The Evil Emperor's Fragile Heart

Mana was a brilliant young lawyer working for the biggest international law firm in the world. With her prodigious talents, influential family and a perfect fiancé, her life was considered a dream come true…until a freak accident cost her everything. Or so she thought. After three years of being confined to a hospital bed, the man she had loved with all her heart told her about his betrayal as he slit her throat. The next moment, Mana found herself in the body of a sickly ten-year-old princess of the same name, in a world she thought to be fictional. “The Legend of Mars” was an ancient epic chronicling the adventures of the divine King Mars and his virtuous wife, Queen Astra, and their triumph over the evil, half-demon emperor Raven. Princess Mana was the unfortunate half-sister of Princess Astra, who died at the age of ten…and somehow pulled in Mana’s soul. And thus, Royal Princess Mana decided to make the best of her new chance at life and seek happiness. However, she soon found that what she had read in “The Legend of Mars” and the actual people she met were very different. Why was the divine child Mars an insufferable brat? Why was the virtuous Astra plotting nefarious schemes? Why did the brother of Mars look exactly like her traitorous fiancé of her previous life? And the meek little boy she accidentally rescued was actually the fearsome evil emperor …? But why on earth was he clinging to her and looking at her with puppy eyes?

Chapter 115 – Father Aqi

Exactly as Imperial Physician Kale had predicted, General Aquila woke up the next day.

Crown Princess Pica, who was sitting by the side of his bed, was immediately alert.

"Aqi?" she called softly.

General Aquila blinked in confusion, and stared at her face for quite some time. Then a smile bloomed on his handsome face. "Pica…?" he asked hoarsely. "Are you really here? Am I…am I dreaming?"

Crown Princess Pica immediately threw her arms around him, hugging him tightly. She burst into tears.

General Aquila patted her back with familiar movements. The two of them had grown up together, and they had always been the best of friends even before they got married to each other. It was nothing new for General Aquila to soothe an upset Crown Princess Pica.

"What's wrong?" he asked quietly.
