Unacceptable

"Since when have you had this feelings? The Empress asked quietly but Kleila couldn't answer, she just kept apologizing for she knows the Empress is angry at her.

"You're a shame Kleila and a woman worth no standard. My son will marry from the Seo family or either still a family with name and there's nothing you can do about it. Since you already made it clear that you're now a woman, I will be sending you back to your mother first thing tomorrow morning."

"Please Empress mother." Kleila plead while still kneeling down and crying but the Empress refused, instead she looked down at her and told her to kindly follow Dae-Du who's now standing beside Kleila with a large bag in his left hand.

Dae-Du is one of the palace guards and when Hyung-sik went to get Kleila, the Empress ordered him to get Kleila things when he sees Kleila with Hyun-sik.

Kleila wiped her tears and stood up while hoping all this is a dream. Some part of Kleila kept disturbing her to plead with the Empress some more but her other stronger part knows the Empress well enough, once she has something against you, she tends to make your life a living hell.

"Dae-Du will take you to my mother's place where you'll spend the night, then in the morning  you two will board a ship that will take you to your mother." The Empress said but Kleila didn't say anything, she just nodded her head and begin to head out.

The Empress grab Kleila by her hands and this made Kleila look at her. "I don't hate you Kleila, your feelings for my son is just unacceptable and you staying here will only worsen it for you, for he won't be with you. Long before he was even born, his wives has already been selected.

It's only right that you return to your mother and the boat will be taking you there. I had you mother traced and she's willing to accept you."

"But mother said they're fighting over there." Kleila said finally reviewing how saddened she is.

"They're no more fighting Kleila." The Empress told her but this only made Kleila sad for she doesn't want to leave the Emperor.

"But he doesn't love me and I won't see him everyday, I will stay in my quarters, I won't go to him ..please Empress mother, please let me stay." Kleila plead but the Empress refused,

She let go of Kleila hand.  "Go now and never come back." The Empress said when Kleila still didn't move.

Kleila kept looking at the Empress pleadingly but the Empress order Dae-Du to take her out immediately.
