Last Queen
10
10 Minutes later, the Cathal Emperor returned to his study. His face is now more and more unsettled.
Claire was not convinced that the Emperor had such a reaction.
"why come back ?" ask Claire to the Emperor.
"we go home, I'm tired" said the Emperor. "Prime Minister, your duty is to continue the work" the Emperor operative told Julio Aiden.
"Emperor impudent, I ask for a leave next month and must be granted !"
The Emperor replied with a wave of his hand without looking at Prime Minister Julio.
Claire and the Cathal Emperor return to the main castle. Some of the Emperor's servants and Empress' servants were already waiting in the courtyard.
The Emperor seemed silent but his sharp gaze made everyone who accidentally looked at him would be frightened.
When getting out of the car, both were prevented by Princess Irene. Irene stared at Claire. Claire did not bother.
"what's Princess Irene doing ?" the Cathal Emperor asked with his breath held.
The Emperor's collar is now uncomfortable. His body also reacted uncomfortably to this situation. Several times he loosened his tie.
"Emperor, I go in first" Claire said.
Claire let go of the powerful Emperor's hand. The Emperor's grasp grew stronger as Irene blocked out. Claire's not comfortable. There's obviously something Claire doesn't want to know.
Let the problems of these two couples settle their affairs. Claire had promised her affairs only as Empress and raised the rank of her family without the need to think about the affairs of the previous Emperor couple.
"No Beib. You stay with me" prevent the Cathal Emperor. The atmosphere is increasingly uncomfortable for the Emperor "if there is no business please return to your mansion, Princess" closed the Emperor.
The Emperor immediately took Claire and left Princess Irene in the main castle courtyard.
"Emperor, is it okay to leave Princess Irene on page ?" ask the Emperor's aide.
There's a pause of a few seconds. The Emperor was silent but Claire could feel the tightness in the Emperor's chest. The right hand of the Emperor who was holding Claire was removed.
The emperor took off his tie and turned his body.
Bugs
The Emperor's hand successfully floated onto the aide's cheek.
Everyone who saw the incident was shocked. No exception Claire. Surprised Claire shut her mouth with both hands.
"i'm trying to rest, no one's going to be noisy"
The Emperor took Claire back and walked towards his room.
The emperor took off his shirt and changed to a more comfortable home shirt. Claire just looked silently.
Claire sat on the edge of the bed watching the Emperor. The emperor was now sitting in the front seat of their bed.
"don't want to explain to me ?" ask the Emperor to Claire.
Claire panic. What he had to explain to the Emperor. Which point is his fault.
"what do you want to hear ?" ask Claire guess.
"Well, didn't you meet your ex-boyfriend in my room ?" ask the Emperor in a higher tone.
Claire understands now. Was the Emperor angry since it was just Claire's business with Arthur ?
"i did not meet the Emperor" Claire replied in a gentle tone, trying to appease the Emperor whom she still did not know.
"he entered my room when I left" said the Emperor.
Claire smiled at the Emperor's behavior, which made her unsettled just because of Arthur.
Claire walked to the seat next to the Emperor. Gently grasped the Emperor's hand. Thankful the Emperor did not refuse.
"i didn't meet him, maybe when he came into your room I was going to the bathroom"
"unreasonable reason"
Claire let go of her grasp, the Cathal Emperor stared intently at Claire as if to ask her why she had let go of her grasp.
But Claire kept releasing and walked towards the nightstand and took something from inside her bag.
"i was checking this earlier, if you don't believe you can smell it, there hasn't been an hour so the smell must still be felt" Claire explained and handed the rectangular object to the Emperor.
The Emperor accepted it and saw what Claire handed over.
"What ?! this is real ?"
It is a pregnancy test.
Claire had calculated the time after that night and today. Claire's moon on her original body is always on time, and Claire's health footage shows that the night was Claire's fertile period on the original body.
Both have a period of silence. Focus on each other's thoughts. No one wants to open the conversation first.
"do I have to announce now ?" ask the Emperor 10 minutes later.
"everything's on your side, I've proven my point"
With this result, Claire further strengthens her heart that now her life is changing. Although in this woman's body there is no real Claire Brendan, even though the life lived is fictional or real.
Claire had to establish her heart that the decision with the Emperor was the right choice. Taking off something that the real body loves is a great option to cover up the disgrace of the Brendan family.
