The Love Square [HIATUS]

Chapter 34

"The Viscount Won't Be Able To Get A Trial, Your Majesties." Dutchess Tuania Said In A Worried Tone. "What Do You Mean? Why Not?" Navier Asked.

"This Wouldn't Have Anything To Do With Rashta's Pregnancy, Would It?" Navier Continued. "It Is Indeed Because She Is Pregnant His Child. I'm Told His Majesty's Plans To Treat This Case As Treason, Citing The Fact That His Child Was In Danger." Dutchess Tuania Said.

It's Because He Can Execute The Viscount In A Certain Way.

I Then Held Dutchess Tuania's Hands As I Listened To Her, She Then Sighed. "Viscount Landre Is An Honest Young Man. He Would Never Do A Such Thing For No Reason Simply Because He Lost His Temper. I Know That It's Unforgivable To Stab Someone Even If You're Blinded By Rage." Dutchess Tuania Then Started Tearing Up. "But He Should At Least Get A Trial..."

"...So He Can Explain Himself And The Jury Can Take It Into Consideration!" Dutchess Tuania Cried Out I Then Patted Her Back. "We Were Planning To Talk To The Viscount Anyway. I Also Think That Doesn't Add Up About This Incidence." The Dutchess Then Looked At Us With A Questioning Look. "?"

"We Suspect That It Was Rashta Who Tried To Tarnish Your Reputation." I Said. "Then The Rumors Are True?" The Dutchess Asked Us.

"We'll Need To Ask The Viscount For The Details." Navier Said And Took Out Her Handkerchief And Gave It To Dutchess Tuania. "We Can't Go And Visit The Viscount Right Now As My Brother Is Interrogating Him, But We Imagine That The Interrogation Will Be Over Soon, Since He Doesn't Plan To Let Him Have A Trial...I'll Go And See Him After The Interrogation Is Over, So Don't Worry." I Said, Navier Then Looked At Me. "I Thought That We'll Both Go And See The Viscount After The Interrogation?" I Then Sighed. "I Cannot Let You, Because You Are The Empress And I Have The Privilege To Visit The Viscount, And Sadly You Don't Have That Privilege...Cause I Am The One Who Handle's This Kind Of Situation In This Empire." I Said In A Serious Tone. "Thank You."

"Thank You, Your Majesties." Dutchess Tuania Thanked.

"May I Hold Onto This Handkerchief?" She Asked. "Yes, You May." Navier Said. "Even If The Viscount Cannot Be Saved, I Will Make Sure To Repay You Both One Day For Showing This Kindness." Dutchess Tuania Said.

"No, There's No Need To Thank Us Dutchess." I Said. "This Is Not A Debt That Needs To Be Repaid." Navier Continued. "No, It Means A Lot To Me That..." Dutchess Tuania Looked At Us Both. "...You Both Are Helping Me In My Hour Of Need." She Continued.

"May I Embrace You Both, Your Majesty And Highness?" Dutchess Tuania Asked, I Then Just Hugged Her And Navier Did The Same. "There, There Don't Worry..." I Patted Her Back.

"..."

Suddenly The Dutchess Patted Our Backs. "...!" She Then Just Smiled At Us, She Stood Up And Curtsy'd She Then Left.

[ Morning ]

"His Majesty Your Brother The Emperor, Sentenced Viscount Landre To Death."

"I See..." I Then Left And Goe'd To Where The Prisoners Are Kept.

I Then Approached Viscount Landre. "Your Highness-- ugh--"

Viscount Landre Then Goe'd To The Bars. "Please Accept My Sincere Apologies, Your Highness. Haha...I Know I Should Bow To Your Highness, But I'm Having Trouble Getting Up."

"You Don't Need To, Viscount Landre. I Accept Your Apologies But, Sovieshu Doesn't." I Said With A Sad Look.

Why Is He Smiling?
