Becoming The Wife Of a Grand Duke Chapter 27
"Sorry?" Regina asked, not hearing the words of the stranger. "My name is Hertia Mertian," he replied. "Hertia Mertian? Oh my, I apologize for not recognizing you, Grand Duke! But since we're dancing, I couldn't greet you properly," Regina said, feeling guilty. Regina regretted not recognizing the Grand Duke who was at the party now. Indeed, the man standing in front of her, Regina had never seen in her first life. She had only seen him in the newspapers, and even then, the portrait of the Grand Duke was very unclear. So, she only knew his name, never having seen him in person. Even during her time with Merry, she only caught a brief glimpse of him. "I forgive you, because you were the one who was once betrothed to me!" Hertia’s words made Regina shocked. She had never heard of this before. Neither in her past life nor in her current one. But why was the Grand Duke saying that they had once been betrothed? "I've never heard of that, so maybe you're mistaking me for someone els

Hertia chuckled softly upon hearing what Regina said, a faint smile forming on his lips, which made Regina furrow her brows. "Why are you laughing like that? Was something I said funny?" Regina tilted her head to the left. "Because you rejected me earlier, I feel no need to accept your offer. Besides, there's no benefit in marrying you!" Hertia whispered into Regina's ear. Regina fell silent, agreeing with what Hertia had said. Seeing this, Hertia decided to stand up and walk away, leaving Regina alone. "Wait!" Regina called out, stopping the tall, handsome man in his tracks. Hertia turned and looked at her closely. "What is it?" Regina twisted the edge of her dress, then looked up at Hertia with a serious expression. "I need to tell you something important. I’m going to tell you about the future!" Regina said loudly. Hertia's expression turned serious as he approached Regina. "Are you a witch?" Regina shook her head. If she had nodded, Hertia would have asked her to prove he

Selina widened her eyes in surprise at Deptian's punishment. "Count, you know that Selina is still a child. This punishment is too much-" Elisabet's words were cut off. "That's why she's always throwing tantrums! I hope you're not questioning the punishment I gave Selina, your daughter!" Deptian snapped in annoyance. Deptian shooed the two women out of his office as the man sighed heavily. Regina smiled triumphantly; she felt so happy. "I hope you don't dwell on things like this for too long," Regina wished to her father. "How can you not think about it? Because at first I thought your relationship was very good, so I didn't worry too much about you. But it turns out I was judging the wrong person," Deptian said, rubbing his face roughly. "It doesn't matter, Father. Humans are not perfect creatures, so it's only natural to make mistakes. You don't have to be discouraged," Regina said, trying to encourage her father. Even though those words meant more to Regina, she had made ma

Regina's eyes rounded, and her mouth opened slightly in shock at what she was hearing. She had no idea that Nin was Elisabet's illegitimate child."Wait! Are you saying that Nin is an illegitimate child?" Regina raised her eyebrows in surprise."Yes. She became pregnant out of wedlock, and the man's father was unknown. Even Countess Elisabet hid the child in an orphanage, and only in recent years has she brought the man to live with her as her personal physician.""I was very impressed with the Countess, she was very good at hiding this for several years. Until her earl husband became suspicious of her, that's great!" The honeybees praised Elizabeth, clapping their hands.In Regina's heart, she agreed with what the honeybee had said. About how great Elizabeth was at hiding the facts about Nin until Deptian and herself died.No wonder Nin obeyed Elisabet so well. There was something extraordinary between them."Don't be so sad, Miss! You already know that, so just tell the count, or ra

There was silence, but suddenly, Deptian threw things with a red face. "I didn't know, where did you find out such a big thing?" asked Deptian in a high voice. Regina covered her mouth; she didn't believe that her father didn't know something that big. But that had already happened; her mouth had revealed a big secret. Deptian grabbed the long sword beside his workbench and hurriedly ran to Elizabeth. Regina followed with mixed feelings: She was scared, disappointed, and happy at the same time. The department cut down Elisabet; it happened so fast for Regina. She couldn't stop her father from doing such a thing. Next to Elisabet's body was Selina, crying her eyes out, her half-sister hysterical about what had happened to her mother. "Are you happy now?" shouted Selina as she pointed at Regina's face with reddened eyes. "Regina!" snapped Deptian, interrupting Regina's reverie. "Oh dear, I was dreaming. But why does it feel real!" Regina shouted to herself. "Why were you daydrea

Regina prepared a welcome for Doctor Nin, for the man had managed to cure her long-sick cousin in the not-too-distant future. Not just a cousin, the uncle had also been instrumental in managing one of Count Grana's family mines and had invested in several Deptian ventures. Not his father's younger brother, just a cousin. Huh, what's the point of preparing for something so trivial! Even though he is also one of the people who let me die because of his mother's actions! Regina cursed inwardly. Regina was very upset about preparing an event for Elisabeth's illegitimate child. However, this might make Elisabet's face look surprised and pale at the same time. It might as well be good! The dinner, with its many sumptuous dishes, made Regina look contentedly at the well-laid table. She had bathed and dressed nicely while she waited for the chef to prepare the dishes she had requested, and when he was done, they were served. "It smells so appetizing!" said Regina as she sniffed the frag

