"I'll get up first."
Riley stood up, wiping her mouth with a handkerchief. Her maids bowed in greeting, and Riley walked among them.
"there…!"
Jungkook shouted to grab Riley, but Riley ignored him and walked away with her back to him.
Riley had already gone so far away that Jungkook couldn't see her, but only then did Jungkook express his anger.
"I'm going to drag you down! How long do you think you can hold out there?"

Riley returned to her room and rummaged through administrative documents. Her desk was filled with documents ranging from simple policy documents to response measures for wildfires in the southern region.
As Riley processed the paperwork, her face grew increasingly worried and dark.
"under……."
Riley clutched her head and thought for a while before deciding to go for a walk to clear her head.

The royal garden was as grand as its name. Riley picked a flower and floated it in a puddle formed by the rain the night before.
Riley, who was leaning against a tree and blankly gazing at the flowers swaying in the gentle waves created by the wind, soon fell asleep.
"You shouldn't sleep here."
A man approached Riley, took off his jacket, and covered her with it, saying something. The man then sat down next to Riley, looked at her, and said,
"Congratulations, Your Majesty the Empress."
It was Jimin, the Marquis of the Lucette family. Jimin looked at Riley with a meaningful expression, then quickly left.
"Then see you at the party."

"eww...."
Riley woke up to the warm sunlight on her face. The dazzling sunlight and cool breeze brought a smile to her face.
Then, Riley suddenly noticed the jacket she was wearing. She turned it over, examined it, then left it with her maid and left.
"Who is it?"
Riley tilted her head in puzzlement and returned to the palace.
