No Substitute Can Replace Her Place in My HeartChapter 1 Enter the Palace
After serving as a maid for many years, I was unexpectedly taken to the palace by King Edward Rothschild.
Only then did I realize that he had been obsessed with me for a long time and had kept numerous women who bore a resemblance to me in some way.
When the women saw me, they warmly greeted me.
One of the women exclaimed, "My eyes resemble those of His Majesty's unforgettable lover."
Another added, "My eyebrows resemble hers."
"In what way do you resemble His Majesty's memorable lover?" a woman asked me.
Facing the different looks from the girls, I maintained a calm smile, held my head high, and declared confidently, "I am the true memorable lover."
Before I met Edward outside the palace, I was bought by a man to be a maid.
Not only did he make me work to the bone day, but he also heartlessly gambled away the private money I had struggled to save.
That day, I found that my money was gone, and I, who had always been tolerant, pounced on him and fought with him.
He slapped me and wanted to sell me to a human trafficker.
Initially, I resisted boarding the carriage, so the traffickers resorted to tying my hands and dragging me behind the carriage.
I was rubbed against the ground, my skin tearing and the pain becoming unbearable. However, I remained resolute, refusing to shed a single tear.
As the carriage continued its journey, I suddenly heard the sound of someone in hot pursuit from behind.
"Who the hell is getting in my way!" the coachman cursed.
A man who sounded like a guard shouted, "I'm acting on my master's orders. How dare you defy him!"
With a scream, the human trafficker was whipped out of the carriage.
Master? Who was it?
My body felt like it was about to split apart with pain, and I felt someone quickly come over and pick me up.
He called out in an anxious tone, "Matilda, I'm late.
"Do you still recognize me? I'm Edward Rothschild."
The King's name was indeed Edward Rothschild, and I could confirm his identity by his attire.
Edward brought me back to the palace. More precisely, he carried me in his arms and organized a grand ceremony to welcome my arrival.
The extravagant event garnered significant attention and was met with great fanfare.
The residence he intended for me to stay in was the most opulent house I had ever seen in my entire life.