"Why do you seem to dislike me from the moment you wake up, when I take care of you like my own biological daughter!" Elisabet said after Selina and the servants left, somehow feeling that Regina knew a lot about her. Regina smiled, giving her mother a sardonic look. "If you really think I'm your biological daughter, why do you want to kill me?" There was no expression of surprise from Elizabeth, but her eyebrows rose and fell at her stepdaughter's question. "What do you mean? I want to kill you, since when?" Regina clucked in annoyance at her mother's stupid question. "Don't pretend, I know very well," Regina snapped with a cold look on her face. Just as Deptian was staring at Elizabeth, the woman became irritated by Regina's gaze. "Don't look at me like that! I didn't do anything to you, if you mean Selina pushed you down. It wasn't me who told her to do that, it was Selina herself!" There was a sigh from Regina, then the beautiful woman slowly approached her mother. "Then wh

"I'm just saying, Miss! Anyway, we have to start choosing what clothes and accessories to wear when we go to the Grand Duke's residence!" Merry said, changing the subject. Regina understood that Merry was deflecting the conversation, but she couldn't solve this problem first. Since the most important thing was to meet Grand Duke Hertia, what did he want from her? "Alright. Now choose a simple outfit, I don't want to look overdressed!" Regina ordered. "Why wear simple clothes? Aren't you going to the Grand Duke's residence? So you have to wear the nicest clothes," Merry explained enthusiastically. Merry was very excited to dress Regina. She knew now what it would be like to have someone she could dress to her heart's content, especially since Regina was so beautiful to Merry. "No! I don't want to be seen as flirting with this man, so I want to look plain!" insisted Regina, not wanting to be interrupted. Merry decided to nod her head obediently, because Regina was the employ

Elisabet looked very scary to Selina as she threw everything in her room while screaming hysterically.Selina cried out in fear. She didn't dare to move, just cowering in the corner of the room, hoping not to be hit by her mother's thrown objects."Kyaa!" cried Selina as one of the objects hit her.Selina cried as red liquid flowed from her head."Selina," shouted Elisabet, who came to her senses after hearing her daughter's cries.She went over, but Selina buried her face in her knees as her body shook."Child, don't be afraid of me. I'm not going to hurt you, so just calm down," Elisabet said softly as she stroked Selina's head.Selina raised her head and looked up at her mother with tear-filled eyes. "Are you going to kill me?"With shaking hands, Elisabet wiped away the rest of Selina's tears. "No, why would I kill you? You are my dearest child."Elisabet hugged Selina tightly, occasionally wiping away the tears that continued to stream down her face."I'm sorry," she said softly.

Regina hit her face with the pillow hard, startling Merry, who was still in the room."Miss, you'll get hurt!" Merry scolded with a panicked expression."Haha... Merry, you're so funny, saying I'll get hurt from this soft pillow." Regina staggered as her head felt too dizzy."I already told you, Miss," Merry said, quickly helping her back to bed.Regina couldn't argue with what Merry said. In fact, as far as she remembered, she had only hit the pillow lightly."Are you feeling better, Miss? If so, we should change into something more comfortable first," Merry suggested.Regina nodded and followed Merry's suggestion. After all, there was no way she was going to wear this heavy dress to bed. It was uncomfortable, distracting, and would make her too hot all night.Painstakingly, Merry helped Regina change into her nightwear. All this time, Merry had been trying her best to serve her mistress. She often sought guidance from Cellin, the butler, to improve her skills."Grand Duke, why are y

"If the Countess has agreed, it means that the Count has agreed with me. As I said, I will take care of everything. Of course, I will do it with as much fanfare as possible," Hertia said, looking happy to hear the Countess' answer.Deptian could say nothing more. He could only sigh at his wife's actions. Had he known, he would have locked Elisabet in her room on the pretext that she was ill.But it was too late, so Deptian just accepted it. After Hertia left, he planned to scold Elisabet for interrupting him while he was talking.All talks went well, and Hertia decided to look around the Count's residence, as she wanted to talk to Regina alone."Very well. If the Grand Duke would like to look around with Regina," Deptian said, giving permission.Regina nodded and approached her future fiancé. They went out together."Are you satisfied?" Deptian said curtly and left Elisabet alone.Deptian was reluctant to scold Elisabet because Hertia was still in her residence."I didn't expect you t

