Chapter 170: They are back
Abrielle’s brows furrowed, wondering what else there could be. "Another reason," she mumbled.
The fire was crackling softly; they were the only ones in here, and it was dark already. Under normal conditions, it wasn’t an idea for a married lady to be in a place like this, but Sebastian was a priest, so it was considered an exception.
"Yes, although it was something I overheard hearing father and uncle talking about relating your birth and mother." Sebastian went on, Abrielle’s grip subconsciously tightened around her cup, wondering if Sebastian had any idea about the fact her magic was sealed at birth.
"Now you are making me scared," Abrielle blurted. Sebastian sighed. He was dressed in all white in his official clothes; Sebastian was rather handsome, owing to the good traits of the Nightshade family. Abrielle’s looks were mostly from her mother’s side, including her magic too.
Her parents must have been disappointed when they saw her red hair. "I don’t know how to put it but I think your miscarriage is tied to the reason you are the only child. Before you were born, your mother suffered a lot of miscarriages. That’s why, to your parents, you are their little treasure after multiple failed attempts."
"I also heard the story, that’s why Mum was a bit scared of losing me, knowing how difficult her pregnancy was," Abrielle answered, her heart squeezed a bit knowing of her fate. Rebecca would be devastated by Abrielle’s death if that were to happen.
"Yeah, I was thinking, what if you end up having the same problem, it is obvious to take more from aunt’s side of the family? Inability to have children will be a serious problem being married to the royal family," Sebastian explained honestly, concerned about Abrielle.
Abrielle knew that children were important to Cedric, but she didn’t plan on having any for him, and with the system, she might not have it either. She knew her miscarriage was a result of the system and not her mother’s condition.
"I know but it’s still early. I will pray about it."
