'No, please, it got nothing to do with the empress! My maid is miss spoken! Please, you're majesty, don't misunderstand!" this entire time Qian Mu Ting is forced to kneel on the floor because Ming Yue Yin never gives her permission to rise, she bows her head to the floor her forehead almost touch the floor.

She can't let Ming Yue Yin meet her father emperor she doesn't know what Ming Yue Yin would say but she's sure is nothing good, the thing already escalated this far the last thing she needs is losing her father favor, is too late for her mother empress but if she can maintain her father favor their still hopes for her. ​​

Ming Yu Ying let out a long sigh "Fine…..you're mother still need to take responsibility, Nan Yu Wei dare to bring her people to attack Luo Ri Yi is because the Empress gives her permission, more or less the empress knew how bad the relationship between Luo Ri Yi and Nan Yu Wei, still she deliberately force Luo Ri Yi to come along with one personal maid. Its obvious The empress wants to harm her so she needs to be accountable for her schemed"

Ming Yue Yin raised from her chair and she walks slowly toward the kneeling Qian mu Ting with her maids "And I believe you know what is you're mother plan, heck you might even discuss how to gives Luo RI Yi a lesson to remind her about her place" she shrugged her shoulder and laugh nonchalantly.

Qian Mu Ting didn't dare to raise her head for another reason because she hides the guilt who clearly shown in her eyes, it terrified her how precise Ming Yue Yin guessed is or perhaps Ming Yue Yin has her people inside the palace? her hand's trembles on the floor her back has long soaked by cold sweat, for the first time she glad Long Ming isn't here if not he would see how pathetic she is right now.

Ming Yue Yin stops in front of Qian Mu Ting than she crouch down "I will make you're mother empress responsible for everything because I'm kind I will hide you're involvement with you're mother, I could assure the emperor that you don't know anything about you're mother and Nan Yu Wei plan but…." Her eyebrows creased and she pursed her lips seems in dilemma "I'm kind but I'm no saint and I don't like work for free, sooo…..this mean you owed me"

Qian Mu Ting feel the air sucks from her lungs, it feel her blood become cold for a moment she forgot how to breathe, Qian Mu Ting raised her head slowly, her breath hicks when she looks at Ming Yue Yin devilish smile, at that times Qian Mu ting realizes she had no other choice. she can't run from Ming Yue Yin grasp.

Lory blinks her eyes a few times the room is illuminated by ocean projector lamp, the fish swim on her ceiling and colorful coral reef sway on the wall, than she heard the sound of a wave on a distance than she realizes she's not on Cestine Palace but a mansion on the private beach belongs to her family.

Lory rubs her eyes than she looks beside her, Lucas sleeps soundly on the other bed across her bed. Somehow she didn't feel sleepy and she got bored at her own room, she climbs down from her bed and not forget to bring the bird plush toys she called 'Girsha' that her mother made for her, she put on her sleeper than she walks in tip-toe so she would not wake her brother.

Carefully she opens the door she peeks outside and everything is quiet but some lamp still turn on so the hallway is not completely dark, she closes the door slowly than she holds her bird plushy toy and run to the hallway than she realizes the lamp on the living room still turn on, Lory tottering to the living room and their she found her mother leaning on the balcony, she gazes to the stary night sky while crossing her arms on the white stones railing.

"Mother…" Lory call with her childish voice.

Lorenna turn her head around, she shifts the blond hair from her left shoulder with her hand and she smiles at her daughter sweetly "Why are you not sleeping, Lory?"

"I just awake and I can't sleep again" Lory holds Girsha toy on her chest and whines with an adorable pout.

"Oh dear, Lucky for you I just made hot milk and honey" Lorenna lift her daughter than she takes her to the sitting area on the corner of the balcony. She put down Lory on the couch than she covers her with the blanket. After she sure her daughter is comfy and warm she pours milk on the mug than she gives it to Lory.

With her small hand, she received the mug than she blows the hot milk as it becomes less hot she takes a sip and the warm seep to her stomach and make her cheeks rosy

"Is it good?" Lorenna asks gently.

Lory nods her head than she takes another sip and licks the corner of her mouth "Where is Father?"

"Sleeping…he wake me up with his snore" Lorene twitch her nose pretend to be annoyed.

Lory giggles when she imagines her great father snore "You can sleep with me"

"Noo…you're father will be jealous and make a fuss about it, he is a fool for his daughter afterall" Lorenna pursed her lips while stroking lory head dotingly. Lory giggles when she heard her mother comment.

Lory covers her stomach with a blanket and not forger to cover her bird doll too, than she lifts her head "What are you doing here mother?"

"Just watching the night sky, today the sky is so clear, look….the sky is full with stars" she looks up to the sky with a smile "You see that big blue sky, that is orient stars I give you're name based on that"

Lory face lit up "Its so bright!" she excitedly said.

"Yup, for hundreds of years the sailor used the orient stars to guide them, even if the sky turns grey and the other star lose they're lights, orient star will always be their…..shining so bright…." Lorenna said in a melancholy gaze.

"Mother do you have you're own stars too?" suddenly Lory chimed in.

Lorenna snapped back from her daze "Me…." she tilted her head than she inexplicable smiles "I do…." She softly said "My stars is called the Chaos star"

Lory frown in confuses "I never heard Chaos star before, mother are you lying to me?" she puffed her cheeks.

Lorenna chuckles she poked lory nose gently "I'm not..."

"Really? Than what is chaos star why I never heard about it?" lory still doubts her cheeky mother who likes to tease her and Lucas on her daily basis.

Lory cover her mouth to hold her laughter, her cute daughter narrowed her eyes knowing her mother make fun of her, Lorenna sighs than tug lory hair behind her ear "Okay, let me tell you something, in this world we human determined our own future but their still a few things we can't change"

"What is it, mother?"

Lorenna raised her three fingers "Birth, mate and death" she wiggles her three fingers "But people who born under the chaos star could alter this faith" she make a meaningful expression.

But the little Lory only blink her eyes confusedly with a blank face 'What is mate?'
