Lilian sighed softly looking at the Citto who had fallen back into a deep sleep. Previously Citto rampaged in the palace because when he woke up, Lilian was not there beside him. Citto dropped everything around him and scared the servants. Luckily Rosa then closed the door of the room and let Citto damage all the goods inside and not long after Lilian came and immediately calmed the animal.

To ensure that Citto did not throw any more tantrums at the palace, Lilian decided to take Citto back to her residence and work on her documents there.

"It seems that from now on I will have to train Citto to be able to control myself again. Especially now that I have a lot of work, there's no way I should always take her away." Said Lilian looking solemnly at Citto.

"Do I need to find someone who can teach you Miss?" Ask Rosa.

"No Rosa. Citto is very sensitive to others, if I let him be with others I fear Citto will hurt that person." Lilian.

"Then how about now, Miss?" Ask Rosa back.

"For a while I will work on the documents here.I cannot always go back and forth to the palace and for Citto let me teach him slowly." Lilian.

"All right, Miss." Rosa Say.

Lilian then stood up and walked towards her dressing table. After spinning a crystal ball that was on the table, a door leading to the door of his personal library room appeared.

Lilian then walked in and sat down on one of the chairs in the room. "Rosa do you know Prince Igor Jhomson?" Lilian asked and looked towards Rosa.

"Of course Miss. Prince Igor is the son of the second concubine." Clearly Rosa.

"Can you tell me a little bit about him?" Ask Lilian.

Rosa looked at Lilian confusedly. "I'm sorry to you, Miss, I know very little about Prince Igor." Rosa Say.

"It's okay Rosa. You just tell me something that only you know." Lilian

Rosa nodded slowly. "Prince Igor is a man who doesn't really like Miss' crowd. The prince will only appear on certain days." Rosa Say.

Lilian frowned. "When the palace had a party and a hunting party, why didn't I ever see one?" Lilian asked confusedly.

"Maybe Prince Igor is on a job outside Miss. As far as I know Prince Igor often does work outside the kingdom which makes him rarely seen in the palace. No one knows much about him, the Prince is very secretive and not too close to the rest of the royal family." Clearly Rosa.

Lilian nodded briefly. "It looks like he's an adventurous person." Said Lilian slowly.

"Maybe also Miss, I've heard a rumor stating that the relationship between the Crown Prince and Prince Igor does not get along, but I can't be sure if the rumors are true or not." Clearly Rosa.

Lilian nodded slowly. "It seems that the rumor was true. While in the palace, I accidentally met with Prince Igor and we talked for a while but after the arrival of Prince Seint, I was in a position to meet Prince Igor, the look on his face looked different and Prince Seint didn't like it when I asked about Prince Igor." Clearly Lilian while recalling the events of the time in the palace.

"What about what she looks like, miss?" Ask Rosa curiously.

Lilian looked confusedly at Rosa. "You've never seen him?" Ask Lilian.

"Of course Miss. Prince Igor was very secretive, few people could see his face. Unlike Prince Seint who looks everywhere." Rosa Say.

Lilian recalled the face of Prince Igor. "He had a handsome face, a sharp nose, slightly brownish skin, light brown hair and blue eyes. If you remember her face is different from Prince Seint, or maybe Prince Igor looks like a second concubine." Lilian.

"Maybe Miss, then which one is more handsome between Prince Seint and Prince Igor?" Ask Rosa curiously.

"Certainly Prince Seint is more handsome, if he's not handsome, how could I have a relationship with him." Said Lilian sewot.

Rosa swallowed slowly. "Even though Prince Seint is ugly shouldn't Miss Lilian still accept him?" Ask Rosa.

Lilian stared dislikefully at Rosa. "Of course I'll turn it down. I'm the daughter of Duke Marven, of course I have the right to refuse." Lilian.

"If Prince Seint turns ugly, will Miss break up with him?" Ask Rosa tease.

"Prince Seint will never turn ugly and aissss why are we talking about him? we were talking about Prince Igor." Lilian raised her voice.

"I don't want to talk about it anymore." Lilian said irritatedly as she opened her desk drawer. "Where was the last time I put that letter." Said Lilian quietly while looking for a letter that always made her curious.

"It looks like it's in Miss's corner drawer." Rosa said.

Lilian then looked for the letter according to direction from Rosa. there she found the letter she was looking for and re-opened the letter.

"Rosa I've always been curious about the smell of this letter." Lilian said as she showed the letter to Rosa.

"Why Miss?" Ask Rosa.

Lilian looked back at the letter. "I once smelled the same scent as this letter." Lilian.

"Where's Miss?" Ask Rosa curiously.

"I once smelled the same scent on Mr. Adrian Pavel but after I met him again his scent was different." Lilian said in recalling.

"Is Miss sure before?" Ask Rosa.

"I'm so sure Rosa. It's just that this letter has another scent, it smells familiar to me but I forgot what this smell is." Said Lilian while kissing the letter. "I'm very curious every time I remember it and oh yes did Asgar never come to visit?" Ask Lilian.

"Mr Asgar seems to be heading out of town Miss. I accidentally heard the Great Lord and the Young Master were discussing the family business and mentioned Mr. Asgar as well." Clearly Rosa.

"Did you also hear when he came back?" Ask Lilian

Rosa took a slow breath. "Sorry Miss but I don't know, I think the talk of the Great Lord and the young Master seems very important so I don't dare listen any further." Rosa is guilty.

Lilian let out a sigh of resignation. "Why do I always forget to ask him when I meet." Lilian.

"Because there are many events that Miss always experienced accidentally. I always forget to remind her of Miss." Rosa Say.

"You're right, there's a lot of things I've been through lately." Lilian said remembering.

"It always hurts Miss. Is it possible that someone with evil intentions is the same Miss?" Ask Rosa curiously.

Lilian rounded her eyes perfectly. "True, all this time I wasn't thinking in that direction. There's a lot of weird stuff I've always been through." Lilian began to understand.

"I have also heard unintentionally from Young Master that the incident that Miss always experienced must have been interference from other pihal." Rosa is serious.

Lilian squinted towards Rosa. "You always say that you don't overhear, what exactly are you doing?" Lilian said seriously.

"Miss Aissss used to always tell me to eavesdrop on the Great Lord's conversation. That habit carried on until now even though Miss didn't tell him to." Clearly Rosa.

"Why did I tell you to eavesdrop on Dad's conversation?" Lilian did not believe it.

"That's because Miss used to always be curious about royal matters." Rosa was honest.

Lilian nodded slowly. "Is it possible because I used to be so curious about royal matters that I accidentally offended someone?" Lilian.

"It seems true Miss. I just remembered that Miss used to do great things." Rosa was impatient.

"What?" Lilian asked curiously.

"Some once thwarted someone's plans by accident." Said Rosa looking solemnly at Lilian.
