"Do they really think that killing me would somehow make them eligible to become the next grand Duke?
I don't even want the position in the first place."
Layla was the only child of the Eryrth grand ducal family.
As such, if anything were to happen to her and the grand duchess, Iberis was unable to have other children, then Conrad would be forced to take one of her cousins and make him the heir of the Grand Duchy.
Conrad naturally saw through these schemes they had but ignored them simply because they were his brother's children.
It was also because Layla was neither weak nor foolish enough to fall for their schemes, he trained her not to after all.
If they really became a threat to her then Conrad would eliminate them, regardless of whose son they were.
"It's getting really annoying now."
Layla spoke as she poured a cup of tea for herself.
