Chapter 81

“….”

Ignis hesitated for a moment, then obediently lowered his legs as if it was no big deal.

Then he began speaking on his own accord.

“I don’t understand why Danae Windsor is here.”

“….”

“A woman attending a meeting? Isn’t there a saying that when a woman shows her face in a meeting hall, the family business fails, and when a woman boards a ship, misfortune follows?”

“And so?”

“This situation makes me very uncomfortable. In that sense, I think Danae Windsor should be married off quickly.”

“Is that so.”

Viego nodded with a serious expression.

“Then I recommend you leave.”

“….”

Veins bulged on Ignis’s forehead. He seemed angry at an opponent who wouldn’t be provoked as he expected.

So finally, Ignis honestly brought up his main point.

“I want to build a stable life.”

Then he spouted nonsense that no one would believe.

“So I’d like to discuss a major life decision. How about it? Shall we discuss this matter?”

“….”

Meanwhile, Dana’s face turned pale.

‘What on earth is he thinking?’

That man came all the way here to pull this kind of stunt? Was he this crazy of a person?

‘Ah, right. He was exactly that crazy.’

Considering the chaos he caused before leaving Windsor, I should have expected this much!

“A major life decision? What do you mean?”

No. Don’t say it, you crazy bastard.

“You’ll understand if you see this.”

Ignis de Windsor smiled wickedly as he pulled out a letter from his chest. It was the rejection letter Dana had sent this morning.

“Please take a look, head of the family.”

No, don’t give it to him!

But the servant took the letter and delivered it to Viego.

‘Don’t read it….’

However, Viego unfolded the letter and checked it.

“….”

Three seconds later, he folded the letter again with an expressionless face.

“Let’s end the meeting here.”

Then he gestured to Ignis.

“Follow me.”

With those words, Viego stood up and left the meeting hall.

Fortunately or unfortunately, he didn’t give Dana a single glance in the process.

Dana realized.

‘Ignis is going to tell him.’

That he wants to marry her. That in exchange, he’ll dispose of the Scripture.

Ignis intended to negotiate with Viego.

Viego would… probably accept Ignis’s request. He would try to prevent the Scripture from leaking out, even if it meant somehow inducing a broken engagement with the Crown Prince.

Whether the Scripture was real or fake didn’t matter to Viego.

The possibility that Windsor’s honor could be damaged.

That would be the most important issue to him.

‘No.’

Everything went dark before her eyes. Dana clenched her fists tightly.

‘Marry someone like Ignis?’

After how far I’ve come.

I’m almost there. The deputy head position is within reach. If I extract the Sacred Relic, I can return to my world.

‘I really want to go home now.’

I hate everyone around me, and now I truly miss Yeon Dana’s life.

Dana repeatedly clenched and unclenched her fists. Someone was trying to overturn a nearly prepared feast. She felt anxious and angry.

‘Ignis de Windsor. If you interfere with me to the very end….’

I’ll make sure your head gets cut off for blasphemy.

That night.

“Danae Windsor.”

Mmm. Dana tossed and turned.

“Wake up.”

Is this a dream? Dana thought unconsciously. The voice sounds really nice.

“Wake up.”

A low whisper.

“Danae Windsor.”

Like dawn moonlight….

“Dana.”

Huh?

The next moment, Dana’s eyes snapped open. And she almost screamed.

Viego was standing in front of the bed, looking down at her!

“Oh—”

As she tried to call out to him in surprise, his large hand covered her mouth. As if telling her to be quiet, he brought his index finger to his lips.

“Be quiet.”

Dana swallowed and nodded.

“Follow me to my bedroom.”

Her heart suddenly dropped.

‘Don’t tell me he’s going to make me marry Ignis?’

What I feared has come!

Meanwhile, Alice had successfully entered the Windsor Estate.

“My goodness, Alice! How did you get here?”

“Miona helped me, Mother!”

Sandra seemed very surprised when Alice came, but she willingly hid her daughter.

“It would be terrible if Karl and Viego found out. You must be careful not to get caught.”

“Yes, Mother.”

Sandra immediately had a maid bring a maid outfit and wig. So Alice wouldn’t be discovered by others.

“Alice. I’ll find you an estate to stay in for a while, so until then, behave yourself. Understood?”

“Yes!”

Alice obediently listened to her mother at first.

She obediently took naps only in her mother’s room, obediently ate snacks, and obediently read novels.

“Hehe. I feel like I’m alive again.”

She lay on the bed, rolling around while eating fruit.

After finishing reading a romance novel that depicted a five-way relationship, she was now getting tired of just staying in her room.

‘The novel is so interesting, but what about me.’

The female protagonist in the novel was an oracle woman who had the special qualities befitting a main character.

Not only that. The female protagonist receives love from all the men around her. The arrogant Crown Prince and the iron-blooded duke, a wonderful knight, and even a forbidden romance that crosses dangerous lines.

‘How enviable.’

But her own reality was endlessly boring. Tedious and dull, like a stagnant lake where no ripples form.

A life like an extra who isn’t mentioned even once in a novel.

Thinking this way, Alice became infinitely miserable.

‘So frustrating…’

Alice glanced at her mother. Her mother was in a deep sleep.

In that case…

‘It should be fine to walk around the corridor at night, right?’

With that thought, Alice left her room in the very dim early dawn, when even the employees would be asleep.

‘I want to see the Crown Prince. Doesn’t His Highness want to see me?’

While taking a walk to soothe her melancholy feelings.

Alice discovered something quite by chance.

The side of the building visible beyond the window. She could see the door to Dana’s bedroom…

‘Huh? Why are two people coming out of the bedroom?’

The door opened at an angle.

Then a man came out.

Platinum hair. Tall height. Pale complexion. Beautiful face. That man is…

‘Viego Windsor?’

In an instant, a lightning-like shock struck down on her head.

At this hour, why is Viego Windsor coming out of Dana’s bedroom? And so secretly at that?

Moreover, he was dressed in a nightgown robe!
