My Husband's Cinderella (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 84
It rained without stopping from morning until afternoon that day. Despite the fresh greenery that filled the air, the North was unseasonably cold.
Helena rubbed her belly, using the soft pitter-patter of rain as prenatal stimulation. Her body remained as thin and bony as ever, yet for some reason, she felt as if her stomach had swelled outward.
“To the princess who wanted to attend the ball…”
It was just as she was reading a fairy tale to the child in her womb.
Knock, knock—the sharp rap shattered the quiet.
“Come in.”
Perhaps put off by Helena’s unwelcoming tone, the maid approached hesitantly, glancing around nervously.
“Didn’t I tell you not to come in at this hour? I clearly instructed you this is the time I read to our child!”
“I’m sorry, madam. There’s an urgent matter I must deliver.”
Helena snapped her book shut loudly and silently glared at the maid—a clear signal to state her business and leave quickly.
“Someone wishes to see you, madam.”
“Who?”
“I don’t know who exactly. An old man—he’s been waiting at the front gate for several hours…”
“You’d bring someone of unknown identity before me? What if he’s dangerous?”
Helena pressed the maid sharply, who clearly lacked basic judgment.
Turns Out He’s Been Secretly in Love with Me

Wow, she really has no clue what personal accountability is. Nor does she have any self-awareness.
Lol, what a ridiculously mysterious way of stating when the appointment time is. Although, I did get the impression the guy is a sorcerer or magician of some sort. Did he implant those thoughts into Helena’s mind during the trial?
It seems to me that Kalis was not as attached to Helena as I had previously thought. He behaved as if utterly devoted to her initially. Did he even really mourn her death? He tossed her and their unborn child aside quite cruelly. I was surprised he behaved that way towards their child and Helena considering all he sacrificed to keep Helena in his life and at the estate. Perhaps he did not consider what he lost as a sacrifice but as things that were stolen from him by Chloe and now, the emperor. Helena too did not comprehend personal accountability nor being responsible for one’s own actions. Those two shared quite a few undesirable traits. The most surprising one being how entitled they behaved considering their stations.
