well i dont think she loves her husband too but ya
wait idt that's the option emperor man is giving her, is it? it's just become a countess yourself right
She is the duke daughter that means when she was born she was expected to marry the prince since ... duke is below the royal family
Since she was a daughter and end up marrying a duke her status did not rise
But if a emperor give her a "Title" (Another other than what she gain under her husband)
The emperor can make her to be his son wife because the title of a "DUCHESSES" Is revoke
Royalty
King
Prince
Princess
Duke/Duchess
Marquess/Marchioness.
Earl/Countess.
The emperor is giving her a title of "Marquess"
When he said countess is already enough.
Hope it make sense
She is not an ambitious woman who will leave her husband to be a wife of someone she doesn't love
ლ(´ڡ`ლ)
Lol if the emperor said it's for the "equilibrium" of both family .... that ain't right, he just want to put the higher point to the Royal family but it won't changed the fact that Elle will be a great spiritualist born from that both family
