Capitulo 81

Episode 81

I quickly shook my head.

Marquis Hunt and the Prince of Gloucester were the vanguard of the aristocratic faction.

As the relationship between Aster and I progressed, Duchess Pioneer practically became closer to the imperial faction, and the Senate was in balance.

«And there’s the Duke of Malphyrion on the neutral side.»

Perhaps the success or failure of the neutral faction will be determined by how many families can be brought here.

It must be approved by a majority. You and some of the families will be on your side, but that may not be enough.

You don’t have to worry about that.

I still have cards left that I haven’t used yet.

It’s time to get the real deal from Daniel.

* * *

Aster said he would bring up the agenda without saying much.

My father was very happy with my plan and promised to support me.

Earl Chase, who was a neutralist, also had trouble joining forces, thankfully he found Robert and I gave him back to the Earl.

Finally, it was the day of the elders’ meeting.

I moved back and forth from my place for fear of the unknown.

For one thing, it took quite a while.

Late in the evening.

My father opened the door to the living room with a tired face and walked in.

I, who was waiting for Fio, jumped out of my seat.

How did it go?

Of course it will happen.

Then why are you so late?

Father sighed and sat down on the sofa.

The servant brought a glass of water and my father emptied it before we started talking.

There was only one person representing the Prince of Gloucester, Andrew.

However, he went on a business trip to a faraway place a few days ago, and it was Tatiana who introduced herself.

How absurd. I don’t know what the hell is wrong with her.

What did she do?

They said you were going to embezzle the royal family’s money. Remembering that Robert, with whom you work, had previously been accused of embezzlement. And he strongly desired a new investigation.

There was no laughter.

Knowing all about the truth, Allison even became his doctor on the condition that she concealed it.

So what did you decide to do?

Her Majesty has already dismissed the case of not being able to reinvestigate because it had been investigated previously.

It is said that everyone agreed with Aster’s words.

And it was put to a vote, and with a majority in favor, the establishment of the Imperial Medical Center was confirmed.

After that, he was so upset. It was to the point that the faces of everyone present hardened.

My father shook his head.

There was no disturbance, just the woman shouting for a new vote to be taken and involving Daniel. Even when I looked at him, I thought that damn bastard was pitiful.

After he finished talking like that, my father said he was tired and went upstairs.

I stayed in my seat, twisting Fio’s fluffy hair as he dozed and mused.

Tatiana can’t back down from here.

She will definitely stay no matter what she plans to do.

I quickly called the butler and sent someone to Count Chase.

Go and tell him not to leave tomorrow. Contact Professor Foreman and tell him to pay more attention to security tomorrow.

Even after the butler left, I fell into my thoughts for a long time.

I had an ominous feeling.

Fu3 the next morning.

Once again, what I was worried about happened.

When I woke up in the morning, my father opened the newspaper and shouted.

That crazy woman did her job!

Did she?

Look at this article.

A newspaper my father handed me contained Robert’s name, his embezzlement charges, and an article accusing him of returning to the medical profession with the Duke’s help.

Perhaps they will attack you and his majesty with this. The aristocrats would probably be thrilled to have gotten the message.

His Majesty will not be stopped.

It gave Aster a good opportunity to stomp on the Grand Duke.

I stood up.

As long as this happens, we also have to open an incident on our side.

Tatiana ignored the warning that I wouldn’t stand still on this side either.

Now that we’ve mentioned previous embezzlement cases, it’s time to reveal everything.

* * *

I got into a carriage and went to see Aster.

When I sent a request to meet him in a hurry in the morning, I received a reply asking me to come and see him immediately.

I deliberately got into an ordinary carriage and entered through the side door instead of the front door.

It was because I didn’t want to feed the reporters for anything in the yard.

I went through the side door, put on my hat properly and got out of the carriage.

Avoiding the gaze of the people, I met the head servant.

Following his lead, I entered the inner palace. Thanks to the memories of the last time, I was able to act without being clumsy.

The leaves, which were dark green at that time, now have a variety of colors.

Her Majesty, the princess has come to visit.

And the servant avoided the place.

