so, until the last chapter from the novel before the side stories, they still didn't have child. the people from the empires amazed by the ducal couple but they felt sorry for Chloe and Alphonse because the lack of a child. The imperials used to think that it was a sin for a woman to have no child but Chloe didn't think so. Chloe also want to have child but she thought what can she do? Regardless of her efforts, she is not going to have any regret about what she didn't get. basically, no one dared to blame her because Alphonse already said that he loved the duchess publicly. until...
she diagnosed 4 weeks pregnant (yeayyy ~^^)
all people happy for her and congratulated her. (they all love Chloe ^^) even her friend Miss Fortnum cried from happiness because Chloe's pregnancy.

The truth is that MC doesn't remember well the original plot of the novel.
In the original plot, Ishid is not the main lead, the real male lead is Michael.
Ishid was in love with Yunipe and Rael was in love Yunipe too, to the point of them being obsessed. So because any of them wanted the other to be with Yunipe, they started going out.
Ishid loved Yunipe and didn't want Rael be near her. The same goes with Rael, she loved Yunipe and didn't want Ishid to go near her. So the solution? Going out.
Of course, the problem was that Yunipe was in love with Ishid, so when the two of them started to going out, she felt jelaous. This triggers her to start treating Rael bad, and because she started treating Rael bad, Cassian who really loved Rael but treated her bad, killed Yunipe so she won't hurt Rael anymore and she can be happy.
The obsession of Ishid and Rael with Yunipe caused her death because they two of them couldn't think of a better solution and well, the jealousy of Yunipe started a red flag with Cassian, who killed her.
in the present time line, because MC didn't become friendly with Rael in her academic days, this changed the plot and she started going out with Ishid. And Rael started going out with Michael, who is the original ML.
Ishid and Rael are still obsessed with MC, but because MC started going out with Ishid before she became friendly with Rael, there is not reason for Rael and Ishid to going out so the other can't be near Yunipe. Personally I think Rael is bi or even lesbian?

And also, there'd be time when Chloe had to travel on her own. Thus leaving Alphonse all by himself (I mean not really alone), her leave affects him so much to the point that he couldn't bring himself to focus on his work. He keeps on thinking about her and kinda feel sad when he visits her room but he didn't see her anywhere. :( So in the end, he stayed there cuz at least the room still smells like her and it calms him. xD By the time she's back, she's actually a day early than expected so he didn't prepare anything to welcome her at all. So she just kinda shows up in his office, smiling and all... While Alphonse stared at her wide eyed, but once he finally could bring himself together, he stands up, throwing his cigarette on his finger (it fell on the floor lmao), and walks closer to her. Mind you she's still standing near the door in that room but he corners her to the wall (yes a kabedon), hugging each other before they made out for quite sometime. LOL. In a daze, she asked him if the time for dinner is still far, and he said yes, before finally understood what's the underlying meaning to her words. In the end he ended up carrying her to their room, (I skipped some things through) they didn't come out until way past dinner time cuz she's hungry. xD The novel is a bit wilder imo.
