The Return of the Mad Witch
Welcome to

The entire room was stunned to hear Adarian's decision, he was indeed impressed to love Linnea, but to make Linnea an adopted child was a serious decision and could not be decided on the side alone. Meanwhile, Adarian still had Helen as his legal wife. As the Grand Duchess of this residence, Helen also had the right to decide, she had the right to give her opinion first.

Helen's expression looked unhappy because she felt this was not fair at all to her. Though she gave birth to a daughter, but Adarian even more loving to other people's children than his own. Here the two eyes of Helen roiled furiously, the decision was not profitable for him.

“Grand Duke, are you making a joke? How could you just decide without saying it to me first? Do you consider me insignificant in this residence?”

Attention is now diverted to Helen, the woman expressly reveals the awkwardness in everyone's mind.

“It seems you disagree, Grand Duchess.” Adarian shines a sharp look at Helen. “This is my decision, you can't interfere with every single thing I decide. I don't care if you agree or not, obviously I'm going to keep Linnea in this family, ” staunchly Adarian.

“You do not consider my existence here? However, my position in this residence as the hostess. You cannot decide everything at will, I will oppose everything that is inversely proportional to my opinion. Moreover, it is related to lifting a child, even though you yourself also have a daughter.”

Helen resolutely opposed Adarian's decision, Linnea's expression was no longer due to seeing Helen who was blatantly staring dislike at her. However, the highest authority in the family after the Grand Duke is the Grand Duchess. So, Linnea's position would be swayed if the Grand Duchess did not like it.

“Daughter you said? Can Valencia be called my daughter?”

Helen's eyes were perfectly rounded, although she had never treated Valencia well. However, Helen did not accept Adarian saying so about her own daughter. In fact, Adarian was the most important person in the change of attitude Valencia.

“He's your daughter! Although he often acts like that, but he remains your own flesh and blood. You can not arbitrarily make a decision, even you do not include the opinion of Valencia here!”

Unknowingly, Helen raised her voice to Adarian so that it caused a commotion between the two. Valencia was still listening until the end behind the entrance leaf, he needed to pay further attention to the debate between his parents.

“How dare you raise your voice to me!” Adarian rose from his position, his anger stirring in the chest. “You are here to behave like the most important person, you should be aware of your position. If you were not his sister Empress, I would have long since removed you and given your position to Guilla.”

Hearing Adarian's words made Helen immediately ride apitam. “Then just try to get rid of me now so you can bring the child into this family! Don't you love that child as much as your own?! Now show all your affection, be it to Guilla, Endry, or this girl!”

“You!” Unfortunately hearing Helen's words, Adarian raised his hand and planned to land a slap on Helen's cheek, but Valencia appeared and stopped Adarian's intentions.

“Grand Duke, it seems you still haven't changed, huh. Slapping the woman was the attitude of a trash. Ah, I forgot, you are indeed trash, even worse than a piece of trash,” chirps Valencia emerged from the entrance.

Valencia leaned against the doorway while folding both hands on his chest and smiling. Valencia saw Adarian's hand still raised and almost hit Helen's cheek. Although Valencia did not like Helen, but a man who beat a woman still should not be left alone.

“Why are you here?! I never called you into my room,” after Adarian.

On the other hand, Linnea was looking at Valencia full of hatred, he did not forget for a second what Valencia had done to him.

“I've been here since, I accidentally saw you from a distance bringing the damn girl here. Seeing that, I also decided to eavesdrop on your conversation and apparently you intend to raise him as a child,” replied Valencia in a relaxed tone.

“Do you think the same as your mother? I won't falter even if you also reject my decision.”

“Who said I would refuse? It should be better for Linnea to be taken care of by you than to live alone by the road, she might even go into a brothel to survive. Just take care of the orphan well, I hope he won't cause me any trouble.”

Valencia pressed down on every word he said as if he was intentionally doing it to insinuate Linnea. He no longer cares about anything Adarian does because sooner or later he will definitely leave this family.

“Even without you telling me I will still take good care of him. Yes, thank goodness you didn't go against my decision.” Adarian's tone declined as Valencia expressed its agreement with his decision.

“Then the Grand Duchess, you better not go against the Grand Duke's decision, just maintain your position in this family. After all that woman will not dare to mess with you, you also have the right to punish her later if she dares to be impolite, he said,” Valencia told Helen then Valencia turned back to Adarian. “That's right, Grand Duke?”

