章 640: The faint scent of danger

Florence wasn't even surprised that Rufus came to her that day to talk about official matters between the Karo Kingdom and the empire. Their discussion didn't last that long.

It had been three months since then.

It was amusing how the days went by in a blur for her. For four months, Florence could count the times she had seen her husband. If not for the fact that they have to eat dinner together at least once a week, they wouldn't see each other at all. 

There was a benefit for not meeting Rufus that much, though.

Florence got used to their setup and was able to focus on her duties as the empress. Although she still tried to have a good relationship with her husband, it felt like pounding against a thick concrete wall with bare first.
