"You need my help?"

The Duke ridiculed Astelle, "You seem to have come to your senses now."

"I will soon become the Empress, and Theor will become Crown Prince, but there is no one to help me."

Astelle said frankly that she needed her father's help.

"Isn't the Emperor so into you?"

"How long will it last?"

Right now, Kaizen is obsessed with Astelle and doing whatever she wants, but Astelle doesn't know when Kaizen will change again.

The Duke of Reston clicked his tongue as if agreeing with Astelle.

"Well, it won't last long. He is too old now."

Fritz glared at his father, stunned.

Astelle beckoned him to remain still and then turned to the Duke.

"I asked His Majesty to make Fritz the Lord of the West."

"What? Why?"

The Duke, leaning on the back of the chair, was surprised and looked back at his son when he heard that the Emperor was going to give Fritz the position he should have.

"I asked him to return your position, but he didn't allow it. I had no choice but to ask him to appoint Fritz," Astelle explained.

Kaizen removed the Duke from the position of Lord of the West two years ago after he became embroiled in a rebellion in the North.

"Did he give his permission?"

"Yes, he promised."

"Good job."

The Duke looked at Astelle with eyes full of affection as if appreciating her.

Astelle's weakness was that she wasn't young anymore, but she was still quite beautiful.

She was still wearing a plain dress like a maid, but there was dignity in her beautiful face and her skinny body.

It was not unreasonable that Kaizen fell for Astelle.

However, it was surprising that he would return the position of the Lord of the West to the Reston family.

Kaizen has made every effort to destroy the Reston family.

But he changed his mind as easily as turning his palm over just because of Astelle's words.

'This turned out to be easier than I thought.'

The Duke said, "Okay. Trust this father of yours. I'll do anything for you and the prince."

"Thank you, father."

Astelle smiled as if touched.

'I'm sorry, but it's not going to go your way.'

Astelle had a clear picture of what her father was thinking.

However, Astelle had no intention of doing what her father wanted.

She could feel Fritz's gaze looking closely at this side.

Astelle blinked at him.

Fritz nodded as if understood.

The next day, as soon as I woke up after sleeping overnight, Kaizen sent an attendant to deliver a message.

I was told to take Theor to the temple.

"Already?"

I heard that the Theor would go through the verification process at the temple, but I didn't know he would go this early.
