âUh, you can use it as much as you like,â said Ereina, the Empress, who was drinking red wine in a gloomy mood, with a blushing face.
Evan, who had the audacity to go to the Empress and asked her to come to the back garden of the palace, only nodded casually.
âI also like to drink, Empress.â
âOh, no, Duchess. Act, actually, when I heard that the Duchess was sick, I thought Iâd goâŠâÂ
Saying that, her face blushed. At this point, Juliana was worried that Ereina might have been drunk and talking nonsense.
She dared to ask with a look of doubt.
âEmpress, what year is it?â
âYes, yes? 150 year of imperial powerâŠ, a year?â
Damn it! Youâre drunk!
Julianaâs eyes widened.
What was the Empress doing that she didnât know she was drinking wine like the water? This year is 151 year of imperial power!
âYouâre drunk.â
ââŠme, me?â
Ereina frowned at this statement.Â
She, who seemed to be only about 150-centimeter-tall, raised her head and said, âI, surely, drank, drank a lot, a lot of wine.â
âEmpress, let me serve you.â
âJuliana, the Empress said that we could use one of her rooms. What are you going to do?â Evan said, grinning.
Juliana wanted to use one of the Empressâs rooms to finish this useless dispute as soon as possible. Whenever she talked about the fate of her half-sister and her mother, her voice would naturally rise, and then she would quarrel.
This is all your fault!
Juliana turned her head toward her father, who was standing helplessly. Then, the Marquis of Auburn, who noticed the flame in her eyes at once, stuttered and gave her an excuse.
âJu, Juliana. Teresa said she was sick, soâŠâ
As soon as he spoke weakly, Juliana gritted her teeth.
âSo what? My father still has pity for her. Itâs my father who got divorced. So why donât you hate her at least for my sake?â
âYes, I know you acted that way because you hated your mother.â
âWhat do you mean âthat wayâ? Watch your language!â Juliana shouted.
Then suddenly she looked back at her shivering younger sister. Why does this kid wear thin clothes?!Â
âIris, thatâs enough. Itâs bothersome to talk to you. Your mother is sick? Just go to the hospital or stop by to see a doctor. Donât even dream of me going there myself.â
As if to confirm the broken relationship once again, she said bitterly.
âŠletâs stay calm. Itâs just the mother of âthe present life.â So there is a different mother from âthe past lifeâ. Iâm Lee Sian, and Iâm reincarnated as Juliana Auburn⊠Damn it, but why was I born again like this?! No matter how much I think about it, itâs unfair.
Juliana took a deep breath.
And she helped the Empress, who was still moaning, â151 year, 152 year of imperial power.â
âEmpress. Go ahead and rest.â
âTh, thank you. Ah. Ju, Juliana. Itâs all right. My, my room, useâŠâ
ââŠnext time.â
Juliana deliberately passed the narrow path, supporting the Empress.
Evan, determined to follow them, shrugged as if he couldnât help it. Then he turned back without regret to his father-in-law and his wifeâs half-sister and followed the Empress and his wife.
