Chapter 162: Chaos ( IV )

Cosette De Saude saw what happened and to say the least, she was surprised. After all, her mother's expression also looked shocked which meant that this was not a part of any scheme that the De Saude family had created.

So who was it? She wanted to bite down on her nails but she knew her mother would disapprove. A lady's hands should never be tainted. Thus, she made proper care to keep them polished and perfect.

Lumielle was coughing up blood and amongst the rush of people who ran forward to help, Cosette was not one of them. Yet, neither was the Emperor. Cosette watched the older man, his expression changed for a second. Eyes widening as his hand reached out before he pulled it back and returned to the stoic man that he was known for.
