It was a fate that I wouldn't be able to see today anymore. I was going to live in seclusion from now on, and upon reflecting, I thought that even if I kept separating Elisha and the Crown Prince, wouldn't they eventually meet someday? That was truly the content of a novel, and I was just the Crown Prince's half-brother. And if that was fate, what could I possibly change about Elisha's fate? So, I decided to say what I wanted to say. Since we wouldn't even meet by chance anymore. I reached out and carefully grabbed her wrist. Then, while adjusting my handkerchief, I said, "It's to prevent you from meeting the Crown Prince." "What does that mean?" "It means exactly that." Seeing Kania, who was examining her wrist as if it would break if I applied too much force, made Elisha think a lot. It was an unexpected sight. It was very different from the image she had known. "The Crown Prince's character is not right. I was concerned that he might use his authority to issue a royal decree, captivated by your beauty." "........" "And whether you believe it or not," "........" "I have known you for a very long time. Very," "........" "I wanted to see you." Elisha felt as if her breath had stopped.
