Isolde really couldn't find a good match. Or rather, Geoffrey didn’t find a good match for Isolde.

Geoffrey listened to Xavier and found a marriage for Isolde.

The man, Lad Wood, was the son of his former subordinate. After his father’s death, Lad received bereavement

compensation from the Royal Court, Later, he entered the High Magistracy of Argentum and now worked as the

executioner.

His first nwas actually just a nickname. After his father died on the battlefield, Lad wasn’t named. His

grandmother gave him that nickname. He was the darling of the Wood family.

Lad’s mother remarried when he was five years old. Thus, he grew up with his grandmother.

His grandmother sold scones and bread on West Street. At first, it was just a small stall. Later, she bought a shop

and their incwas quite stable.

Geoffrey carefully selected from countless candidates, and finally chose Lad. Other than his family background,

Lad was a great candidate.

Lad’s family was simple as he only had one grandmother. When Isolde married him, her life would be quite

comfortable. This was the best Geoffrey could do for Isolde..

Therefore, Geoffrey invited Lad and his grandmother, Raine Wood, over as guests. It was also for Raine take a

look at Isolde.

Isolde knew Lad from her previous life. Or rather, she knew Raine first.

In her previous life, when Isolde was in the estate, she preferred plain food. She always brought Helena out to

look for food. The bread Raine made were delicious, and she could eat three at a time.

Raine and Isolde knew each other in their previous lives, so they naturally knew each other in this life. However,

Raine did not know that the girl who often cto her shop to eat was the Duke of Blackmoor’s daughter.

Lad had just turned 20 this year and had been an executioner for two years in High Magistracy of Argentum.

It was difficult to find a match for him too. After all, his family had sassets. If Lad wanted to marry a

daughter from a small family, he could do it at any time.

However, Raine had not found anyone suitable after searching for nearly two years.

Raine knew she was going to be a guest at the residence of a prospective candidate tonight but she ought

Geoffrey would match Lad with a maid.

Maids from large families were more sought after than daughters from small families. This was because most of

these maids were well-trained and knowledgeable. It was more than enough for them to manage a small

household.

Therefore, Raine cwith her grandson.

Raine was also considered a businesswoman. She was a smooth-talker, so she did not appear too timid when

she cto Duke's estate.

Chapter 72 The In-laws:

Matilda was originally grounded, but because it was Isolde’s marriage, no matter how much Geoffrey disliked

her, he had to call her out to greet the guests.

Pears

When Matilda heard that the prospective husband Geoffrey found for Isolde was actually an executioner, she was

so happy that tears welled up in her eyes. She dressed neatly and cout to receive Raine.

When she saw the burly and fierce-looking Lad, she felt even happier. She invited Raine and Lad to take a

seat first.

When Raine saw the luxuriously dressed Matilda, she curtsied. Then, she secretly glanced at the two maids

beside Matilda, thinking they were very pretty and was delighted.

“His lordship is in the study now. He'll be back soon.” Matilda smiled at Raine. Then, she kept sizing up Lad. Lad

is so thickset and his fist is huge. One punch would kill, right?

Moreover, being an executioner means he is likely violent. Who knows how much pain the little slut would suffer

after she marries him?

The more Matilda looked at Lad, the more satisfied she was.

Raine replied respectfully, “We can wait. We shouldn't have disturbed his lordship.”

She continued to size up the maids beside Matilda. The more she looked at them, the more satisfied she

was.

Matilda turned and instructed, “Tell Isolde to cand meet Mrs. Wood.”

When Raine heard this, she was so frightened that she hurriedly stood up. “There's no need.” How can Miss

Langley cout just to greet me? She is a County Princess!

Matilda smiled and said, “What do you mean by no need? After she marries Lad, you need to guide her.”

Raine was stunned. She had to have heard wrongly. Her hearing had been bad recently. She asked, “Madam, you

mean to say that you

intend to match Lad to Miss Langley’s maid?”

Matilda looked at Raine reproachfully. “What are you talking about? Didn't Geoffrey get someone to tell you?

You're here to talk about Isolde’s wedding to Lad.”

Raine almost fainted. She knew her family wasn’t worthy of marrying a County Princess. The difference in family

background was too great. They had nothing except a bakery. Surely it wasn’t because Lad was a great

executioner.

Raine clutched her chest and said with difficulty, “Ouch, Lad, help me. I'm afraid my illness is acting up. Send me

to a doctor, quickly.”

Raine knew she couldn't reject the marriage so she decided to go back and think of a way.

Matilda was stunned for a moment before she understood. It turned out that Raine and Lad didn’t know. She

stood up and reached out to support Raine. She hurriedly said, “Go get a doctor now.”

Matilda wouldn't let them leave so easily.

When Raine heard that, she nearly fainted for real.

Lad helped Raine sit down. He was not very bright and did not know that his grandmother was pretending. He

widened his eyes and asked, “Grandmother, what illness? Where is it? Why did you not tellbefore?”

Raine snorted and replied, “I'm afraid you'll be worried.” She looked at Matilda and said with a pained

expression, “Your ladyship, ler’s talk about the marriage tomorrow | feel really bad

“I know you're not feeling well, so | called a doctor. Just wait for a while, Matilda said gently, but remained

At this moment. Isolde cover with Helena. As soon as she entered, she walked toward Raine with a smile.

“Hey, why are you free to chere for a visit?”

Raine stared at Isolde with wide eyes. “It's you. Didn't you often frequent my shop?

“It’s me. I've been thinking about your bread. | haven't been free to drop by your shop for the past few days.

Isolde walked over. “What's wrong with you? Are you sick?”

Matilda hurriedly said, “Isolde, go on and greet Raine.”

Raine’s lips trembled. “You are the County Princess of Cromwell!”

“Yes,” Isolde asked, “By the way, did you chere for me?”

Raine shook her head vigorously. “No, I'm just here for a visit.”

Matilda laughed. “Look at how formal you two are. Raine, no need to beat around the bush. After all, we'll be in-

laws soon.”

Raine wiped the sweat off her forehead, her hands trembling

Isolde asked in surprise, “In-laws? How, Raine?”

Matilda looked at Isolde smugly. “Isolde, hurry up and greet-"

Isolde immediately stood up and interrupted Matilda. She curtsied to Raine and said, “Pleasure to meet you, Mrs.

Wood. | didn’t expect you'll be our in-law.”

Matilda smiled and said, “Our in-law? She's not only

that.

Isolde looked at Matilda. “If she’s not our in-law, who is she? However, actually, | don’t think you need to be so

anxious. Isn't Michelle not divorced yet? Why did you already find another marriage for her?”
