I Won’t Accept Your Regrets

Chapter 160:



"Is there an antidote?" I looked at Leon in surprise.

"Leon!"

At this time, Lisa widened her eyes and tried to rush to Leon.

"Stop her."

By Raymond’s order, the knight overpowered Lisa and shut her mouth.

"If you lie, you die right there."

Leon nodded at Raymond's warning.

"There is. It was originally made with an antidote."

"Tell me where to find it."

“…Instead of telling you where the antidote is, I have a request for Your Majesty.”

"You dare to play with me in such a situation? Or maybe you want to beg for your life?" Raymond chided him, barely holding back his anger.

But Leon didn’t back down.

"My life doesn’t matter, Your Majesty… I ask you to spare the life of the First Prince."

Raymond's expression froze for a moment. This was an unexpected words.

"Are you really asking me to spare the blood of the former prince?"

"Your Majesty, the child didn’t know anything. This is just a boy who grew up believing that he is the son of the Emperor."

Leon banged his forehead on the floor and pleaded.

"And in this attempt he is also a pawn. He has been used a whole life, and until its very end, he must become a victim of the strife of adults? Isn't that too cruel? Please do mercy at least once."

"Do you think he will spare Edmund's life?! What a stupid joke!"

Lisa pulled away, biting the knight's hand, and shouted to Leon.

"We are already dead…!"

Soon her mouth shut up again and she was completely pressed against the ground.

"I promise. I will save the life of the First Prince. Tell me where the antidote is."

Raymond's words stopped Lisa's floundering.

She looked at him in amazement.

Leon spoke up hastily, fearing Raymond would change his mind.

“We've always kept the antidote and the poison in one place. So I'm pretty sure the antidote is somewhere in the mansion. A pink crystal bottle in a silver-edged wooden box is that antidote."

"Now…"

"I will go there."

This was an antidote to save Carlisle.

I'd be more relieved if I went to pick it up myself.. Raymond looked at me and nodded.

"Carter, take care of the Empress."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

* * *

When Ellie came out of the basement, Raymond waved his hand, wanting the knights to let go of Lisa.

As soon as the knights released her, Lisa burst into new delirium.

“I don't want mercy like that! How much more miserable are you going to make it? Come on, kill him! Well, you want it? You are going crazy, you want to kill me and Edmund!"

Lisa flashed her eyes and rushed to him.

"Kill him… Come on! Come on! Oh!"

The knights immediately caught her.

Screaming and madly rushing. Raymond could no longer see in this disgrace Lisa whom he once loved.

Raymond looked into Lisa's green eyes, full of frenzy.

"Kill me right now!"

There was a desire to cut off her limbs and throw them into the field, but that would only be enough for one time.

"You will be judged."

"Ha, judged?"

"You will clarify your sins and you will be judged for them. Even when you die, you will forever remain in history in the form in which you are now."

Raymond spoke like a cut.

“And I will show mercy to Edmund. May my name, my son's and my wife's name be glorified."

At Raymond's last words, Lisa broke down in anger and screamed.

"Aaghhhhh!"

To leave without even leaving a small scratch was a complete failure.

Resentment aside, Raymond summed it up with a small gesture:

"Ah. And if you want to know, your son covered his mother to the end. Even such a mother."

Lisa's fight stopped.

Even if he didn’t see it, Raymond guessed what Lisa's face was like now. Soon after, a cry resembling a cry touched Raymond's back. And at that moment, Raymond felt a hot pain in his stomach.

"…"

The poison seemed to dissolve his intestines.

Gathering his strength, he quickly left the prison, stained with suffering.

* * *

Lisa's mansion stood on the outskirts of the capital. Shabby and ugly, it seemed to resemble the end of his mistress.

The knights opened the doors and walked around the entire mansion.

"Your Majesty, you may come in."

"We are looking for a box with a silver frame. Look for her everywhere in the house."

The knights stirred at my command.

There was vanity here and there throughout the house.

But soon the knights just shook their heads, saying that they hadn’t found it.

Burning with alarm, I went to the maid that the knights had caught.

She seemed to be the only remaining maid in the ruined Sios family.

I gave Carter a meaningful look, and he drew his sword. The maid was frightened and whispered briskly.

"Empress, Your Majesty…!”

"If you answer my questions, your life will be spared."

"Yes, yes. I'll answer anything."

"Where do you keep the important items in the mansion?"

"Huh?"

"The place where the valuables of the Sios family are kept. Don't say you threw everything away."

The maid immediately opened her mouth.

“The library has a secret door to the basement. We have collected all the valuables in the basement. Please save me."

"Open the cellar door. Then I'll save you."

"Yes, yes!"

Cartel grabbed the maid by the neck and lifted her up.

We followed the staggering maid into the study.

The maid entered the library and pushed aside the bookshelf. Then a secret door opened.

I heard the footsteps of the knights who followed me.

I don't know how long Carlisle can bear.

I searched the entire basement full of paintings and gold.

"Your Majesty, we…"

I also ignored what the knights were saying.

I was digging here and there, and at some instant I saw a small wooden box.

‘This is it.'

I quickly lifted the box and saw a silver frame around it.

When I opened the lid with a trembling hand, I saw in it a pink crystal bottle.

"A pink crystal bottle in wooden box with silver edging.”

That's what Leon said.

"I found it."

Liquid in a small pink crystal bottle.

Now we can save Carlisle.

Shedding tears of joy, I grabbed the antidote and threw out the order:

"I found an antidote. I will return to the imperial palace immediately."

* * *

Returning to the Imperial Palace, I ran to the room.

"Carlisle.”

Carlisle's condition was more important, even though I was out of breath from driving the horse myself.

Although I found the antidote, I was wondering if Carlisle already died or if it has become an uncontrollable situation. I was disturbed by the worst imaginings.

“What is the condition of the Crown Prince?”

"The medicine is better than we thought, so it's okay."

The imperial physician reported quickly.

And I heard Raymond's voice:

"Ellie, is that an antidote?"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

I gave the doctor a small crystal bottle.

The Imperial Physician was immediately confused.

"Your Majesty the Empress. And it's all?"

"That's all. What happen? Maybe… Do you need more?”

"This is…"

The doctor looked at Raymond, embarrassed.

‘Isn't that enough? What should I do if the amount of antidote is insufficient even though I just came here?'

At the time when my heart was threatening to jump out through the ribs, Raymond asked the doctor:

"Isn't it enough for the prince?"

"No, that's not the point…"

"So what other problems? Hurry up and feed him."

When the doctor said that this would be enough, I breathed a sigh of relief, grabbed Carlisle's hand tightly and looked down.

‘Now Carlisle will live.’

"Yes, Your Majesty. But…"

All my attention was drawn to the antidote flowing into Carlisle's mouth.

So it escaped me how the doctor looks at Raymond, nor my father's lips as if they had something to say.

I held my breath.

Let us pray that the antidote will have an effect.

‘How long has it been?'

Carlisle's face, which had previously been contorted by pain, was now gradually relaxing.

The breathlessness gradually subsided.

"Let's take a look.”

The palace doctor bent down to examine Carlisle's condition. I held my breath and looked at him.

"Everything is fine?" I asked as soon as the imperial doctor finished the examination.

As soon as my heart trembled with anxiety, the imperial doctor said, relaxing his hardened face.

"Yeah. Fortunately, it works. I think you can relax now. Her Majesty."

"Uh…"

I burst into tears with a feeling of relief that filled my heart. I couldn't keep everything inside anymore.

"Carlisle, I'm sorry, I'm sorry you were hurt again."

I hugged Carlisle and shed tears. I hugged him for a long time and listened to my baby's heartbeat.
