Chapitre 127: Found A Diary Underneath The Vanity

As evening descended, casting a warm glow across the opulent Crown Prince's room, the lavish decor bespoke a fine taste, with walls adorned by intricate paintings and furniture crafted from rich, dark woods. The crackling fire in the fireplace added a touch of warmth to the room, its dancing flames flickering in rhythmic harmony.

After Adrien finished his conversation with the ministers in the courtroom, he went to his glorious sanctuary. The exquisite tapestries and polished surfaces that mirrored the flickering flames were among the opulent textures that filled the space, and they were all highlighted by the faint light. There was a light smell in the air, kind of like old wood mixed with the tang of embers.

Clad with the heavy burden of courtly matters, his hand sought the lace of the black robe that framed his figure. He pulled it loose with a slow, methodical move, letting the cloth fall about him and gather at his feet.
