CHAPTER 3 - THE ORIGINAL STORY 'TRUE LOVE'
Last Updated:
2021-07-15 16:08:08Sarah's Pov - (Point of View)
The events of the Novel take place in the Kennedy Empire.
The Novel says that the Kennedy Empire is one of the most powerful Empires since they had a lot of magic support as well as their powerful knight forces...
The male lead Fredrick Nicholson Lloyd Kennedy is engaged to the villainess Rubia Mary Albert Charleston (A political marriage or an arranged marriage) at the age of 19.
The novel does not mention much about the crown prince's childhood except for the fact that his mother was a noble who used her pregnancy as a reason to get closer to the position of Empress.
Apparently, the woman died when the crown prince was 4.
The emperor loved his child, he just didn't show it much (the guy was probably a tsundere) and he wished for the prince to find his true love which is probably why he accepted the relationship between Fredrick and Catherine (the female lead).
Fredrick doesn't care much about the villainess Rubia but, Rubia is shown to love him since he was one of the few people that understood her truly...
Fredrick and Catherine meet coincidentally when he saves her from a group of thugs and he instantly fell in love with her (so cliched). From then on Fredrick constantly went to check up on Catherine and eventually bought her the title of Countess.
Rubia who heard of these events from the maid’s gossip was irritated and filled with jealousy.
So well, I guess it's obvious...
Rubia attempts to poisoned Catherine.
Fredrick finds about it and charges Rubia of attempted murder.
Louis (Rubia's brother) begged for his sister to not have a heavy punishment.
Frederick accepted his request for childhood’s sake...
Rubia is then imprisoned for Two years and when she is released, she once again wished for the death of Catherine.
So, she charges at Catherine with a knife but she's saved by the royal knights.
When Fredrick hears of these events, he gives Rubia a death sentence...
And after that comes Catherine and Frederick's engagement...
The only ones that truly cares about Rubia in the end were her parents and her brother.
Ps... The author of the novel 'True love' also mentions that Louis had unrequited feelings for Catherine. But he couldn't choose her over his sister...
See the story was truly shitty wasn't it...?!!
I don't really want to face all this stuff in the future so I'm going to work hard and live my second Life
The first step to me having my peaceful life is to lay the foundation by building a deeper connection with my family and the maids and servants of the Duchy since it might work to my benefit it the near future
In my previous life I did not have a father I did have a mother but I barely ever saw her or conversed with her since she was working hard to pay off the debts so I never really felt parental love but, in this life, I wish for that to change even if it is just a bit.
Rubia never really cared about her family since she was obsessed over the crown prince but I don't believe she hated her parents or brother she might have just built a wall around her while they were there and the only one who was able to cross this wall was probably the prince (I don't really understand why though.)
TO BE CONTINUED...

I have been a bit curious about the situation lately." "Well, it isn't that confidential but, it is surprising to see you want to know about it, Rubia.." "I just wanted to know more about the situation of the empire." "The Westlands have been the major suppliers of food grains and crops which are used to feed the commoners. But, there seems to be a problem with the harvest grounds. That's the reason why the emperor had asked me and a few

"I suggest that we plant more trees." "Plant trees...?" The nobles gathered all have a look of shock. * "That is right.

And, there are a few more benefits involved in growing trees, Your Majesty."

" "It's quite alright young lady." Baroness Joann's POV- I had heard that the young lady of the Charleston house had changed but, I did not expect that she had changed this much. During the past whenever I had lessons with the young lady not only did she not pays attention but, she also dared to sleep during my classes. But, the eyes of the young lady right now have a will to learn. I believe this is the reason why Henry (the duke) (One of the previous students of Baroness Joann) had put down his pride to ask me to observe her before making t

I am aware that almost everyone in this room despises the Southern Empire's Emperor for his foolishness and greed." said Damien"...?" The nobles stared with confusion at Damien having no idea what the consequences were of the words he uttered"I will be starting an internal revolt against the emperor." said Damien as he smirked"What is the meaning of this, Grand Duke?" asked the emperor"I am sure you all have your doubts about me, but you have to trust me when I say this...

I've heard about them.""They are a family known for their knights and their loyalty to the Empire."Currently -Six ladies from Noble families will come for the interview. I am free to choose at least three or four out of the six but, I doubt there'd be a majority of the ladies who are interested in the job.They may have hidden intentions like spying on me or seducing Fredrick.But they would have to be stupid if they thought of me as a foolish naive Lady.

Previously - Fredrick, I do not think I have ever be able to understand you but, I sincerely wish for you to live a good life. You deserve that. Since, I read not only the original story but also the Altered version of the story where Fredrick is not the male lead but, the villain and Rubia is never brought up. It is kind of Ironic to know that Me and Fredrick do not have the relationship of Villainess and Male Lead but, Villain and Villainess. Currently - Sarah's Pov - I liked the novel 'True Love' for a lot of reasons but, I also found it sad because the author never displayed the emotions felt by other characters excluding the Male lead and the Female lead. The feelings felt by Rubia when she was waiting for her death while the man, she loves gets married to the woman she hated. Those feelings were ignored and cast aside. The author of the Novel 'True Love' had made

"The only ones who have Aura's are the highest of nobility." Currently - An aura. It was a term that was never used in the novel 'True Love'. Fredrick has nothing to gain from lying to me and I trust him since I know my feelings for him. But, how could the author not mention anything about it in the book...? Have the events of the book altered because of me? Now that I think about it... My brother and Lady Margaret have recently started going out with the family's approval. This was not the case in the novel. Louis was someone who had absolutely no interest in anyone other than Catherine.

They have their meal and take some time to talk about the Empire. * "Is it safe to say that the nobles have decided to heed the emperor’s warning to them...?" asked Sarah "I am sure you know that the noble's and aristocrats hate making choices or decisions that bring them a great loss. The nobles who plotted along with the Southern Kingdom were just trashy Counts or Barons who were about to become fallen nobles." "Of course, I am aware of that." "The one thing every noble fear is making a rash decision which may lead to the Family's downfall in the near future. They who have been labelled with th

Wait for me over here. I'll meet with Jonathan (the playwriter)." said Fredrick"Sure but, you don’t want me to come with you?" asked Rubia"How about after the play?
