Jordan just stared at the couple's departure, unable to refute the master's words. Since he was just an ordinary worker, how could a subordinate sue his employer? It was possible that Jordan would be fired for his insolence.

Meanwhile, Regina and Hertia were on their way to Count Grana's residence. Regina was thrilled to see her father after such a long time. It had probably been almost a month since they had seen each other, but of course, she was working with Terri to keep an eye on the Count's residence.

Afraid that if something unfortunate happened there, Regina would not know about it, and her father would lose his life again. At the thought, the body trembled.

"What about the Countess? Did she do anything while you were away?" Hertia opened the conversation, not wanting her wife to keep it to herself.

"She was silent the whole time, she didn't move. That's what Terri said," Regina said as she continued to twist the hem of her dress.

    After explaining everything to her father, Regina decided to go home. Of course, first, she convinced Deptian not to touch Elisabet. Because behind that person were the concubine and the crown prince.Afraid that it would be bad for all of them, Deptian was asked to pretend not to know and keep quiet. Let Regina handle everything because he didn't want to lose his father for the second time.During the ride home, the husband and wife were silent. The atmosphere in the carriage was very cold and tense."Why didn't you tell me all this?" There was a heavy voice from Hertia; the man was very disappointed in his wife."Why should I tell you? Because you must think I'm a crazy woman," Regina argued."Why are you so sure I would call you that? You haven't even tried, but why jump to conclusions?" Hertia's blue eyes shone in the reflected light, and he continued to stare at Regina with a look of disappointment."I don't have to tell you that, because our relationship is just a contract marri

    Regina thought hard about what to do, but then she saw her husband walking out, neatly dressed and carrying some things. She hurried out to see what Hertia would do.Unfortunately, by the time Regina reached the front door, the man was already on a horse and far away from where she was. Only Zena was there, leaving Regina to stare at her butler."Where is duke going with all that luggage?" Regina looked at Zena, for the butler had been here all along."Didn't you tell Duchess that you wanted to go back to the Grand Duchy because there was a serious situation there?"Instead of answering, Zena asked Duchess a question. Zena's face scrunched up, a sign that she was surprised that Regina did not know where her husband had gone.Regina paused to neutralize the pain in her chest from not knowing what had happened."Oh, yes. Maybe, he orgot to tell me." Regina laughed awkwardly, trying to hide her feelings."That may be the case, Duchess. He were in such a hurry that he didn't have time to

    The carriage had already stopped before the Grand Duke's residence, and Regina ran over with bated breath. Zena's face was tense, but the butler still greeted her with a worried expression."What happened? Why are you dressed like that, Duchess?" Zena helped Regina into the house.Regina remained silent, not wanting to tell her what had happened. It was too depressing to remember what had happened earlier; how could she be stuck at a party?The Crown Prince deliberately pecked her on the lips in front of everyone who hated Regina or the Grand Duke. So, that the rumour would spread immediately, even though they knew that Iaros was the guilty one.Knowing Regina did not want to answer her question, Zena remained silent. Afraid of being accused of being presumptuous, she quickly helped the lady into the room to tidy up her dishevelled appearance."I'll make some hot tea first, so Duchess will feel better." Zena left Regina clean, and changed into her nightgown.Regina looked down in sile

    Hertia rode he horse at full speed, not stopping to rest he tired body because he was too worried about his wife, he felt guilty, leaving Reginane without saying goodbye in a place that still felt unfamiliar to the beautiful woman.On the third day after Zena sent the letter, the butler waited anxiously, hoping duke would come as soon as possible. It was unbearable to see Regina looking so lethargic from being alone without a husband to accompany her in despair."Duchess, go to sleep first so you can feel calmer." Zena helped the lady lie down and then covered her.Zena decided to finish Regina's work, which was now neglected. The young woman had lost the spirit to do anything because she felt dizzy from the rumours circulating.While in Regina's study, Zena heard a commotion outside. She quickly went over to see who the troublemakers were, even though her mistress had just fallen asleep."Duke?" Zena looked at duke in disbelief that Hertia had returned so quickly."After I read the l

    Hertia clenched his fists in anger; the man was furious at what Iaros had done. He wanted to tear the Crown Prince to pieces, and then hang him in front of all the people of the kingdom. He hoped they would all know what the Grand Duke had done to the man who had dared to disturb his wife.But that was impossible for Hertia because Iaros was no ordinary man; it would make things difficult for he, and Regina. It wouldn't be a problem if it was just him, but if Regina was involved in what he was doing, it might make her even sadder."What if we ask the Queen for help? But we still need to intervene to quell the rumors while asking the Count, Baron, and William to weaken the power of the Empress Consort, and that bastard Crown Prince. Since the center of their power is in the Marquis Cudo Maharani, it will definitely be good if we disturb that pot-bellied man," Hertia suggested after trying to think with a cool head.The next day, Regina went on a rendezvous with her husband in the capit

