Cade straightened himself up.

“It would be nice to hear your explanations of how you are loyal to me, but I don’t have time.”

Cade shook the bell on the desk.

The attendants who were waiting outside came in again.

“I’d like to get one more seat at the luncheon and I’m going to go there now.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

Abella collapsed her shoulders in despair.

Series of things happened regardless of her will that seemed to stop Abella’s breath.

It’s bad.

As it used to be, Cade was trying to put Abella in front of people and see her fall.


Cade held his forearm to Abella, who couldn’t move.

“Will you give me the honor of escorting you?”

His words were soft, but only his eyes were cool.

Again, it was an order.

Not a suggestion.

Abella placed her pale tired hand on Cade’s forearm.

‘It’s still the same.’

No matter how much time passed, it seems that the powerful people who held the imperial castle never changed.

It has never been more fortunate that Amerigo now focused on commerce rather than politics.

Amerigo, as a member of the great nobility, only had to attend the aristocratic association meeting held once a month.

Abella swallowed her sigh.

The luncheon where Cade took Abella was a light and ambiguous place.

Ambassadors from each country and key figures from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs participated, but the topic of the conversation was not too heavy.

At first, people seemed to be conscious of Abella’s existence, but now they completely forgot and were talking.

This has been the case ever since Cade introduced Abella.

Even after someone whispered “cursed woman”.

In the end, Cade brought Abella here to impress his subjects.

Cade was still cruel and ugly.

On that subject, Abella sat in the upper seat right next to Cade.

“Why aren’t you eating?”

Asked Cade, scouring his food with a bored face.

Abella shook her head with a look as ambiguous as her position.

‘Even if I eat here, I’ll have an upset stomach……’

Even the most delicious food was bitter in a place like this.

Cade stared at Abella with his eyes wide open.

White face and thin platinum hair.

Silver-colored hair was shining like a star under the light. The color of Abella’s eyes, which look different depending on the viewing angle, was more prominent.

The fever of love, which he suffered after Abella became engaged to Arsene, still remained.

Still, Abella was far from being caught.

‘But you’re still here.’

When he heard Abella had returned to Amerigo, he foreshadowed that one day this would happen.

If she was Abella who was responsible and loved Amerigo, then she would protect them.

Cade touched his lips, then he bit everything back.

As if he knew speaking to her would only hurt her feelings.

Just one meal now.

And one for dinner.

He thought he could be satisfied with that much today.

Wasn’t this different from the old days when he acted like a fool to get Abella’s attention?

To meet Abella’s eyes who always looked at Arsene, he said without hesitation what he shouldn’t have said.

Because it was better to be hated than to lose it at all.

But still……

Cade wet his bitter mouth with water.

Abella wasn’t looking at Cade.

He wanted Abella to raise her chin which was facing down.

He didn’t know when he’d see her again, but he wanted to see her properly.

“Abella.”

So Cade, who couldn’t stand it, called Abella.

He was satisfied with the purple gaze that moved towards him.

The last place Cade took Abella was the concert hall.

The two people sat side by side in the VIP seats and listened to the performance.


As the seat was prepared for the emperor, a dedicated attendant was also allocated, and cold wine and a simple snack were prepared inside the tent-covered interior.

Abella grabbed her glass of wine that she hadn’t taken a sip of.

“Haa.”

Abella sighed secretly from Cade.

She didn’t think he would really bring Abella to all his schedules…

Cade took her everywhere but the bathroom.

When he signed the papers and looked back at Abella, he smiled.

‘You told me to prove my loyalty.’

Abella glared at the back of Cade’s head.

In the first place, it was this empire and the imperial family that Abella was loyal to, not the individual Cade.
