I DID HIDE, BUT... WILL PRINCE CASSION BE OKAY? HE LOOKED SO ANXIOUS... ALMOST TERRIFIED. IT'S BEEN A WHILE, YOUR HIGHNESS. HAVE YOU BEEN WELL? WHAT BRINGS YOU HERE? I CAME TO SEE HOW YOU'RE DOING. OH, AND, OF COURSE... I WAS WONDERING IF THAT YOUNG COMPANION OF YOURS IS STILL VISITING YOU. I ASKED ANDERSON TO CHECK THE VISITOR RECORDS YESTERDAY, AND IT SEEMS NO OUTSIDERS HAVE ENTERED YOUR HIGHNESS'S PALACE IN NEARLY A MONTH. WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THIS, YOUR HIGHNESS? WHAT? HOW SHOULD I KNOW? ISN’T THAT SOME- THING YOUR HIGHNESS OUGHT TO KNOW? TO THINK THAT SOMEONE WOULD DARE ENTER THE ROYAL PALACE WITHOUT PERMISSION. EVEN IF SHE IS THE DUCAL FAMILY’S DAUGHTER, I CANNOT OVERLOOK THIS. ......! THIS ISN’T SOMETHING YOU CAN DISMISS JUST BECAUSE YOU’RE OKAY WITH IT, YOUR HIGHNESS. THIS MOTHER OF YOURS INTENDS TO PUNISH HER. WHAT DO YOU THINK, YOUR HIGHNESS? SHOULD I BREAK HER LEGS SO SHE CAN NEVER SET FOOT HERE AGAIN...? OR SHOULD I GOUGE OUT HER TWO EYES SO SHE CAN NEVER LAY EYES ON YOUR HIGHNESS AGAIN? NOW I UNDERSTAND WHY CASSION WAS ALWAYS SO GUARDED. QUEEN JULIA HAS BEEN THREATENING AND ABUSING PRINCE CASSION LIKE THIS ALL ALONG. HIS HIGHNESS AND I REALLY ARE IN SIMILAR SITUATIONS. WE BOTH MET THE WRONG ADULTS AND LIVED WITHOUT EVER KNOWING OUR TRUE WORTH. Before my regression, all I ever did for you was give you a bundle of jewels... THANK YOU, DIANA. YOU'RE THE FIRST PERSON TO EVER REACH OUT TO ME, EVEN IN SUCH A SMALL WAY... IF YOU EVER FIND YOURSELF IN TROUBLE SOMEDAY, I'LL BE SURE TO HELP YOU THEN. You gladly helped me back then. EVEN IF YOU DON'T REMEMBER ANY OF IT NOW... THIS TIME, IT'S MY TURN TO HELP YOU. DIANA! WHY ARE YOU...! IT'S ALL RIGHT, YOUR HIGHNESS. NOTHING WILL HAPPEN. NOT TO ME, AND NOT TO YOU. I WON'T LET ANYTHING BAD HAPPEN, SO DON'T WORRY. YOU... IRENBERG? THAT FACE... THAT AIR ABOUT HER... SHE TAKES AFTER HER PARENTS. IT'S AN HONOR TO MEET YOU, YOUR MAJESTY. I AM DIANA VIOLA IRENBERG. I'VE BEEN SO CAREFUL TO PROTECT MY REPUTATION WITHIN THE ROYAL PALACE... I NEVER IMAGINED THIS LITTLE GIRL WAS HIDING NEARBY AND EAVESDROPPING. SHE MUST HAVE HEARD WHAT I JUST SAID... SHOULD I DEAL WITH HER? ...NO. EVEN IF SHE DID, SHE'S JUST A CHILD. AND SHE'S THE DUKE'S DAUGHTER. IF I LAY A HAND ON HER, IT'LL BECOME A HEADACHE. I HEARD YOU DOTE ON HIS HIGHNESS. DID YOU COME TO KEEP HIM