"Blond hair and purple eyes?"

"These are the words of eyewitnesses."

"So there is no black."

"Isn't this the child of the emperor?" Lily asked cautiously, turning to Lisa, whose face now reflected the bitter anticipation of the future.

"Maybe so, but this is all extremely suspicious."

It would seem that she should have been relieved that the boy does not have the emperor's blood. But Liza, on the other hand, sensed something was wrong.

A child of five or six years old.

If the child was not Raymond, that would mean that Ellie met a new man in the moment after the divorce.

Any outside observer would not have noticed the catch here. But Lisa thoroughly studied Ellie's habits.

And Lisa knew how much Ellie loved Raymond.

Maybe she knew Ellie's unrequited love even better than the emperor himself.

And now Ellie, that Ellie who has been running after Raymond all her life, met another man the day after the divorce?

This was hard to believe.

Blond hair, purple eyes.

Really not Raymond's child?

Lisa remembered the events six years ago.

"It's all strange, no matter how you look."

Even at that time, Lisa had doubts about Ellie's flighty departure.

As shocked as Edmund's appearance was, it was not yet a reason to divorce the whole monarch.

And Ellie so easily took off the Empress's robes, although she had loved Raymond so much all these years.

In addition, after the divorce, she immediately moved across the seas, as if fleeing from the plague.

If she wanted to hide from prying eyes, she could settle in any village.

However, she sailed away to distant lands.

Maybe her child was the reason?

The deeper Liza's thoughts advanced, the more the doubts deepened.

Her green eyes gleamed with threat.

"Lily."

"Yes Milady."

"We need to find out more precisely where her son came from."

"Yes."

Lily left, and Lisa, with a frozen face, cut the dead flower.

"We managed to find out something, but on the whole there is nothing strange about these papers."

Listening to Carter's report, Raymond did not react.

It's been two days since Ellie came to visit.

And all this time he and Carlisle did not leave his head.

He did not understand what he was eating, he did not feel that he was sleeping, he lived as if he were not alive.

"My child has nothing to do with your majesty."

These poisonous words spun tirelessly in his sick brain.

Her expression and eyes did not flinch at that moment.

It didn't sound like a lie, but he still didn't want to believe her.

It didn't matter if Jeremy was a dad or not, the very fact that a stranger was around drove him crazy.
