The Swordswoman's Revenge Story after Rebirth

Chapter 196 Persuading the Sharp family

Doug looked at her. “Are you inuddle-headed? Who would marry you now?

+ Pears

Tears welled up in Isolde’s eyes. “Back then, he proposed to me. Furthermore, the Marquis also mentioned our

marriage in front of many people. Whether he comes back or not, | have to marry him.”

Doug had just said that she was spouting nonsense. Now that he heard her words, he knew that she was serious.

He restrained his expression and berated, “Nonsense. The Marquis is just saying it. How can it be true? You guys

are not engaged. It doesn’t count. No one will take it seriously, and no one will say anything about you.

But Isolde said stubbornly, “I took it seriously. | don’t care if the others really didn’t take it seriously

“You fool!” Doug was furious. “He's already gone. How can you get married? Tell me, how do you get

married?”

I'll marry him, even if he’s just a dead body!”

“Nonsense!” Doug was furious. His face turned ashen. “You are a living girl. What nonsense are you talking

about? | won't allow it!”

Isolde remained silent with a cold expression.

“Stop!” Doug chased after her and grabbed her arm. In his anger, he saw that there were tears in her eyes. His

heart ached, and his tone softened slightly. “There are still many things you can do for him. It's not worth it to

lose your life.”

Isolde’s heart was desolate. She didn’t mind giving up her entire life. It was very short, anyway.

She didn’t care. She just had to do what needed to be done.

Tve decided, Doug. Don't say it again.” Isolde reached out and hugged him. She threw herself into his arms,

greedy for the warmth of the father’s love. Just like when she was young, her voice was clear, but her tone was

soft. “I have an irreconcilable feud with speople in the Valen family. I'm not just doing this for Oliver.”

“What do you mean?” Doug was shocked. He held her shoulders and looked into her eyes. There was deep

hatred in her eyes. “Is it to end the engagement

“No, it's not.” Isolde shook her head. The hatred and disgust in her eyes did not diminish at all. On the contrary,

it beceven stronger. She gritted her teeth and said, “What Margaret and William did was even worse than

what Prudence did to my mother. Doug, don’t ask, and don’t meddle. If | don’t take revenge. | will not die in

peace.”

Doug was suddenly shocked. “Tell me, what exactly did Margaret and William do to you?”

“Ill tell you everything if you agree to my marriage with Oliver,” Isolde pleaded.

If she wanted a marriage with a dead man, she could not do it alone. Not to mention her grand rents; even Pablo

would not agree.

“No, no, | can’t ruin your life. Doug did not know what she had experienced, but she could not marry a dead

person just like this, or her life would be ruined.

condition Lady Sadie Bourbon said that it can’t be cured. At most, | only have three years to live. Isn't it very

compatible for a dying person to marry a dead person?”

Doug's face turned pale as he glared at her. “I don’t believe it

“Ask Sadie yourself if you don’t believe me.”

“I don’t believe it. | don’t believe it!” Doug said in a deep voice. “Even if it’s true, there must be a way to save

You

“Sadie has mastered the medical skills passed down by the Queen Mother. If she says there's no hope, then

there truly is no hope.”

Doug gritted his teeth. “That old thing is so vicious!”

“Doug, help me. | want to marry Oliver and take revenge.” Isolde forced back her tears. Seeing her master like

this, she felt very sad.

If she had a choice, she would not have let her master know this at all.

“Marry Oliver so that | won't have no one to rely on after | die,” Isolde said with tears in her eyes.

Doug was extremely sad. He closed his eyes and let out a long sigh. “We'll discuss it after | meet with Lady Sadie

Bourbon.”

“Regarding the battle...”

“Not this for now. I'll gauge the Queen Mother's opinion in a couple of days and then we can discuss it further.”

He was so weighed down by his thoughts that he couldn't speak. He sent Isolde back first and then went straight

to find Sadie.

When Sadie confirmed Isolde’s words, Doug only felt a sharp pain in his heart.

He had cared about two women in his life.

One was Prunella, and the other was Prunella’s daughter, Isolde.

He had already treated Isolde as his own daughter.

She had, at most, three years to live, and all medical treatments had failed.

He staggered out of the Bourbon family. Having served as the Chief of the Southern Watch for so many years, for

the first time, he found himself at a loss for how to cope,

Sadie sighed softly. Behind her, her maid, Vita Mills, asked, “Lady, why didn’t you tell Doug that if County

Princess marries, she might be able to extend her lifespan?”

*Since Isolde didn’t say anything, there's no need forto say it,” Sadie said.

Doug returned to his residence and thought about it for a long time. In the end, he had no choice but to

look for Garrett.

“You're saying that she wants to marry Oliver?” Garrett was also shocked, “Why?”

Chapter 196 Persuading the Sharp family

Doug could not bear to tell him. He only said, “She and Oliver are already deeply in love. She insists on it.”

“He’s already dead. So what if she’s deeply in love? The marriage with a dead man will ruin the rest of her life.

Garrett rejected immediately. “No, | won't agree.”

Doug sighed. “This child has the spersonality as her mother. If she decides on something, she won't be able

to pull it back.”

Garrett couldn’t accept this. Although he knew that Oliver was Douglas’s son and hell him in high regard, if

Oliver was alive, he wished for their marriage, but now that Oliver was dead, he absolutely wouldn't allow it.

He said, “I think there's a kid called Anthony Bentley who's not had. Moreover, he’s wholeheartedly loyal to

Isolde. I'll talk to her.”

Anthony searched frantically for Isolde after she went missing. Someone reported this to Garrett, who then took

notice of the young man.

“It’s useless. I've said everything that needs to be said. She still insists on marrying Oliver. This child is

extraordinarily stubborn.” Doug sighed.

“No matter how stubborn she is, she can’t be so ridiculous. Is she treating her marriage as a joke? No, no”

Garrett waved his hand.

Doug felt conflicted.

Of course, he did not want Isolde to marry Oliver's dead body,

However, her own life expectancy was limited, with three years being the maximum; it could be as short as

year or half a year. Wouldn't it be better to simply let her have her way? he thought.

At the thought of this, he could only tell Garrett everything. Isolde has an illness that can’t be cured. Sadie says

that she has no more than three years to live. If she likes it, let her be. As long as she’s happy, there's nothing

more important than her being happy.”

Garrett's expression changed drastically. “Nonsense!”

Doug said with a heavy expression, “It’s true. I've been to the Bourbon family and asked Lady Sadie Bourbon.

She said that it was because Prunella had been consuming poison for a long twhen she was pregnant with

Isolde. Fortunately, Isolde had practiced martial arts since she was young. Otherwise, she would have died long

ago.”

Garrett was stunned as he listened to this. His heart ached. ‘Impossible, impossible. If Natasha finds out, it will

be terrible... How could this be? Why is destiny so cruel to this child?”
