The Swordswoman's Revenge Story after Rebirth

Chapter 299

Chapter 299 Further Cooperation

When Isolde left the palace, Oliver was waiting outside.

Seeing her come out, he glanced around to make sure no one was watching, then pulled her into his carriage.

“Why so sneaky?” Isolde asked, puzzled.

“We’re not married yet. If people see us together, they’ll gossip about you,” Oliver said, letting out a sigh.

“Are you afraid of gossip?” Isolde asked.

“Not for myself, but I don’t want people talking about you,” Oliver replied, taking her hand and rubbing it gently. “Are you cold?”

Isolde smiled warmly, “No, I’m not cold.” In truth, your hand is colder, especially the metallic one.

Oliver looked at her face, which was no longer clouded with worry. Her eyes were clear as if she had finally come to terms with something. He couldn’t help but ask, “What did Queen Mother say to you?”

“She told me everything I wanted to know,” Isolde said, leaning her head on his shoulder. They had a life- and–death bond, and now, it finally felt real.

Before, even with their wedding approaching, she had always felt a sense of unreality. How could such a man belong to her?

Previously, no matter how much the King rewarded her–whether as a County Princess, a Princess, or even a Marshal–she would always doubt herself.

But now, understanding what she needed to do and why she had been chosen, she realized it wasn’t because of her beauty but because of her abilities.

Since Queen Mother had affirmed her capabilities, what reason did she have to belittle herself?

Seeing her silly smile, Oliver, though still curious, felt relieved.

“Alright, get out of the carriage and go back. Esme is waiting outside. If we take too long, she’ll start overthinking,” Oliver said, gently urging her to leave.

Isolde lifted the curtain and saw Esme standing nervously outside.

She got out of the carriage, and Esme quickly pulled her into their own carriage.

“There’s no need to be so nervous. We were just talking,” Isolde said with a laugh.

“The palace is full of important people. We don’t want anyone seeing you and spreading rumors,” Esme replied.

“Since when did you become so cautious?” Isolde asked as she got into the carriage. “I remember when you first came to me, you were so decisive and bold.”

Esme gave her a gentle look. “It’s because I care more now.”
