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 72 – Business Affairs

Head Sage Yue and Crown Princess Pica were rendered speechless. Looking at their shocked expressions, Mana had to fight to stop herself from laughing out loud.

Crown Princess Pica was the one who actually regained her senses first. "You…made it yourselves…?" she asked in a daze. "For…me?"

Mana and Raven nodded.

Head Sage Yue had also recovered by now and there was a frown on his face. "Why is my son being made to work in the kitchen like a lowly cook?" he demanded. "I do not approve of it!"

"Oh? So you don't want our pastries?" Mana asked, raising an eyebrow mockingly at the man.

Crown Princess Pica laughed. "Don't bother with this sour faced wuss, my dear children. He has absolutely no appreciation for the good things in life!" she mocked.

And then, without waiting for anyone, she took a box of pastries from Raven and opened it. A tantalising aroma of vanilla and chocolate permeated the air. Mana and Raven had thoughtfully put a dessert fork in the box.
