My Runaway Husband Returned to Find Me Pregnant Chapter 9
My expression softened slightly. "Please sit."A maid brought over a chair, but Agnes didn't move. "I'm unworthy of being your mother-in-law, Your Majesty.""Then, why have you come today?" I asked.Jasper blurted desperately, "Mother, save me!"Agnes bowed and said, "I have come to ask Your Majesty for one thing."My gaze chilled slightly. "Speak."I knew the General's Manor possessed a token of unconditional pardon bestowed by the late king. They had always kept it in their private chapel. If Agnes showed it to beg for Jasper to be released, there would be nothing I could do.Agnes said steadily, "My son has committed heinous crimes. I beg His Majesty and Her Majesty not to show mercy. You need not relent because of the past contributions of the past generals.""Mother?" Jasper stared at her in disbelief, unable to accept that she would abandon him so mercilessly.I, too, was momentarily stunned. But when my eyes fell on her slightly misshapen arm, understanding dawned insta

I let out a soft laugh. "Pauline, you have a young and promising general like Jasper so utterly devoted to you. Isn't that enough for you?"At my words, Pauline looked at me with open contempt. "Isabella, you're the Queen now. Of course you can say something like this so callously. Jasper may look young and promising, but isn't he just living off his father's legacy? "He got to where he is today with the foundation his father laid down. Does he have even a single military achievement to his own name? If I had been born the legitimate daughter, forget being a general's wife—the position of Queen should have been mine!"I gently rubbed my fingers together with a faint smile playing at my lips. Only after venting did Pauline belatedly sense that something was wrong."Isabella, why did you summon me here? Where is Jasper? What did you do to him?" she finally asked.Thinking of the soldiers who had been executed in the dungeon, fear crept onto her face.She hurriedly said, "It wasn't

When Mother's body was to be buried, Father told me that she was of a lowly status and was unworthy of being in the Slade family's official records. He had also said that she was even less worthy of being buried in the Slades' cemetery.I never imagined that after so many years of marriage and even after bearing him children, Mother would end up in such a miserable state. The other members of the Slade family denied me at every turn as well, and there was nothing I could do.In the end, I could only take Mother's body with me back to the General's Manor.But Agnes put Jasper first and was concerned that he might return at any moment. She said Mother's corpse would pollute our living environment and refused to let me enter the manor, no matter what I said.With no other path left, I went up the mountain to the church there. Ever since I was little, I had seen Mother go there to pray every single day. She had been so devout. I was sure the God she was praying to wouldn't just turn a

When I opened my eyes, the first thing I saw was an opulent room.I slowly turned my head and saw a palace maid beside me, wringing a cloth in her hands. She turned and met my gaze. Then, her face lit up with joy."Her Majesty is awake! I'll inform His Majesty at once!"Before long, Nathaniel hurried in and sat beside the bed. "Isabella, are you feeling any better?"At the sight of him, tears immediately streamed down my face. "Your Majesty… I never thought I'd still have the chance to see you again…"At those words, Nathaniel's heart melted. "Don't worry. I will not spare anyone who harmed you and our child."Hearing this, I reached out and touched my flat abdomen. The pain from realizing my loss ran so deep that it stole my breath.From the very beginning, my marriage into the General's Manor had been a lie. I had finally broken free from it and found another path for myself. I even had a child of my own. Why was Jasper so unwilling to let me go?I sobbed, "Your Majesty, Jasp

The royal physicians arrived quickly. When they saw the injuries on my body, they all sucked in sharp breaths.Nathaniel pressed urgently, "How is she? Can she still be saved?"One of the physicians replied tremblingly, "It is fortunate that Her Majesty had been taking good care of herself for the past few months. Otherwise, she would not have held on until Your Majesty arrived."Nathaniel's heart missed a beat. He asked instinctively, "What about the child?"The physicians fell silent instantly, exchanging uneasy glances. No one dared to speak.Nathaniel looked at my collapsed belly and said in disbelief, "Where is the child?"Boris wept as he lifted a bundle of cloth, carrying something small inside. "Your Majesty, the Crown Prince is gone!"Nathaniel couldn't believe his ears. His shaking hand hovered above the lifeless infant. He couldn't bring himself to lift the cloth for a long while.Boris wailed, "Your Majesty, I am sorry for your loss!"Jasper and Pauline were still

"The King has arrived!"Jasper froze mid-motion.Everyone's gaze shifted to the golden carriage behind him. One by one, they dropped to their knees and cried out, "Greetings, Your Majesty!"Jasper threw down his sword as well and knelt to pay his respects.The king, Nathaniel Stuart, sat in the carriage with an unreadable expression. Only the chief esquire, Boris Banner, who was at his side, had a visibly anxious look on his face.Jasper assumed Nathaniel was displeased because he had delayed entering the palace to report for duty. He hurriedly apologized for his tardiness. "Your Majesty, I have failed to enter the palace at once to report my return. I am sorry about that. You see, a grave matter has occurred in my household, and I was forced to deal with it first."Boris' heart sank. Normally, at this hour, the shadow guards would enter the palace to report what I had eaten for my midday meal. But today, there had been no reports at all.When their men were sent to check the
