章節 172: On the way to Comédie-Française

Napoleon and his family were on their way to the Comédie-Française, where Joseph Hadyn's Oratorio was scheduled to take place. They traveled in a carriage, and inside, Napoleon and Ciela couldn't help but glance intermittently at the windows, checking the streets and alleys they passed.

Francis and Aveline, their children, exchanged puzzled glances, wondering why their parents were acting so strangely. Aveline couldn't contain her curiosity any longer and decided to ask.

"Papa," Aveline spoke up, breaking the silence.

Napoleon's attention shifted to Aveline, who had just called him. "Yes, my dear?" he replied, trying to maintain composure.

"Brother and I have noticed that both you and Mama keep looking out of the window. Is something the matter?" Aveline inquired innocently.

Napoleon and Ciela exchanged worried glances. Even though the threat of assassination had been neutralized by Fouche, Napoleon, and Ciela still couldn't be too careful.
