Chapter 153
That was right. Until recently, the person Olivia was closest to was Deborah Zibel. The daughter of the Zibel family, which had been completely ruined by the Emperor, and the one who had led the bullying against Liv more than anyone else.
The young ladies in Deborah’s group, including Olivia, were all trembling in fear. They say that the insignificant girl they had been bullying has become the Emperor. Moreover, that woman was the last descendant of the true imperial family of the Holy Hilysid Empire, the Gracia family! What nonsense was this. Indeed, reality was stranger than fiction.
"What on earth will happen to me...?"
Would the newly crowned Emperor Liv really leave her alone? Although there might not be grounds to punish her, if she’s marked by the Emperor, no family would want to marry her, and she might even have to go to a convent.
Earnestly hoping that Liv would show mercy, Olivia trembled.

The ’Cemetery of Devotion’ for those who died loyal to the imperial family. Liv was standing there. On the three tombstones in front of Liv were names she knew well.
