“This incompetence! Get out! Get out and die! Get out!”
Natasha, who slapped Anne’s face, slammed the ground with her screaming sobs.
Anne, whose head turned sharply after Natasha’s slap, bit her lips and clenched her fists.
Natasha’s baby was gone. (*Tamon took the baby)
As soon as the news broke, Natasha made a fuss about finding the child through Anne.
But the Marquis (Roxon) to help Anne was taken away by the Emperor, and Anne was just a maid who had neither the strength nor the time to help Natasha.
Naturally, Anne did not come with a result Natasha was satisfied with.
That made Natasha go crazy.
‘I can’t do this. I can’t do this!’
All sides were pressing her down.
Roxon was taken away by the emperor, and her child disappeared.
The emperor imprisoned her and left her stranded. Natasha, who had gone through everything before and after childbirth, was in a situation where she could not help but go crazy. Natasha put her head on her floor and cried, then suddenly raised her head.
Anne looked at Natasha who was saying sorry and sobbing with terrified eyes.
“I, I shouldn’t be doing this to you… but I’m out of my mind. Please understand. Youncan understand. Right? A mother who has lost her child can go crazy.”
Natasha’s gorgeous and innocent face was messed up with tears.
For a moment, Anne’s heart sympathized with how pitiful and weak she looked.
Natasha sobbed and took off all her jewelry she was wearing, and put it in Anne’s hand.
“Isn’t it pretty? Take this. I’ll give you more than this. You can take everything you want. You need money, right?”
Natasha rummaged through her drawers like a madman, pulled out all her jewels and handed them to Anise.
Anne looked at Natasha with a puzzled expression on her face.
She faltered, and took a step back, but to no avail. Natasha’s hand wrapped around Anne like a vine.
“One more thing, just one more thing. I’ll give you all of this, so can you go and see if Igzen and Hazen escaped the capital safely?”
As soon as Natasha was locked up in her room she immediately sent her two sons a secret note to get them out of the country.
She told them not to ask why, but urged them to get out tonight.
Although she had never been a proper mother, they were the two people Natasha cherished more than anyone else.
If things went wrong, it was natural that she would not be able to save her two sons.
Anne hesitated and nodded her head. Natasha smiled brightly with her tear-soaked face and hugged Anne.
“And one more thing, I have a request.”
Unlike Natasha, who was locked in the room, Anne was able to get out.
Of course, Anne was also being watched, but nevertheless, it was much better than a person who was locked up.
Dangerous or not, Natasha desperately needed Anne’s help now.
“Go and get a newborn baby.”
“…!”
“Aren’t I supposed to give birth soon? Whether you buy it with money or kidnapping, you have to get me a baby. Or buy a baby’s body. That’s how I’m going to tell the emperor I had a stillborn baby.”
At Natasha’s terrible words, Anne dropped all the jewels she was holding.
As Natasha saw Anne’s pale face and trembling hands, Natasha’s pleading face once again turned ghastly.
“Calm down! If I die now, do you think you’ll be fine? Keep your head up and listen to me!”
“Ha, but Lady Natasha.”
“You’re not the only one dying, Anne. You, your brother, your mother and your family will all be annihilated. You really don’t know that?”
Natusa grabbed Anne’s shoulders, shook it, and urged her.
“So, calm down and listen to me. Only when I survive can you survive!”
Anne, who was staring at Natasha, shook her head.
Natasha swallowed a sigh of relief inwardly at Anne’s droopy appearance.
Now she needed Anne.
If she had escaped like this, she would have been immobilized and her hands and feet would have been cut off.
It was fortunate that Roxon had held Anne’s family hostage.
“So, move on. Anne. Come on!”
Natasha pushed Anne away with her red eyes.
Anne picked up the jewelry that she had dropped and shoved it into her pocket.
Anne, who faltered out of Natasha’s room, sighed trembling as she leaned against the closed door.
Anne’s complexion with her head raised up was much better than before.
“Do not worry. Your family will be safe.”
The voice of the woman who had rescued her from Natasha’s terrible grip hummed in her ears.
“If we show up, run to this mansion without looking back. Until then, I will rescue your family and bring them back.”
“When… will you appear?”
A white, soft hand wrapped around Anne’s desperate grasping hand.
“When you feel like you can’t take it anymore.”
Recalling the voice, Anne let out a deep sigh and muttered.
“I think that is now… … … .”
‘When are you going to show up?’
Anne grabbed the door leading to the hallway and opened it, rubbing her cold hands with tension. And as soon as the door opened, she unknowingly stopped breathing and her eyes opened wide at the unfolding scene.
“….!”
The four knights guarding the hallway were lying on the floor at once.
And in the center stood the two people Anne had been waiting for.
A woman in a veil and Amor’s foreign minister.
Those two people.
“You just came out. There’s no one inside, right?”
“…oh, yes!”
“Leave the rest to us, and go.”
