CHAPTER 14

"What about the Arch Duke?"

After the war, Gabby founded her own Kingdom with the help of Sebastian and several nobles. Gabby gives Sebastian the title of Arch Duke for sending soldiers to help during the war even though all the soldiers sent are not moving because Gabby quickly repulses all the enemies.

"I am too old for that, My Lady. How about Leon, my grandson? Isn't he following you on the front lines?" Sebastian replied.

Gabby invites Sebastian to thank him and offers him a high degree, but Sebastian refuses to cite his advanced age. She was a little uncomfortable with Sebastian.

"I haven't seen him for a week, and I want to say thank you for helping me," Gabby said, smiling at Sebastian.

Sebastian, who saw Gabby's smile, accidentally burst into tears in front of Gabby. "Are you okay?" asked Gabby, who saw Sebastian in tears.

"I'm fine, My Lady. It's just that you remind me of my granddaughter, and maybe she's your age now." Sebastian said, looking sadly at Gabby.

"If you miss your granddaughter, shouldn't you just come over to Duke Charlotte's residence? Your granddaughter is Lady Charlotte, right?"

Sebastian can only smile faintly.

Hearing Gabby's words, maybe this girl doesn't know Gabriella. The even Spinx Kingdom knows Sebastian's granddaughter, the least favoured among the Nobles. Currently, Mia is known as Lady Charlotte.

"I have 2 granddaughters, Mia has an older sister, but she disappeared 4 years ago," Sebastian said quietly, but Gabby heard him.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make you sad," said Gabby apologetically while holding Sebastian's hand gently. Sebastian just smiled gently at the girl in front of him.

"It's all right, My Lady."

"Okay, Mr Sebastian, then in a week, I will celebrate the victory and the founding of the new kingdom. I invite you to my banquet in 3 days, and I ask Master to convey my message to Mr Leon to come to my new royal banquet. If you will, I would like to invite the Charlotte family considering that lord Leon is Duke David's second son." said Gabby at length.

"Very well, I will pass on your message, and I will bring my family for your banquet."

Now the western part of the Spinx kingdom, which is still in the territory of the Spinx Kingdom, is in alliance with the Gabby kingdom. The Spinx Kingdom was unable to turn the western territories controlled by Sebastian into rebels. On the contrary, it will benefit the Spinx Kingdom. Even though the Kingdom that Gabby founded is only in alliance with Sebastian, indirectly, Gabby has an alliance with the Spinx Kingdom because Sebastian's territory is still the Territory of the Spinx Kingdom.

After a few days of fixing the city of Dekhel as the capital of the Queenby Kingdom, it still needs some improvement regarding the other small towns. Assisted by Shushu and Scarla and several nobles, several nobles tried to curry favour with Gabby. Still, they had not yet had time to do their actions, and they had caught them, making the nobles lose their confidence which was originally arrogance.

Gabby also did not randomly appoint members of her cabinet, and several young nobles were selected from personalities Baba himself directly selected.

Gabby also did not forget to give titles to her three loyal servants to gain authority for the Kingdom, and Gabby was unmitigated to give the 5 highest titles.

Baba was given the title of Grand Duke, Shushu and Scarla were given the title of Grand Duchess. However, Shushu didn't care about peerage, Leon Gordan Charlotte was given the title of Arch Duke, and a man who was in disguise in the Folly Kingdom was also given the title of Arch Duke.

---

Sebastian gathers the Charlotte family in the family room to inform them that the Charlotte family has received an invitation to come to the Queenby royal banquet. Sebastian also informs Leon that Gabby gave Leon the title of Arch Duke to him, surprising all of them, the Charlotte family.

"Why is it Leon who got that title? He's just a kid." Evan said, displeased that Leon got such a high degree.

"What do you mean, Evan? Leon getting the title of Arch Duke was a direct order from Queen Gabby because he helped Queen Gabby during the war, unlike you, who defended robbers. Fortunately, the Charlotte family was not included in Queen Gabby's black list, considering that you were on the side of the Spinx kingdom." Sebastian sneered at length.

Leon just kept quiet and didn't care about Evan's disapproval. Even though Evan was Leon's older brother, he still had a deep hatred for Evan because he was the one who made Gabriella disappear and was never found.

"So we were invited to Lady Gabby's kingdom, grandpa?" Mia asked openly to mediate Evan and Sebastian's argument.

"That's right, Mia, and remember, from now on, you have to call her the Queen. Now she is the leader of the kingdom."

"Okay, grandpa"

"By the way, Mia, are you close to Queen Gabby?" Sebastian asked curiously.

"No, Grandpa, Mia has only seen him once at Prince Gustav's wedding," Mia answered confusedly. "Why, grandpa?" continued Mia.

"Oh, it's okay."

Sebastian is confused by Queen Gabby, who also invites Mia to her banquet as if Gabby is close to Mia, whether Sebastian's feelings that he has been feeling are true that Gabby is his granddaughter. But Sebastian couldn't prove it once Sebastian tried to find out information about Gabby but to no avail.

"And for you, I hope can maintain your attitude, especially for you, Evan, don't act," Sebastian said, looking at David and Evan.

"Yeah, Grandpa, you don't have to worry.

by the way, how about the Spinx Kingdom?"

"I don't know, but Queen Gabby invited King Watson but considering the King is sick, maybe the Crown Prince will come."

"Prince Emilio has already given Gustav the title of the crown prince. If Gustav comes to the banquet, I'm afraid he will cause trouble," said Evan.

"He's your best friend, and you take care of him. I want to know how you and your best friend worked together to humiliate Gabriella." Eliana pouted, which had been silent for a long time.

Eliana knows that Gabriella left because she was humiliated by Evan and Gustav at her birthday party. Eliana never said hello to Evan and David. Sometimes, Eliana and they even argue, making David almost lose his mind. David is lucky to have Mia because Mia's gentle demeanour can calm Eliana's every anger.

"It's disgusting to have a cowardly child like you. Luckily I gave birth to Leon because he has helped Lady Gabby. Our family is still saved." said Eliana insulting Evan.

"What do you mean by saying that?" Evan began to be displeased with Eliana's words and raised his voice.

"Enough, Evan, Eliana!" David snapped at Evan and Eliana.

"Mia, take your mother to the room to rest," Sebastian said, leading the voice.

Sebastian is very sorry to see his daughter-in-law. Since the loss of Gabriella, Eliana has become very depressed and easily emotional.
