ZOE honestly thought that it was an open secret that Princess Vera, the empress's daughter, wasn't human.
Until she saw the three gentlemen's faces and realized it wasn't.
Oh.
[Maybe they only suspect that Princess Vera isn't Emperor Rino's daughter, but they didn't think that the child isn't human.]
It made sense since Isaak, in the "novel," found out the truth later in the story.
"Daughter, what are you talking about?" her father, Marquis Hendrix Rochester, asked carefully. "Princess Vera isn't human?"
Zoe scratched her cheek. "I thought you already have an idea…"
"We know that Princess Vera can't be Emperor Rino's child," Isaak said, and he looked confused. "But I honestly thought that the empress just used a child from her clan to pretend as her daughter, since Princess Vera resembles Her Majesty a little."
Fighting, Kim Sua!
