Liam quickly came to his senses and turned around to set an example to the Emperor. It was a disaster because he was supposed to step ahead first.
Although this place was a Duke’s residence, it was easy for Fabian, who was the Emperor, to come straight into the living room without the Liam’s permission.
“Your Majesty, I apologize, but I think they’re both drunk because my sister recommended her to drink alcohol.”
“I didn’t ask you, Duke.”
Liam saw Fabian’s cold side face, and he felt his chest tight.
“I heard he said that I was a damn ex-husband.” said Fabian. He pushed Liam and stood in front of Evelyn.
“Is that me?”
“Who else? I’ve only got one ex-husband.”
If Evelyn was sane, she would have seen a great sight now,….. Fabian’s embarrassed face.
“So, am I going to be punished for treason against the Emperor? Just for what happened in the women’s wine party?”
“What’s the reason? Why am I a damn ex-husband?”
Things were going awry. Evelyn was drunk, and Fabian was too serious. The only rational person in this room was Liam. And he came forward, trying to calm the situation down.
“It doesn’t seem like it’s a good situation to have a conversation right now. Princess, you should go to rest now.”
But Fabian turned his head and stared at Liam and said, “I’m asking the princess, Duke, you’re in the way, so get out of here!”
It was a shameless statement. This place was a Duke’s residence, no matter how great the Emperor was.
“How can I leave the Princess alone.”
“Isn’t there a little prince too?”
Yeah…..there was a brave Prince with five teeth……… Anyway, it was an absurd excuse.
“I’ve promised to the King’s Majesty that I would protect the princess.”
“The princess will be safe. Besides, this is Emperor’s order. So Duke, I hope you can leave so the two of us could talk.”
Liam was embarrassed and glanced at Evelyn for a moment.
“Don’t bother with that, Duke Akshire!” said Evelyn. She just made things worse at this time.
“What? I’m here right now. What does Duke Akshire have to do with us?”
“You’re bullying him!”
Fabian’s face became even grimmer at that moment.
“What kind of man do you think I am?”
“I’ve never really seen you as a human being. I’ve never seen a human side of you.”
Evelyn was drunk, but her words were just right.
“The Emperor is a seat of no-emotional-appearance.”
“I never blamed you, you asked me first, so I answered.” said Evelyn. This time, she also gave a logical answer.
“The more I think about it, the more confused I am. I have given you most beautiful and the great dowry Empress’ seat in the history of the Empire. From the jewels to the number of servants, as Empress, you have everything that no other woman has.”
Fabian was talkative about it. But Evelyn sat down, looking at him, and drank another glass of champagne.
“Huh, are you drinking while I’m talking?”
“No, it’s the other way round. Your Majesty appeared as an uninvited guest while I was drinking.”
“No …… I couldn’t believe you were drinking until so drunk. Have you lied to me back then?”
“After divorce, the liquor tastes sweet.”
Fabian could not hold back his frustration and took a deep breath. It wasn’t Fabian’s misconception when he thought Evelyn was a strange woman. She smiled brightly after she left, a smile she had never seen before, and now she was drinking in front of me and speaking without hesitation.
It was unbelievable that she was Fabian’s Empress.
“Abubu…boo!”
And no matter how serious Fabian’s expression was, Adrian’s babbling always ruined the mood.
“Do you have anything else to say to this disrespectful woman?” Said Evelyn, with her blue eyes staring.
Fabian felt emotional, something was rising in his heart, but it wasn’t hate.
“Yes, you won’t run away.”
“Sure…”
Evelyn glanced at Liam, who had witnessed their conversation from the beginning.
“Duke Akshire, can I ask you to look after Adrian?”
“Are you all right?”
Fabian’s eyes were immediately fixed on Liam, who treated him as if he were a beast. And Liam’s attitude, which seemed to protect Evelyn from the beast, was even more ridiculous.
“I’m fine.”
“Then I’m going to take the little Prince.”
Only then did Fabian notice the existence of Adrian. The sight where Evelyn handed the child over to Liam was strange and annoying in Fabian’s eyes. As if the three of them were like a family, and Fabian was just a spectator.
“Yeah, the Duke of Akshire won’t go against my order.”
Fabian could have been braver than this until he got what he wanted.
“Huh… It’s okay. Duke, don’t worry too much, I’ll see you later with Rebecca.”
Liam looked at the bold princess with a very anxious face and was forced to walk out of the door while holding Adrian.
Only
“I have no idea?”
“I couldn’t understand what you meant.”
“Suddenly you asked for a divorce, and the next day you left and met again for the first time.”
Evelyn looked at Fabian with a puzzled look on her face.
“So?”
Fabian’s face frowned strangely.
“I asked if you don’t have any feelings about me?”
