Yuana sank into her thoughts; she was still in love with her fiancé. She loved everything about him, and the warmth of tea couldn't dissolve her memories. Delta desired to exert more pressure on Yuana, but her impending childbirth drew nearer, and the pain grew stronger. Thus, the carriages carried her towards the Kingdom of Carmina after bidding farewell to Yuana. Yet, she didn't miss the opportunity to press her while her child screamed to be let out and the carriages pulled her away.
A few days after Delta's departure, the servants seemed to diminish day by day, and the expenses grew smaller than ever before. Yuana realized that her presence began to bother Achil's mother, and if it weren't for the fact that his mother genuinely believed her son was punishing her, it wouldn't only stop with that.
Tait went out in search of some news and quickly learned what had transpired. Achil was already the talk of the palace, which appeared empty without its crown prince. She hurriedly returned to Yuana, alone in a building devoid of anyone else. "Achil's engagement has been postponed after his betrothed found out about his visits to you." Yuana bit her worried nails, realizing what kind of betrothal she would face.

In a palace where every prince had dozens of mistresses, to cry over a single consort... she had undoubtedly accepted marriage to become the protagonist of a story, the dreams of a humiliated nation. What meaning does a knight in shining armor hold when he's been stolen by a foreign consort?
Tiat continued her speech. "She is the daughter of the highest-ranking minister, a friend of Prince Achil's grandfather, and a former prime minister... more precisely, a friend of the queen's father!" Yuana bit her nails even harder, uttering in an anxious voice, "Oh God, we're doomed!" It didn't take long for Achil to arrive.
Upon Yuana's command, Tait turned off all the lights except for her room when he arrived. She didn't want Achil to see the state of the palace and the absence of the servants. However, Tait opposed the idea, saying, "Why? He should see it so he can help us." But Yuana found his assistance to be a greater burden. "There's nothing worse than a prince wanting to protect his pet lamb."
