                Catherine walks into Nostradamus room. She saw the way that Mary worries about his son and loved him. She needed to know that the prophecy. She need to know that if they married it would kill Francis. It was the only way to tore them apart. She saw in Mary's eyes that she would anything for his son and she had to appeal for that side.

- You need to told Mary about the prophecy. – Catherine de Medicis demands.

- Do you really thing that will work out? – He asks her politely. – You saw that Mary is not that easy to convince.

- That's why it will be you to told her. She will never doubt of you. – Catherine points out seriously. – Do it fast as you can and be sure that only her hears your prophecy. – She adds before leaving Nostradamus rooms.

                Francis met Olivia in her room. He smiles at her and she tries to approaches him but he took a step back and she stops.

- I just come here to say that I finally found you a new home. – Francis says looking seriously at her and saw her happy face turned into a angry one.

- What? – She asks really surprised.

- It's what I said... I found you a house in Val-de-Marne.

- I will not go! – Olivia says trying to kissing him. Francis grabs her arms and pull them away gently and moving away from her.

- Then there's nothing I can do for you. You can't stay here. – He declares seriously.

- You are sending me away? After all we've been through?

- I loved you but not anymore and I don't want you as my mistress or my wife. Accept it and go.

- You are evil as your mother. – Olivia attacks him with sharp words.

- I was being evil if I wasn't being honest with you. Accept that I love Mary, accept that nothing else is going to happen between us.

                Tears start to fall from Olivia's eyes and she turn is back on him in a act of pride. She knew that wasn't anything she could except accept that she had lost for the little queen. That wasn't any other option for her except accept what Francis was proposing her.

- I will go to Val-de-Marne. It's only the time to pack my things. – She says without falter. – Now, your highness, please go away. – She asks without turning avoiding look at his deep blue eyes. She only hear the door shout and she cried grabbing eiderdown to try to shut them out.
