Chapter 186: Just Ferdinand’s Butler [Bonus - ]
’She knows!’ Arabella stared at her cup and took a sip to hide the excitement in her eyes.
Arabella learned so much from their thoughts as she conversed with the Reginalds.
Among them, she learned that Theresa was even more horrified when Regis brought her to Estrella and showed his true form.
Regis was an elf and he was working for the King of Estrella.
There was just a bit of difference between the appearance of an elf and a human but Theresa was still horrified.
Being married and in love with something not human also made her question herself and her sanity for falling for Regis. Especially since Eliora and the rest of the world do not accept monsters or the existence of other beings for that matter.
Theresa also formerly thought of Regis as a monster even though he explained that monsters and the long-lived races were different. She could not accept Regis and demanded divorce even more.
But Ronald was already three years old then. And he was half-elf. If they divorce, Ronald would be in Regis’ custody and would be brought to Estrella. Theresa might never see him again.
Rejecting Regis also meant rejecting her own child, Ronald. If Regis was a monster, then so was Ronald.
