When The Count’s Illegitimate Daughter Gets Married

Chapter 71

“…..”

She looked around. There was no one but the Emperor.

“There’s no improvement even though the doctors keep treating you.”

Oscar—who disappeared—was hiding behind the curtains of the window.

So what happened?

A few minutes before the Empress arrived, the Emperor’s consciousness had returned for a while.

“Father!”

Oscar jumped up when he saw the Emperor’s eyelids tremble. He watched as his father struggled to lift his thick wrinkled eyelids. He was worried since it had never happened these days, but it spread a sense of relief in his body.

It was all the more fortunate that Oscar came to his senses while he was here.

“Father, long time no see. Are you awake?”

Of course, the Emperor could not speak. It had been months since he became mute, and all he could do was blink a few times.

“Do you have any discomfort?”

He thought the Emperor would lose consciousness on the way.

But the father kept looking at his son.

Oscar noticed that there was something he wanted to say. So he waited, but the Emperor had no energy to do so.

“Father. Father.”

At that moment, his father’s eyes shifted to the wall. It was the window with thick white curtains. Oscar looked behind the window, but there was nothing.

Does he want me to open the window?

“The doctor prescribed scented candles, so we shouldn’t ventilate the room.”

Oscar was about to return from the window when he heard footsteps approaching the room.

At once, he knew it was the Empress.

‘I heard she embarrassed herself in front of Mrs. Reinhardt last evening, and she must be displeased.’

He was also told how she was humiliated.

It was hilarious to imagine Laritte responding with a very insensitive expression.

He didn’t know when he was together with her, but now that he thought of it, he deserved to be the Empress’s natural enemy.

Oscar didn’t want to run into her, so he went up to the window frame. He was able to hide perfectly when he covered himself with curtains from the window. The Empress’s eyes landed on the Emperor lying in bed without even knowing another presence.

Oscar peeped at her through the curtains. It was fancy of her to come to see the patient. He was a little touched.

But she still visited his father. Such a fact was never reported to Oscar.

It was then that she said something unexpected.

“This tedious time will soon be over, Your Majesty.”

It was bone-chilling.
