「And so Liana, it’s about what you will do after this but…」
Liana, who had relaxed after hearing about her brother and father, tensed once again .
The Queen smiled bitterly as she watched Liana and said .
「Don’t worry . I won’t ask you to become a Side Queen anymore . However, for the child’s sake in your stomach, I don’t think you should stay unmarried . And so, if you are okay with it, what do you think about formally marrying the Earl Theodore of the bordering territory?」
Liana was astonished by the Queen’s proposal .
「Um, by formally you mean…」
Liana timidly asked the Queen .
「I’m sorry . It will be confusing if I said it suddenly, right . As I mentioned earlier, Earl Theodore and I are old friends . He had lost his wife several years ago and is now living with his five-year-old daughter . I can guarantee the character of Earl Theodore . He is someone who still loves his deceased wife so he won’t lay a hand on you . He didn’t want to remarry but he only has a daughter and so he plans on adopting a child in the future . After consulting with the Earl, he say as long as you are okay with it, you can take refuge over there as a bride . He also said that if your child is a son, he will succeed the family as Theodore’s own child . Of course, he will treat the child as his own even if it is a girl . The Theodore Territory has the school that your father will work in and is close to the Kingdom that your brother will go to . It is also far from the Capital and so you will be completely separated from the King . 」 (ED: Wow, the Queen talks a lot)
Liana was disordered from this sudden talk .
The Queen saw Liana’s confusion and stroke her back saying,
「You must be troubled after I said so much . You can think carefully . Because it is a formal marriage with the Earl, you can entrust your child to him after divorcing even if you can’t love it after giving birth to it . Then, you can live with your brother in the neighboring kingdom . If you find someone you love, you can then marry him . You have many possibilities for your future . I too will cooperate with you as long as it is possible . 」
After telling Liana this, the Queen left the room .
Liana, who was left alone in the room, laid on the bed and thought about what the Queen had said .
