"Nick, she is acting, what could happen to her when she was in her room all day, she must be angry over the trick lady Sophie had played on her." added Isabella and Nick sighed.
"Abi, haven't I told you a thousand tis that stay away with lady Sophia, you should not care much about it that she is duke's daughter, we are duke too." he said shaking his head, as if he was disappointed in .
I furrowed my brows at the statent, Sophia, Sophia! It took a while to rember the past as in the past 25 years of my life, I only rembered my family mbers, but no one else.
Sophia Wiltshire, the only daughter of archduke Wiltshire and my classmate. I had often followed her in the past because she was highest in rank in the nobles ladies, and as a prideful person I was, I would never bear the company of a second best person.
So I had often supported her in her small tricks to insult lower noble class or acting like a bitch.
I used to think it would give power too. My family was always against my ways but I never listened.
That's why Isabella had this kind of behaviour towards , even Nickolas was looking at with disappointed eyes.
"I am not thinking about it Isabella, I just had a bad dream." i declared and they both looked at with pensive eyes.
"Really"
"Really"
While Nickolas's voice was full of happy surprise, Isabella sounded suspicious. I couldn't bla her, I had lied a few tis for my benefit in the past.
"Yes, i'll just rest for a while and then i will be okay," i added with a nod and Nickolas smiled.
"Alright then, I will send Beth with so snacks in your room, you can have them while you are taking rest." he added, ruffling my hair.
If it had been past, I would have jerked his hands, but right now, I only leaned towards his touch. He had no idea how much I had missed this touch.
He moved his hands and looked at strangely and shook his head, while Isabella just looked at from far away as if my sickness was infectious.
"Just take rest okay" said Nickolas at the end as he walked out, dragging the reluctant Isabella with her.
But then his steps halted at the door as he turned back and looked at .
"Abi, father is going to co back tonight, hope you would be fine and welco him with us" he said in a sowhat pleasing tone while Isabella just smirked.
Sure she was thinking that I would try to find excuses and deny. Whenever my father cos ho, I always try to avoid eting him as he always reprimands in front of my step mother and family.
This was not sothing new, as no matter what i did, he always looked at as if i was a sore thumb, though both and Nickolas are his children from his first wife, Nickolas was always treated nicely as he was the boy and the future heir of the dukedom, while i was nothing but a lady who would marry soon.
So i tried to find excuses to not be around him, but this ti i nodded, though how much angry had he been on in my life, i was the first one he decided to save when the calamity occurred, i wanted to see him and thank him for the love and care he had given . So, i nodded,
"Thank you, for reminding , Nick. I would be there on ti." i replied with a sweet smile and they both were taken aback.
"Is there any problem Nick?" I asked , feigning ignorance and he shook his head.
"No, not at all, since you are ready to co, there can not be any problem for now," he added as he left the room with a happy smile.
I walked to the door as i listened Bella complaining,
"What had happened to her, she was not at all behaving normally, since when had she beco so considerate. I am telling you this is her new trick. She must need sothing from father or you, that was the reason she is acting to behave nicely.'' Soon their voices were no more audible as they crossed the gallery, but I was sure Isabella must be complaining about further.
But since I was the reason for her death, I shall let the matter go, and try to find ways, ways to save my family and even fulfil the promise I had made to that strange girl.
Once they were out I closed the door and walked in, so I was back to being Abigail Essendson, the daughter of Duke George Essendson from Doctor Abigail Collins, who used to live in the 21st century.
Would anyone believe if I would tell them that I was killed here and then took birth in the 21st century and lived a happy life there, but with my past mories intact, and then I died by saving a strange girl who took pity and sent here to get the revenge of my first life.
My first life, I was chosen as a participant of the empress, the bride of crown prince, but instead of participating in that, I chose to marry Gerard, the archduke of the empire.
What a fool I was to think that Gerard loved , he was handso, charming, noble and he had that art to seduce. What we call a bad boy vibe in the modern world who was great at flirting and seducing young girls. Like a moth I was attracted to him.
My father transferred my share of properties and power to him so that he could grow up. But who would have known that he wanted to usurp the whole throne, he attacked the crown prince in one of his expeditions and killed him.
It would have taken it as a political move but the man did not stop here. He attacked my family too. My brother and father lost life in front of and I was rescued by Nickolas who took the attack to save .
