Chapter ４４

Amidst the chaos, I vaguely heard the voice of Stephan Buther.

It sounded like someone was trying to persuade him to usurp the throne.

I want to open my eyes and agree, but I was still too weak.

Perhaps it was because I hadn't slept properly in so long that I was so tired.

Even so, my mind was still sharp; I could hear what the elders outside were saying, but I didn't hear anything from Stephan Buther.

I frowned slightly. I agreed vehemently with what the elders were saying.

After all, if Oku was bold enough to do such a thing to me, who could say what he would do to Stephan Buther and Daina? I couldn't rest easy at all.

But first, I needed to open my eyes.

I struggled at first, but I managed to crack them open.

The world gradually grew clear to me. I was lying in my own room.

The doctors around me were running around like headless chickens.

I glanced up and saw an intravenous fluid bottle hanging.

Lastly, I saw Daina sitting next to me.

"Mrs. Stephan is awake!"
