The Resetting Lady

[208] Foreign money

It was morning.

Karen opened her eyes.

Beyond the window, birds could be heard, and a pinkish white bouquet of roses was adorned at the bedside. The bed's drapery was slightly tilted, with tea and snacks outside to wake up the morning. Karen sat on the bed and reached out to lift the teacup.

I felt comfortable when the warm tea passed over my prickly neck. He sighed, came to his senses and looked down at the bedside. A familiar person lay down. Karen reached out her hand and pressed down on her blonde hair. Raymond opens his eyes.

"…carren? Good morning."

"Keep sleeping. It's still early in the morning."

"…yes."

Raymond called her in a half-asleep voice, but she closed her eyes again to Karen's constant touch. I heard the sound of breath again. The giant dog seemed to enjoy its owner's touch. Now they don't even lift up in a hurry to see if Karen is sitting next to them. Now he doesn't get up with a breath in his sleep. The war was a long way from him.

Karen sat in bed, fiddling with Raymond, and pulled the petals off his hair. But because it looked so good, I dropped the petals on him again. While I was away, I pulled a vivid flower out of the vase and put it in his head. I was quite satisfied. He was a tough guy, but there was no man who looked so good in flowers. Besides, he liked flowers.

His gifts were all his favorites. Hydrangeas, roses, lilies, tulips, freesiers....

Every day, he would cut fresh flowers, not gardeners, and decorate them by his bedside. The room was overflowing with flowers. It was so busy to deal with the overflowing bouquet every day. In the future, there is no man to use the same bedroom as Karen except Raymond, so he is destined to be buried in flowers for the rest of his life.

Karen was once again relieved that the man she was with was Raymond. It was something I felt every morning, but I didn't think I could love anyone else. He is a man who looks good with flowers, a man who doesn't spare jewelry, and a man who is handsome even when sleeping, so he sweeps his chest with good luck.

"…will it happen?"

"It's okay to sleep more."

"I can't sleep anymore. I'll get up. "It's a little bit on the head.

"Why do you take it off when it suits you?"

Raymond put his hand on the flower in his head and stopped.

"Should I stay on?"

"Yes."

"Until when?"

"Until I'm sick of it."

“…….”

Raymond tried to say something, but he put a flower in his head without saying anything more, and he also picked one more and put it in Karen's head.

"Then keep plugging it in, too.

"Yes, I have no complaints.”

"…oh dear."

It was strange for a man to have flowers in his hair, but it was not unusual for women to wear them. Raymond belatedly noticed that he had made a mistake, but he was already late.

"Don't you like it?"

"I'm a little embarrassed."

"That's nice."

Karen smiled and kissed Raymond on the cheek. When Raymond is embarrassed, sullen, or ashamed. It was good to see such various aspects. That's because it makes me realize he's alive.

"I just want you to smile.”

"It echoes well in bed."

“…….”

"Coffee, tea, milk, what would you like?"

"Coffee, thick, please."

I think I'm really old.

Karen felt her cheeks a little puffy. When Raymond closed his mouth and stared at him, he could not even think of making fun of him. He hurriedly sat up in his gown.

I'm glad there are others in the mansion.’

Karen sighed with relief. People need it. in many senses

The fact that children are necessary has erased Raymond's need for restraint. Of course, he's aware of the need. Still, the physical difference was so severe that sometimes it felt too much.

"Coffee."

Karen reached out and kicked the curtain on the bed, pulling the tray the maid had just brought. A silver cover was placed on a brown tray made of walnut trees.

When I heard it, I saw hot water and coffee, tea and milk, and scones that I could eat with it. The cup was engraved with gold with royal seals and patterns.

"When did you get this cup? I haven't seen it."

Raymond looked up and turned to the glass with a caught face.

"Well, it's been around for a while."

"There's a work that I gave you last week? When did you go to the palace again?"

"Last time you slept all day....”

"Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"It's not a big deal, I just got back by train. Oh, of all people, why would you....”

It's not a big deal.

Karen clicked her tongue as she looked at the royal seal in the glass. This was a decoration I've seen in the past.

Raymond apparently went to help Prince Louis without telling himself. It had been a long time since he slept and woke up, and the master was resting while enjoying a bath at the maid's words that he had work, so he seemed to have saved the country.

"Why didn't you say something before you came back."

"I thought you might be worried."

"I'm confident I won't worry. How old are you, and you must have done it on your own."

"Yes."

At least I had the confidence not to show concern. At Karen's answer, Raymond mumbled, looking at her face.

"I'm hurt."

"Drink some coffee. And from now on, I'll talk."

"Okay."

Karen handed the coffee to Raymond and picked up the newspaper underneath it. Karen breathed in fresh morning air from the slightly open window.

A little convenience amuses a person. Even newspapers do that. Karen opened the newspaper and slowly read it from the top.

"Lord Raymond, look at this."

"Yes, it's a newspaper."

"Yes."

Raymond put his glass down on the bedside table and picked up the newspaper Karen had handed him. Look over and breathe out a weak sigh.

"Prince Gwiz has been decided. It's a good thing."

