Empress Lica didn't notice the arrival of Prince Blaise who was already sitting on one of the chairs closest to the balcony. The woman was busy with her thoughts.
"Why is mother such a desperate person?" asked Prince Blaise after taking several deep breaths.
Empress Lica gasped and stared in shock at Prince Blaise who was smiling faintly. Tired and disinterested smile. Ever since Prince Blaise, his parents' relationship had been like that. Like water and oil in some ways.
Although on the outside they only show harmony. But in their hearts, there is no real love. The love that Empress Lica felt was a cold one-sided love.
"I should be the one asking, why are you still lazing around? Why don't you work?" asked Empress Lica, it was easy for her to hide her feelings.
However, it was useless in front of Prince Blaise.
