Saving The Abandoned Empress Chapter 170 “The Emperor’s Regret” (2)

170 “The Emperor’s Regret” (2)

In an instant, The emperor’s face turned dark as his sword stabbed Duke Raven’s shoulder.

He narrowed his red eyes fiercely and roared at the duke.

“YOU DARE CALL MY EMPRESS A SINNER?!”

‘…’

‘Hah! Your empress?!’

Eleanora stood infront of the emperor as she asked, even if she knew he can’t hear her.

‘Wasn’t it you, who took your name away from mine and divorced me before putting me in jail?!’

‘Wasn’t it you, who showed off your love for her infront of everyone during my trial?!’

‘Wasn’t it you, who made me a sinner?!’

…..

‘How dare you to blame the other people now, when it was you who gave them the chance to make me a sinner?!’

“Duke Raven… You should be grateful that i still haven’t killed you as am not an expert in faking evidence.

The moment i get something in my hands… That will be your last day in this world,”

The emperor spoke as he withdrew his sword and walked out from the audience room, with the empress crown in his hands.

‘…What does he mean?!’

Eleanora decided to follow him as his last words confused her.

The palace she remembered from the past, looked like more and more like her current life’s palace.

In her previous life, there was not much rose in the garden but in this dream, the whole palace is full of roses.

Just like the palace of her current life.

Eleanora followed the emperor, who looked more older then his actual age; all the way to the emperor’s palace to his bedroom.

As the room was dark, Eleanora couldn’t see anything clearly but then she suddenly paused on her steps as she heard his voice again.

Which was gentle and full of love, not cold or fierece like he sounded at the audience room.

“Sorry for the late, love. You know how annoying those dogs are. So it took me some time to tame them.”

“…”

“I missed you so much… You also missed me a lot right?”

“…”

“Here’s your crown. As i can’t take you with me, i have to bear it by looking at your crown.”

“…”

“This crown only looks better when it’s on your head, otherwise it just looks plain to me.”

The emperor spoke as he put the crown on the head of the lady, who was laying on the bed quitely.

Where Eleanora sneered as she heard his words.

‘Hah! You just denied to make her empress but now you are also putting it on her head?!’

Eleanora thought as she took the lady in the bed to be Jennifer.

She didn’t wanted to enter the bedroom anymore and wanted to get out of this dream.

‘When will this dream end-‘

“Oh my, the baby doesn’t stops crying… What should i do;

My empress?”

Eleanora’s thinking paused as she heard the emperor’s words and turned back to look at the dark room again in confusion.

‘There is no crying of babies… What is he saying?’

She thought as she slowly approached the emperor, whose back was facing her.

The emperor was holding something in his arms and rocking it like people does to babies.

Curiosity caught Eleanora but she was afraid at the same time too.

What if it’s his baby with Jennifer?

Can she really see him loving this baby after her three child was dead because of them?

Eleanora froze on her spot and didn’t dared to move to see the child in his hands.

But right then, The emperor himself turned around and Eleanora was so shocked that, she couldn’t believe her eyes.

‘A d-doll?!’

The doll had silver hair and blue eyes like her.

Eleanora didn’t moved as she still couldn’t process what’s really happening.

“Empress… Why don’t you help me to take care of our daughter?”

“…”

“She looks exactly like you… Don’t you wanna see how cute she is?”

“…”

Eleanora kept hearing the emperor’s words in a daze as she was completely shocked.

‘How could he call an doll, a child? That too, which looks like me?’

‘What happened to him-‘

“Why don’t you wake up, Elee?”

‘W-What?!’

This time, Eleanora was totally astonished by his words and turned her trembling body to approach the bed.

She wanted to see the lady in the bed.

‘i have been dead for almost two years here… Who is he calling then?’

Eleanora thought as she finally stood beside the bed and widened her eyes in horror.

She staggered as she saw herself laying on the bed, more precisely; her dead body.

Which has been frozen with magic and she could feel the emperor’s magic inside of her dead body.

‘I-Is he insane?!’

‘How c-could he…’

‘He is using transfer magic on a dead body to keep it fresh?!’

‘That too… He even attached the neck, which he personally cut off… by magic?!’

‘Is he serious?!’

Eleanora’s whole body started to tremble because of this, she never even imagined something this crazy in her dreams.

“Everyday is like hell here, Elee… Should i just come to you?”

“But i don’t think you would like to see me…”

“I should suffer more as you wished, My empress…”

“This is the last thing i can do now… I should suffer and see you hunting me every night in my dreams”

“I regret that i didn’t cherished you, when you was here…”

“I regret for not running to you back then, this is why even if you are so close to me… I can never see you look at me with a smile in your face…”

“Only if i could turn back time…”

A tear dropped from Eleanora’s eyes unintentionally as she finally saw him suffering with loneliness that she hoped for.

~I sincerely hope that Goddess smites you all for the murder of an innocent you are about to carry out.”

There is nothing I can do anymore to prove myself not guilty against the pile stacks of false evidence you have brought forward, but deep down… I hope you all suffer.

When I am gone and you are alone, I hope I haunt you. I hope my face is what you see when you finally meet your demise. My only mistake was ever loving anyone~

Eleanora had uttered those words in anger and frustration, but never imagined this words to really come true.

…..

‘Shouldn’t i feel relieved that he is finally feeling how i felt back then?’

‘How it feels like when your love is one-sided?’

‘To know that, the person you love will never love you back?’

‘What’s the point of regretting now?’
