How To Hide Emperor's Child

Chapter 16

Vellian came down the stairs and found Astelle standing at the end of the corridor.

Astelle was having a conversation with the emperor's servant.

Since it was far away, he could only see the side view, but her calm and elegant face was pale.

Vellian approached her in surprise.

"Lady Astelle?"

As he approached to see what had happened, Astelle turned back one breath late.

Astelle smiled calmly at Vellian.

"Oh, Count. Nice to meet you again."

The face looking back slowly wasn't different from usual.

It wasn't pale at all.

'Did I see it wrong?'

As he turned to the servant, the middle-aged servant quickly explained the situation.

"His Majesty took Young Master Theor to the hunting lodge, and I was talking about it to Lady Astelle now."

"What?"

'The child? Why?'

The hunting lodge was a remote place in the middle of the forest.

The forest was so wide that the hunting lodge was built in case the emperor couldn't return to the castle during hunting.

Even if he thought about it roughly, it wasn't a good place to go with a child.

Besides, Kaizen wasn't particularly fond of children.

'Why did you do such a weird thing all of a sudden?'

Vellian, feeling the doubt, looked at Astelle standing quietly and found the answer.

'No way, was it because of her?'

Astelle, standing silent, asked Vellian, "Count, how long does the hunting lodge take from here?"

"If you go on horseback as soon as possible, you will get there in an hour."

One hour.

If I leave right now, can I be on time?

Even if he left as quickly as possible, the effect of the potion would soon wear off.

The tip of her fingers trembled.

Astelle hid her trembling fingers under the hem of her long sleeves and turned her gaze back to Vellian.

You should never show concern in front of this man.

Astelle did not show a tense appearance and tried hard to maintain a calm expression.

Don't be panic.

I'm not sure what will happen yet.

"As I said before, the child got sick of the flu some time ago......"

Astelle spoke calmly with an unshakeable smile.

"He should take medicine on time."

"Oh yeah, you said it before."

When young children are ill, they sometimes continue to take physical supplements or nutritional supplements for a month to two months.

"I'm not in a hurry, but can I come to the hunting lodge and give him some medicine?"

Vellian looked at Astelle with a little surprise.

In this weather, it can rain at any moment.

In this situation, she wanted to go to the hunting lodge and give the child some medicine.
