The Vanished Duchess Manhua
Amidst the luxurious grandeur of the Quintrell mansion, Lady Robin and Patrick stood facing the formidable figure of Percival De Quintrell. His piercing gaze bore into them, filled with a mix of arrogance and malice.
"I see you have returned, Mable," he sneered, his voice dripping with disdain. "But as what? A mere commoner seeking refuge in my domain?"
Lady Robin stood tall, the weight of her past heavy on her shoulders. "I am no longer the Duchess Quintrell," she declared, her voice steady despite the fear gnawing at her heart. "I am Lady Robin, and I have come to claim what is rightfully mine."
Patrick, standing by her side, felt a surge of courage at her words. Despite his young age, he understood the significance of this moment, the clash of wills between his mother and the tyrant who had cast a long shadow over their lives.
Percival's eyes narrowed, a cruel smirk playing on his lips. "You dare challenge me, after all I have done?" he scoffed. "You are nothing but a weak woman and a boy with no power."
But Lady Robin's eyes blazed with a fire that caught him off guard. "We may not have your wealth or influence," she retorted, her voice filled with quiet strength, "but we have something you will never understand - love and the bonds that hold us together."
With those words, Lady Robin and Patrick turned to leave the mansion, leaving Percival simmering with rage and frustration. As they walked away, a sense of liberation washed over them, the beginning of a new chapter filled with hope and the promise of a brighter future. And in that moment, they knew that no matter what challenges lay ahead, they would face them together, a family forged not by blood, but by courage and the unbreakable ties of the heart.
