Astelle stayed in the mansion for several days after Theor returned, waiting for her maternal grandfather.
Kaizen wanted Astelle to enter the Empress Palace immediately, but Astelle wanted to stabilize Theor's position first.
The most important thing was to properly maintain the palace before entering the Empress Palace.
Astelle paid a lot of attention to choosing Theor's bedroom and residence.
Astelle wrote down a detailed order and handed it over to Hannah.
"Give it to Vellian."
"Yes, Lady Astelle."
Hannah could get in and out of the Imperial Palace with ease.
The maids to be brought to the Empress Palace were chosen by Hannah herself.
Most of them were maids who used to serve the Empress Dowager.
In the meantime, time flew by.
When the preparation to enter the Imperial Palace was over, the Marquis arrived at the mansion.
"Grandpa!"
As soon as the Marquis arrived, Theor ran to him.
He had a bandage on his left arm.
He looked into Astelle's worried eyes and said quickly, "Don't worry. It's not serious."
Theor, who was in his grandfather's arms, asked as he looked at his injured arm, "Grandpa, are you hurt?"
"Grandpa is fine. What about you, Theor?"
"I'm not hurt. I'm okay."
The Marquis took Theor's teddy bear out of his luggage.
"I brought your doll."
"Levin!"
Theor took the old teddy bear and held it in his arms.
"Theor, Grandpa must be tired from coming a long way."
When Astelle blinked as if giving instructions, Hannah took Theor outside.
Astelle went into her room with her grandfather.
He said it wasn't serious, but her grandfather's wound was worse than she thought.
His left arm could not move and he had a scar on the back of his head.
The Marquis sighed as Astelle looked at his injured arm.
"I should have protected Theor no matter what. It's pathetic to be old."
"Don't say that. I'm glad you weren't badly hurt."
It was heartbreaking to see her maternal grandfather injured.
It looked like she was about to cry, but she held it back.
If she cried in front of her grandfather, he would feel even more guilty.
"I decided to take Theor to the Imperial Palace."
Astelle explained the situation to her grandfather.
"......that's how it happened."
After hearing Astelle's explanation, the Marquis sighed long.
"Are you okay?"
"It's better than letting Theor go there alone."
Astelle spoke very calmly, but there was a painful look in her eyes.
However, she immediately regained composure.
If she shows signs of sadness with her grandfather in front of her, her grandfather would be even sadder. Because Astelle had to go through an unwanted marriage and was forced to return to the Imperial Palace.
