Another problem Georgine faces is her daughter. The moment Letizia becomes the archduchess, Detlinde will be on the chopping block and as her mother, Georgine along with her by association. If she becomes the Aub Ehrenfest, while Detlinde remains behind in Ahrensbach, that would probably put enough distance between them and make Georgine too indispensible to execute. If she remains in Ahrensbach after destroying Ehrenfest however, I think her life is on a timer.
I suppose she could try to make Detlinde the permanent Aub, but that would mean defying a royal decree... and I don't think anyone, Georgine included, would want Detlinde as an Aub, especially now that Leonzio seems to have wrested her away from the tenuous control Georgine had her under.
As an archduke family member, Georgine also can't become a Sovereign noble, until after Letizia is made the full Aub, so she couldn't escape guilt by association that way either, unless the royals delay Detlinde's execution long enough for Georgine to work something out for herself, which I find highly unlikely.
