"I'm sorry ......"

Evan took a sip of tea. "I've heard a lot of sorry sentences. Now I want to hear something else. ”

Lucresa swallowed.

What kind of words does Evan like to hear?

"Because...... I shouldn't fail to believe you. I should have thought that you liked me, Evan you. I should have faith in you. Sorry ......"

As she spoke, Lucresa's head lowered, and she almost arched into her arms.

Because her head was so low, she didn't notice the slightly drooping corners of Ivan's mouth.

"You don't trust me, that's one thing, but it's not the most important thing." Evan sighed softly and said softly, "I also did something wrong. After all, no one trusts someone else for no reason. If I can do better, at least you won't be too cranky. ”

Lucresa's heart was beating more and more.

That's just one aspect, but what about the others?

Something else, what she really thought in her heart, she couldn't say. Absolutely cannot be said.

Fortunately, Evan didn't plan to hang her again. He took a sip of his tea and continued, "And then there's your distrust of yourself.

"Lucresa, don't forget, you are not only my wife, you are also the future Empress of the Empire, and you will become the mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother of the future Emperor of the Empire. You are their role model, a haven of warmth and strength for them until they grow into qualified heirs to the empire. At the same time, you have to give them a human side, so that they can be a complete and sound person while becoming a monarch. I can't teach them this, only you, only you, the mother of the whole empire, can do it.

"So you have to be brave yourself. You can't cringe like that anymore, Lucresa. I can protect you, but if I have to protect you all the time, there are many things that I can't do. You have to be able to keep up with me, and we can move forward together. You know what?

"Today's matter, you said that your maid was the one who made the assertion, and I believe you. Just Lucresa, you're going to learn your lesson. You're just my fiancée now, and I'm just a mere candidate for the throne, and I haven't really ascended to that much-anticipated throne yet. From today onwards, you will be more and more exposed to the eyes of the public, and the pressure you will be under will increase. There will be countless people around you, trying to sway your thoughts. So you must not easily reveal your true heart, Lucresa. You have to be like a mussel, protect your soft heart, and if there is the slightest sign of suspicion, close your heart and put on hard armor.

"Otherwise, Lucresa, you alone will bear the consequences of your creation. For example, today's incident, this is your maid's assertion, but look at Luo Xiu, except for the time when he forced the person behind the scenes, did he even look at the maid more? He didn't even look at you, he just came to me. Why? Because you are attached to me. With great power comes great responsibility. You are the ones close to me, so I am responsible for you. ”

After saying that, Ivan had a dry mouth.

He hadn't said so much at once in years. Even in today's negotiations with Luo Xiu, most of the work of speaking was undertaken by his henchmen.

But even with a dry mouth, Evan didn't even bother to drink a sip of tea. He looked at Lucresa eagerly. These are his heartfelt words. Lucresa, please listen to it, okay?

Lucresa was thinking.

Evan was willing to believe that she was listening, but the amount of information was a bit large, so he was digesting it. Look, Lucresa's sitting posture is much more relaxed than before.

Finally, Lucresa raised her eyes. That action, that demeanor is very much the charm of a small jasper. Then she asked expectantly, "So...... You'll protect me, right? ”

Evan paused. Lucresa's answer was not quite what he had thought. "Well, of course."

A flush floated over Lucresa's face. "That'...... I will also try to believe in myself. As long as you are by my side, as long as you have me in your heart, I will not be afraid of anything. ”

Ivan paused again.

In other words, as long as he's there, Lucresa can do a good job, right?

Ivan was satisfied with such an answer.

After all, she was his fiancée, how could he turn his back on her. So he will definitely be by Lucresa's side, then Lucresa will definitely be a perfect queen.

As for the rest...... He only needs a queen, and that's enough.

Enough is enough.

Ivan, who was a little distracted, didn't react until someone outside knocked on the door for the third time.

The guard whispered, "Your Highness...... Your Majesty, please come over. ”

Evan immediately got up and said to Lucresa that I will come when I go, and walked out quickly, regardless of Lucresa's reaction.

After he went out, the guards did not leave immediately, but tactfully asked Lucresa to leave Evan's room.

Lucresa's freshly blooming smile froze on her face.

She gracefully stood up and strolled out of Evan's room. The moment before the guards behind her closed the door to Ivan's room, she took one last look through the crack in the door.

It's a neat room that is almost unpopular.

She almost forgot that she wasn't the mistress of the room yet.

Ivan walked briskly through the starship.

His father, the former Duke of Hillon, now the new emperor of the Empire, was very fond of holographic projections. Accessing holographic projection on a starship is not as convenient as on a planet, and it is generally necessary to go to a dedicated projection well.

But in fact, the equipment in his study is fully capable of supporting communication with the emperor.

So why did he come out subconsciously?

The reason can only be Lucresa. He doesn't like to have people from other forces around when he is in the office. Unfortunately, Lucresa is also included.

After all, Lucresa is from the Aindo family. The two families formed a solid alliance because of their marriage, but since it is an alliance, no matter how strong it is, it will fall apart because of the interests to the left. Since ancient times, there have been many couples in the emperor's house who have shared the same bed and dreamed differently. There are some things that Lucresa can't let know about yet.

Of course, Evan believes this is temporary. He wouldn't let himself and Lucresa get into this situation. Someday, Lucresa will put the interests of the Garrett family first.

Take your time.

Thinking wildly, Evan walked into the projection room. After closing the door, Ivan pressed the button on the workbench to turn on the projection. Soon, with a buzz of electromagnetism, a majestic figure appeared in front of him suspended in the air.

Ivan bowed deeply. "I've seen Your Majesty." (To be continued.) )
