Chapter 153
Aria saw a bouquet of flowers held by a maid. She quickly called the maid,
Where did you get the flower?
The maid stopped in astonishment.
Yes? Oh, Prince Sigren ordered me to throw it away, Your Highness.
Are these the flower hes personally received?
The maid didnt know why the princess was asking these questions, but she stuttered.
Oh, its not, Your Highness. There are the flowers that Lady Heilon received.
So her brother told the maid to throw away the flowers that Lady Fiona received. She had a rough idea of what it meant.
Are you going to throw it away now?
Yes? Act.. actually I think its such a waste to throw the pretty flower away.. So I was going to put it in the vase for few days.
The maid was afraid of being punished.
Give me that flower.
Aria looked closely at the flowers handed by the maid.
You know what?
Yes?
You shouldnt carry this around recklessly.
The maid trembled, wondering if it was such a precious flower.
Aria murmured. Ah, you also shouldnt burn this
She suddenly became curious. Did her brother know what kind of flower this was and told the maid to throw it away?
No, if he had known, wouldnt he try to to kill the man who ave the flower immediately?
Arias biological mother was well-versed in plants, and she as well grew herbs herself. It was the only hobby that her mother, who lived under the pressure of the empress, had. Because of that, Aria also learned a lot of things.
This cant be burnt, and its a waste to just throw it away.
In the end, Aria decided to handle the bouquet on her own.
Ill take this,
The maid bowed her head.
I understand, Your Highness.
Suddenly, Aria became curious. Who was the man who gave the flower to Lady Fiona?
That sister is going through a lot of hardships too.
The average person would not know, but this flower was a type of plant that could make some drugs.
**
I received a letter from Princess Aria.
Drug
What kind of madman gave me a bouquet like that?! I tried to remember the face of the person who gave me the flowers but to be honest, it was all blurry. It was all because I wasnt very interested at that time.
What was his intention? A mockery? The assumption that he gave it without knowing would be too easy. Rumors spread in secret that I had ruined the Green family, my original family. There were quite a few people who talked about that fact. So, that assumption was out of the window.
If I caught that person, I would not let go.
Right now, I didnt have the bouquet in my hand, and time has passed, so it cant be helped. I wanted to tell Sigren about things related to flowers, but it was hard to see his face these days.
In the past, he came to see me everyday.
I wanted to go see him, but I got a reply telling me not to come because he was busy. Was not even possible to see his face at all?
Celine, how should I interpret it when a guy who came to see often while ago suddenly replied that he was busy and didnt have time to meet? I asked sullenly.
It could be really busy, Celine replied calmly.
Any other reason?
She gently stroked my hair. Lady, there are many men in the world.
It would be better to answer straight away!
Has the feeling cooled down?
It occurred to me that I still have such a modem people thinking.
Even if you tell me not to come, why dont we go and see each other?
Celine asked seriously, Now, do you feel something strange about Prince Sigren?
I nodded seriously.
I didnt want to be this persistent. However, I truly felt that Sigrens behavior was strange. I wondered if something happened.
Yes.
Celine nodded her head.
Then you should go. Sometimes a womans intuition cannot be ignored.

Good behavior was my strength and weakness.
When I visited the palace, Sigen was not seen. It was the knights who were in the training ground that greeted me.
Greetings my lady, please go in and wait.
Is this okay?
The knights, whose faces were now quite familiar, grinned.
Its Lady Fiona, whats the problem?
It seemed that everyone didnt care because Sigren skipped all of the procedures when I came. At the same time, they silently agreed because their training time would be reduced because Sigren spent his time with me. These nobles.
However, while walking through the corridors of the palace, I ran into Sigren.
Fiona?
Sigren looked perplexed.
What the matter? Im busy.
Sir Kande Eres, who escorted me with his bored face, asked as if he was embarrassed.
Your highness? What are you talking about? Didnt you say that we have to let Lady Heilon in no matter what when she came?
I opened my eyes wide to the unexpected response.
Your highness, whats the matter
Only then did I find a woman behind Sigren. She was a very pretty woman with black hair. She looked familiar. It was a woman who sang at the ballroom the other day.
Ah, so they were together. What could I do anymore?
I couldnt think of a good reason for a woman to be at the imperial palace.
I smiled naturally. Not a genuine smile.
Looks like something happened.
Kane saw my face and said aaaaa
He made a noise and stepped back.
Sigren said calmly.
Lady Fiona, wait.
He grabbed my arm. And I obediently entered an empty room.
I crossed my arms.
You said you were busy?
Sigren avoided my eyes. Why was he avoiding me?
I was busy.
Sure.
.
How long did that lady stay in this palace?
If she just came by, or if he said it was a coincidence, Ill let it slide.
Regrettably, Sigren was honest about this.
Three days.
I couldnt believe that a very pretty lady stayed at the imperial palace for three days. Wasnt this the end of the game?
Sigren gave a great promise to the hypothesis that he was changing the genre. So was it a harem after all?
I narrowed my eyes.
Do you have anything to say to me?
First of all, its a misunderstanding.
This was saddening, but I knew, under these circumstances, all the lovers in this world would make an excuse.
Then tell me what is the misunderstanding.
Sigren brushed his hair roughly.
The empress brought that woman.
I know.
And she tried to shove her into the emperors bed-chamber. But we know what happened to the commoner woman who served on the emperors bed, right?
She will die.
I could roughly figure out why. A powerless womans life was at stake.
Then why did you lie to me and hide her?
The most disappointing thing was that,
that you lied.
tl/n: I dislike Sigren in this arc somehow.
