Chapter 166
"...You knew about it too?"
Not understanding those words, Liv continued speaking haltingly. She had certainly not said anything about her physical condition, and neither her court physician nor the imperial palace had examined Liv regarding her infertility, so how did he know? As Liv had a stupid expression on her face, Emmett opened his mouth with a pained look.
"I heard... from August."
"What?"
Liv couldn’t understand this situation at all. How did August know that Liv was infertile? And how did Emmett hear about it? At that moment, one thought suddenly crossed Liv’s mind.
"Don’t tell me... my physical condition is because of August?"
"Yes."
Emmett nodded with his eyes lowered.
"When I captured August before you arrived at the imperial palace... he said. That he had fed you poison to make you infertile."
"But if it was poison, it should have been cured when I went to the sanctuary... Ah, I see. If the effect had already appeared and my body was damaged, that poison might not have been detoxified..."
Liv became dazed and couldn’t continue speaking for a while. So this was ultimately August’s fault too? Just how much had August taken away?
The first emotion that arose was anger towards August. Liv thought she had completely defeated him, but even now that he had lost his life, he was still leaving traces to torment Liv. She felt her hatred for him burning at his persistent torment of her.
