A Fake Concubine Was Caught by the Tyrant

Chapter 32

“Sigh….”

“Your Highness… Why do you look so serious?”

Ellie seemed to have no idea about how serious this situation was.

How could she say that they were about to die because the Emperor was threatening their lives?

Helen gave up on her desire to speak as she was speechless and only fidgeting on her own.

She swept away Ellie’s hair that came out with her fragile hand.

“I will protect you.”

I couldn’t protect him, but if it’s you….

Helen adamantly vowed to herself. She couldn’t let Ellie die because of the sins which were committed by her.

Therefore, she had to confess. She had to confess and apologize for what she had done.

She should have accidentally told her about his secret before they both got killed.

Then Ellie would leave her.

“Ellie, you don’t know anything. Understand?”

Helen pressed the end of her words as if demanding her to answer.

As she continued to demand an answer, Ellie nodded.

“Yes, Your Highness. I’ll do that.”

She didn’t know what her master was planning to do when she said so, but Helen’s face seemed slightly relaxed when she answered that way.

Helen was so pretty as her eyes bent slightly when she had a thin smile on her face.

Just like her shining blonde hair, there was a twinkle in her eyes everytime she smiled which led to her thinking there were indeed stars in her eyes.

“Thank you.”

Helen buried her head on Ellie’s shoulder like a pampered kid.

Even though it was her first time to touch her master like this, Ellie hugged Helen as if it was natural for her to do that.

Helen felt a deep sense of relief in Ellie’s assuring embrace. And the sense of responsibility inside her grew bigger.

‘I’ll definitely protect you.’

The thought of not being able to help the man made her heart ache, forming another guilt in her already shattered heart.

People became unfortunate whenever they met her.
