Bound by love: Marrying my Disabled Husband by Devocean

Chapter 1236

Chapter 1236:

Edward glanced at her, casting a doubtful look. “But a queen ruling as king... that’s unheard of in our history.”

Louise met his gaze with determination. “Then | shall be the one to set a new standard. | will be the first woman

to rule as queen in our history.”

She softened her tone, her gaze earnest. “Edward, once | am queen, | promise to honor you, allowing you to

marry the woman you cherish.”

Stunned, Edward fell into a heavy silence, then abruptly changed the course of their conversation. “Has Elyse

planted these thoughts in your mind? | need to speak with her. Why does she keep instilling such radical ideas in

you?”

Edward began to walk away, but Louise grabbed his arm, halting him.

“Elyse is right,” she declared firmly. “I deserve more than just being a pawn in Chesney's schemes for control.”

Then there was Garret, who preferred the safety of his chair to the risks of revealing their secret liaison. In the

end, she had been nothing more than a tool in the games of both Chesney and Garret.

Locking eyes with Edward, Louise's lips curled into a sly grin. “You suggest | go back to the meeting, but haven't

you felt a bit of bitterness yourself? After all, Chesney will probably want you to marry me, seeing as you're his

trusted man.”

Edward looked down. “If that’s his wish, I'll comply and promise to treat you right.”

Louise raised her eyebrows in astonishment. “Just like that? You surrender so easily? | thought you'd resist

more.”

Edward's laughter was hollow, filled with resignation. “Resist for what? There's no point. I've already accepted

that Elyse is out of reach. Fighting for the freedom to marry someone I truly love seems even more hopeless. So,

what is there left to fight for?”

Louise scoffed, her tone dripping with disdain. “Such grand words, yet you've never really tried. Don’t kid

yourself, Edward. We've known each other since childhood, and quitting has always been your specialty. You

claimed to have pursued Elyse with such fervor, but it’s clear your heart barely participated in the chase. Your

mind was elsewhere, tangled in distractions.”

Edward bristled and retorted sharply, “And what insight do you have into my heart's affairs?”

With a casual flick of her wrist, Louise dismissed his irritation. “Delving into the past isn’t why I'm here. My time

is just as precious. But mark my words—if you turn away from helpingnow, and I rise to power alone, be

prepared to find yourself bound in marriage to the very woman you loathe most.”

A grimace flickered across Edward's face, a mix of confusion and dismay. “Why unleash such venom? How have |

earned such scorn?”
