Special Chapter: IBTMITL

Chapter 281.5

"You're late, Chanton."

Perez said this while looking out the window as the rain was pouring down.

It's already been a long time since darkness fell.

With only a few lights on, a dark shadow fell on his face.

"There was an accident on the way here."

"An accident?"

"Yes."

A short answer was all, but Perez looked at Chanton Sushou with cold eyes.

A few years ago, he resigned himself as the commander of the Imperial Knights and never spoke useless words.

"Is it something I should know?"

"I hit a drunken passerby with a carriage, and when I checked the woman's identity, it turns out that she is Lombardi's illegitimate child."

At the words of Chanton Sushou, Perez twisted the corners of his mouth.

It was today that he finally succeeded in closing Lombardi's door.

So he thought Lombardi's name would never be heard again.

It was like Lombardi, who was persistent until the end.

"Did Viege Lombardi have an extramarital affair?"

"It is said that she is the illegitimate child of his younger brother, Gallahan Lombardi, not Viege."

"I haven't heard of Viege having a younger brother other than Laurels."

Perez said, remembering Lombardi's ruthless second son.

"The third son of Lulac Lombardi, he seems to have died a long time ago. The illegitimate child's name is Florentia Lombardi.

"Stop."

Perez stopped Chanton Sushou's report with a single gesture.

"I don't have to know that. Please compensate the bereaved family well."

"It seems that she was living alone in downtown Lombardi without any ties, so I don't think we need to worry about the compensation."

"Then that's even better. Even with the fall of Lombardi, an illegitimate child was in a carriage accident that escaped great anger. It seems like the subject is the same as the life and death of the family."

With those words, Perez finally expressed his feelings about Lombardi's illegitimate child.

Instead, he got up from the chair he was sitting on and asked Chanton Sushou.

"Is there any change in your decision to go?"

"I'm just grateful that you gave me a chance to see the end of Angenas with my own eyes."

Perez took the lead, nodding silently.

His footsteps quickly passed through the dimly lit corridors of the Imperial Palace and entered the illuminated road of the Imperial Palace.

However, only a sound of desolate rain flowed between the two men.

Upon arriving at the destination, Perez paused for a moment and admired the view of the Empress Palace.

He was very satisfied with the appearance of the Empress Palace, with all the lights turned off and no one coming and going, just like its owner.

Thud, thud.

The sound of two wet footsteps echoed through the corridors of the Empress Palace, but no one blocked them or welcomed them.

The palace should be left empty except for the two knights guarding outside the bedroom where the Empress is imprisoned.
