Chương 310: A young heart (2)

Before sending all the ladies back to their homes, I have to talk with Eliza and make sure she isn't playing some trick to get the Emperor's attention. She wouldn't be the first to play hard to get, even though her plan is not working as she expected.

At the same time, it would be good to ask her what she desires.

The fact that I can't imagine a place where she would be treated better doesn't entail she'll like Ethiro as well.

After all, not all people are identical. We all have different purposes.

Just to think that I would never imagine a life without a crown before losing the war, yet now I don't care so much. Maybe, Eliza doesn't even desire a powerful position, to begin with.

It would be one in a million. And it would mean we can't let go of her.

She started making deviations to her strolls, all to make it harder to organise chance meetings.

I feel like I'm the one chasing after her now.
