However, she was someone who had contributed greatly and had offered herself. How could the King not agree?

Originally, when she first entered the palace, she could only he conferred a First Attendant. However, because

she had contributed and was Mr. Charlie's granddaughter, the King made an exception and conferred her as an

Imperial Concubine.

Ashley was obviously dissatisfied with the status of the Imperial Concubine, but she did not say anything. A trace

of disappointment flashed across her eyes, and she kowtowed to thank the King.

For speople, this was a battle of gains.

When the King left the palace, Ashley also left with him. The King allowed her to temporarily stay in Marquis

Eldermere’s estate and wait for a good day to marry him.

Although Isolde was going to remarry, she had already married in the bridal sedan before. Therefore, she only

needed to go back to the Duke's estate or Sharp's estate three days before the wedding.

On the way back, Isolde had something on her mind that she did not know how to tell Oliver.

It was really difficult to talk about this matter.

Hence, she stammered along the way but did not say anything.

Even Ashley, who was sitting in the carriage with her, could tell that Isolde had something on her mind. Ashley

said indifferently, “I'll just pretend not to hear it. If you have something to say, say it.”

Oliver looked at Isolde and asked, “Yes?”

Isolde shook her head. “It’s not a big deal. At most, it’s a small problem.”

“What small problem?” Oliver's expression becserious. It was rare to see her so hesitant.

Isolde looked at him. “Since it's a small problem, you can’t be angry if | tell you.”

“Why would | be angry with you?” Oliver laughed. His handseyebrows were curved, making him look

especially warm and charming.

However, the armor on his body seemed a little tougher.

Isolde did not know what he was thinking about Cristina. This woman had once humiliated him.

However, she had to tell him about this before he entered the house, in case he was perplexed that he suddenly

had another concubine.

She took a deep breath and said, “Well, after you go to Zloimond, I've married you. You know about this, but

there's one more thing you don’t know. Letmake this clear first. It was really just an accident.”

“What accident?” Oliver was now especially sensitive to the word accident.

“The accident was that on the night of our wedding, Cristina cand accidentally becyour concubine.”

Isolde finished speaking in one breath and looked at him.

“Not angry?” Isolde asked.

Oliver smiled. “Why would | be angry? | only went out for a while and | already have a wife and concubine.”

When Isolde heard this, she felt a little upset.

What does he mean? Does not being angry mean being happy? Could it be that he has always wanted to marry

Cristina? Or could it be that he has once broken off the engagement with Cristina and now that Cristina is his

concubine, he feels that it is a victory for revenge?

“Don’t you feel embarrassed? She once broke off the engagement and humiliated you,” Isolde said.

Oliver looked at her and said seriously, “Don’t be angry. These things are not worth my anger. As you said, this is

not a problem. It's just a small problem. It’s fine as long as it’s resolved.”

“How do you plan to resolve this?” Isolde asked.

Oliver looked at her and asked curiously, “You're my wife. You're in charge of the concubines. It's your business

no matter how you resolve it. Why are you asking about me?”

Yes, the rules of the Eryndral Empire were very strict. Concubines had always been arranged by the wife. Even if

the wife did not arrange them, they had to be approved by the wife before they could marry into the family.

Concubines were like servants in the family. Although they were not sold as easily as slaves, it was normal to be

sent away if they were caught red-handed.

In her previous life, Isolde had never dealt with the problem of concubines because although Eleanor was a

concubine, her status in the family was far higher than her, the wife,

Kicking out her husband’s concubine was a new challenge.

Of course, at least before she officially married into the family, it was not easy to do so.

Although Isolde was arrogant, she was about to marry Oliver. She wished to preserve his dignity, ensuring that

outsiders would not look down upon him.

Ashley listened to their conversation and smiled sarcastically. She turned her head around and looked out of the

curtains.

Oliver and Isolde were sitting next to each other. His hand was beside hers. He only needed to move slightly to

hold her hand.

However, his fingers moved a few times but could not reach out.

Previously, he couldn't help but hold hands with her. But now that everything had settled down, he felt that they

weren't that close.

If they weren't close to each other, it wouldn't be easy to make a move!

But he wanted to make a move.

Will she find it strange that | hold her hand for no reason? If she feels that I'm frivolous, it will not be good.

However, she took the initiative to hold my hand before. Does that mean that she likes it? Oliver was very

conflicted.

This kind of thing that couldn’t be solved with a fight always troubled him.

The carriage finally arrived at the gate of Marquis Eldermere’s estate.

When they got off the carriage, Oliver got off first. He had been waiting for this opportunity to reach out to

Isolde

However, Isolde actually jumped down with him. When his hand reached out, it happened to be in front of Ashley.

When he

Isolde jump down, he subconsciously wanted to retract his hand, but Ashley had already placed her hand in his

palm. He could only hold her and let her get off the stool.

When their hands touched, he clearly felt Ashley suddenly hold his hand tightly. He did not bat an eyelid and

immediately retracted his hand after she got off.

“Thank you, Mr. Valois!” Ashley said gently.

“Ashley, you're welcome, Oliver said calmly.

At the door, Pablo welcomed them with his family and servants.

When Pablo saw Oliver, he was very excited. Generals usually endured it, but Oliver could still see the tears. in

his eyes.

“Father!” He stepped forward and knelt down firmly. “It’s my fault for making you worry!”

“Get up, get up!” Pablo pulled him up and patted his arm. His eyes were shining. “As long as you you're back. I'm

proud of you.”

Margaret, William, Eleanor, and Cristina were all behind them. Of course, they did not want to come, but

Margaret had given strict orders. Regardless of whether they were sick, injured, or dead, they would be brought

out,

When William heard Pablo praise Oliver, he was so angry that his eyes almost popped out of their sockets.

However, what made him most furious was Isolde, who was standing beside him.

Her clothes were torn, and her hair was messy. She did not have the aura of a young lady from a wealthy family

at all. However, her clothes were tightly tied at the waist, with silk ribbons tied around her cuffs. She was

wearing sheepskin boots, and she looked a little like a man. That appearance made his heart flutter with

affection.

He trembled for no reason and could not take his eyes off her.

In the blink of an eye, Oliver had already arrived in front of Margaret. He cupped his hands and greeted, “God

Mother!”

He called Pablo Father and called her God Mother. It was a clear distinction!
