The Girl He Dumped Becomes a Billionaire.

Chapter 14

The Head Servant who had "resolved" the sibling argument would nod at Marianne, signaling her to follow her to the office of the female Grand Duke of the Grand Duchy of Norsca.

Lucius originally wanted to travel with Marianne, but was stopped by the head waitress the moment he stepped out.

"Your Excellency, there is a more important task on you." The head maid who stopped her pace turned back, her gentle tone filled with a sternness that could not be refused, "The foolish prince of Obstar has come back to test the position of this female Grand Duke."

"Can I just drive him away?" Lucius couldn't stop his headache when he thought of that half-brother, "He runs here two times in three days, making people wonder whether he is the prince of Obstar or the prince of the Grand Duchy of Norsca."

"If Count Calda was half as attached to his children as he is to his nephew, the family would not be as cold as a cellar in the abyss." The head waiter said without any emotion, "Even for the sake of the peace of the Grand Duchy of Norsca, I ask you to remove him at once."

Lucius exchanged a glance with the Head Servant, then looked at Marianne, and finally made a deep bow at his half-sister before leaving the court of the Grand Duchy of Norsca with great strides.

The Head Maid looked Marianne up and down after Lucius had gone, and finally, in a deserted section of the corridor, made a slight remark that almost made Marianne trip.

"Your Highness, I hope you and Lucius have not developed a relationship beyond ethics."

Marianne turned her head sideways, noticing that the Head Servant's expression was as stoic as ever, as well as serious. It was like a goddess of justice holding the scales high, making it impossible to guess what she was really thinking.

"His Excellency Lucius has the looks and character of a man's heart." The head waitress's voice was so flat that it was like a holy spring in a prayer service, allowing one to take a shallow sip and lose all flavor in the mouth.

"There is no shortage of dirty corners in royal families." The head waitress finally had a change of expression before opening the large door to the study, "But for your safety, do not become too intimate with Lucius, and do not use it to control him."

Marianne looked straight into the headwaiter's gray-blue eyes and finally broke into a light smile, "I will keep your words in mind." Her face clearly had an expression of vain curiosity, but the words she uttered caused the head waitress to subconsciously purse her lips, "If Lucius wasn't a half-brother, perhaps I would really have an overly intimate relationship with him."

"After all, he's so good looking that it would be a very difficult thing for me to hold back from striking out at him."

The head waitress watched Marianne close the door to her study and suddenly realized that in the underworld, something seemed to have changed.

"You and Henry are arguing again." The long awaited female Grand Duke of the Grand Duchy of Norsca was questioning in a sure tone as soon as they met.

Marianne had already expected this to happen, so she didn't even raise her eyes and said, "Isn't this something to be expected?"

The female Grand Duke of the Grand Duchy of Norsca's hand that was smoothing the dog's fur had a momentary pause, re-surveying her own daughter like the Head Maid of Honor had done a moment ago, and finally slowly laughed, "I haven't seen you in a few years, but you've flushed out your temper and the tone of your voice quite a bit. Could it be that you think you've hardened your wings so you can call me out to my face."

Marianne finally looked her mother straight in the eye before sighing slightly helplessly, "If I had dared to call your bluff, I wouldn't have asked you for help and then come back with Lucius."

It was important to realize that Marianne was a wealthy woman who owned three cities, and even if she was out of the control of this female Grand Duke of the Grand Duchy of Norsca, she was still able to live comfortably off of the city's taxes and annuities.

Even if the female Grand Duke of Norsca wanted to "teach" this disobedient daughter a lesson, Marianne had enough leverage to find a backer that the female Grand Duke of Norsca could not afford to mess with.

However, with such an advantage, Marianne still chose to obey the wishes of the female Grand Duke of Norsca.

After all, while others might have screwed her over without spitting, this female Grand Duke of Norsca would mercifully leave her alive even if she screwed her over.

This was the difference between an outsider and her own mother.

"You're always so well-informed and know how to show your 'naughty and cute' on the right occasions." This female Grand Duke of the Grand Duchy of Norsca exclaimed in what appeared to be a complaint, "If your brother and father were half as understanding as you, our family wouldn't have ended up in this situation."

In the face of her mother's complaint, Marianne also very sweetly retorted back, "If Lord Father had been half as understanding as I am, he probably wouldn't have half-entered the Grand Duchy of Norsca and then regretted it to this day."

The female Grand Duke of the Grand Duchy of Norsca, who was choked for a moment, put the puppy on her lap on the ground, and then agreed with Marianne's words, "You're right, if your father hadn't been swayed by his emotions back then, he wouldn't have half-entered into the Grand Duchy of Norsca, and then grubbed me up to live in a life of pampering. "

Speaking of this, the female Grand Duke of Norsca also took a sip of tea and said with a hint of luck: "The only thing I'm thankful for is that your father still has a sense of reason and responsibility, and didn't use my money to support his mistresses and illegitimate children."

Just like the female Grand Duke of the Grand Duchy of Norsca who gave birth to Lucius before her marriage, Count Calda also had a bittersweet romance with a squire's daughter before he took over for his eldest brother, and the other party is still Count Calda's mistress to this day, with whom he has a small home in the Count's Domain.

The female Grand Duke of the Grand Duchy of Norsca has no qualms about Count Calda having an heir and spending time with another woman. After all, they had made it clear to each other before they married that they would only fulfill the basic obligations of a political union, especially since the female Grand Duke of Norsca was unable to have children, Count Calda no longer roomed with the female Grand Duke of Norsca except for an occasional visit to check on the status of his two children, and even moved out of his wife's court just before Marianne's second marriage proposal. Even before Marianne's second marriage proposal, Count Calda moved out of his wife's court to live in seclusion with his mistress and illegitimate children in a small village in the Count's domain.

For Marianne, Count Caldar, whom she doesn't see more than a few times a year, is the most familiar of strangers.

Although his love and attention to his two legitimate children is far less than the illegitimate children he watched grow up, but in the eyes of the female Grand Duke of the Grand Duchy of Norsca, as long as he doesn't take his own money to support his mistress and illegitimate children, and as long as he doesn't bring his illegitimate children to her to reluctantly wander around in front of her, then Count Caldar is with his mistress to give birth to a child of the soccer team, also not the female Grand Duke of the Grand Duchy of Norsca's business. Grand Duke's business.

Of course, with the Count's annuity and territorial income, there was no way he could ever raise too many children.

Especially since Count Calda always wanted his illegitimate children to be recognized by the high society, so he invested a lot of money in their education. This also led to the fact that Count Caldar had been living on a tight budget after his illegitimate children came to understand, and even needed to rely on "blackmailing" the elder brother who let him take over the business to maintain the count's decent life.

What makes Count Calda even more angry is that both of them were born as bastards, so why did Lucius live in such a beautiful life while his favorite children could only live in the countryside at a snail's pace.

In this regard, Count Calda's mistress had politely hinted to her lover to go to the Grand Duke of Norsca to find this woman to talk about the conditions, but the thought of his wife's acerbic and powerful aura, Count Calda will be terrified to even enter the court of the Grand Duchy of Norsca's courage are not.
