How To Hide Emperor's Child

Chapter 72

Kaizen was showing a friendly smile, but his red eyes looking at Astelle were as cold as ice.

He said with a smile, "I'll help you with the ball."

"Yes?"

Astelle looked up in surprise.

Kaizen, not losing his smile, looked at her and said, "Two siblings fighting over such a good thing. I have a good idea. Let the ball of the late Duchess be held in the imperial palace. So you two don't have to worry too much."

The siblings exchanged glances hastily.

Fritz said in a polite tone, "Thank you, Your Majesty, but this is our family tradition—"

"If it's all about a charity party, wouldn't it be better to be held more grandly in the imperial palace?"

Kaizen glanced back at Astelle and added, "Besides, you can't even discuss the ball because of Theor, so it's okay to do it in the imperial palace."

"Your Majesty, I......"

As Astelle tried to refuse, Kaizen turned to her.

Astelle was speechless by his cold gaze.

Kaizen glared at her and gave her a gentle smile.

"You'd better attend. It's okay to take Theor along too."

Astelle said nothing.

As soon as Kaizen returned, Astelle ran to the garden.

She found her grandfather, the Marquis of Carlenberg, who was walking in the garden.

"Do you know how to sneak out of the capital?"

"What are you talking about all of a sudden? Why......?"

After taking a walk while looking around the garden, the marquis was surprised to see the pale Astelle.

Only after seeing her grandfather's reaction did Astelle realize that she was shaking and her face must be pale.

"Follow me this way."

After that, the marquis took Astelle's hand and headed towards the end of the garden.

There was a small gazebo at the end of the garden.

Usually placed in the garden of a large mansion, the gazebo was a splendid place adorned with elaborate gold ornaments.

The gazebo in this mansion was as beautiful as other gazebos.

However, there was one singularity that was not found in other gardens.

It was that water flowed all day on one side of the gazebo.

An endless stream of water fell down from the eaves of the dome.

The water flowed non-stop all day long.

As if one side of the gazebo was covered with a transparent wall.

It was a mysterious form, but in reality, it was just a water supply connected to the top of the roof so that it could flow down.

The marquis took Astelle there.

As soon as she entered the gazebo, Astelle noticed why her grandfather had brought her here.

'The sound of water......'

Upon entering the gazebo, she felt as if she had entered a waterfall.

The sound of flowing water interrupted the surrounding sound.
