“Are you sure you’re okay unnie?” Seohyun asked as she helped Tiffany unpack her things, trying to make sure her unnie is okay regarding to what happened earlier.

Tiffany just smiled at her dongsaeng.

“I’m okay Seohyun~ah, just a little bit under the weather and the jetlag. I’ll sleep it out. You take a rest now too.” Tiffany reassuringly said.

“Okay unnie, I’ll be in the next room if you need me.” Seohyun said and stood up to leave the room.

“Your Majesty, people from the south are trying to make a movement to oppose against your reign. People around the Kingdom are staring to doubt your s
