Park Jin Young spent days at home thinking about how to kill Ji Hoon without witnesses.
Princess Ji Hoon sat by the window and the sunlight shone on her grey hair strands. In the past, she would pluck her grey hair, but she knew there was no need to anymore.
Princess Ji Hoon heard the door open, she raised her head and she was surprised to see Park Jin Young as much as she was surprised to see flowers blossomed during autumn.
A few nights ago most of the maids and servants ran away from the Park Manor. Only the older maids and servants stayed because there was nowhere else for them to serve. So the Park Manor was quiet enough for a door creak to sound loud.
Park Jin Young threw the edict of the emperor in front of Ji Hoon. "It's the emperor's edict, you can kill yourself."
"Why should I?" Princess Ji Hoon asked. "Didn't the emperor ask you to kill me?"
"You should have killed yourself long ago!" Park Jin Young said.
"Why should I die before you?" Princess Ji Hoon said.
Park Jin Young didn't want to admit he would be killed after Ji Hoon died. "I told you, I'm not going to die with you!"
Princess Ji Hoon laughed coldly.
Park Jin Young regretted he couldn't kill someone with his own hands. "If you kill yourself, I'll take care of your bastard child."
Princess Ji Hoon prolonged ingesting the bottle of poison because her heart wasn't at ease about Park Sang-Hee.
Princess Ji Hoon didn't get a chance to accept Park Jin Young's bribe, an old maid entered the chamber.
"Master, fifth prince's wife is here," the old maid said.
Park Jin Young ignored the resentment in Ji Hoon's eyes.
"It's your choice," Park Jin Young said and left the chamber.
Seorin was surprised at the quiet and dirty state of the Park Manor. It was different from the first day she arrived at the Park Manor four years ago. That day the arrogant Princess Ji Hoon and Sang-Hee waited for her at the entrance of the Park Manor. Afterward for four years, Princess Ji Hoon and Sang-Hee always reminded her that she was eating and living in their home.
