[ENG] The Useless Duchess's Second Chance 29. The Truth
“Firstly, I want to thank you for being Prince Raoul's friend for all these years. I'm glad to see him growing more confident since he got to know you, Ariana,” King Alexius said to begin with. The whole time, Ariana didn't understand why King Alexius was suddenly paying attention to Prince Raoul like this. That man had also helped her many times when she had a confrontation with Prince Emilio. It was hard for Ariana to imagine, that this simple-looking king in front of her was the same person as a father who had the heart to abandon his child for many years.“Secondly, I would like to apologize for using you to help my son secretly all this time. I had no other choice, Ariana. The Alison family has always been on the side of the truth. So, I thought … Maybe you can help my innocent son.”Ariana's hand that was originally holding the teacup stopped moving when she heard King Alexius' words. Ariana's round eyes turned to stare at the man without even blinking. The girl never expected a
[ENG] The Useless Duchess's Second Chance 30. Their Duty
As soon as Ariana left the room, the girl saw Prince Raoul, who was still sitting with his head down on one of the chairs in that place. Before King Alexius spoke to him, the king seemed to have spoken to Prince Raoul first. For Ariana, who was only an observer in this tragedy, the life story of King Alexius and Prince Raoul was too sad to be true. Ariana couldn't imagine how broken Prince Raoul's heart was after hearing the truth of his life. “Lady Aria ….”Albert looked worried when Ariana came out with a slightly dazed expression. Even though everyone in Alison's household had acknowledged her greatness, Ariana was still a young girl who shouldn't have gotten too involved in political matters at such a young age. Moreover, Ariana is still a minor. Albert looked at Ariana sadly, wishing he could do something for his young lady.“Has His Majesty left?” Ariana asked quietly. Albert immediately nodded. “His Majesty the King returned immediately after speaking with you. I had offered t
[ENG] The Useless Duchess's Second Chance 31. A Good King
After they finished talking, both Ariana and Raoul immediately returned to the camp to watch the hunting process. In the tent that was starting to get muddy from the rain, Ariana saw that King Alexius had arrived earlier and was overseeing the appraisal process being carried out by the people. When King Alexius saw Ariana and Raoul's arrival, the king secretly smiled a little at the two. However, his look soon turned cold again, as Queen Melisa glanced at her husband with a suspicious look.Just like King Alexius, Ariana pretended not to look at the two of them as she dismounted from her horse, and then joined in watching the other participants' prey. As per her calculations, she was in the top five of all the nobles. Ariana could see the other noble children were sending her accusing looks. Of course, since Albert was with her as her knight, many people thought Ariana was just asking her knights to find her suitable prey during the competition.But something more surprising happens a
[ENG] The Useless Duchess's Second Chance 32. Preparations
When she got home, Ariana could tell that her grandfather had not returned when she didn't see the family carriage. When the maids saw that Ariana and Albert had returned with soaking wet clothes, they immediately prepared hot water for the two. Ariana immediately took a bath as the maids finished preparing her bath. With a new problem now emerging, Ariana felt she needed to give her brain a break before she thought hard again.Ariana didn't know how long she had been soaking. Only when the water she was using had cooled down, did the girl finally come out and put on her home clothes. When Ariana came out, James was already at her door. Ariana had messaged James beforehand, to let him know when her grandfather had come home from his business.“His Grace is waiting for you in his study, Lady Aria.”“Alright. Thank you for telling me, James.”Ariana immediately went to meet her grandfather after that. Incidentally, when Ariana was about to enter, Albert had just come out from her grandfa
[ENG] The Useless Duchess's Second Chance 33. The Festival (Part 1)
Since early morning, Raoul had been up and prepared while waiting for Ariana to arrive. Even though a lot had happened yesterday, it was undeniable that Raoul was still looking forward to his first trip with Ariana. Imagining that there would be a time when he would be able to get out of the palace walls made Raoul very excited. Raoul knew in three days he would be out to go to the northern border. But the trip with Ariana will definitely be different because this trip will be his first date with Ariana.Yes, a date. Because from the books Raoul read, when a girl and a boy walked together to enjoy something, that trip could be called a date.While Raoul was waiting for Ariana's arrival on the terrace of his castle, his keen ear heard a rustling sound from the road that Ariana and Valencia used to walk. Raoul immediately stood up to greet Ariana's arrival. But his face turned wary, when he saw two young men in simple clothes.“Your Highness, it's us, Ariana and Valencia.”When Ariana sa

After finishing buying blankets for the beggars, Ariana immediately distributed the blankets while being assisted by Valencia and Prince Raoul. At first, Ariana was afraid that they would refuse her gift. But when the people thanked her with a smile, Ariana's heart finally calmed down as she smiled back at them. Not to forget, Ariana also gave them a fair few pieces of clothing and food to the beggars. The atmosphere in the narrow alley was suddenly lively, the happiness comparable to the festive atmosphere on the street where the hunting festival was being held.“Brother, I got this for you!”Ariana was surprised when a little girl touched her clothes and showed a small flower in her hand. Ariana remembers that the little girl was one of the children who got her gifts. The girl thought the young girl just wanted to thank her, so she immediately accepted the gift of flowers and smiled.“Thank you very much.”For the first time, Ariana felt she could finally be a good person. In the pa

As they were walking around, Raoul subconsciously stopped when he saw a weapon shop selling swords and various other weapons that looked pretty. His gaze was focused on a slender sword with an extremely sharp-looking blade. Although the sword Ariana had given him was no less beautiful and sharp, it was already starting to be too small for Raoul, who was in his growth period. Raoul had been taught how to judge the quality of a sword by Valencia. And he immediately knew that the beautiful-looking sword has excellent quality.Because Ariana was always watching Prince Raoul from time to time, the girl also glanced at the sword that the prince admired secretly. For some reason, she felt that the sword, with the sword her grandfather gave her, had similarities with that sword in various places. Ariana walked up to Raoul, then invited him to enter the shop and see the sword that the man wanted up close.“There's no need for that, Aria. My sword is still good enough to use.”When Raoul found
[ENG] The Useless Duchess's Second Chance 36. The Ball (Part 1)
When the night of the ball came, Ariana was ready a few hours before the ball started. Even though Alison's area is right next to the capital, her trip may be delayed due to the festival. Since the ball was not a significant event, this time, Ariana did not come with her grandfather. Duke Andrew also felt that he was too old to enjoy such events. Plus, the man felt it was time for Ariana to start handling the affairs of the Dukedom on her own.In her family's carriage, Ariana went along with Valencia. Valencia's identity, as the daughter of the chief knight, allowed her to attend the party as a guest. Both of them wore beautiful clothes. Of course, because Valencia was Ariana's closest friend, she was no less charming in her outfit.Since the ball at the end of the hunting festival was an event that only happened once every three years, it was always held in the main palace of the king and queen. From a distance, Ariana could already see the splendor of the big party. In the past, she
