Before Braun's lips landed on Leticia's aunt, there was a knock on the door and the door opened. Leticia avoids Braun's kiss, ending both of them. Braun took his hand off Leticia's body. Leticia immediately turned around to see who the person who saved her from this disgusting state. He wanted to thank that guy.
A small figure stood in front of the door. "It's the first time I've seen Dad in the room, Mom," Judith said excitedly.
Braun was surprised at the disturbance he did not expect, but he was calm. He approached his daughter. "Dad misses your mother, Judith."
'Lies after lies spewed out of your mouth' Leticia looked at Braun.
"Then will you sleep here today? Can I come with you?" ask Judith excitedly.
Braun turned to Leticia, as if he needed Leticia's approval. Leticia nodded while revealing her fake smile.
"Of course, honey," Braun replied as he stroked his daughter's head.
"Horry." A big smile appeared on Judith's face.
Braun held his daughter. Then put him in the middle of the bed. Braun slept on Judith's left side while Leticia was on her right.
Leticia was wondering why Braun came here. Probably to watch him. Maybe to make Leticia think that Braun still loves her.
"Today, I didn't say much" Judith said suddenly. He lay down to face his mother.
Leticia flinched at Judith's words. He thought about so many things that he forgot to respond to Judith and Braun.
"Mother is just surprised and happy simultaneously, dear. I'm at a loss for words." Leticia smiled stroking her son's head.
He turned his head to Braun. Braun replied with a smile. Leticia kissed Judith's forehead followed by Braun.
Judith fell asleep and fell asleep. Leticia pretended to be asleep.
Leticia opened her eyes slowly, seeing Braun still in bed hugging Judith while closing her eyes. It seems Braun has no intention of leaving here.
Braun pretended to care for Judith, Leticia noticed. All Braun needed was Charlotte and her son. There was no Leticia or Judith in the family. They're just displays.
Braun did all this just to get the attention of Leticia and Judith. Leticia recalled the memories of the two of them being fakes. Anger filled his heart. However, now was not the right time to vent it. He will wait until the rebellion arrives.
Leticia looked at her sleeping daughter. Leticia owes Judith a debt that always comes at crucial times. Judith is his angel of salvation. He promised to protect his daughter.
Braun woke up the next morning. Judith is awake. Leticia who was still lying opened her eyes. Braun kissed his forehead.
"Good morning, dear. I'll wait for you later in the dining room with Judith."
"Good morning, Braun," said Leticia, forced to smile.
Braun also kissed his daughter's forehead sitting beside Leticia.
"Are you coming here again?" judith asked while looking at Braun.
"Maybe father came here. These days I've been very busy. It's likely that you'll be able to come next month" Braun replied.
Leticia was grateful that the new Braun would come the following month. He was able to exit the palace secretly this month. Judith looks excited her father will come here even though it is still a long time.
"It's okay, isn't it, Leticia?" braun asked looking at his wife's face.
"Of course, it's okay. I'm so glad you were able to come here, Braun," Leticia replied lying.
Braun left them both. Leticia started to straighten up her body.
"What did you need to do here last night, honey?"
"I just want to sleep with Mom. It just so happened that Dad came so we slept three," replied Judith excitedly.
"That's it. You get ready in your room for breakfast, honey. I'll come get you."
"Good, Mommy." Judith immediately ran out of the room excitedly. As soon as he got outside, he walked as usual. In front of others, he should not be disrespectful.
"If I go out at night, can you stand guard in front, Emilia?" Leticia's orders.
Leticia doesn't want her to go in Braun's secret or Judith to her room.
"Okay, Empress." Emilia.
"Time out as long as possible so that people outside do not enter" added Leticia.
"Okay, Empress." Emilia was getting used to Leticia's secret departure. He is no longer afraid. He was sure that Leticia would return safely.

Gerald was at Rainster's residence. This residence is completely unkempt. A lot of dust stuck to the walls and cobwebs in the corner of the room. There was no waiter wandering around this residence. The financial condition of the Rainster family must have been very bad. A great family is drastically turning into this.
"What are you here for, Grand Duke?" asked Marquis Rainster without further ado.
"I heard you were once angry at a meeting belonging to Count Blaire. If you can figure out why you're angry?" Gerald immediately told him the point.
"This incident is no longer on my mind. Hasn't Count Blaire been executed? It has nothing to do with the case of Count Blaire" the Marquis replied.
The Marquis' behavior is very suspicious. His eyes look red and red. He looks very agitated. He seems to be hiding something.
"I hope you're honest, Marquis." Gerald put pressure on his words.
"Go from here, Grand Duke! I told you everything!" shouted Marquis Rainster.
Gerald was slightly surprised by the Marquis' extremely unfriendly and explosive behavior.
"Alright, I'll be back again as long as you don't open your mouth, Marquis," replied Gerald coldly.
He immediately left the room. He went around the Rainster residence. The Marquis paid no attention to Gerald's actions as long as it didn't bother him.
Everything looks dirty. There was someone peering through the door. Gerald wasn't a friendly person, so that person he ignored. Nothing looks suspicious from this place, except the Marquis himself.
Gerald looked from the window at a blond person practicing alone. It seemed like that person was the son of Marquis Rainster. He decided to go to the training ground.
He arrived at the training ground. That person still doesn't realize Gerald's whereabouts. That person was around 17 years old and had the same face as Marquis Rainster when he was young. Gerald noticed the man's movements. The person has great technique but the basics are still lacking.
"You're holding the sword too tightly and your footsteps are too short" Gerald said.
Marquis Rainster's son was startled, then stopped his training. He greeted Gerald.
"You can continue your training."
The son of the Marquis felt uneasy still stopping his training. He seemed hesitant to ask.
"Have you seen my father, Lord Grand Duke?"
"Right," answered Gerald briefly.
"I'm sorry, for my father's stupidity. He's been like that since Mom died. Our family finances have also started to decline since Mother was absent" explained the Marquis's Son.
Gerald looked at Marquis Rainster's son. There were similarities between him and the person in front of him.
"What's your name?"
"I, Clovis, Mr. Grand Duke."
"I'll train you. I'll come here again tomorrow."
Clovis. Then, looked up at Grand Duke Faust's increasingly smaller back. Hoping that by being trained by a great person, he would become a person capable of restoring his family back.
