After crying, it was Her Majesty's closest friend, Madam Cameron Wesarcia who dragged Alanis back to Hamilton Palace. According to a palace servant who witnessed the whole incident, Madam Wesarcia gave a nice slap to the ruler of the Empire. The Empress was stunned and immediately stopped crying.
"What use is there of crying? You are not a cute wife who is bullied!" Cameron was furious. She did not seem to care that the Empress' face was red and swollen. She gazed upon her masterpiece as if she was proud of it.
Alanis touched her cheeks. She smiled bitterly. (Look at how I am doing my duty as a Titan Empress? Getting slapped by a Marquise!) Alanis did not think that it was something punishable but instead she appreciated Cameron's courage. The ruler of the Empire treated it like a nightmare. She stumbled into the huge palace bathroom with a bunch of panic-stricken servants.
