The Grand Duchess Aldrich
Chapter 34. Isn't Love Like That?

"Your Majesty, the Crown Princess is coming to see you. Are you-" unfinished personal servant Margaret spoke, Margaret's already cut it. "Please let him in."

"Okay, your honor ..."

Margaret sat in the gazebo of the second prince's residence which was located behind the residence. The woman was wearing a white cardigan, her hair was blond. His current appearance was plain, there was no decoration whatsoever.

The woman's face looked pale and tyrannical, her eyes puffy from crying too much. His eyes stared blankly at the fish pond that was in front of him. Anabella's arrival to the second prince's residence surprised her, but Margaret did not have the energy to decorate or do anything else to welcome Anabella's arrival and pretended to be fine.

"Daughter Margaret ...." Anabella's voice rang out, making Margaret turn her head towards the woman.

Anabella stood up wearing a green dress, the woman's hand holding an expensive fan in matching color. Her face seemed surprised to see Margaret's condition even though the woman had known about Margaret's condition and story during her life with the second prince.

Margaret who had just come out of the brackets without eating and drinking the second prince tried to smile, then slowly stood up and bowed towards Anabella.

Anabella quickly restrained Margaret's movements and brought the woman back to sit in her gazebo. Anabella sat down beside Margaret, then clasped Margaret's hands together and asked, "What's the matter? Why do you look so fucked up Princess Margaret?"

Margaret forced her smile back, then shook her head slowly. "I'm fine."

Anabella fell silent, her breathing and gaze turning cold. Soon, the woman said, "It's all because of Aimee Aldrich."

Hearing what Anabella said, Margaret looked at Anabella with a slightly surprised feeling. Soon, Margaret's eyes turned sad.

"The woman is truly a thorn in the flesh of one's household. Really sickening! Don't you think so, Princess Margaret?" anabella asked, trying to lure Margaret. He intended to stir up Margaret's feelings of hatred and anger.

Margaret looked back at Anabella, now her gaze looked puzzled. Anabella held her seat straight forward, then said, "The woman also snatched away my future husband, the crown prince."

Margaret was stunned, she was shocked. Aimee turns out to not only confiscate her husband's love, but a million crown princes? Thinking of this Margaret's head felt heavy. She had not eaten because she had just come out of her room after receiving the punishment, Margaret had only drunk the warm tea the servants had provided for her. Her body was also still very limp, not to mention that she was currently pregnant. It must be that his current condition of the fetus is very weak. But Margaret tried to remain stable and suppress all her discomfort.

"You never thought of doing anything to the Grand Duchess?" anabella asked, she started to enter the main topic slowly.

Margaret shook her head slowly. "I never thought so."

Margaret was silent for quite a while hearing what Anabella had said. However, before long Margaret smiled again and replied, "Crown Princess, how long has it been since we talked?"

Hearing the question from Margaret, Anabella's face turned ugly. His eyes grew cold looking at Margaret. The answer to Margaret's question just now was Margaret's subtle rejecting answer.

In Ventumia, the nobles had their own way of subtly rejecting negotiations or offers by asking how long they had spent talking. That means, someone who is offered rejects the offer of the applicant and feels not interested in the offer. Or, the person who answers with such a question already feels uncomfortable and wants to quickly get off the topic.

Anabella smiled a faint smile, then asked again. "You sure?" Margaret who heard Anabella's question only smiled and nodded thinly using her pale face.

"You want to take a miserable fate for granted?" ask Anabella.

Margaret let out a thin sigh, her eyes staring back at the fish pond blankly. "I want the second prince to love me with his own will without any coercion and convoluted plans that I create. If I had to get rid of the main problem as you said before, I was afraid that the second prince would become chaotic and sad. Seeing my loved ones sad, I will not be heartbroken and grieve. I could not be happy for the sadness that the man was feeling. I also do not understand why I love him so much with all the flaws, advantages, or crazy things that exist in the man. I don't have the heart to make him sad."

"Your thinking is so naive, you are willing to be hurt for your loved ones, which even that person cannot contribute anything to you" Anabella said.

Margaret kept her smile on, now her right hand moved rubbing her stomach. "Isn't love like that, Crown Princess?"

Anabella stood up from her seat, then said, "If it is your decision, then I will not be able to force it. But if you end up fed up and wanting to be in line with me, I will never reject you."

Margaret nodded thinly. "Thank you, Crown Princess. I'll close my eyes and mouth about the matter and the conversation just now."

After that, Anabella decided to leave. Margaret was still sitting in her gazebo, she today wanted to spend her time contemplating and enjoying the fresh air. His head kept thinking about the figure of the second prince Elston, the woman had a very sincere feeling.

"Your Majesty, when will you love me?" margaret murmured as she continued to stroke her stomach gently. Slowly, her tears regrouped and dripped. Margaret sobbed again, making her personal servant immediately approach and hug Margaret.

"Your Majesty, you don't want to go inside? The weather is currently very cold, it is likely that there will be heavy snowfall. You also have to warm your body and eat to fill your stomach and make your fetus back healthy, right?" ask Margaret's personal servant, she's trying to get Margaret to take her mind off Elston.

"Where is the prince today?" margaret asked, he ignored the words of his personal servant just now. Even in this terrible condition, he was still thinking about Elston.

"The noble is still in the palace, probably going home late at night. You do not have to wait for him anymore, because your condition is still quite severe. You have to rest and eat a lot to recover" replied the waiter.
