Chapter 84

The reason he was angry was completely different from what she had expected.

“You said such reckless things?”

“Karl, are you… are you angry about that right now? Because you’re afraid Danae will steal our fortune?”

“Then what else should I be angry about right now?”

Karl looked at Sandra as if she were a complete stranger he couldn’t understand.

“That’s not all. How could you say such insulting things to Danae?”

“Karl!”

“How could you spread such vulgar rumors? Even if others gossip like that, you shouldn’t.”

“But it’s real!”

“What?”

“It’s real! I saw it! I saw it clearly with these two eyes!”

Of course, it wasn’t she who saw it but Alice—but her daughter wouldn’t lie, would she?

“That can’t be. You must have seen wrong.”

Karl spoke calmly with a face that showed no belief at all.

“Even if it’s true that they went into the room together, so what? They must have had something to discuss.”

“At night, in a room, what could there be to talk about?!”

“Don’t slander her.”

“They even drew the curtains! If they were just having a conversation, there would be no need for that!”

“Stop it.”

“Ha! With that noble face, being praised as a saint—”

“Stop it, Sandra.”

Ah!

Sandra was startled. She caught a glimpse of contempt in Karl’s eyes as they met hers. He smiled coldly like ice and warned her.

“Stop it now. Sandra Windsor.”

Sandra gasped in shock.

Did he just look at me with contempt?

How could he look at me with such eyes?

“Don’t ever say such things again. They’re nothing but ridiculous rumors.”

After a moment, Karl stepped back, holding his head. He seemed extremely tired.

“And Ignis and Danae can never marry. Even if Viego allows it, I’ll oppose it.”

“….”

“So don’t go around saying you agree to their marriage. As long as I’m alive, I’ll never allow it.”

“….”

“Even if Danae wants it… even if Danae says she’ll marry Ignis, it’s not happening. Do you know how rotten that bastard Ignis is? Do you know how filthy his habits with women are? He’s incomparable to Danae. He’s definitely approaching her for her body or money.”

Karl muttered with a tired face.

“I’d rather kill Ignis. Absolutely never…”

Sandra stared at her husband in complete bewilderment.

‘What about you?’

You’re exactly the same.

You’re also after Danae’s money.

You’re the same.

No, you’re even more despicable.

* * *

“Oh, you’re here.”

“….”

Opening the door, she saw the room had become a mess again.

Another broken mirror. Flower vase. Torn curtains. Scattered furniture.

‘….’

Vulgar curses echoed in her head.

Anger boiled up.

‘Why the hell is he doing this in my room?’

Is he really a bastard?

“What are you doing right now?”

“Ah, sorry. I dirtied the bed again.”

Ignis was lying on Dana’s bed, rolling around again.

“What the hell are you doing in my room?”

“What am I doing? Taking naps. Smoking cigarettes. Having hobbies since I’m bored.”

Ignis grinned smugly as he said this.

“But do you know what my hobby is?”

Let’s not talk about it.

“Didn’t you tell Viego about the marriage?”

“Yeah. I thought I showed you the marriage proposal letter?”

Ignis let out a giggling laugh.

“I did that to tease you. You fell for it. Like an idiot.”

“….”

“Your expression in the conference room was worth seeing.”

What was so funny? Ignis burst into laughter, holding his stomach.

“So, what will you do? Will you marry me?”

“It hasn’t been a week yet.”

Of course, if she wanted to, she could reveal it was a fake scripture right now, but she planned to torment Viego a little more.

When that sensitive man withers away from stress, she should extend a helping hand.

“But I’m impatient by nature.”

Ignis half-raised his body from the bed and looked Dana up and down. He examined her from head to toe, then smiled with satisfaction.

“You know what? I dreamed about you yesterday.”

“I’m not curious.”

“Don’t be prickly. You’re going to marry me anyway.”

Ignis spoke with utmost insolence and lay back down on the bed. Then he patted the spot next to him.

“Come here.”

“….”

“I’ll tell you what dream I had. Baby.”

Really, he was the epitome of vulgarity, debauchery, and baseness. The nickname “scoundrel” truly suited this man.

“But do you know something?”

However, anyway.

Dana disliked Ignis, but he wasn’t entirely useless.

Thanks to him, she had cornered Viego. He had given her the opportunity to become Viego’s savior.

“I’m still the Crown Prince’s fiancée.”

Perhaps she could expect another role from him?

“I’ve requested to break off the engagement several times, but it’s been ignored every time.”

“Really?”

As if those words were unexpected, Ignis’s eyes darkened.

“I heard the Crown Prince is completely obsessed with Alice Windsor.”

“That’s right.”

Dana smiled bitterly. The fact that Lyos was completely smitten with Alice was undeniably true.

How much he cares for Alice—didn’t he even arrange for her to spend time with his own friends?

Not long ago, when I went to the hunting grounds to confront Lyos. That’s when I saw Alice conversing with Lyos’s friends.

It was a scene I could never have dreamed of.

‘Since he’s showing her consideration he never showed me, he must love her that much.’

But he won’t break off our engagement.

The reason is simple.

It’s the same reason Juan approached me, the same reason Ignis proposed to me, and the same reason Karl tried to kill me.

‘These disgusting men.’

Because of my wealth.

Because they’re after my fortune, my vault.

“So why don’t you try talking to him, Lord Ignis.”

“…Me?”

Ignis seemed somewhat reluctant.

I thought he was a reckless fool who feared nothing, but apparently he’s not completely stupid since he knows to fear the Crown Prince. That was amusing.

“Why? Are you scared?”

“…”

Dana wore a thick sneer.

Men like him are always weak to this kind of provocation. Touch their masculinity and they’ll lose their temper and their reason.

“Is Crown Prince so frightening to you?”

Sure enough, fire flashed in Ignis’s eyes. He glared at Dana fiercely, then.

“Yeah.”

“…”

“What man isn’t afraid of Lyos Grants?”

I expected him to bluster out of pride, but he was surprisingly quick to admit it.

“Well, but… I suppose. Right now he’s definitely smitten with Alice Windsor, not you.”

Ignis looked up at the ceiling, turning things over in his mind.

“I could probably manage some negotiation.”

“…”
