Cruel Emperor Contract Deposits
the Emperor Cristoffer's

After spending time with Ava. Emperor Cristoffer headed to the hall. He's gonna talk about his marriage to Ava.

There were some nobles who refused including the Father of the Empress, he gave some reason for Emperor Cristoffer to abandon his intentions.

"Baginda, Ava comes from the lower classes. He won't help the politics of this palace." Said one of the nobles.

"Right, Your Majesty, you better undo His Majesty's intentions." Said Duke Arnof, Father of Empress Berlia. Ever since he got the letter from his daughter, misgivings have always haunted him.

"What if I adopt Miss Ava?" ask a middle-aged man.

All the nobles turned their heads towards him, including Emperor Cristoffer.

"How's Sire? I think this is His only way." Connect again. He's Duke Rostaf who's been seeing Ava. Before the previous Emperor died, he always advised to take care of His Majesty Emperor Cristoffer, his son whom he loved.

Cruelty in the struggle for the throne and politics, sometimes have to sacrifice our loved ones. Therefore, he did not want Emperor Cristoffer to lose his love. What's more since Ava's arrival, he finds the old Emperor Cristoffer always friendly and smiling.

Like getting a golden opportunity, Emperor Cristoffer nodded. "All right, I'll talk to Ava about it." Emperor Cristoffer immediately left. Leaving behind all the nobles who were throwing fierce gazes at each other.

"Don't forget, there's still the Empress." Duke Arnof.

"And don't forget His heart wants Miss Ava to be his Queen." Duke Rostaf said he left the room with the other nobles who supported him. For so long he waited for a girl who would change the vices of Emperor Cristoffer and lucky Ava to come to the life of Emperor Cristoffer, he was grateful at least at the age of no longer young wife and child, he was grateful, and the previous Emperor and empress smiled from above the sky and supported him.

"Huh, I miss him." He continued his footsteps towards the resting place.

Otherside.

Emperor Cristoffer sees Ava relaxing with her father. A cup of tea and biscuits in front of him. Once in a while Ava threw her smile, it seemed like they were discussing something that made Ava laugh freely.

"Sheel." Sir Archid bowed respectfully.

Ava stood up she gave her respect.

"Duke Ronaf will adopt you."

Ava scrunched her forehead, not understanding what Emperor Cristoffer meant.

"This is for the sake of keeping politics and also your supporters. Duke Ronaf's power is no less powerful than Duke Arnof."

"You mean, you have to leave Dad?"

"Bu-not so Ava, I just."

"I don't want to." Reply Ava briefly.

"Truly Ava you need a strong supporter." Master Archid, he understood that everyone who would become the wife of an Emperor was no ordinary noble. "Even if you're adopted, that doesn't mean you're leaving Dad, son."

Ava was silent, she had a tough decision. He didn't want to hurt his only father.

"If you don't want to, I'll find another way." Emperor Cristoffer understood Ava's uneasiness. He didn't want Ava to be sad either. It was enough of her past that made Ava reject her several times. What's more now he has to melt Ava's heart. And again, Ava has never said that she loves him.

"Don't make Ava's situation worse."

"Alright I'll accept the terms, but I don't want to leave my father."

"And you also have Ava's duty, love Duke Ronaf as much as you love Dad. He now has no one, his wife and son have left."

Ava nodded, confirming her father's words. He should be grateful too. Duke Ronaf wants to help him.

"Alright, I have to take care of the file." Emperor Cristoffer passed away, got a few steps back he pulled Ava's arm to come with him.

Mr. Archid and Auntum who saw him chuckled, as well as being happy. Luckily Ava was loved by Emperor Cristoffer.
