Love You, Love You Not (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 088

The House of Count Parbader was among the most distinguished noble families, having produced no fewer than three empresses.

The previous generation’s “Lady Parbader” had married into the Empire’s sole ducal house and lived honorably all her life. Even without the head of the household taking a new mistress, she wielded immense influence centered around the Conwell domain.

Epona de Parbader, who became the “Lady Parbader” after skipping a generation, was given a similar mission. Yet in the Farsade Empire, the best position a noble young lady could hope for had already been claimed by Lady Agnoman, and Grand Duke Blachnatt had already become engaged to Princess Erwin.

When Epona unexpectedly received a fox tail from Grand Duke Porgal of the Teshia Empire during the hunting event at Conwell, she made up her mind. Since things had come to this, she would become the Grand Duchess of the Teshia Empire.

Epona quickly found a handkerchief and embroidered the initials of Grand Duke Porgal onto it.

Just then, using the fox tail as an excuse to return the favor, she waited in the guest wing for the duke, who had briefly stepped out.

Even the guest wing of the Conwell Grand Ducal residence was astonishingly vast, with separate sitting and sleeping rooms in each guest suite. While waiting for the man, who took longer to return than expected, Epona glanced sideways at items spread out on the sitting room desk…

“Good heavens, what on earth is this?!”

Epona boldly abandoned her earlier intention of merely looking and picked up the open letter, staring at it as if her eyes might pop out.

At first, she nearly mistook it for a love letter from Grand Duke Porgal addressed to herself. But the contents of the letter were utterly shocking.

It stated that Grand Duke Blachnatt had a lover named Scathach—and that this lover was carrying the duke’s child!

“This is simply impossible!”

Epona was at the ambiguous age of nearly nineteen—too old to be called a child, yet not quite an adult. Like innocent noble girls of her kind, she was not entirely naive about matters below a man’s belt.

Outraged as if she herself had been betrayed, Epona seethed at Grand Duke Blachnatt’s infidelity—abandoning his pregnant lover to become engaged to another woman.

Epona quickly gathered the letter and slipped out of the guest wing.
