Sister, I'm the Queen This Life (330 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 109
Sancha clung tightly to Ariadne’s side as she followed her out of the Lambouyé Orphanage. Unable to contain herself, she asked urgently, eyes wide open.
“Miss, are you really planning to make Maleta Lord Ippolito’s official mistress?!”
Ariadne gave a light laugh.
“I’m no king to force through a marriage both the man and his parents despise. How could I possibly arrange such a union?”
“But you promised……”
“My promise wasn’t to marry her off.”
Ariadne had promised Maleta, “I’ll secure a place for you in the household.”
Nowhere in that promise did she say Maleta would become the legitimate wife. That “place” could just as well be that of a concubine—or that of a forgotten lover banished to the countryside to raise an illegitimate child.
Upon hearing Ariadne’s explanation, Sancha’s mouth fell open.
“Even if things go perfectly and Maleta ends up as his concubine, she’ll be furious!”
“What can she do if she’s furious? Will she report me to the royal court for breaking our contract?”
At this, Sancha raised a question. If they were already resorting to underhanded tactics, why not maximize efficiency and go all the way?
“If there’s no way for Maleta to force us to keep our promise, then why even bother telling His Eminence Cardinal de Mare that we’ll arrange a marriage? We could just say, ‘Thank you for your testimony. Now, off you go!’ Wouldn’t that work too?”
“The testimony comes first, the place afterward—so technically, yes, that would work.”
Ariadne smiled faintly. Her smile carried a trace of bitterness.