    "Is it really like that? I'm afraid I'm not aware of these cheap rumors, probably because I'm too busy with the work I've recently taken on." Anastasya brewed her tea calmly, for this was what they had planned."It seems you are consumed by cheap rumors, Your Majesty the Queen. You have no idea how tired I am of facing the Grand Duke every night." Regina moved her hair to the left, revealing a red patch on the right.Marchioness Ellie was surprised to see the red mark, for she knew that the Grand Duke was rumored to be an impotent man. How could he do what Hertia could not do to his wife?Marchioness Ellie laughed at the red marks on Regina's right neck; there were so many of them that people who saw them would know that her husband was a violent man.Regina, on the other hand, couldn't help but feel ashamed, but since this was Hertia's suggestion, she couldn't argue."How could a man who is known to be impotent do that, you must have done it with another man. Perhaps the Crown Prince

    "Ellie, cut the crap!" Cudo wanted to slap Ellie, but she challenged him instead."Why do you want to slap me? Just slap me so I can tell everyone that your favorite sister killed the previous Grand Duke Mertia's spouse. Unfortunately, the child is still alive; what if he finds out?" Ellie smiled with a grin; there was no fear in her.Cudo gritted his teeth as he held back the anger inside; it was undeniable that his wife was one of the people who kept secret the tragedy that befell the husband-wife pair of Grand Duke Mertia."I'm sick of enduring everything you two do, not to mention what you do for instant money-" Ellie's words were cut off because Cudo smothered his wife's mouth.Cudo immediately pulled his wife into the carriage; he could no longer bear to let Ellie's mouth continue to blab secrets."It's like I'm locking you up so that you can reflect on the mistakes you're making right now. I already have children anyway, so, I don't really need a nagging woman like you. Moreove

    It doesn't seem like the day has gone by so quickly; the Crown Prince has lost the title he was so proud of. Meanwhile, Cudo was sentenced to death by hanging for selling underage humans, all based on the testimony of his wife, Ellie.The title of Marquis of the Cudo Maharani family was stripped from him, and the kingdom confiscated all his wealth. Naturally, all the nobles suggested that Maharani's property be distributed to all the families of the victims, and that traces of the victims who had been sold be searched for."The next step remains," Hertia said outside the palace."What is the Grand Duke doing here again?" whispered one of the maid working in the Crown Prince's palace.Iaros refused to move to another palace, for he was no longer the Crown Prince but Queen Anatasya's son, Harda Merdika, the newly appointed Crown Prince who had replaced his brother."Why did the Grand Duke come here?" Iaros gave Hertia an irritated look, deeply disturbed by the man's presence."The Queen

    "Mom?" Regina stared intently at the beautiful woman who looked familiar to her.The woman stretched out her arms, asking for a hug. "Right, this is Mom. Sorry for making you wait so long."Regina immediately rushed into the arms of Lily, the woman who was her mother. Tears continued to flow because she missed her biological mother for a long time."Are you okay so far? I'm so sad to see you suffering from up there." Lily's eyes glazed over at her daughter, looking very sad."Yes, I'm fine now, Mom. So don't worry about me, and rest in peace." Regina tightened her hug to her mother, a warm embrace that she missed so much."Thank goodness you're okay. Mommy will always try to protect you no matter what, so you don't have to feel alone anymore." Lily stroked Regina's hair lightly, as a mother would treat her young child."Don't tell me Mom made me go back in time?" Regina looked up at her mother, and Lily answered with a nod of her head. "So you turned back time to make me come back to

    "This is delicious." Regina was very happy to eat the meal that Mira made for her."I'm glad you like it. Eat more." Hertia supported he chin with one hand as he continued to watch he wife."Didn't you have breakfast?" Regina paused her meal, and looked up at her husband, who had been watching her."Just looking at you fills me up, so I don't need breakfast anymore," Hertia replied. Regina immediately responded with bulging eyes."You have to have breakfast! If you don't, I'll stop eating it." Regina pushed the bowl of soup away from her, even though she glanced at it a few times while she ate quickly, but she still held back so that Hertia would join her for breakfast.Hertia smiled at he wife, knowing that Regina still wanted the soup, so he kept looking at it. "Mira, did you cook a lot of soup? I want to eat only that soup because if I eat something else, I'm afraid it will make my wife no longer eager to eat the soup.""There's plenty, Duje. I'll get some more." Mira walked into t

    "No, Duke! Let me stay there. Gera doesn't have to come because I'm the guilty one here." Sira held onto the master's legs, hoping he would forgive he.Gera wanted to say something, but she felt tight in the chest from hitting the wall, and it was hard for he to speak."If that's what you want, I won't stop you. Hurry, and pack your things because I don't want to see you before sunrise tomorrow! But if you realize the mistake you made, I will accept you back here, though I won't restore your position." Hertia approached he wife again, ignoring the two man.Sira immediately carried Gera to be treated, and Mira, who saw this, felt sorry for her and chose to help."I hope you learn from this," Mira said as they left.Hertia stroked his wife's stomach, occasionally kissing Regina's forehead gently. With every kiss, he felt regret for not being stricter with her."I'm sorry, Regina. If I had disciplined her properly, maybe you wouldn't have experienced something like this. Oh, I'm sorry! M

