The Earl’s Bad Wife

Episode XVIII: Bad Wife Facing the Storm

After the declaration of rejection, the air on the ground becomes even more dangerous.

We've been staring at each other for a while.

You don't think it's obvious, His Highness Augusto is launching a pre-emptive attack.

"…… a busy woman. I don't care."

"I'll turn a woman into a man and return the same words."

"What is it!?

'Cause I don't think it's an adult thing to talk about someone else's marriage.

"What you're doing is just what a wasting child does"

"No! I'm for Erich"

"Does my husband want that?

If that's the case, we have to have a discussion.

However, my husband said that he was in love with His Royal Highness, so he seems to enjoy marrying me quite a bit.

His Royal Highness looked remorseful because he didn't have the words to return them.

I rise to finish my barren time early.

"- Not at all."

Though he wanted to treat all the guests who came to this house, he thought that he was not worthy of doing so.

Therefore, I shall ask you to return as soon as possible.

"The next time you come, I hear you tease me to discuss it with my husband a lot. If he wants to be separated, I will consider it."

His Highness, sitting on the bench, urged him to show the exit by hand and return.

But he will not move, staring at me.

I asked him if he would even eat the meal that our proud cook would make, but he didn't respond.

"If you want to wait for my husband to return, be my guest. I'm busy, so please excuse me."

I thought I couldn't go out with you any longer, and if I tried to get out of the room, I could see His Highness approaching after the rest.

I felt like they were going to take my arm, so I look back and avoid it.

His Royal Highness looked at me with a great face full of anger.

"…… What is it?

"It's final notice. Release Erich!

"Well."

It's like I'm the bad guy. There's so much rudeness.

But coincidentally, I remember the emotion.

- Your Highness, your husband is married and you miss him.

"What are you talking about!?

There was also a time when I could not wholeheartedly congratulate my sisters on their marriage.

I remember telling my brother-in-law not to take my sister.

It was very hard for those who had been by my side to get married and go away.

Your Highness too, my husband seems to be going far away and I guess he is in pain of loneliness every day.

"Over time, you'll be accepted."

"No! That's not true. You have the roots of all evil!

- No, this guy.

Even though I thought about His Highness's feelings, understood and tried to walk away, they gave me every possible denial.

No matter how much you talk, my words will not echo in your chest.

"Now Erich is falling off and can't watch, so just like you pull yourself off -"

Like blocking words, bread! and a dry sound rings in the room.

I was slapping His Highness on the cheek as much as I could.

His Royal Highness just opened his eyes and kept his cheeks down, saying he couldn't believe it.

It sounded so good, it makes me smile.

Though violence shouldn't be, many of the words he says are tantamount to brutality. So I retaliated.

"Ko, this, the werewolf!

"We will give you back the same words!

This one really doesn't know anything.

My husband's hard work, his desire to protect His Highness's honor, his heart to do all he can. He accepted all of those efforts as normal.

I guess he doesn't even know how hard he was behind it or how heartbroken he was by bad rumors he can't remember.

"Your Highness doesn't understand one thing about her husband."

"No! I'm the best understander!

"That's what I call thoughtfulness"

Hearing my words makes my expression even more rude.

I say whatever I want, so I thought I'd get slapped on this one, but His Highness's hand remained squeezed tight all the time, and I just shuddered when I blew it.

I will try to speak in as gentle a voice as possible so as not to irritate His Royal Highness who is rough.

"My husband stopped talking about his job because he recognized His Highness as a servant."

"Eh?"

"He wouldn't be the kind of person to miss a mistake."

"That, indeed. But why didn't you say that?

"I don't know if that's what you're going to say."

He seemed stunned, either because it was a fact of shock for His Highness.

He blinks again and again with the patsy and pretends like he's thinking of something.

Then he started talking in such a voice that he could hear or not blur.

"…… Erich was a very demanding man"

Apparently, her husband, who had been His Highness's educator since childhood, was an unexpectedly relentless teacher.

Though he never stopped smiling, he said that he did not add hands and minds and treated them with perseverance.

For His Highness, such husband behaved in a favorable manner.

"If you're going to admit it's for one person, I wanted you to say it. That guy didn't really compliment me......"

My husband thought he was like honey, but he didn't seem to be either outside. I'm still surprised here.

"Your Highness, let me just say one thing. The only words I've heard are not necessarily true. Everything you know is not always right. The important thing is to think carefully on your own and act. Stay emotional, don't move. And then, if you don't understand, begging for teaching."

I've noticed it since I got married, too.

He said it was very dangerous to move with justice in you.

All the rumors about my husband were bullshit, and I realized now that my thoughts were different from those of normal people.

His Royal Highness seemed to be dropping his shoulders, changing from his earlier attitude.

If I look at you, I'll talk to you blush.

"Erich, will you tell me again?

"Of course that is. I'm sure it'll show you the right way."

His Royal Highness, in a voice that seemed to disappear, said that he understood, saying that it was bad for me.

If you look at him like that, you'll realize why he was attracted to Keira von Poloberk.

She's a very sweet person, and if I told you, she said all the good things in her ear.

But I think all of that was Keira von Polobark's untrue word of truth, which was the only salvation for His Highness.

When the conversation was over, Your Highness returned.

After dropping me off at the front door, I exhale deeply when I was a tough customer.

At night, my husband came home.

It seems that today was the last day to serve His Highness Augusto.

"I was surprised to hear you have served Your Highness so well."

"Yes, I'm glad."

Apparently, my words echoed His Highness somewhat.

I find that intense tongue battle during the day was pointless and reassuring.

One thing settled on this, huh?

I noticed my husband smiling at me and asked him what it was. Then I made a request for a reward.

I completely forgot about the mouthfeel on my cheeks. Unconscious.

"Looking forward to that, I've worked hard to this day"

"So it won't be what you'd expect."

"No, that's not true. My chest is going to rip with anticipation."

……

If I let it go, I would have raised my expectations more and more, so I decided to just mouth it.

Stand up from the bench, sitting next to you from the opposite position.

My husband said, "Go ahead," and closed his eyes.

Why did you close your eyes? Suffer from understanding.

Well, I thought I'd say the words of labor.

"Thank you for your hard work."

Really, I think it was hard serving that bigoted prince.

He didn't throw it out on the way, didn't speak of hardship or dissatisfaction, and he did it to the end. Commend such a husband.

"It was very splendid. You are my pride."

Saying so, I kissed her softly on the cheek.

Immediately release your lips and stand up and return to your starting position.

If I sat in a face-to-face position, my eyes crossed with my open husband.

"- Thank you very much, Master Helmina. I'm very, very happy."

My husband had the sweetest honey grin of all time.

I thought it was a big deal to be so happy with one of the kisses.

I got embarrassed and tried to leave the room, but my husband still tells me I need to talk to him and I can stop him.

"What's the story?

My husband spoke to Nico with a voice that sounded like he would hear the weather tomorrow.

"- Your Highness came to us today, right?

It was a tough stop to the servant and trying to hide it.
