I Have A Terminally Ill Duke As My Husband (1 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 128
“Susan Theor, Countess? Auntie, how can a mere countess—not even a marchioness—possibly attend?”
Seeing Mercian’s puzzled expression, Olivia answered.
“Though she holds the title of countess, her birth family is none other than the Obrije family—the very lineage of the Imperial Palace physicians. Long ago, when the Empress nearly died giving birth to Prince Damonz, it was Simon—head of House Obrije and Susan’s father—who refused to give up and saved her life.”
House Obrije…
Ah, right—the family that produced the youngest Imperial Physician in the empire’s history.
Mercian recalled hearing about them during her lessons on the imperial family and nobility.
“Because of this service, House Obrije was entrusted with the leadership role among all Imperial Physicians. The physician who treated you when you were stabbed by a knife last time was also Susan’s cousin. Thanks to her father’s merit, Susan gained the Empress’s trust and special favor, allowing her to attend the tea gathering every year.”
“I see. But now that Her Majesty the Empress is no longer with us, she might not attend this year.”
“Well, if she doesn’t receive an invitation, she won’t attend. Ever since the Empress passed, Susan has withdrawn entirely from society—but don’t be fooled. She’s a cunning woman, skilled at charming people with her words. She appears kind and gentle, but if she senses any threat to her interests, she’ll ruthlessly ruin someone’s social standing without hesitation. So, if you happen to see her at the tea party, stay far away from her.”
At Olivia’s words, Mercian remembered the incident at the dishware shop.
Indeed, Susan seemed exactly like that kind of person.
“Yes, Auntie. I’ll do just that.”
Satisfied with Mercian’s reply, Olivia stood up from her seat with a pleased expression.
“Now then, I must be off again. Don’t forget—you hold the highest rank at the tea gathering after Empress Fione and Crown Prince Harmon. So even if older noble ladies say something to you, never let them intimidate you. Understand?”
“Yes, Auntie. I’ll keep everything you’ve told me in mind and act accordingly so as not to bring shame upon our family.”
