I clenched my trembling fingers into a fist.

"Our enemy?"

Sios was the first to come to mind.

Not that it came as a surprise to me.

I just didn't know how soon they would find out my past and Carlisle's existence.

I may have slipped misinformation on Raymond, but not the Marquis Sios.

I was ashamed of my omission, but now all that was left was to take action.

If they wonder if Carlisle is of royal bloodline, things will go awry for us.

Lisa did not become empress, and Edmund's position was precarious. If right now the light falls on the true prince, Edmund will lose all legitimacy.

"And this someone thought the same thing as I did," he said with a kind of impatient air.

"If they want to sniff out something, I will not stand still."

"I will help."

"Yes? What does it mean?"

He took a step towards me.

Raymond took a deep breath and looked down at me.

Will you tell me something funny or will we just stand there? When I was about to throw such a question at him, his lips moved.

"Go back to the palace."

What else?

I came to my senses and asked, as if struck by lightning.

"What did you just say?"

"I said to return to the empress's residence and sit on the throne again."

I thought I heard it.

Return to the palace. Become an Empress.

It was more shocking than saying that he would drag Carlisle to the temple.

Until now, I could not imagine that in my life I would still hear something like that.

If it weren't for his determined face, I would have thought I was dreaming this.

But why? Words fell out of my mouth before I could even think about them:

"Have you lost your mind?"

It was a rude remark that no one would have dared to give to the emperor, but now I didn't care.

I couldn't think of any other words besides this.

"My mind is stronger than ever. Bring back to life as an empress. We need each other."

Raymond responded to me without a trace of embarrassment, as if my previous reaction had been as expected.

His calm voice created the illusion that everything that was happening was unreal.

"I'll pretend I didn't hear it."

How could he tell me that if he wasn't out of his mind?

We're already divorced.

No, first of all, I had Carlisle in my arms, and now I have other things to do.

He even thought that my son was not his child, but he planned my return anyway? If he's not crazy, what's wrong with him?

I spoke, once again drawing a line:

"Your Majesty, I have a child. Even if I return, I am not going to abandon the child and become an empress again."
