Who Stole The Empress

gret putting the dagger to her neck even though her neck was hurt from it.

 

It was much better to hurt her body than to reveal the truth.

 

It was really a last resort.

 

She could not say for sure whether it would be true or not, but it was God’s move to hold the sword with the idea that she would die if she was found out.

 

“I love you, Your Majesty.
I love you so much.
I know you hate me for lying down all the time because I’m weak, but I still love you.”

 

She constantly spat out words of love.

 

Gillotti was a man who was surprisingly vulnerable to the word love.

 

He had everything, but the only thing he lacked was someone who loved him completely.

 

Once Natasha realized this, she persistently spat out the words “I love you” to him.

 

“Yes, you love me.
I love you too.
….”

 

Gillotti’s hands tightened as he hugged Natasha’s back.

 

Then he spoke in a grim voice.

 

“By the way.”

 

It was at that very moment that Natasha sensed something was wrong.

 

“Why did Roxon come out of your room that morning?”

Gillotti’s grinning voice pierced Natasha’s ear.

“…… what?”

 

That night, Asha and Tamon heard the unexpected news from Ronasso, who hurried over to visit.

 

“Natasha Roanti is locked up?”

 

“Ummm, I heard that she was locked in her room, to be precise.”

 

After that nightmare night, they had been observing certain changes in Gillotti.

 

He was an emperor with a sensitive temperament, so it was sure that something was going to go wrong somewhere.

 

Yes, an accident did indeed occur.

 

But no one could have predicted that the accident would happen to Natasha Roanti.

 

“How did Natasha Roanti suddenly get locked up? Did Gillotti know that she had already given birth?”

 

Tamon murmured curiously, and Asha shook her head.

 

“…… No, I don’t think so.”

 

If Gillotti had known about it, he wouldn’t just merely lock Natasha away.

 

No matter how much Gillotti cared about Natasha, he wouldn’t just let her off as she was his only love.

 

‘He noticed something, but it wasn’t enough to kill her?’

 

Or no way.
…….
Does the man love Natasha so much that he couldn’t kill her?

 

But the startling news did not end there.

 

“Ah! And the Prime Minister suddenly collapsed.
They said he’s unconscious.”

 

Asha looked up quickly.

 

The current prime minister of Tanatos was Roxon Bake, and presumably he was the lover Natasha had kept hidden.

 

However, Natasha was trapped and Roxon was unconscious.

 

Was it not too clear what this implied? Tamon also laughed.

 

“It seems that their relationship has been discovered, doesn’t it?”

 

“No, perhaps only a suspicion.
But according to Gillotti’s personality, even if it’s only suspicion, he won’t feel comfortable unless he kills the other party……..”

There was a high possibility that he used his power out of anger.

 

Gillotti had collapsed many times using this power.

 

After that, he seemed to be careful, but this time he couldn’t overcome his short temper.

 

“From the looks of it, he’ll be down again for a few days.”

 

Then this was an opportunity.

 

A great chance to finish up the work quickly while Gillotti was quiet.

 

Ronasso talked some more with Tamon and returned to the imperial castle, while Tamon led his men out to look for Natasha’s child.

 

Asha went up to the top floor of the mansion alone and stared out at the Imperial Palace at dusk, lost in thought.

 

‘We have to get this done quickly before July is over.’

 

As Gillotti had done with the Sunset family, so quickly and so swiftly that there was no time to counteract.

 

She recalled a secret written exchange she had had with Hans a few days earlier.

 

‘He said he had collected 21 nobles’ statements.’

 

Yes, this was enough.

 

It was not a large number, but it was enough to help Hans.

 

Then all that was needed anymore was the preliminary work.

 

She stared at her reflection in the window.

 

Unusual silver hair, purple eyes, lively white skin …….

 

It wouldn’t be a bad idea to take advantage of this appearance.

 

She ate a light dinner and washed up, then read a book in front of the fireplace on the first floor.

 

The chirping of grass insects sounded faintly through the chilly weather.

 

Night was falling, and the night was somehow approaching the threshold of dawn.

 

The moderately warm and cozy fireplace light danced on the white paper.

 

Aisha suddenly raised her head after reading a book that was boring to most people and had sufficient killing power just by its thickness.

 

From outside she heard the sound of horseshoes announcing Tamon’s return.

 

She quickly closed the book and went outside with her prepared coat.
