“Your Highness, Duchess Freya wants to meet you.”

Scarlesia is busy chatting with Cici and Kitty, but a waiter calls her and tells her that Duchess Freya has come to see her. Scarlesia had to stop her chatter first and she immediately went to see Duchess Debora in the living room.

“Greetings to Her Royal Highness Crown Princess,” said Duchess Freya bowed in greeting.

“Do not be too polite duchess, please just sit down,” Scarlesia said.

Duchess Freya immediately sat down, as did Scarlesia sitting opposite to her. Not to forget the waiters served drinks and snacks to accompany the conversation they both had.

“What's the duchess? Is there something you want to say to me?” ask Scarlesia.

Duchess Freya's expression seemed to describe the complexity, she lowered her head a few seconds before she answered Scarlesia's question.

“I want to apologize to you Your Majesty about the problem that befell you when attending the tea party that I held. I didn't predict it would be a party, to be honest I wanted to see you that day but the palace forbade anyone else to enter,” replied Duchess Freya exposing to Scarlesia the reason why she came to see him.

Actually the name of Duchess Freya is currently being discussed in Evariste because she is considered unable to undergo the party properly. The tarnishing of the good name of Duchess Freya must have been a burden on her own mind, so far the family Duchess Freya has served the empire and showed her oath of loyalty to the emperor. However, due to this issue the loyalty of the Duchess Freya's family was doubted by the nobles.

“It's not your fault duchess, so you don't have to apologize to me because I know you're a good person. What poisoned me that day was not your plan but this is Abigail.”

Just before Scarlesia lost her consciousness completely, she saw Abigail there hiding behind a wall while covering her face in a robe but Scarlesia could still recognize Abigail's face. Hearing that, Duchess Freya was shocked not to be dumbfounded because she had investigated the mastermind behind the Scarlesia poisoning incident.

“Abigail? How can you know His Majesty?” ask Duchess Freya.

“I saw him in the party room that day, you know now right? You're not wrong at all. And also the poison he used to kill me was not a poison that just anyone could encounter. This is a dangerous poison even much more dangerous than ordinary poison,” Scarlesia explained.

Duchess Freya exhaled a sigh of relief, her lips curving into a smile. He finally calmed down after finding out who was the mastermind behind all this.

“But Abigail ran away and did not know where she was. How do I catch His Majesty?”

Scarlesia took a sip of her tea first and then put her teacup on the table.

“Abigail is dead. If she was still alive, she would have come to the palace when I was lying weak but the woman did not show her nose in front of me. This means that he is no longer there,” Scarlesia said.

“Caused too, was he killed?”

“It seems right, he was killed by someone he considered an ally.”

Duchess Freya nodded in understanding, she continued some other talks with Scarlesia. Now the problem of who put the poison in Scarlesia drinks some time ago has been solved.

“Of course he was killed, the god of darkness does not need humans as his subordinates, the inner” Scarlesia grinned.

After Duchess Freya resigned, Scarlesia immediately made an announcement on a paper about the perpetrator who poisoned her. Then the announcement paper was affixed to the notice board in the middle of the city square so that everyone could see and open their eyes that Duchess Freya was not wrong.

Since that day, Duchess Freya's good name has returned to normal. Bad rumors that Duchess Freya has disappeared as if swallowed by the earth. Scarlesia was grateful that everything could come back as it was.

“The problem has been solved but why is my strength until now still not recovered? I was tired of seeing witches and knights surround my palace every day just to keep an eye on me for nowhere,” Scarlesia grumbled.

This was already grumbling to the extent that Scarlesia could not stop her mouth from grumbling. He was upset not to play, he just wanted to play for a moment outside but his freedom was strictly restricted. All he did was stand by his window looking at the blue sky, nothing more special than that.

“Sia, you don't grumble so much,” reprimand Louis from below.

Hearing Louis's voice, Scarlesia spontaneously glanced down and it turned out that Louis was sitting under a tree that was growing facing her right by the window of her room.

“Louis! Since when are you there?” ask Scarlesia.

“Just now, I heard you grumbling so I decided to sit here watching your grunts,” replied Louis.

“I'm bored, wait there. I'll come for you,” said Scarlesia about to turn around and catch up with Louis.

“Not necessary. Let me pick you up to the room,” intercept Louis.

When Scarlesia turned around, Louis was behind her and carried her to the bottom.

Shady trees plus the breeze of the day gives a beautiful feel to relax from all the burden of mind and work.

“Not bad also turns out,” Scarlesia said.

They sat side by side under the tree, then suddenly Louis lay his head on Scarlesia's thigh.

“I'd rather see your face from here,” Louis said.

Scarlesia chuckled, she stroked Louis' hair slowly.

“You spoiled once.”

“It's okay, I just want to be spoiled by you.”

Louis' words were so sweet to hear, but this was also funny to Scarlesia because before she turned into a more mature form, she had never acted like this.

“Hahaha really? Your mouth is so sweet.”

“Oh yes? Is my mouth sweet? How about you taste my sweet mouth now?” seductive Louis used a mischievous look and smile while smirking the tip of Scarlesia's hair.

“Are you trying to seduce me now?”

Scarlesia pinched Louis's cheek, in fact Louis was mature enough to upset him.

“Aduhh don't pinch my cheeks, I'm just kidding.”

“Do not try to seduce me again...”

“WOY LOUIS!”

Surprisingly, Andreas along with the other men came to shock Louis and Scarlesia.

“Why are you here? How dare you seduce Sia behind us,” Zenon's tirade pulled Louis to get up from Scarlesia's thigh.

“You're bothering me! Go and don't bother my time with Sia,” drive Louis out.

He turned to the side and wrapped his hands around Scarlesia's waist, his face touching Scarlesia's belly.

“What are you doing? Stand up!” Oliver is furious and helps Zenon to pull Louis out of Scarlesia.

“No! I don't want to! Don't force me!” sturdy Louis.

Andreas could not stand it anymore, he pulled out his sword and pointed it at Louis to bully Louis.

“AAAAHH DON'T! I'll stand right now.”

Finally Louis complied, he stood with a feeling of annoyance half-dead at those who dared to disturb the time of his messengers with Scarlesia. After Louis stood up, it was Andrew's turn to sleep on Scarlesia's thigh.

“WHY ARE YOU SLEEPING ON SIA'S THIGH NOW?” louis shouted annoyed.

“Build Andreas! You can't just monopolize Sia,” Elios said.

As usual, Andreas did not respond to all of their protests and he pretended not to hear what they said to him.

“Sia, I'm sleepy, Let me take a nap,” Andreas said.

“Oke, sleep.”

“CURANG! KAU CURANG ANDREAS!”

They all yelled at Andreas cheating, they were unrelenting protests to get Andreas to leave Scarlesia. While Scarlesia herself only chuckles to see them behave like children including Xeon who also grumbled at Andreas.
