Chapter 96
The Marchioness of Schertzan was the one who introduced Empress Teresia to her lover. Teresia had enjoyed splendid nightlife with the numerous men she met through the Marchioness. After partying and switching partners on a daily basis, at some point, she eventually settled down with a nobleman of relatively humble social status.
He was not the most attractive man ever and was certainly not the most sophisticated person, perhaps due to his upbringing in the countryside. Nevertheless, Teresia had completely fallen for his kind personality. It felt like he was special because he wasn’t pretentious like the other noblemen. Teresia turned the innocent man into her lover and offered him wealth and authority.
Perhaps it was love. Teresia had genuinely fallen for the man and with her support, he was able to transform himself into a decent aristocrat. It was a satisfying relationship for the both of them as the Empress received love and he gained power and riches.