Asha gently pushed Anne’s back, who had been hesitating because she didn’t know what was going on.
“Hurry.”
‘Yes, I know nothing because I didn’t see anything.’
Anne ran down the hallway with her eyes closed, leaving the two of them behind. Anne’s neck was chilled throughout the run.
To Tanatos’ imperial family, it was certain that something was going to happen today.
Gillotti opened his eyes wide and ran out of the audience chamber.
“Ha, Your Majesty!”
When John, who was coming to pick up Gillotti saying that the banquet had to start, saw Gillotti’s face, he began to contemplate.
‘Oh, something must have happened!’
For some reason, he thought it was smooth these past few days, but it seems like something was about to happen again today.
“Where are you going? Your Majesty, it’s time to go to the banquet hall…!”
“Shut up, John! Shut up!”
John’s face became pale and tired in an instant at Gillotti’s roar and screams.
‘Oh my god, those eyes are when he is going to get someone’s head….!’
John hurriedly followed Gillotti with a tired expression on his face in an instant.
And with his hand gestures, he hurriedly urged the knights to follow him. Gillotti leapt forward to Natasha’s room.
And his eyes went wide at the sight unfolding before him.
The knights guarding Natasha were lying on the floor, and the tightly closed door was wide open.
“Natasha…..!”
Gillotti ran through the open door.
Naturally, Natasha, who should have been locked up in the room, was nowhere to be seen.
‘The b*tch ran away!’
Gillotti got angry and turned everything inside the room upside down.
“Find Natasha right now! Right now!”
“Your Majesty….!”
John also looked at the scene in the room belatedly and understood the situation.
John’s face, which seemed like it could no longer turn pale, collapsed in an instant.
‘Why now, Natasha is running away…… !’
The delegation, state guests, and nobles were all gathered in the banquet hall, waiting for the emperor who did not come.
John grabbed his stomach with trembling hands. When the stress reached its peak, it felt like his intestines were turning over.
“Ahhhh! What a dirty b*tch!!”
Gillotti, whose eyes were turned over, took a sword from a knight who followed him.
And to release the unresolved problem, he roared, tearing Natasha’s room to pieces with the sword.
Kwadang! Tang Tang!
As the whole room was filled with the torn quilt feathers and dust, Gillotti, who was exhaling a rough breath, turned around.
With trembling hands, John, who could not even say that he (Gillotti) should go to the banquet hall, hurriedly followed Gillotti and asked.
“Uh, where are you going?”
“……Isn’t it supposed to go hunting?”
The sound of his voice like scratching metal resounded in the dark, empty hallway.
Gillotti strode down the hallway with a terrifying appearance as he held the sword.
Clannnnnnnnk!
The sound of the sword being dragged on the floor creepily followed Gillotti.
John, looking at the emperor’s back with stunned eyes, saw a vision of blood splashing on the emperor’s white robe.
He closed his eyes tightly and followed the emperor.
No one had seen the blood yet, but somehow the smell of blood seemed to prick John’s nose.
***
A gaze was felt from somewhere.
Anna raised her head in surprise and looked around, then met the green eyes that were staring at her.
For some reason, her heart sank.
Anna naturally turned her head, trying not to hide her bewilderment, but her clenched fists were already wet with cold sweat.
Perso stood guard near the throne, in armor.
He looked so regal and dignified that he didn’t look like someone who had been injured, so Anna sighed in relief without realizing it.
‘…Did he detoxify?’
She tried not to look, but without realizing it, she glanced back at him.
She wondered if he was still looking at her, and as expected or unexpected, he didn’t take his eyes off Anna.
She could feel her body temperature rising just by him looking at her..
Perso Gertium did nothing, but Anna felt naked on the spot.
His gaze seemed to pierce her.
Her throat was dry. Anna drank all the cocktails she was holding at once and picked up another glass.
“Anna?”
“Oh, huh?”
“What’s the matter? Are you thirsty?”
“……Ugh, it’s a little hot.”
Anna fanned her hands while her face was blushing. Asha, who was watching Anna anxiously, caught the gaze of the giant man watching them from beyond, and she burst into laughter.
“You must be hot when he stares at you like that.”
“…is he still looking at me?”
“Still staring.”
‘A leech.’
Anna mumbled the nickname she had given him with her blushing face.
It seemed that everyone in this banquet hall would know that Persona Gertium was staring at a woman very tenaciously at this rate.
Anna looked at him after taking a deep breath and pouted her mouth silently.
“Look elsewhere.”
She shook her head and told him not to look, but whether he was ignorant or pretending not to be, he smiled softly as if he was rather pleased.
“He’s coming this way.”
Then, as if unable to bear it, Perso walked towards Anna.
“You must be crazy!”
Anna was startled and she took a step back.
Just as Anna turned her head to find a place to hide, the tightly closed door of the banquet hall opened wide.
“Your Majesty.”
The emperor, who did not appear even after a long wait, finally appeared in the banquet hall.