The very different-looking servant left immediately, hurrying to the room where Elisabet was."Madam, may I come in?" She knocked softly on the door, afraid that someone might see her.The door opened, revealing Elisabet with a disheveled appearance and puffy eyes. The madam looked at the servant with a blank expression."Why are you here, Pio?" Elisabet asked, closing the door to her room before allowing Pio to enter."I have something important to tell you," Pio whispered softly as she glanced around, worried that someone might be watching."What?!" Elisabet asked sarcastically. She didn’t like anyone seeing her in her current state."Let me in first, Madam," Pio pleaded with a desperate expression.Reluctantly, Elisabet let Pio in, even though she truly didn’t want anyone in her room except her son.Elisabet walked in first while Pio closed the door behind her."Tell me quickly!" Elisabet demanded, glaring at Pio. She was impatient to hear what the servant had to say."I heard that

"Because you ordered this servant. You will still be punished, I will take away your power right now, no monthly budget for three months and after that all budgets are restricted!" Deptian pointed at Elisabet face, she still looked very angry."What?" Elisabet did not look unhappy."Why, you don't accept the decision I made?" snapped Deptian in a high tone."No, I'm just ...." Elisabet did not continue her sentence, she looked away."Good. You must realize that the position of a hostess in a noble family is not to be taken lightly! So I'll leave this task to Regina, after all she has to learn to take care of everything when she becomes a countess!" Deptian quickly left Regina's room.Paying no attention to his wife, who was still sitting on the cold floor, Deptian continued to walk quickly.Regina chuckled, but Elisabet did not hear it because she was lost in thought.'It may not be what I want, but the important thing is that she can't do anything for these three months!' Regina said

"Worried? Can you clearly explain what that means? Where did the word worry come from when you put antidepressants in my food without my knowledge!" Regina shouted, her voice shaking.Regina clenched her fists under the covers, wanting to curse Elisabet. But she realized that her father would not like her being rude to her stepmother."I told you I was worried about you, Regina. So don't misunderstand me about the medicine," Elisabet said, wiping away the tears that had fallen from the corners of her eyes.Regina chuckled in annoyance. There was always an excuse coming out of her stepmother's mouth."Then why are you worried about me?" Regina looked at Elisabeth sarcastically, as if she wanted to swallow the woman alive."I have a feeling you are having a hard time thinking about the intruder. Since you hate me, I dare not even approach you."Elisabet paused her words, busy wiping away the tears that seemed to be forced out."Because I was thinking of you, who must be having a hard ti

Regina slowly unfolded the crumpled paper and read the contents. It was true that Elisabet had bought a lot of medicine. This made her even more certain that Elisabet was really doing this.'No wonder I feel different these days,' she muttered to herself.Regina stared at the paper that was the receipt for the medicine from the drugstore in the capital. Who else but Nin would have given her mother the prescription."But we still need more evidence, because she'll definitely be evasive if it's just this note." Regina squeezed the note."How about we take some of the food, miss?" asked Merry as she looked at the food scattered on the floor."Take the food and put it in a small plastic bag. Then you can walk out quietly and give it to the doctor in the capital!" Regina ordered Merry.Teri looked down, she didn't think so. Instead, she dropped all the food on the floor, leaving it scattered all over the place, not even thinking about taking it to a doctor to corroborate her evidence."Ye

Regina felt bad for Teri, but she couldn't forget what the woman had done. Even if Teri had been set up, Regina still thought the waitress was guilty."I hope nobody got hurt! But if any part hurts, you can come to Nin for treatment." Regina walked away, leaving Teri alone.Regina walked down the corridor, daydreaming all the way, thinking that she left this residence when she married Grand Duke Hestian Mertia. Her name would also change to Regina Mertia, no longer Regina Grana.'Is he really going to divorce me when it's all over?' she muttered to herself.Regina's heart hesitated, but she had no choice. Especially now that her life was in danger. So there was no way she could back out, but she was worried about her father, who was living with a bad person. No matter how her father behaved, she was still her only family and also the biological father who had raised her to be as big as she was now."Ugh, my head hurts again!" Regina groaned softly.Regina held on to the wall because h

Regina didn't show a surprised look or anything, she just had a flat expression as she listened to her father's answer. Since she had heard from Sio first, Regina asked that because she wanted to hear it straight from the Deptian's mouth."But don't worry, I'll catch him no matter what. I'm sure that even if he's very good at disappearing, he'll still be found!" Deptian reassured Regina, as he was afraid she would get upset."Yes, Father! I believe in you, you'll find this person sooner or later. But as I said before, please investigate the insiders first, for fear that it might not be someone from afar who is treacherous".Regina decided to leave without saying goodbye, leaving Deptian who had been silent.'I hope Father will expose Elisabet as soon as possible. Then I will bring more evidence!' Regina hoped in her heart.Even though the only evidence Regina had was Jake's confession, if there was strong evidence from her father that Elisabet wanted to kill her. Then it would incrimi
