"During the party, Greta added some poisonous herbs in Queen's tea and that caused her a severe bleeding"

"Queen panicked and told my grandmother about it"

"So, Greta brought Queen to the hospital. And, the condition became serious that the Queen had miscarriage. At that time there was no technology or advanced medical treatment, so the doctors failed to identify what actually has happened"

"Greta was somehow connected to the doctors there and she somehow made them lie to the Queen that her body was really not suitable to give birth."

"So, they prescribed her some herbal medicines to recover. However, they aren't medicines but some poisonous items that could harm the reproductive system."

"Meanwhile worried that the King might get furious, The Queen asked Greta not to tell anyone about this. Greta agreed. She knew that these medicines Queen was using will totally destroy her reproductive system"

"So, my vicious grandmother patiently waited for that to happen. And when that doctors told her that she could proceed with her plan, Greta suggested King to take the Queen for check up"

"Almost two years passed after they married. Though they were trying hard, they couldn't get pregnant. However, they didn't want to make a fuss about it, so he got her checked by the doctor Greta knows and that doctor lied that she was fine. He didn't take her to hospital afraid it would get leaked and people would start speculating"

"Meanwhile, my grandfather was getting pressured from his parents who were already believing that the Queen was really a 'jinx'."

"So, left with no option, he took his first wife for check up to the hospital. And it was only when that doctors said that his wife's reproductive system was not at all healthy and she could not give birth"

"However, my grandfather didn't agree to marry anyone else. He said, they could adopt a child from branch family"

"He truly loved his first wife and he didn't want to marry others just because she could not give birth. And, that was when Greta secretly spreaded the news that 'Queen' didn't want children and that she deliberately aborted her first child, and that, in that process of aborting the child, her reproductive system got damaged and weakened" Ethan narrated.

"When King heard that, he got furious. His first wife begged, swearing that she didn't do it intentionally. However the proofs against her claim were so strong that King couldn't believe her anymore"

"His love for his wife turned into hate and he immediately divorced her, banished her off the Kingdom. He felt betrayed, depressed and fooled."

"Like that, the bride selection event happened again and my grandmother won it. Like this she became Queen. After she became Queen, she made sure there won't be any evidence of this. However, I managed to pull the strings somehow" Ethan finished.

Meanwhile, Brina sat there, frozen.

So.. So… inhumane.

For a woman, motherhood is a blessing. Greta just took it away from an innocent woman!!

So inhumane and vicious!

She never thought Greta could be this bad!

No wonder God didn't give her a happy married life. She remembers what Louis told her once.

His father never had a happy childhood because his parents always fought.

And, that is the reason King Edgar married the woman he loved and encouraged both of his sons to do the same.

Moreover it also explains why Greta loathed the Queens who got second position, yet, got selected as queen's.

For example, Louis's biological mother, Queen Rhea and his step mother, the current Queen, Queen Elora. And, who got the first rank back then was Olivia's mother and her mother's elder sister.

It also explained why Greta supported Olivia and her family because they always were first and as vicious as her. A perfect match!

"The black mail?" Brina asked Ethan, her voice shaky. She could feel her light head taking over her.

She felt like she would faint now. This information is so overwhelming and disturbing that it started taking over her.

"If the black mail was about this, I would have told you, Brina. Unfortunately it is about something else. I am still looking into it. I got sidetracked while I investigated this matter, thinking that this could be the blackmailing piece Olivia's grandfather used on her" Ethan said.

"And, please don't tell this to anyone, Brina. I don't want Dad to know that he was born to such a loathsome woman" he asked.

"Why not? She is a criminal Ethan. And I am sure father won't appreciate this." Brina argued. Angry!

Greta is more than a criminal. Being pregnant, Brina couldn't get herself to digest this. She never thought Greta could be this inhumane.

"But what will happen now, Huh? She is harmless now and doesn't have power to do this sort of thing anymore. By revealing the truth, we will only hurt my dad" Ethan retorted.

"You won't understand," he scoffed, making Brina more angry.

She doesn't understand?? No one could understand it better than her now.

"What makes you think that she is powerless, idiot? She wouldn't have been able to help Olivia if she doesn't have that power" Brina argued.

"You can't underestimate her," she added, scoffing at him.

But she is shaking. Her body is trembling.

How could she be so negligent? She had let Greta play her game and almost had her win it.

A tear rolled down her cheek when she remembered that she had a little life in her.

What if.. What if… Greta did.. did this to her as well. And, what if.... What if she was already in Greta's trap?

Her baby.. Her baby...

Has the history already got repeated? She knows her case wouldn't be as worse as that of the Queen's.

But, her baby?

Is it safe?

Or, already got poisoned?

"Hey, what's wrong, why are you trembling and pale?" Ethan asked, alarmed.

And, before he could speak more, Brina fainted, shocking Ethan.
