"Ohh… my sweet daughter. You didn't visit your father for five whole months!"
The emperor's voice filled the room the moment the doors opened.
He did not wait even a second.
As soon as Charlotte stepped inside, he walked forward quickly and pulled her into a firm embrace.
The royal chamber was large and quiet, with a heavy sense of authority in the room.
The walls were covered with carefully chosen paintings, each one framed in gold and placed with purpose.
Tall shelves stood along the sides, holding books, scrolls, and small decorative pieces.
Soft light fell from above, making the polished floor and furniture shine faintly.
At the center of the room stood a large study table, wide and neatly arranged with documents and sealed letters.
It was clear that this was where the emperor spent most of his time working.
Around it were several chairs and sofas, placed in a way that made the space feel both formal and lived in.
