The Abandoned Maid of the Grand Duke's Household

Synopsis

“Shall I kill him? Your husband.”

I possessed Julie, a maid in a romance fantasy novel. Of all people, I turned out to be the mother of the female protagonist, who gets pregnant with the Grand Duke's child, is abandoned, and dies on the streets. I hate affairs, and I hate dying a miserable death even more. I thought I could live a normal life as long as I avoided the Grand Duke.

“It's merely a strategic marriage. Trust me, Julie.”

As if ten years of putting up an iron wall wasn't enough, he keeps acting like this even after I'm married. Eventually, with the Grand Duchess's permission, I married a sincere stablehand. I thought I had finally escaped the death ending— On my wedding day, the one who came to find me wasn't the groom, but the Grand Duke.

“Let go of me. My husband is waiting.”

“A husband you haven't even spent your wedding night with?”

“He's still my husband, the one I had a wedding ceremony with.”

All the warmth vanished from the normally affectionate man's face.

“Was that bastard the reason you've been rejecting me all this time?”

Wait, wasn't this the man who was supposed to abandon me? I avoided him so I wouldn't get abandoned, but now he won't let me go. There was nothing about this man's obsession in the novel I read?!
