Planning Rebel

Did he not say that he wanted to pay her back and give her her freedom? When he would come back, she would ask him if this much freedom was sufficient or if he wanted to give her more.

She already wanted to see his pale face and made him realize that he was a petty person who would never be able to see her in power and make better decisions.

Ha! She scoffed as she gave a dispirited laugh and then opened the files that belong to the palace of empress and started writing notes when the door was knocked again.

"Mother, if you have some time, me and my brother want to meet you." 

"Oh of course, come in." She did not wait for them to come in but stood up and opened the door herself. 

She was feeling guilty of leaving them in turmoil after the event. If only she had a bit more time.

The kids were surprised to see their mother standing on the door waiting for them.
