red marks all over Julietta.

Juliettas lips were also swollen, and she looked at her reflection in the mirror as if she were ashamed. Maribel put a wig on her with the look, led her to the chair next to the terrace and had her sit down.

I dont have to ask you how great you were yesterday. I could see how good he felt when I saw the face of His Highness. But its too early. You shouldnt have allowed it until you were married.

Julietta should have avoided pregnancy, but in the unlikely event, Maribel worried.

I said he shouldnt do it until I get married.

But?

At first, I said no, no but it soon became yes

Maribel looked at Julietta with a stern eye, at the words that she finally allowed because she liked it. In a way, it was fortunate that Julietta now seemed to like the Prince.

He never spent the morning with a woman at the Harrods mansion. Its a good sign that he hasnt left your side until this time.

Julietta snorted at Maribels words. Good sign? Why do I need that? Dont even compare me with another woman of His Highness. Im not the kind of woman who thirsts for his love and attention.

Maribel smiled as she looked at Julietta, who looked as if her pride was hurt. Then what kind of woman are you?

I am the only one. I am in an equal relationship with him. I dont think Im lacking to him, and he wont blame me for the past. There will be love, respect, and faith between us, and if there is a betrayal in between, there will be only separation.

Are you saying that if he lets another woman in, youre going to give up the seat of the Empress?

It is no big deal.

Maribel burst into laughter after seeing Julietta snort as if it was nothing. Yes, thats not a big deal. If youre in a safe position, you can quit being the Empress. By then I shall have settled down in the imperial court as a Countess. Youve put me there, and Id be greedy if I wanted more from you.

Julietta pouted, holding back what she wanted to say: that Maribel was the one being greedy, taking advantage of her.

Anyway, even if youre a divorced Empress, Im sure you wont worry about your future because you are still Princess Kiellini. Yes, thats how you have to live. Dont hang your head to anyone.

Prince Killian would never get away from Julietta. It couldnt happen that he would leave such a lovely child. There would be no other woman beside him except for Julietta as long as she was there. If any woman tried to entice His Highness, she would have to pay a commensurate price. If they wouldnt want to die, they should not be a moth throwing themselves into the fire.

Maribel curled her eyes and kissed Julietta on the forehead. Julietta opened her eyes wide at the sudden action. Why did you do that?

Im sorry youre not my daughter. Maribel stroked Juliettas head affectionately and muttered, But it doesnt matter.

Or what? I could be with you like this.

Come on, you must eat well, because you must have consumed so much energy yesterday. There was a meal for me as a guest, but you can eat it. The meal of a maid wont be enough.

Maribel raised Julietta, ignoring her sullen look, and took her outside.

Only

During the night of Julietta and Killians sweet encounter, Sir Caden went with his fellow knights to a village near the Tilia Territory and drank sadly about the Dukes death. He hurried back to the annex with a serious look on his face when he had the opportunity and met with the watchman.

We are in trouble.

Whats the matter?

It was said that a man who was inquiring about the princess returned to the capital and entered the Anais mansion.

The Anais mansion?

Yes, sir. His Highness told the watcher that if theres anyone like that, he should track him and find out who dispatched him.

Adams face became serious and Valerian asked, Would it have been ordered by the Marquis of Anais?
