“Doesn’t His Highness get angry these days?”

Louis asked casually whether the crown prince was angry with Rowena. The servant answered sincerely.

“I’m not in a position to see him up close… But recently, it’s been better.”

Is it a good thing?

If the prince’s temper was eased, Rowena may also be safe. Louis walked slowly along with the attendant who began to guide him again.

Stupid Rowena! I’d rather you have the prince’s child sooner than later. Then even the crown prince won’t kill you.

He didn’t know if it was a happy life for Rowena. But wasn’t it a reason to keep her alive anyway? Louis looked back in the direction of the main palace with a troubled face.

He thought it would be difficult to meet Rowena again today.

* * *

Lyria hadn’t been able to sleep for days. This had been the case ever since Anna, her maid of honor, told her news of Rowena.

I’m not sure, but it’s clear that my father did something.

When she saw the marquis’ furious face, at the news that Rowena was alive and being treated at the palace, Lyria was convinced of it.

She wanted to run to the palace immediately to make sure Rowena was safe, but the short freedom for a few days had disappeared again. The reason was Rowena’s case.

An assassin appeared in this capital to harm the prince’s future fiancee. He argued that security in the capital was poor. In a word, it was dangerous, so she couldn’t walk around outside.

Naturally, visiting Rowena in the palace became impossible. The marquis also restricted her outing to the palace, saying she could go to Rowena’s side and get caught up in a bunch of problems.

The only hope was that she could go to the temple once every two weeks and pray as before.

Will Rowena be okay?

According to Anna, the family of Count Adelia also seemed to be unaware of Rowena’s condition. Apparently, the crown prince had sent someone to take all of Rowena’s close employees.

Maybe he was worried about Rowena, who was being treated in an unfamiliar environment.

The prince’s extraordinary care was surprising. She felt sorry for misunderstanding him because she thought he might be the same person from the rumor.

Of course, even so, she had no intention of doing anything with Cecil. Because Lyria had Kian.

Are we supposed to go ahead with our plan?

Rowena was no longer in a position to join them in their escape, so they decided to run away on their own.

Concerned about them, Rowena wanted to help somehow, but she decided not to tell the crown prince to avoid problems.

She didn’t know how the prince would react.

Although he was sympathetic to Rowena, it was her business.

If Lyria, his ex-fiancee, ran away with a man, he could side with the Marquis of Wenson as the crown prince.

I haven’t even met Rowena to see if she’s okay… Can I run away like this?

They decided to meet at the temple and run away. It was possible because there was a priestess in the temple who became acquainted with Rowena.

Marquis Wenson thought it was “feminine” to go to the temple to pray, or there was no significant restriction on going to the temple. That’s why she was allowed to go out twice a month.

Kian first left the count estate, and on a fixed date he was to meet Lyria and run away with her.

Since his resignation date had already been set, she thought that no one would know that they both fled together.

In the meantime, if the Marquis of Wenson did not allow her to go out to the palace, Lyria would be separated forever without meeting Rowena.

“Rowena…”

Lyria called her friend’s name out of pity. It couldn’t have been this miserable to be unable to go out as one wishes.

* * *

Among the many employees who were called to the Imperial Palace, Kian was not involved. It was because he had to leave the Count’s house soon after his contract period ended.

As Rowena married the crown prince, Kian intended to leave the Count’s residence earlier than planned.

There was no reason to delay, as Rowena was not with him.

I’d better not count on her help.

The crown prince seemed to love Rowena very much, but Kian did not believe in the minds of the powerful. In addition, the crown prince was well known for his cruelty.

She was a girl who would help them no matter what the situation. Kian didn’t want to burden Rowena, who was already in a difficult situation. It was right to do this from the beginning.

Kian first disappeared, then saw the opportunity and intended to take Lyria away. The area Rowena had chosen was easy for Kian to avoid the eyes of the Marquis of Wenson, so he was going to go there and marry Lyria.

It would be difficult to work as a knight because he could not get Rowena’s recommendations or guarantees. So he decided to be a mercenary there. A mercenary with a letter of recommendation from a noble family could receive a quest at a better price.
