I’ll Quit as The Empress

Four days later, as soon as the day dawned, the edict had dropped.

It wasn’t surprising. Fabian’s order didn’t delay for a day as if he had waited for this moment.

He hated annoying things, and now that Evelyn was such a being. So he definitely wanted to get rid of it as soon as possible.

“The Empress, Evelyn Felice, please listen to the edict.”

The palace aide himself came directly to the Empress’s residence and began to read the emperor’s edict.

“On this last day, I decide to divorce Evelyn, the royal princess of the Felice Kingdom, under the authority of the Vatican, because she has a very serious and fatal reason for no longer being able to maintain her marriage further.”

Indeed, there was a strong sense of anger at Fabian’s decree after Evelyn called for Vatican interference, which Fabian despised the most.

“At the same time as this decree, the Empress’s status and all privileges will be taken away, and Evelyn Felice is ordered to leave the imperial family and return to her home country.”

That was the substance of the edict. Evelyn nodded towards the aide. She had prepared everything, including Lily, a maid from her homeland, when she left.

Everything she received on her behalf as an Empress was left intact. It included the gifts she got when she married Fabian. Evelyn went out to empty-handed just like she came to the imperial family for the first time.

“Let’s go.”

Evelyn left her “old home” without looking back. There was no regret in this beautiful prison. At the entrance to the imperial palace, a carriage from the Kingdom of Felice was waiting for her.

“I’m here to pick up the princess.”

A woman with a boring voice was staring at Evelyn for a long time. Nora, her nanny, who had raised her since childhood, came here to meet her.

“Thank you.”

The wind was blowing; Evelyn climbed onto the carriage of her home country where she had missed. Lily, her maid, and Nora, her nanny, were in the carriage together, creating a heavy silence.

“What’s wrong with the atmosphere? I did this because I wanted to.”

Only Evelyn’s voice was bright.

“Really, are you all right?”

Nora asked anxiously, but Evelyn nodded more gallantly than ever. Lily seemed relieved to see it.

“I didn’t suit the imperial family from the start. I want to live freely now.”

Evelyn was smiling brightly. A smile that had never seen in the imperial family. It was Evelyn’s true self.

“If you are fine with this, Her Majesty….”

“Lily, I’m no longer Your Majesty.”

There were a lot of things that need to be fixed in the future. But, Evelyn, who had returned to her original position as a princess, was ready to accept everything.

“Nora, my father must be very angry, right?”

Nora sat in silence with a pained smile.

“But your father sent me to meet you.”

It was obvious how upset her father was about his divorced daughter. But it was much better to listen to her father’s scolding than to live and hold her breath beside the cold Fabian.

Her father, The King, was always blunt. But when Evelyn asked for a divorce, he asked the Vatican without saying anything.

“It’s all right. I’m used to being scolded now.”

Everyone in the imperial family watched Evelyn and tried to crack down on her. This and that were both against the law, and it was forbidden to show emotion on the face.

“The imperial family was too much for me.”

She was unable to do as she wished. One gesture, one view, and the imperial family was a beautiful cage. Fabian, who was born and raised there, might be fine. But it was too much for a woman from another country like Evelyn to adapt.

“I miss Queen mother’s voice.”

Only

“Are you serious?”

Nora asked back unknowingly. The princess, who was innocent and bright, had suffered so much that she felt sick to say such a thing.

“Well, maybe not when it comes to it.”

Evelyn laughed more happily on purpose. Perhaps she knew her feeling. She couldn’t guarantee that her future would be bright. Few would welcome the princess back as a divorcee.

But that’s fine, though. If she’s sick, she could say she’s sick. And if she was sad, she could say she’s sad. It was enough for her if she no longer needed to conceal her feelings.

So Evelyn, aged 20, quit the Empress.

She had a longer youth to live on.
