Rebirth of The Duchess

Episode 3

Everyone in the family knew that Clara, the sixth daughter of the Count of Bourbon family, suffered from a cold after getting caught in heavy rain.

At that time, everyone thought it was just an ordinary cold. Unexpectedly, she became seriously ill and suffered sequelae.

Firstly, when she heard the sound of water, she covered her ears in fear. Furthermore, her joints gradually became stiff and numb, and she was unable to get out of bed and walk at all.

After that, some people began to spread rumors that the sixth daughter of the Count's family was possessed by a ghost.

Prime Minister Jules even made plans to ask a priest to exercise the evil spirits.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, Mrs. Marie spent a lot of money to hire a wandering doctor. The doctor got up, checked Clara's pulse, stroked his beard, and confidently stated that Miss was just suffering from wind-cold and accumulated cold air in her body. She would be cured after using a few prescriptions for a period of time.

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Marie burst into tears of joy on the spot and bowed to the doctor again and again.

Unexpectedly, Clara's health really improved day by day after taking the medicine.

For example, she could easily hold Amy's right hand that wiped her tears.

Amy seemed startled. She stopped moving her hands and asked, "Girl, are you thirsty? Do you want to drink..."

The word "water" at the back was forcefully swallowed.

Clara shook her head but did not let go. Instead, she looked at Amy's familiar face, studied it for a moment, and said word by word, "Thank you, Amy."

"Girl, don’t say it." Amy's eyes flashed with panic. "Please don't say that in the future."

When Clara heard what she said, she let go of her hand. In her previous life, Amy stayed with her in the Count's Mansion and never enjoyed a single day of happiness. Later, after she married into the Duke's Mansion, her life became even worse.

Not to mention that the master and servant were not treated well by Louis; just the rolling looks from those little maids were enough to make people bear it.

It just so happened that in her previous life, she was a submissive person who resigned to her fate and had no intention of resisting at all. Therefore, she had her reasons for the ending she ended up with.

Tuk, Tuk, Tuk.

There was a rapid knock on the door, and Clara and Amy looked at each other tacitly.

In the dead of night, who would come at this time?

"Amy, it's Aunt Adel. Open the door quickly."

Hearing the familiar voice, Amy quickly walked over, opened the door, and a woman walked in.

Long face, short and fat figure. She had a shawl wrapped around her body, and her face was as dim as a lamplight.

"I just got up at night and saw the lights in the room were on, so I thought the girl was awake, so I rushed over to take a look." Aunt Adel covered her mouth with her hands and lowered her voice very low.

While she was talking, she turned her head and looked behind the bed curtain.

Aunt Adel is Clara's old nanny and has been with her since she was a child.

She could still recall the way Aunt Adel cried bitterly to Clara when she got married in her previous life.

Unfortunately, not long after she married into the Duke's mansion, she heard that Aunt Adel had been kicked out of the mansion because she had made a mistake.

When she heard the news, she sent people around to find people. However, after searching all over the capital, no one could be found.

She pursed her lips and smiled at her, "Excuse me, Auntie. I'm much better now."

When the middle-aged woman heard this, her eyes instantly turned red. She wiped her tears and said, "I really hope the girl will get better soon, otherwise it will be Miss Seventh's birthday in a few days. The house must be bustling again, and I am worried about the master...the master..."

"Worried that my father will neglect me?" Clara couldn't help but take over the conversation, and then laughed twice, "It doesn't matter, I happen to want to be quiet."

Her father, Jules Bourbon, had always been cold and indifferent towards her, and he couldn't say he liked her very much.

Therefore, the reason why her father chose to marry her into the Duke of Gilard’s family against all odds... She couldn't figure it out until she died.

Because, no matter in terms of origin or appearance, there are several sisters who are better than her and of noble birth.

Why did her father choose her?

Aunt Adel walked over, held her hand, and smiled warmly, "Girl, your health is much better. You don't know, the night you just woke up ten days ago scared the old slave."

In fact, it was that night that Clara realized that she was twelve years old again for no reason.

However, the fear in her heart far outweighed her curiosity at that time. At that time, her legs and feet were stiff, her ears hurt, and she was hesitant and could not even speak completely.

It wasn't until she took the medicine her mother had asked for that she felt her consciousness gradually return.

For the past ten days, she had been in a hazy state, waking up from time to time. When she wakes up, she can always see her mother’s long-lost face. And as soon as she falls into a dream, all she dreams about is scenes from her previous life.

Together with the suffocating feeling of drowning, it was also frighteningly clear.

But the more capricious she became, the more she felt that God asked her to live again because of sympathy for her experiences in her previous life. Therefore, what she should do now is actually to rewrite her destiny and not make the same mistakes again.
