"i think i should go back now" elisa turned back to her room lily helped her change elisa to her pajamas she went to bed and thought of reading a book after a while albert entered the room to sleep he could see elisa asleep the book in her hand was now in her lap "seriously she should have got to bed earlier" he helped elisa lay on bed without waking her up he looked at her and smiled without realizing he kissed her forehead "sleep well"

he also went to sleep afterwards after a few hours elisa woke up slightly and saw albert sleeping she sat on the bed and looked at him and smiled "i see, so he helped me" she looked for the book she read'ed yesterday and saw it in the near table without waking albert up she slowly stood from the bed and went to the nearby table to drink water

"did i fall asleep when reading" she said to herself she went outside the room and called lily to help her dress up "my lady what happened yesterday" lily asked by grinning

"nothing important" elisa said bluntly which made lily lose her hopes "oh right my lady the emperor called for you" lily asked by glancing at elisa "me what is it for" she asked lily by looking up "i think this is about the meeting" Adele who was quietly brushing her hair aid suddenly

"the meeting huh i wonder if something happened" elisa and her two beautiful maids went to see the emperor since she was called "i greet your highness the crown princess" the guard who was guarding the emperor's workroom "inform my visit to the emperor"

the guard went inside and came back after 2 minutes "please enter without your maids" he said by bowing back to her elisa raised her hands which made the two maids step back she entered the room and saw the emperor working on his documents

"your majesty i heard you called for me" elisa said by glancing at him the emperor suddenly stood from his chair and looked at elisa "the duke of Latins is dead"

WITH THE LATINS

"how did this happen"

"i heard the duke suicided"

"something is definitely going on"

the maids started to gossip while the family of Latins were having a meeting

"hah seriously what the hell was he thinking to hang himself in a rope" James who was the duke Latins big brother said by rubbing his hair by his hands "let that slide the Latins are in danger" Archie who was his cousin said by banging his hand on the table

"pls calm down" rosaline suddenly said out of nowhere

everyone's attention went to her words and looked at her

"do you perhaps have any idea why he did this" James asked his niece and keeping his left leg in right "i am not sure" everyone's attention was on rosaline who spoke out of nowhere which made her uncomfortable to speak

'hah i killed him because he was useless now and that i can become the duchess but the way it's going right now doesn't seem well' rosaline plotted against her own father and used him to her advantage, but now she was in a hard position

'seriously what was so good about that guy anyway' Henry who was the cousin of rosaline hated the Latins because of the aura and rumors spread about them, he also knew what the duke and rosaline was doing this year's

"i think we need a new duke now" Henry said out loud where the people looked at him than rosaline "yes my dear cousin is right we need a new duke" everyone started thinking about the thing Henry and rosaline said where James asked rosaline a question "are you perhaps saying you will become the next duchess my niece"

"yes uncle James since i was the successor of this family after father it's only natural that i become the next duchess" rosaline waited for her family to approve of the thing she said, but they could not approve it easily 'well whatever this was what she was planning on doing in the start' Henry approved of her being the next duchess which made the others to, this officially made rosaline the next duchess
