The physician shook his head gravely. “His Lordship bears old wounds from his years on the battlefield—individually minor, but together not to be overlooked. His spirit is now exhausted, his mind unsettled.” He listed several medical terms before concluding, “The illness isn’t immediately life-threatening, but it must not be ignored. Left untreated, it could endanger his life. He must rest, stay calm, and maintain a light heart. I’ll prepare some prescriptions; with proper care, he should recover.”

Hearing that her father wasn’t in immediate danger, Miranda felt somewhat relieved.

The King spoke. “Very well. Lord Croyso, return home and focus on your recovery.”

“Your Majesty, I’m deeply grateful,” the Earl said weakly. “But… I have a humble request, if I may…” His eyes turned to Miranda and Selena, full of affection and sorrow.

The King's expression shifted. He studied the Earl and Miranda, then glanced at the physician before silently taking up the prescription, saying nothing.

    On one occasion, when Hans came to visit, the Countess arranged for a pretty maid to lure him into a side room. Then she had someone lead the Earl to that same room, hoping he would catch Hans in a compromising position. But when the Earl opened the door, he found Hans sitting upright, composed, while the maid knelt before him in tears.When questioned, the maid wept and confessed that the Countess had ordered her to seduce Sir Hans. But instead of falling for the trap, Hans had lectured her sternly, made her reflect on her behavior, and guided her to repent sincerely.The Earl was baffled and ordered that the Countess be brought in.Sophie at first denied everything. But the maid spoke clearly and confidently, even producing the jewelry Sophie had given her as payment—items confirmed to belong to the Countess. Left with no way out, Sophie finally admitted to it. She claimed Hans was immoral and unworthy of the Earl’s trust, and that she had set the trap to expose him.Hans, for his p

    Lord Croyso returned to the estate in a royal carriage, accompanied by his two daughters.When Miranda stepped back into the house with Molly, the maids who had once served her came rushing out to greet her, laughing and weeping all at once. After so long apart, their reunion brought with it a flood of concern and affection.Seeing the familiar faces and hearing their voices again, a faint smile touched Miranda’s lips.She let down her guard at last, shedding the caution she had worn for weeks. After a warm bath that washed away the dust and fatigue of palace life, she fell into a deep, undisturbed sleep. When she awoke in the afternoon, Miranda felt lighter than she had in a long time. The soft scent of herbs and flowers filled the room, making the very air feel gentle and soothing.She opened the window, and a fresh breeze poured in. Even the air itself seemed free and relaxed.At that moment, she suddenly thought of Reginald—of that night when he had a high fever and, despite his d

  • Revenge of the Betrayed: The Domineering Duke Falls for Me   Chapter 308: The Earl’s Collapse

    That day, while Miranda was in the palace keeping the Queen Dowager company in casual conversation, a royal attendant came running toward them, breathless and anxious. His face was pale with worry as he said, “My lady Miranda, His Lordship, the Earl of Croyso, collapsed this morning during the council meeting. Even in his unconscious state, he kept murmuring your name. His Majesty the King commands that you come at once to see him!”At these words, Miranda felt as though her mind had gone completely blank.“My father… collapsed?” she murmured, rising to her feet in a daze, her eyes unfocused. “How could my father have collapsed?”Seeing her pale and shaken, the Queen Dowager quickly ordered the attendant to explain everything in detail.“I do not know exactly what happened,” the man said, still catching his breath. “All I know is that during this morning’s council, His Lordship had just risen to speak when he suddenly fell to the ground. The lords were greatly alarmed. His Majesty ord

    Upon returning to the Queen Dowager’s chambers, she immediately noticed the mark of a hand on Miranda’s face. The Queen Dowager frowned deeply and asked her as to what had transpired. Miranda, knowing full well that with the Queen Dowager’s power and influence the truth would soon come to light, saw no need to waste words or risk exposing any weakness. She simply offered a brief account: the Queen had sought to humiliate her, but thanks to the King’s timely arrival, she suffered no great harm.The Queen Dowager offered her words of comfort.It did not take long for word of the incident to reach Selena. When she heard of it, she could not help but feel a surge of anger. The King had shown no desire to stand up for her when she had been humiliated by the Queen, yet now, in almost the same circumstances, he chose to side with Miranda and even reproached the Queen. The more she thought of it, the more bitterly she resented Miranda, hating her to the core.As Miranda had anticipated, the Q

  • Revenge of the Betrayed: The Domineering Duke Falls for Me   Chapter 306: An Unexpected Turn

    Hearing the King’s question, the young eunuch quickly stepped forward and said,"Your Majesty, it is no grave matter. Earlier, I was following the Dowager Queen’s orders to guide Miss Miranda through the palace grounds. When we came across Her Majesty the Queen, a servant approached me in haste, saying that the Dowager Queen required me at once for some urgent matter. But as I followed him towards the Dowager Queen’s residence, I noticed he tried to slip away. Sensing something was wrong, I seized him and brought him before the Dowager Queen. Only then did I learn that Her Majesty the Dowager had sent no such summons."The eunuch continued steadily,"Upon hearing this, the Dowager Queen was greatly angered and ordered the man questioned on the spot. It was soon discovered that he was a minor servant from the Queen’s household. The Dowager Queen said it could not have been done at Her Majesty’s bidding, and concluded that it must have been the man’s own wicked plot for some hidden purp
