“That can’t be true! If she really wants to rely on a powerful family, wasn’t Samuel a good match? He loved her dearly.”

Melanie smiled bitterly. “Samuel was the Earl of Gracehold’s heir and a top scholar. However, he married the Duchess of Everpeace, Prince Harvey’s daughter, Since that was the case, Celeste had no hope of rising higher. Samuel may have said he loved her, but he never truly did anything for her. He doted on her, but he wouldn’t dare elevate her to the status of a rightful wife.”

Carmen blinked in confusion. “A rightful wife?”

If she can’t become a rightful wife, she’ll just be a concubine. Even if the main wife dies, she won’t attain her desired status. She said she could accept being a concubine, but she doesn’t want to spend her life in that role.”
