It's no use having someone he loves, it's no use asking him to abandon me because he's disabled, there's a lot more money for Isela, and all he had was blood and honor. It wasn't something Raymond could give. Raymond's head was about to explode trying to figure out how he could break up with Isela and get close to Karen and Isella.

If you ask me to lend you money, Isela will give you everything, and when she meets another woman, Isela will pour her anger on her, not Raymond. Why did Isela look at herself so blindly that she didn't give Karen any sympathy?

Isela showed off a full-blown rose, guiding Raymond to the greenhouse. It was early spring, but various flowers were blooming inside the greenhouse. said Isela, pointing to one of the roses.

"The gardener made a new breed. Isn't it beautiful?”

"I see."

Raymond looked down at Isela's head from above in the greenhouse and was in agony. Karen was very considerate of herself, but for Raymond, it was easier and more comfortable to kill Isella and Verdick. His god, his wife's compassion for him, could not be abandoned, but he had already become a more comfortable man to kill.

Murder is hard at first. A bad deed begins with a heavy beginning. Once he began to take no means, he was able to follow suit. But this time, Karen pushed him back to walk on the bright road again. If she wishes, Raymond should take another step.

"Miss Icela Evans."

Isela turned to Raymond. Isela's eyes glistened with expectation. Raymond remembered another girl with those eyes. His eyes were looking forward to it. However, Raymond couldn't meet Isela's expectations.

"I'm not marrying you."

But you still have to say it.

Raymond looked at Isela silently.

"…why?"

Isela's voice sank cold. Raymond recalled all the things he had said so far. No other woman, no wealth, no injury to herself, nothing helped her break up.

"I thought a lot after I got hurt this time."

"It's not too bad that Raymond got hurt. It's very considerate of you to worry about that."

But I'll never let you go. That's what Isela's eyes were saying.

"No, I didn't mean to be considerate of you. I decided that I couldn't live a short life to you every day."

"…now, I don't know what you're talking about….”

"I don't like you, Miss Icela Evans.”

Raymond spoke calmly.

Other excuses didn't work. And whatever she said, Isela interpreted it in her favor. Why does Isela like her? Raymond thought it was his appearance. And I thought it was of blood. Raymond wasn't part of what he could do. However, if it were to trample on honor or courtesy, it could have been done.

Raymond trimmed his voice.

"I hate Verdick Evans. Your father is the worst person. He ruined my family."

"Don't say anything about my father! You don't even know grace?”

"Why should I repay Verdick? From the beginning, the plague was caused by the land development of the Evans family."

"Don't talk nonsense!"

However, it was not a groundless sound. Berdick's whereabouts, a part of the Duke's doubt about Verdick Evans, were further revealed over the years. Berdick's biggest business was in arms sales, but he had a wide range of hands. He did not hesitate to experiment with human bodies. Although Berdyck has moved to save Karen from his previous life, his nature is evil. He doesn't hesitate to do anything for his money.

"The Duke of Rutella will be visiting soon. Mr. Berdick Evans promised to exile him. But isn't it funny? The royal family would want to assassinate the Duke of Rutella. I want the land the Duke of Rutella has. It was your grandfather who started to incite conflict, and it was your father who took their land."

"If you talk about your father carelessly, even Lord Raymond...!”

Please leave me.

But Isela took her breath back.

"Do it right. Mr. Raymond heard the false rumor while meeting other people in society. How can you say that if you don't even know it? I never thought Lord Raymond was such a narrow-minded man."

"Icella Evans."

"I'm not your father!"

Isela didn't look like she was going to let go of Raymond again this time.

"You're only in the army, so you don't know much about it yet. You'll know the world if you get married right away, and then you'll know the world."

"I already know enough."

"I don't know!"

Icela Evans shouted nervously. Raymond looked down at Isela.

Isela may not be unaware that her father, Verdick, does all sorts of illegal things. But giving the reason didn't work for Isella. Because Verdick's family is everything Isela can put forward.

"What do you know?"

I was at a loss.

But Raymond remembered that he had no honor and no morality. Maybe

"I know I'm handsome."

"…what?"

"When I look in the mirror, I can't help but not know. I've never been that handsome in society. Everywhere I go, I hear praise and I know it."

