Chapter 321 Poliana stretched her body in her bedroom. After dinner, she exercised lightly, and she felt good. She would probably get a good sleep tonight. Poliana looked around, noticing how different her room looked. While she was gone, it was normal for the butler to maintain the house by keeping it clean and organized, but it seemed that her butler completely changed the place during her absence. The walls, which were covered with damaged and patched up wallpapers from Poliana’s frequent assault,…-

Chapter 320 Poliana asked, “Your highness, do you really… Do you really mean what you said?” “The moment we stood on that cliff, my feelings for you have never changed; my love for you will be eternal.” Ever since he has fallen for her, Lucius the First has been Poliana’s prisoner. Poliana’s hands, still held by the emperor, warmed up. Slowly, she tried squeezing back, and by doing so, she was able to feel her own heartbeat at the tips of her fingers. Until now, she has been trying to deny…

Chapter 319 Poliana couldn’t think at all. It was obvious that Lucius the First’s beauty could be used as a weapon to distract his enemy. The truth was, the emperor has been preparing for this day since he returned to Yapa. He ordered his room to be redecorated completely. The carpet, the wallpaper, and even the furniture were all replaced so their colors could enhance his look. Poliana continued, “How could you look even more beautiful than the priceless jewels you are wearing, your highness? The…

Chapter 318 Poliana asked Master Chail, “His highness must be very busy with work, then?” “He will be with you very shortly, Marquess Winter.” One of the special privileges Poliana had was to walk into the emperor’s room without his permission. However, she did not misuse her power unless necessary because she didn’t want to interrupt the emperor when he was busy running the kingdom; she understood how annoying it was when one’s focus gets disrupted. Sir Donau asked while they waited,…

Chapter 316 “It’s actually a very common scenario, Mistress.”l𝑖𝚋𝓇𝙚𝙖d.c𝚘𝐦 When the butler explained, Poliana sighed in relief, “Is that right?” The truth was, Lucius the First also had the same reaction as Poliana when he first heard this version of the story. So far, the stories they talked about were the versions that were popular among the commoners. What really mattered, however, was the version that was going around among the nobles. Poliana asked the butler, “I…

Chapter 317 The noblemen of Yapa were concerned; they were more worried about the emperor’s marriage than their own children’s lives. They did not believe him when Lucius the First claimed that he would take care of his marriage plan. It was understandable that the emperor was hesitant about remarrying. He lost all of his three wives tragically; one died while giving birth to his daughter, the other was divorced, and the third left him and their marriage was annulled. Lucius the First was indeed…

The original story of Lucius the First and Poliana was already fascinating, but the bards and the poets apparently added even more interesting and false details to the tale. The people of Yapa were captivated by it. Poliana gritted her teeth. “F*ck! What is going on here?!” She could now understand why the guard at the gate acted so shyly around her. He was covering his mouth the entire time, and she thought that either he was honored to meet the powerful marquess or he was hiding his bad breath, but…

Chapter 314 Poliana’s face crumpled into an ugly frown. She has never been a reader of a romantic novel, which meant she had no idea how to deal with her current situation. ‘I better start reading some of those lady’s novels from now on.’ “First, I will marry the emperor.” Sir Donau, knowing Poliana very well, finished her sentence for her, “And then you are going to divorce him. Fine, fine. I got it. It’s so funny how naïve you are, Sis. From now on, your nickname should be the…

Story 22. Happiness Chapter 313 When Poliana announced her travel plan to Yapa, the head of the Sitrin guards tried to gather some of his best men to escort her. Poliana, however, refused, “I’m fine on my own.” “Mistress, it could be dangerous.” The head of the Sitrin guards was insistent and Poliana understood. If she was in his position, she would’ve done the same. Even the best of young knights could face danger when traveling alone. All the powerful and important figures needed to be…

Chapter 312 Sir Donau’s words shocked Poliana. She had never thought about her situation this way. She felt a little guilty about using Duke Luzo as an example since he was a happily married man, but she decided to imagine what it would’ve been like. Let’s say Duke Luzo was still unmarried and fell in love with Poliana. Because he was an obedient man, it was very likely that he would’ve listened to whatever Poliana had to say and follow her wishes. She would’ve insisted on staying in Yapa and…
