Second Male Lead, You Said It Was A Contract Marriage? (7 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 094
Bertisha was smirking as if she knew every truth. I nearly wavered for a moment.
‘Stay calm. There’s only circumstantial suspicion—there might not be any actual evidence.’
“Your Majesty the Empress, how can you say we aren’t a real married couple? Is such an absurd rumor spreading behind my back without my knowledge?”
I asked with a light laugh, as if the idea were utterly ridiculous. Bertisha’s gaze then scrutinized me. I could feel her confidence softening as she observed my composed reaction.
“You’re quite the skilled actress, Lady Orbetian… I almost believed I’d been mistaken. But think about it—this doesn’t make sense.”
“What doesn’t make sense, exactly?”
“From the very beginning. The assumption that Yezar had a long-term lover unknown to both me and Camileo—that part doesn’t add up.”
Her eyes bored into me, relentless in their attempt to dig out the truth. I couldn’t let her discover here and now that our marriage was merely contractual.
Because if she realized I was nothing to him, she might try to approach Yezar again.
Or worse, use that as an excuse to expose me.
“But why? I know the three of you were close. But would someone really reveal a lover’s secret to a friend? A lover and a friend are different things, aren’t they?”
Bertisha tilted her head slightly.
“They are different—but tell me, would a man in love with one woman ever truly love another at the same time? Yezar isn’t that kind of man.”
She said it so calmly, as if she knew him completely. Her point was clear: Yezar had loved her back then, so the idea of him having another lover didn’t make sense.
It struck me as contradictory—she had ignored his heart back then, yet now claimed to know he wasn’t the type to betray a lover.

Panicked, I shouted at him.
But let him put that greedy bitch in her place. She wants everything for herself. I hope things don’t go well for her at all.
