Chapter 39: Punishment
Both Arabella and Ferdinand blushed. No, everyone in the room did except for the doctor.
The doctor clearly told Ferdinand to hold back his urges so Arabella could rest since it would also be hard for her to get pregnant if she was always exhausted.
She felt bad for Ferdinand since they haven’t even done anything.
But he did visit her room every night and slept in her bed so everyone misunderstood.
Now someone even spread rumors that she was pregnant.
"I know. That’s exactly why I was heading to the borders," Ferdinand said with irritation and Raymond chuckled silently.
[Must be hard to hold back, huh? Now you know how I feel when you keep sending more work and I can’t spend time with my wife.]
Raymond smirked and Ferdinand glared at him.
Meanwhile, Alwin had outrageous thoughts.
[I’m so relieved she’s not pregnant. If this wench is pregnant but I cannot detect the child, it meant it wasn’t milord’s child.]
’What?! This bastard. I already thought I would forgive all his rudeness because I know now he’s not a bad person. But how can he think I would marry Ferdinand with someone else’s child already inside me?!’
