I Become The Wife of The Male Lead -
Chapter 133 - 132
A few days later, I was processing the invitations addressed to me as usual.
"Oh, this drink is delicious."
I took a sip of the drink Livya gave me.
Livya smiled contentedly seeing my reaction.
"Still, the alcohol is suprisingly strong, so drink it slowly."
I glanced at Livya. She was pretty today as well, and she gave off the scent of a luxurious perfume that was in fashion these days.
I sighed silently. It was truly a great pity to her enemy if she was in the princess side.
"What can I do for you?"
Livya's voice turned sharp as there was someone approaching us.
I also turned my head.
"…"
It was a guy who I'd never seen before. He was a man with a slender build in a black suit. His fox smile gave off people the feeling of 'intimacy'.
I didn't know this guy, but Livya seemed familiar with that face. The hostility that appeared on her face was rather sharp.
"Oh my, I apologize to disturb you, ladies."
"Apologize accepted, then you could leave, Count Bill Curtis."
Bill Curtis? I frowned. It was familiar name. It was the sender of the strange love letter.
Despite Livya's cold reaction, the man still has a smile on his face.
"I'm sorry, but I have a matter to discuss with you companion, Lady Priscilla."
"What is it?"
"It's an honor to meet you, Lady Fiona Heilon. Please call me by my name."
I blew my nose at that cheap trick.
"I don't think that's going to happen. As far as I remember, this is the first time I've met you. Right, what is it?"
"Have you received my letter sometimes ago?"
"Yes I got it. But I think my respond has been clear enough."
By not replying at all.
"Could you spare me a moment of your precious time?"
Why was this guy suddenly interested in seeing me? This was annoying. I think I could understand why Livya didn't like this guy very much, because now I found him very unpleasant.
I wanted to know what matter this guy had, but I felt sorry for Livya as it would a bother for her.
"Okay, but only for a moment."
It was not a good thing for a noble lady to be alone with a man she didn't know well and who had a crush on her. However, because it was me who was the noble lady, I could make an exception since I had the power to suppress the bad things that could possibly happen. If he was going to do something sinister, I could just grill him a whole…
Wait, wasn't that too much? Gosh, I felt like my mind was getting a little radical as the days went by.
Bill Curtis and I arrived at the terrace.
"It seemed like you don't understand. So, I'd tell you in advance, Count Curtis. Not replying itself was a refusal."
"I know."
You knew that yet why did you call me, you bastard?
"But I still want to have just one intimate talk."
I crossed my arms. Hopefully, that intimate matter won't test my patience.
"Sure, what is it?"
Bill Curtis grinned.
"I know Lady Fiona very well."
"…"
I almost flinched as if something was poking me. But I answered sarcastically with my calm face.
"What? The fact that I am an illegitimate child? Oh lord, there are many people who talk about that as my weakness."
He paid no attention to my hard attitude.
"No, not that kind."
Anyway, I can't be bothered by these words.
I asked irritably. "Then what do you know?"
Bill Curtis smiled and held out his hand.
"If you come with me, I will let you know."
What the fuck.
"My lady, I've already written it in the letter. If we are together, we could do everything in this world. Please, make a wise choice."
This guy was the type of a person who could not be swept away just once move.
I could see why Livya was so hostile.
"I don't need it, and I don't care. I'm going, Count."
Bill Curtis let out an exaggerated sigh.
"It's a pity. Then please accept this."
He pulled out a black envelope from his chest.
"If it's a letter, I don't need it—"
I wanted to return to the hall quickly, so I took the invitation letter and turned around.
Then I heard Bill's voice behind my back.
"My lady, please think about it. At least, I'll be worth a lot more than His Highness if I'm the one who is on your side."
"…"
So now, he dared to talk about the value of Sigren?
I turned around. "Hearing what you've said changed my mind."
Bill's face lit up. "Did you decide to go with me?"
"No."
I smiled.
shriek—
I tore the invitation I was holding in half.
For the first time, a look of bewilderment appeared on Bill's relaxed expression. I guessed he didn't expect I would react like this.
I dropped the torn invitation to the floor and smashed it with my heel. Then I smiled a rather arrogant smile that Abel often did.
"This is my answer."
I gave a cold warning. "If you ever again try talking about the value of the prince one more time, I won't let it go."
"…"
I turned around without looking back.
Tak— Tak—
The sound of my high heels as I stepped forward in anger resonated clearly in the hallway.