Isela opened her eyes wide and listened to Raymond's self-praise. The situation seemed to be hard to grasp. Raymond's beauty, which is unknown whether it is a joke or a true story, continued further. And Raymond finished his horse.

"And there are a lot of women out there in society. People who are much more beautiful than you."

"…what women are they? Lady Cecilia? Or Lady Beatrice?

"Well."

Raymond smiled languidly.

"There are so many that I can't remember.”

Isela's face became colder and colder.

Raymond had a funny face. It may succeed for the first time. So I added one more word. Karen also said something amazing when she heard it.

"So I can't be satisfied with your face. I only see their faces."

***

Isela was mad with rage. She blushed when she spoke ill of her father, but when she directly criticized her appearance, Isela almost roared with anger.

"What did you just say?"

"You're dead!

Raymond rubbed his tingling face with a cold object. A servant of the Evans brought him a cold water bag. Isela was viciously after Raymond's injured eyes. The servant also saw Isela get so angry with Raymond.

"Why did you say so?"

“…….”

Raymond sighed.

What's the name of this servant? I couldn't remember.

"Well done, though. I felt so good. Miss Isela... You're right, honestly, you don't have such a pretty face. But how cheap he was was, he had such a great attitude that it was hard to see."

Raymond laughed bitterly.

Then he returned the water bag he had given him.

"Thank you for this."

"Don't mention it. Will you go without seeing your master?"

"I don't know what Ms. Isela's opinion will be like."

Raymond got up.

I wanted to see Karen's face. Indeed, Karen's face was also his favorite.

"And you'd better watch what you say.”

"…uh, oh, my lady?"

Icela Evans was staring at Raymond dead beyond the nearby bush. Raymond walked away mourning his servant.

"Good-bye, Icela Evans."

"You're going to die."

Isela uttered a curse.

But that was a blessing for Raymond. Raymond walked away.

"I'm sorry."

Raymond apologized to Isela for the first time.

But the words were too small to be heard by anyone.

He had never seen Isela in her own right. Isela has always been Verdick's secondary product and a means of revenge. Raymond saw for the first time a selfish girl screaming evil. She wasn't good to herself. But there was no hatred.

Raymond left the greenhouse.

***

"…did you say that to Isela?”

"Yes."

Karen covered her eyes.

I told him to break up. But I didn't know you'd say that much. What if Isela is rumored to be a social circles? But Raymond smiled brightly. It was a light smile that he had done his duty.

"Now maybe you can go and comfort Ms. Isela."

"Oh, I hope so. Please wish me success."

"Yes, sir. Have you got the gift ready? Will you take the necklace back to Miss Icela Evans?"

"…that's the thing."

Karen shut up without seeing Raymond. The attitude was strange. Karen cooed her mouth and groaned around her head.

"Carran? Are you sick?"

“…….”

"I don't have a fever. What's wrong?"

As Karen kept her mouth shut, Raymond turned his head and called the man.

"Nancy!"

Any maid who is attached to her will know why. But the inn was quiet. I booked another maid's room, but the next room was empty. Strange. There was plenty of time after Raymond left. Nancy must have been informed of the changed inn. And she took the necklace and left in high spirits to get a refund. It was already time to come back and stay. When Raymond came back from looking in the next room, Karen said in a small voice.

"…he's not here."

"What are you talking about?"

"He ran away with the necklace and all the money."

"…yeah?"

Nancy couldn't resist temptation again this time.

Karen handed over Nancy's note to Raymond.

Dear my beloved girl,

Congratulations on meeting Raymond! But shouldn't I live my life, too? There was a huge difference between the amount you were supposed to give me and the necklace, so I couldn't help it. Be happy and live long!

I'll use the necklace and money for my new departure fund.

Terris loves me, so don't be so angry and bless us.

Nancy Dream With Love

"…who is Terrace?"

"The horse, the horse. The most... Nancy's been a big fan of him for a long time.”

"Hahahahaha."

When Raymond laughed, Karen said a word.

"For reference, I took all my money, Lord Raymond."

"…I'm in trouble."

"Yes."

The hotel's accommodation costs are short, let alone gifts.

The faces of the two have been seriously hardened.