    "I only said what needed to be said, Auntie. Because no matter what, Duchess would have found out," Sira argued, not wanting to be blamed."Ugh!" Regina cried out while holding her stomach, causing everyone to look at her."I'll get a doctor, Duchess!" Terri immediately ran out to call the doctor.Regina continued to whimper while holding her stomach, where she felt cramps.Mira, and Sira, who were there, approached the woman, trying to ease her pain."I came with the doctor you requested." Terri came by, holding the doctor's hand, and approached the madam.The doctor examined Regina's condition, asking questions that surprised everyone."Please forgive my lack of thoroughness in examining you, Duchess. I only examined the wound on the outside." The doctor bowed his head in guilt."No problem. What happened to me?" Regina looked at the doctor in surprise. She was now very confused as to what illness she was suffering from."You are pregnant, and I think the baby is only two weeks old.

    "Tell me, did you plan all this?" Mira snapped at her niece, causing Sira to nod her head slowly. "I don't know what made you do it, but I'm not going to do anything. I just don't know what the Grand Duke will do to you later. I won't protect you, even though I promised Zena, your mother, that I would."Mira left Sira without saying anything else, not caring that the young woman had said she was sorry for what she had done. In Mira's opinion, now that her niece had done something wrong, it could not be forgiven.Of course, the punishment would wait for the Grand Duke, because no matter what, the victim was Regina. Besides, the culprit was Sira, the butler of the residence itself. Mira could not have made the decision alone without the master."You will send a message to the Grand Duke about Duchess condition, but there's no need to go into too much detail about what happened. I will explain it to the lord personally!" Mira ordered the man who usually delivered messages or letters.In

    Sira sat limply on the ground, almost buried in thick snow, but Regina was down there instead. Sira, realizing this, immediately got up from her seat to approach the buried mistress."Duchess, can you still hear me?" Sira dug through the snow with both hands, hoping to get Regina out quickly.But unfortunately, it was impossible to get her out alone, especially without using tools. Even if she could, it would take a long time, and Regina would freeze to death.Sira realized she would have to ask for help from people nearby, hoping someone would help her get the mistress out. Running around looking for people, she came across Mira, her aunt."Auntie, help me!" Sira said in a trembling tone."What's wrong? Tell me what happened?" Mira looked at her niece intently, searching for answers."Duchess was buried by a pile of snow that fell from a tree while she was watching the snow fall." Sira pointed to where the mistress was trembling.Mira was shocked but quickly called for someone to hel

    Mira shook her head slightly."No problem, Duchess. You're the Duke wife, after all, so there's no way Duke will be angry that you're here," Mira said, reassuring Regina."Then let's eat this dessert together," Regina invited all the maid present with a sweet smile.Not many servers were present; some were busy, and did not like sweet food. Regina couldn't force them; the most important thing was that the maid came to eat with her.Besides, Sira was there; wasn't it the young butler who disliked her too much? So Regina tried to take the woman's heart slowly, like a sweet dish.Sira seemed reluctant to take the dish, but her eyes kept falling on the chocolate dessert next to Regina. It seemed she wanted the dessert but was embarrassed to say so."Sira, this is for you." Regina handed Sira the dessert, knowing she wanted it.Sira looked embarrassed but finally took the dessert with her usual unfriendly face. Her eyes lit up, and she swallowed a few times, trying to consume it in one bi

    An older maid came over to Regina, the woman looking at the mistress with a sombre expression. "Duchess, please forgive Sira for her rude behaviour." The woman prostrated herself at Regina's feet."Why do you prostrate yourself at my feet? Please stand up, it's so dirty in here!" Regina helped the middle-aged woman to her feet."My name is Mira; I apologize for my rudeness. But I only ask you not to punish Sira, even though she's like this; she's a good woman, just too childish," Mira said with a glance at Sira, who was still not bothered by the commotion she had caused."Why are you so sure I will punish her? She was just sleeping," Regina asked, staring at Mira intently, her eyes full of curiosity as to why the servant in front of her was so sure she would do that."Forgive me for making such a bold accusation! It's just that I'm very worried about this child, nothing more," Mira replied, looking very worried."No problem, Mira. I understand your concern, but I won't punish her bec

    Sira, and Gera laughed in the dining room, not caring that many ears would hear their conversation now. The most important thing was to say they did not like the newly arrived mistress."Hertia, it seems that some of them don't like me," Regina said when they were in the room."Tell me, who dared to do that to you?" Hertia gritted he teeth, a sign that she was holding back anger."Would you do something to him if I told you who it was?" Regina asked her husband a question instead of answering."Of course, I will punish them all; who would dare to do such a thing to a grand duchess?!" Hertia's voice rose, unable to contain the anger in he chest."Sira, the butler who works here!" replied Regina flatly.Hertia's face was shocked, but then sighed heavily. "I'm sorry! I'll reprimand her tomorrow so she won't do anything to you. Her mother never taught her to be impolite, but why is she acting like that?""Don't! Just let her do what she wants as long as it doesn't hurt me; as long as she