Adarian flinched and did not immediately reply, Valencia's smile filled with an evil aura, he flutter as soon as Valencia showed clearly that there was a hidden intent behind his smile. Linnea also felt it, the evil aura of Valencia was difficult to hide.

“Why are you quiet, Grand Duke? I take that as a nod of approval from you. Well, now the problem's sorted out, right? It's best that the Grand Duchess take a rest now, don't waste energy opposing that useless decision.”

Helen showed no more resistance, she jerked away from Adarian's room and took her servants out. Helen also highlighted Linnea's dislike, she actually felt an Adarian injustice towards her.

The situation in the Adarian room is now back to being conducive, there is no tension and there is no commotion like before. Valencia manages to drive away Helen's subtlety while making Adarian lower his emotions. Then Valencia walked towards Linnea, he approached the girl to observe the condition of her body which was still wrapped in many bandages.

“Welcome, Linnea. Congratulations on being my sister and congratulations on you making it out of a heartbreaking life full of poverty,” circus Valencia while reaching out to shake.

Linnea immediately changed her expression, just as usual, she showed the fake sweet smile she used to show others. Then Linnea replied to Valencia's hand, trying to maintain his good image in front of everyone.

“Thank you, Valencia for welcoming me as your sister,”.

“Yes, I hope you feel at home as my sister.”

After that, Valencia turned around leaving Adarian's room, now he would let Linnea have some fun before he brought disaster to Linnea's life later.

‘I made it into this family, this way I can be the center of attention of everyone and Valencia will be increasingly hated by the Grand Duke,’ Inner Linnea smiled proudly.

Linnea was welcomed by the servants and knights, their treatment being inversely proportional when dealing with Valencia. The entire occupants of this residence were blind, they could not even see how good Valencia's reputation was in the Alegra Empire. Nor could they see how well the Emperor and Empress treated Valencia. Yes, they were completely blind, blinded by Linnea's false innocence.

That same day, Adarian rushed to take care of Linnea's adoption documents, because the girl was from a fallen noble, so the paperwork was fairly easy. Not to forget also Adarian invited famous fashion designers to make clothes that are very good for Linnea. Even the price of Linnea's clothes was expensive, for the life of Valencia, he had never received such warm treatment from Adarian.

The news of Adarian adopting Linnea straight up to Henzo's hearing, he looked furious at the reports from his subordinates.

“Hah? So, that stupid Grand Duke adopted the girl who made a fuss in the palace earlier? God, I don't understand why he's doing so much for the girl. What has the two-faced girl done to conquer the heart of the Grand Duke?” ask Henzo.

“Based on my investigation, Miss Linnea once helped Grand Duke who was injured by a monster attack. That was why Grand Duke felt a debt of gratitude to Miss Linnea,” was clearly one of Henzo's subordinates.

Henzo giggled at the explanation of his subordinates. “Because of that? Hahaha, means the same as me. If she adopts a two-faced child who has made Valencia hurt, then I will also adopt her daughter.”

“Then, Your Majesty, I also get a report that the Grand Duke bought Miss Linnea a nice and expensive outfit. Whereas during Miss Valencia became her daughter, Miss Valencia has never received such warm treatment.”

Henzo's expression turned cold, again hearing Adarian's unfair treatment of Valencia.

“How dare that man treat my future daughter unfairly. Now take out all the clothing materials we got from the Ergis Empire! Have the palace fashion designer make the most attractive and charming clothes for Valencia!” Henzo's Letters.

Henzo's subordinates were astonished at Henzo's orders, for a moment they were unable to say more.

“What? Isn't Ergis clothing a very expensive garment, Your Majesty? Are you sure you will give it to Miss Valencia?”

“Something is wrong? The clothes we can still get later. Valencia is the most important!” henzo Bending.

The reason why they hesitated to obey Henzo's orders was because the clothing materials of the Ergis Kingdom were of great value and also very expensive. To buy her clothes is quite difficult because it takes a year of waiting until the clothes are made. This was because the clothing materials of the Ergis Empire were made using rare and high-quality materials. However, any clothes produced from her clothing materials were also extremely glowing. Therefore, not a few of the hunting nobles bought clothing materials from the Ergis Empire.