Raymond smiled bitterly at the newspaper with Zion's small face. Of course Sion can't remember, but Raymond, who remembers, has learned how to make the ball more efficient. Raymond read the ball from Zion Electra with the heart of a professor with a good student.

"No, of course that's important, but not that. Where are you looking at?”

"What?"

Karen flipped over the newspaper that Raymond was reading.

"Read the bottom of the back page. Why are you looking at the society first?”

Tap. Karen pointed to the bottom of the newspaper.

a luxurious cruise

"…what is this?"

Karen smiled brightly at Raymond's puzzled face.

"I asked you to come with me anywhere. But you know we haven't gone anywhere yet, right? I want to go to the sea."

"Sea?"

"Yes."

After a brief wedding, Karen quickly became the mistress of the Tess mansion. Unlike in my previous life, it was definitely a comfortable life as a hostess. But that was not enough for Karen, who was thirsty for a new place, a new meeting.

"Didn't you ask us to go anywhere in the ocean, in the desert, in the snow? I told you I'd take you anywhere."

I want to go somewhere new!

Karen cried with eager eyes.

Raymond shut his mouth and looked at the newspaper's advertisement and answered long after.

"…the sea is too dangerous, Karen."

In Raymond's answer, Karen folded the newspaper she was holding. There was an advertisement for cruise ships. The blue sea, fresh wind, daily parties in the city above the sea, and numerous delicacies were depicted. Karen spoke to Raymond with an excited face.

"You'll be safe! Look at this. We don't go to dangerous routes. It's a tour of five islands in the south, and there's no reef, there's no wind....”

"We don't know what's going to happen in the ocean, Karen."

"I know this period anyway. This ship hasn't been in a storm in a year."

“…….”

Raymond groaned. Karen again pointed to the advertising column with a triumphant face to Raymond, who was speechless.

"Will you go?"

"No."

But Raymond didn't lose.

"Carran, you've been nosed to death in dishwater, slipped and died on the stairs, and you've died of a heart attack in your sleep, and that's crazy about the ocean. The past is not fixed even though it flows similarly."

"Hey, I already made a reservation."

Karen made a poor excuse, but Raymond's face didn't shake.

"What are you talking about, Karen? If you really made a reservation, please cancel it."

"…I heard you're going anywhere. Was it a joke to ask you to go anywhere in the world together? Are you treating me as if I didn't have anything to say before I got married?”

When Karen's voice fell, Raymond refuted it with a slightly unfair face.

"You're pregnant."

Raymond was extremely sensitive about Karen, who had just been pregnant.

According to the formula sent by Duran, Karen was drugged, and she tried all the meals first. At first, he asked another pregnant woman with infertility problems to experiment first, but he quit when he was told that there was no one like him who had been on medication for a long time. He hated Karen not to exist in his sight, and was worried about going out alone in the garden outside the mansion.

"Where the hell are you going with that body?"

"Uh…."

Karen was willing to receive his obsession and love.

But the pregnant Karen seemed to go crazy with her Gap. The idea of being finally released from the book made me excited. Karen had a hard time suppressing her impulsive mind when she saw the boat coming in little by little. Not in the room, not in the mansion, but in the moment, I wanted to see a wave of blue beyond the end of the land.

"Then when are you going? After giving birth?"

"Then why don't you stay for about a year?"

A year?

After the birth?

Karen became distant when she thought of a year later. He has repeated himself more than 100 times in just one year. Just thinking about the next day of the year makes my heart pound and pound, and then the next year. It sounded the same as saying let's go in 100 years.

"You can take your nanny with you."

"It's not a matter of nanny, but it's better to rest for a while after giving birth. You have to rest for at least a year, and the ocean is dangerous until the child grows up to some extent."

"…how long until the child grows up?”

Raymond straightened his finger while thinking.

"It should be five years."

Karen threw the newspaper on the floor.

"Ka, Karen."

"That's enough."

He called Karen in a trembling voice, but she gidded and stared at Raymond and turned to the end. Then he went outside intentionally, stamping his feet.

However, there was no noise because he was wearing thick slippers and pajamas. Karen, bang the door instead! I closed it with a sound. He didn't even look back.

"…the sea."

Raymond sighed as Karen picked up the newspaper that had been thrown on the floor. He knew how much Karen wanted to go to the sea or other countries. However, that was not the case.

"That's not going to work."

Karen is pregnant.

This is not the first time, but Raymond thought he should be more careful about his safety because he had never succeeded in giving birth. Karen was going crazy because she wanted to go out, but isn't it time for her to calm down?

He was also not very comfortable. However, even if Karen is angry now, she will give up soon anyway. Karen herself, of course, knows how important stability is during pregnancy.

"Well."

Raymond took off his pajamas and stopped trying to change. Karen used to pick out Raymond's clothes as a hobby. Raymond tried to call the butler but stopped. Because I was shy to say the reason. Eventually Raymond started the day by changing his clothes by himself.

"It's okay. Well, it's not a kid."

It'll be over in a little while.

But it was Raymond's vain expectations.
