The Exiled Goddess Who Founded a Dynasty - Episode 7

In the reception hall Eva brazenly takes the crown prince's seat, triggering outrage from courtiers who demand she move. Nobles cite protocol; Uncle Evan warns the family will be blamed if the insult to His Highness spreads. Guards are ordered to seize her and throw her into the river, but someone steps forward and declares, "I will not allow anyone to harm Ms. Smith," halting the immediate assault. The Archduke arrives, takes charge and calls for gifts. The arrest is paused, yet Eva's safety and the household's reputation hang unresolved under the Archduke's scrutiny.