Aster, who was sitting in the chair next to the table and waiting for me, stood up.

I have been waiting.

I’m sorry, Your Majesty. I had no idea that the Grand Duchess would go this far.

Aster waved her hand at my words.

You don’t have to worry too much. Because I thought, if I had seen the commotion yesterday, it would be more than that.

A shadow fell over his face as he said that.

Aster, who rubbed his cheek with his hand as if he was tired of just imagining it, let out a long sigh.

Is he that serious?

Needless to say. After voting that day, when he learned that Duke Malphyrion had voted in favor, there was no reason for him to burst into tears and scream. She even slapped Duke Malphyrion on the cheek….

I covered my mouth in surprise.

I couldn’t believe that woman would do something stupid in a place like that.

In fact, Madame Malphyrion saw the scene and even declared that she would sue.

It was getting harder and harder.

Using violence for not having the same opinion as you in public.

Perhaps, the article was published to inquire about the dispute with the Duke of Malphyrion.

Anyway, our work is more urgent than those people. What was the way you thought about it in the letter?

Because I did some research on the embezzlement case.

An investigation?

I nodded.

As if to say more, Aster folded his arms and sank deep into the chair.

I told him everything from Robert’s work to Professor Foreman’s family affairs, holding nothing back.

As the story continued, Aster’s face hardened.

She is such an amazing woman. I thought she had great power because she became the Grand Duchess.

The magic in the air responded to her anger and the temperature rose slightly.

It’s nothing more, and even touching on the subject of human trafficking is way over the line.

Is there any hard evidence?

I recently caught the person involved and filed a complaint.

I also turned over all the documents containing the information I had gathered.

Aster turned the paper over as he made a printout and checked the contents.

It was proof that he would lead Tatiana perfectly with no escape.

Why didn’t you tell me?

It’s true that Professor Foreman actually embezzled. He will probably have to leave the academy when all this is revealed.

After all, it happened a few years ago, and it did, so I hope it will pass quietly.

Aster sighed and muttered.

You’re kind to those around you.

I think this happened because of me, so I’m not sorry for anything.

When I think of Niveia’s incident not long ago, I still smile.

If possible, I would like to throw Tatiana and Raymond into the fire.

You have to give back what you received. There will be some sacrifices.

A bitter emotion appeared on Aster’s face when he said that.

In the early days of his rise, he also lost many aides due to his weak power.

When he took control of the army and his power stabilized, he relentlessly wielded the sword of revenge.

Numerous families who were hostile to him disappeared.

However, he could not take revenge on all of them, so he had to look at the remaining families as thorns.

I felt guilty for not being able to protect my people because of my weakness.

Let’s give him a good chance.

When I purposely raised my voice, Aster laughed in response.

It was a time when we needed a proper revenge so that the people around us would no longer be harmed.

* * *

Aster and I quietly prepared ourselves for work.

In the past, the media had been biting and tearing noisily.

Professor Foreman resigned from the academy and Robert was living quietly within his family.

The person who most could not do this or that was the president of the Academy.

Every day he sent letters to my father and Aster asking for help.

y…

Miss!

Lily opened the door and rushed in with a newspaper in one hand.

A, here, look at the article.

She opened the paper that was handed to me from Lily.

It was the paper that had featured articles about the alliance between Duke Pioneer and the Academy until yesterday.

[The Prince of Gloucester, was found to be connected to a group of traffickers.]

I glanced at the contents slowly, looking at the engraved letters.

It detailed the circumstances of the purchase of Professor Foreman’s family by a servant, who worked in the Grand Duke’s household.

In addition, Eric’s emotional interview was also kindly included.

-I had an urgent need for money, so I hit the bottom that it really wasn’t worth it. I was trying to replenish the debt someday when I had paid off all my debtors, but….

Even an interview about how difficult the last few years have been.

Maybe Eric will be stripped of his professorship, but he will gain people’s sympathy.

Even if he had to pay for his crimes and go to the hospital, there seemed to be little reaction.

Now all we had to do was wait for Allison’s reaction, knowing all the facts.
