My Stubborn Mistress 390 Somewhere, Trapped In Time: The Firstborn?

Quinn and the others began making plans on how to hide Marivella tonight. They already have talked to Gen Isagawa about the plans, and he would gladly lean a hand for his captain.

Quinn was standing near the cliff and looking across the entire old Paris City. His eyes travel throughout, imprinting it into his mine.

From the dining room, Madison observes Quinn. Later on, she went out of the house to join him. "Papa?"

"Madison?"

"Are you thinking about her?" she asked.

Quinn glances over his shoulder before he replied to her. "I am missing her already. Yes, I am thinking about her, always."

"I am certain that you are, Papa. I am glad you are able to see her once again."

Quinn nodded. Madison walks closer and stood next to him, to not notice that Quinn could actually speak. Carlisle and Gen still at home.

"The Blue Moon..." he mumbles.

"Papa?" Madison cannot comprehend why he brought up this.

"Have you noticed it, Madison? Last night, there is a blue moon."

"Yes. I saw it too, but I thought it would be no significance to us while we are here in the past."

"It seems, this is an opportunity for us to do something. I began understanding this... it was because we already are the reincarnation of the past, meaning we are already chained up with the same path after the curse and the ritual." he pointed out and shared his thoughts. 

"Levi mentioned this to me of how Isabella earned her immortality, and how Carlisle and Marivella bind to eternity... no doubts, the Blue Moon and the Blood Moon have a huge significance for us."

"You are, Papa. Klein Williams's soul has become a wanderer, and so to capture him. Lady Isabella releases HwYoung's spirit to bring him back to the Spirit World to cleanse him as to reincarnate along with Carlisle in the Reset Life."

"You mean, it is me, the now?"

"That's how Ca.s.sie died in life that does not exist anymore."

"Come again?"

"Mama died in that book."

"But she's pregnant, is it?"

"Yes, I—"

"Carlene?"

"Marivella! Hi, do you need anything?"

"Um, I just wanted to ask you if you want to come with me? I am going home to check out my parents. It must worry them I suddenly disappear from the Gala," she expressed. "Can I borrowed her?" Marivella turned to Quinn to ask his permission.

Madison notices how Quinn and Marivella looked at each other. She began wondering as she's sensing that something is going on between them, but she cannot have the courage to ask.

Quinn glances at Madison then nodded at Marivella.

"All right! I'll prepare a meal before going home."

"Thank you, Marivella. I'll come sooner to help you." Madison retorted. "I will talk to— my brother about something."

They heard the horses whining then Carlisle and Gen riding away.

"Did something happen?"

"Hmm... I wonder, yes. Carlisle was summoned by the king."

"I see..."

"I'll head up to the kitchen."

"Okay, Marivella..." Madison nodded, watched Marivella walk toward the house. "What was that Papa?" she teases him after they were alone again.

"What?" he smirked, pretending he expressed nothing.

"I saw it! There is something going on. I sense it!"

"Not really." he's still planning to play.

"Papa?" she acted like moping which Quinn chuckles as a response.

Madison stared at him. It won't be surprising if Quinn would show affection toward Marivella. She would rather understand. But on the other hand, she's also admired Quinn's devotion to the one that reincarnates and him, to work for Carlisle and Marivella to be together, in the near future.

"Anyway, you were about to say something earlier. What is it?"

"I— about the books. I started realizing this, Papa. Why do I am reincarnated ahead of Marivella? But later, Ca.s.sandra got pregnant in that life. Alike to life, we came from, I was born earlier than her. It could be the reason is for me to work something for the two of you?"

Quinn looked at Madison. She had a point. They won't be able to travel time without her, and he won't discover something that Marivella got pregnant before Carlene. Yet, he cannot conclude whether to share this with Madison as he promised Marivella to hide this from everyone. At least for now, as she said. 

But this left him perplexed. If Marivella is pregnant now, why does Madison conceive during the Newfound Land expedition?

"Papa? Is something wrong?" She notices his silence. Madison could tell that something is bothering him lately.

"Madison... There is a first child."

"What?"

"She is pregnant."

"I don't get it, Papa." She's truly confused.

Levi who was approaching them hears a little of their conversation. "What did you discuss? Who's pregnant?"

Quinn repeated it again. This time, he says it clearly. "Marivella... She is pregnant."

"What!?" Levi and Madison exclaimed at once.

"How did you know, brother Quinn?"

Levi, who first recovered from the shock they felt with the news they heard.

"Last night, I was waiting outside the room where you and Marivella meet the Queen privately." Quinn peering at Madison, observing her reaction.

Thus, he went on. "I followed Marivella toward the garden when she left the room ahead of you. I found her throwing up on the corner of the pavilion. I approached her as I worry, then she pleaded at me not to tell anyone."

"I talked to her in a sign language if she's pregnant, and she conceded it."

Madison covered her mouth. Then there could be a possibility that she has a sibling that someone older than her? Or?

"But what happens to this child?" she asked.

"I don't know. Isn't the book mentioned about this?" he queried them who read the books.

"No. It mentions nothing but only the birth of Carlene after they escape from the Newfound Land battle. But that time, Carlisle married to Isabella."

"Then the book is not telling everything?"

"There are further things that happen here in the past, that we actually have no information about."

"Like this prince from Korea and Marivella got to engage with him."

"And I wanted to know what happened to this child. I mean, my sibling. Is he or she is even alive after here? Then where is she or he now?"

"Marivella will face execution when she will arrive in Korea as the prince's wife but found out later that she is pregnant by someone's child."

"This is the reason you suggested hiding her, brother Quinn?"

He nodded. "Also, if we can prevent Marivella from sailing to Korea, then the expedition to the Newfound Land will take place."

"But, papa?" she can't move on. Do her parents have a firstborn?

She's curious to know what happened before her parents get separated then meet again after a year or two. If Marivella got pregnant now, then she would lose the child?

Isn't that was painful?

"Mama, what will happen to you then?" she mumbles...
