Bab 255: Child Born From Dead Mother

Shanel had no option but to obey the King's decree. The court lady carried the bowl of medicine to Sephina while Shanel could only shed tears while standing on the side. The court lady passed it to the servant she brought with her, who then fed that medicine to Sephina. The second wife of the Crown Prince drank with her eyes closed, tears streaming down her face. 

Once she finished, she lay down on bed as heavy drowsiness threatened to pull her under. She knew the moment she slept, she would never wake up again.

"Please sleep well, my lady. His Majesty's last act of mercy is to make sure you can leave this world as peacefully as possible," the court lady said as the next moment Sephina gasped heavily. She wanted to at least see her beloved husband one last time, but as her eyes opened, the world had turned pitch black. 

The second her eyes fluttered close, there was no life left inside her.
