The Charismatic Charlie Wade – Chapter 6231

For Helena, stepping down from her position seemed easy, but for the Nordic royal family, her abdication would signify the end of the royal line.

With the throne now in her hands, there would be no one left to succeed her. If she were to insist on abdicating without an heir, the outcome would be dire: either the royal family would cease to exist, or they would have to find a king from another European constitutional monarchy.

Such scenarios were not uncommon before World War II, when European royal families were often interconnected. If there were no male heirs within a family, it was not unusual for a suitable young man from another family to inherit the throne.

However, in today’s world, those connections have significantly weakened. The national identities of the various European countries are no longer as unified as they once were, and there is a generally skeptical view towards foreign royalty. As a result, it would be challenging for the populace to accept a royal from another country as their king. This line of thought reminded Helena of her grandmother's recurring advice. It wasn't merely that she had to marry Charlie; the imperative was to produce an heir.

She sighed internally.
