Raine counted with her fingers while saying, “If we sell the shop, we should be able to get 20. I've saved some
money over the years too. In addition, Lad has around 10 in his account. If the two of us pool our money
together, we can get 100.”
“1007 Isn't that too little? Moreover, wouldn't Helena suffer as well if you sold the shop?” Isolde asked with a
long face.
Actually, deep down, Isolde was very happy. The Wood family was willing to go into debt to buy Helena out from
slavery. It meant that they really valued her.
Lad’s face turned red on the spot. He said in a low voice, “I won't let her suffer. She can rest easy at home.”
When Helena heard this, she commented, “Do you expectto rest at hwhile you and Mrs. Wood work
your butts off? Won't that makea disabled?”
Lad looked at her and said without thinking, “You can focus on bearing children.”
Helena was enraged. She turned around to leave while chiding, “I'm not sbaby-making machine.”
Lad didn’t know what to do when he saw Helena was angry.
Hazel chimed in and said, “Dumbo, follow her.”
Only then did Lad react and quickly chase after Helena.
Isolde smiled and held Raine’s hand. She revealed, “Alright. | was joking just now. Helena is not bound toby
an indenture. When she started working forin the manor, | burned her contract along with the contracts of
the other girls working for me. She’s a free woman. “As for the money you'll give me, I'll give them all to Helena.
So, you can decide how much money you want to give me. If you givemore, you'll look better in the eyes of
others. If you can’t afford a decent wedding, I'll top up whatever that’s needed. I've allocated a fund for her
wedding.”
Raine was overjoyed. She praised, “Miss Langley, you're really kind-hearted.”
Isolde looked at her and said softly, “Mrs. Wood, | only ask for one thing. Tell Lad to treat Helena better. Don’t
break her heart by taking more than one wife.”
Raine immediately scowled and said, “If that kid dares to do so, Ill be the first to make him suffer.”
Isolde was relieved.
She knew that the Wood family was a good family. Raine and Lad got along well, and they had personalities.
Helena wouldn't be bullied.

Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSince Prudence was about to return to Argentum, Isolde proposed to have the wedding as soon as possible.
Even though it was a rush, the Wood family was more than happy to seal the deal quickly.
Helena, on the other hand, cried in front of Isolde for two consecutive nights after the wedding date was
finalized.
Hazel was an impatient person. When she saw Helena crying, she suggested, “Helena, if you're reluctant to
marry Lad, just ask Noelle to marry him in your place.”

Helena’s face turned pale as she asked, “Why?”
Hazel replied, “I thought you didn’t want to marry Lad?”
Helena said, “Did | say so?”
Finished
Confused, Hazel said, “If you're willing to marry him, then you should be happy now. Why are you crying?”
Helena stammered, “I just can’t bear to part with Miss Langley”
Hazel rolled her eyes and said, “If you miss her, just cback to visit her when you have time. It’s not like the
two of you are separated by life and death. We're only a few streets away. We're literally walking distance away
from each other.”
Isolde smiled and chimed in, “Hazel, leave her be. It's normal for a bride to be emotional. Let her vent her
emotions. She'll be happy later.”
Noelle entered the room and teased, “That's right. Helena, you'll be happy when you see the money Miss
Langley prepared for you.”
Helena shook her head and said, “Miss Langley, | don’t want your money. I've ssavings. | can manage this
myself.”
Isolde said, “Keep what you've saved. I'll give what | want to.” They had been together for many years, and
Isolde know that she would miss Helena dearly. However, she was happy that Helena managed to find herself a
good husband and in-law.
Isolde was uncertain how much longer she had to live. She wanted to make plans for people she cared about as
soon as possible.
The wedding was set to happen on the third of August.
It was not a special date. It had been raining non-stop for a few days, but the weather cleared up on the day of
the wedding. Everyone took that as a good sign.
Moreover, the day before the wedding, the Royal Court officially issued a commendation order, praising Duke of
Blackmoor for killing Milton, who was on the run.
Although there was no reward given, Duke of Blackmoor was overjoyed since he had not received commendation
from the Royal Court for years. He initially thought that he didn’t care. However, he was overwhelmed with
emotion when he finally got the commendation order.
Duke of Blackmoor ordered Harlan to bring lots of gifts to the Pearl Tower early in the morning. They were
wedding gifts for Helena.
This surprised Isolde. She thought Duke of Blackmoor would lose his temper.
After all, Lad was a marriage candidate prepared for her, and yet she matchmade Helena with Lad.
Isolde thought that Duke of Blackmoor would go berserk given his dictatorial personality.
Regardless, Isolde accepted the gifts from Duke of Blackmoor happily.
Noelle took a look at the list of gifts. Her eyes widened in surprise as she exclaimed, “A pair of diamond
bracelets, two sets of hair accessories made of gold and silver, yards of satin, and many other things. Helena,
Duke of Blackmoor is really generous. He treats you like half a daughter.”

Helena glanced at Isolde and said, “I can’t possibly accept all these gifts. Miss Langley, why don’t | return them
to Duke of Blackmoor?”
Isolde said, “Why would you return them? They're gifts. If you reject them, you'll be shaming the Duke. We're not
dumb. We'll take all the free stuff we can get.”
Helena had rejected the gifts at first for the fear of offending Isolde. Since Isolde said so, Helena felt relieved and
happily accepted them.
Isolde did not have any experienced wedding planner around her. So, she engaged the help of Anne, the
maidservant of Matilda, to guide them on what to do.
Helena’s wedding gown was not exquisite, but it was a decent piece completed with an embroidered veil. There
was also intricate embroidery on her wedding gown.
Isolde gave Helena 500 and lots of practical stuff as wedding gifts.
500 was a huge sum of money for an ordinary family. Srich families wouldn't even give their daughters that
much as a wedding gift. However, Isolde didn’t tell Helena about it. She was worried that Helena would reject her
money. Isolde stuffed the money in the new bedding and told Noelle to tell Helena about it after the wedding was
over.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIsolde had been very happy ever since Helena’s wedding was decided.
However, when she finally heard the sound of music welcoming the bride, she was overwhelmed with
emotion.
Helena had been with her since she was five years old. Isolde still remembered the day she met Helena. Helena
looked skinny with her hair in a ponytail. She was wearing tattered clothes and no shoes. The person in charge of
the maids instructed Helena to greet Isolde. Helena did so in a timid voice and lowered her head immediately
after.
Now, Helena was actually getting married.
Not wanting anyone to see the tears in her eyes, Isolde quickly turned around and left the scene. She instructed
Noelle and the Goodwin sisters to see things through.
Helena knew that Isolde was feeling emotional. She bowed in the direction of Isolde’s room and said while crying,
“Miss Langley, I'm leaving now. I'll never forget you.”
Isolde sat in the room with a lump in her throat. She said nothing in response to Helena’s goodbye.
The crowd left with the bride, leaving behind lots of confetti on the ground.
As the noise faded into the distance, Isolde cout of her room. She looked at the confetti all over the ground.
She sighed forlornly. Gradually, she regained her smile.
She reminded herself that this was a joyous occasion.
She would continue seeking suitable husbands for all her maidservants.
Doug said that he had made too many enemies and always wanted to make plans for Isolde. She felt the same
for her maidservants.
Now that Helena was married, she would have her own life and someone who loved her. So, Isolde didn’t need to
worry about Helena anymore.
