I Had the Enemy's Baby (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 50
“Is there really a secret to capturing a man’s heart?”
The moment Madame Marcel heard Clodel’s words, countless scenarios rapidly flashed through her mind.
Her first thought was, ‘Could the Duchess, who has barely settled into Rowen since her marriage, already have another man?’
If not, why would she possibly want to know the secret to capturing a man’s heart?
This assumption rested entirely on the premise that Clodel’s husband—and Madame Marcel’s employer—Duke Kai An Temnes was utterly smitten with her.
After all, there’d be no reason to try capturing the heart of a man already firmly in her grasp.
Yet even that notion struck Madame Marcel as utterly absurd.
Duke Kai An Temnes’s reputation was well known even in the capital, far from the Rowen territory.
Although the Duke himself had gone off to the Five-Year War and, since returning from the battlefield, had scarcely set foot in the capital or its social circles due to governing his domain, noble young ladies still flocked to admire him.
Currently, the Oberon Kingdom was suffering from a severe shortage of marriageable male nobles.
There was barely any room left to consider a suitor’s looks, personality, or preferences—so much so that noble daughters were even willing to become second wives to foreign nobles as long as their wealth, status, and lineage were solid.
Thus, the existence of such an exceptionally attractive young Duke became a beacon of hope for marriageable young ladies in the capital.
It brought them great comfort to know that someone so eligible remained within the Oberon Kingdom rather than marrying abroad, allowing them to uphold their parents’ prestige while finding a personally satisfying match.
Ever since His Majesty the King had abruptly removed Kai An from the marriage market by royal decree, loyalty toward King Valkyter among capital nobles with marriageable daughters had reportedly dropped by about thirty percent.
And yet, with such a husband, the Duchess was thinking of capturing another’s heart!