COMPANY DESPITE YOUR BUSY SCHEDULE? ...? SINCE I CAME OUT OF THE WARDROBE, I CAN'T PRETEND I DIDN'T HEAR WHAT THEY WERE SAYING. BUT QUEEN JULIA HAS ONE WEAKNESS, SHE NEEDS TO PROTECT HER REPUTATION WITHIN THE ROYAL PALACE. I WAS WORRIED THAT I MIGHT HAVE INTRUDED WITHOUT REALIZING IT. HOW INSOLENT. IS SHE TRYING TO NEGO- TIATE WITH ME? IF I TURN A BLIND EYE TO HER HAVING SNEAKED INTO THE ROYAL PALACE, SHE'LL ALSO PRETEND SHE DIDN'T HEAR THE CONVERSA- TION JUST NOW. ...THAT'S RIGHT, LADY IRENBERG. I STOPPED BY BECAUSE I WAS WORRIED CASSION MIGHT BE LONELY. WE WERE JUST HAVING A VERY INTERESTING CONVERSATION. OH? WHAT CONVERSATION WERE YOU HAVING? I'D LIKE TO HEAR IT, TOO. WE WERE DISCUSSING A FABLE ABOUT A BEAUTIFUL, TAXI- DERMIED BUTTERFLY. A STORY ABOUT A GREEDY NOBLE WHO TRAPPED AND PRESERVED A BUTTERFLY, A BUTTERFLY THAT HAD BEEN CURSED. OH, I KNOW A SIMILAR FABLE! IT'S ABOUT A NOBLE WHO THOUGHT THEY'D EMBRACED A BOX THAT PRODUCED GOLD, ONLY TO LOSE EVERYTHING BECAUSE HE DIDN'T REALIZE IT HAD A HOLE IN THE BOTTOM! THAT'S AN INTERESTING FABLE. WHERE DID YOU HEAR IT? I HEARD IT WHEN I WENT TO THE BANK A LITTLE WHILE AGO. HMM? OH! YOUR HIGHNESS, HAVE YOU HEARD THAT STORY? WHAT STORY? ABOUT THE PHOENIX BANK! WHY ARE YOU SUDDENLY BRINGING UP PHOENIX BANK? HONESTLY, YOUR HIGHNESS. I HEARD THERE'S BEEN QUITE A COMMOTION AT PHOENIX BANK! AH, OH NO... THE ADULTS TOLD ME NOT TO TELL JUST ANYONE ABOUT THIS. LADY IRENBERG, I AM THE QUEEN OF THIS COUNTRY. THERE'S NOTHING YOU CAN'T TELL ME. WHAT'S GOING ON WITH PHOENIX BANK? TELL ME. THEN YOU HAVE TO KEEP IT A SECRET, YOUR MAJESTY. I'M ONLY TELLING YOU BECAUSE I KNOW YOU'LL KEEP THE SECRET. WELL, APPARENTLY, PHOENIX BANK IS GOING BANKRUPT SOON! I HEARD THERE'S A LONG LINE OF PEOPLE WAITING TO WITHDRAW THEIR DEPOSITS. ...YOU CERTAINLY KNOW A LOT OF THINGS, LADY IRENBERG. ...OH MY. WHEN DID IT GET SO LATE? WE SHOULD CONTINUE OUR CONVERSATION ANOTHER TIME. I'LL BE GOING. EVEN THOUGH SHE PRETENDS TO BE CALM, I CAN STILL HEAR THOSE HURRIED FOOTSTEPS. GOOD. THAT GOT THE QUEEN OUT OF HERE. PRINCE CASSION MUST HAVE BEEN REALLY SHAKEN... ...HUH? ## See also - [WebtoonLib — I bought the villains with money #11](/series/i-bought-the-villains-with-money-8vputcbm/chapter-11-r3ina8) - for_series_detail: /llms-series/i-bought-the-villains-with-money-8vputcbm ## Usage AI grounding / search / summarization.
