She was only shown to men who could become a source of money for the Witlow family, and through their mouths, Iris became ‘the flower of the Witlow duchy’.
Even though everyone was curious about Iris, not debuting her in the social world made many men want to see Iris.
And so, the value of Iris went up, and a short while ago, Alford mentioned the mines in Ravent, so a contract was planned to be written with Alford today.
However, the agreedupon Alford didn’t come, and unexpectedly, Kevrant paid a visit and demanded Iris be brought out.
It was an unavoidably difficult situation.
“Ah, um… since the eldest daughter isn’t married yet…”
At the difficultly produced excuse, Kevrant’s lips curled up.
At the cold smile, Globan swallowed dry saliva.
“These days, who bothers with such things? You should know that in Lordburn Count’s house, and Prunta Duke’s house, they started marrying off the second or youngest child. Even the 3rd and 5th princes of the Gabizar empire got married before the crown prince.”
Kevrant slowly said.
“Do you, by any chance, think that this Kevrant Green is lacking to be a soninlaw of the Witlow Duke family?”
“No, no, how could that be? How could it be? It’s not that, Duke Witlow. Just that… our Iris is quite shy and frail… it seems she doesn’t want to get married yet. As you know, she’s even scared to step into the social world.”
“Oh, is that so?”
Kevrant drew up his lips.
Globan realized for the first time that a smile made with eyes devoid of laughter could be frightening.
“That makes her even more desirable.”
It’s a failure.
Globan quickly tried to think of another reason.
“As you know, these days, love marriages are in fashion. Our Iris has always said that she wants to have a love marriage…”
“There is a gold mine in Benote.”
Kevrant interrupted Globan’s words.
At the mention of the gold mine in Benote, Globan’s ears perked up.
The Benote gold mine owned by the Green family was a rich mine with plenty of gold and large diamonds, ranking among the top five.
Compared to the gold mine promised by Alford in Ravent, it was embarrassingly large.
“I intended to give the Benote gold mine as a dowry…”
Globan swallowed hard.
“But since Miss Iris wants a love marriage, it’s a shame.”
As if Kevrant had no more business to attend to, he stood up.
“Wa, wait a moment, Duke!”
Now, Globan was at his wits’ end.
Iris was raised for such a moment.
The gold mine in Benote. And the prestige of the Green family.
It was a good decision not to kill Iris as per his wife’s words.
“Do you have more to discuss?”
Kevrant, who had given up on Iris, was cold.
Globan was anxious that Kevrant might leave like this.
“We, well, please have a seat, Duke. It’s been a while since we’ve seen each other, hasn’t it?”
“Hmm.”
“And then… when I think about it, our Iris was shy and scared of dating, but she said it wouldn’t be bad to marry a man chosen by me… so… please sit. Yes?”
Globan said, pointing to the sofa.
Kevrant slowly sat on the sofa and crossed his legs.
Even though a young kid was behaving disrespectfully, Globan was not angry.
Globan’s mind was filled with ‘the gold mine in Benote’.
“So… you’re giving the Benote gold mine as a dowry.”
“Like this.”
Kevrant took out a document from his pocket.
“I even prepared the documents. Duke, you just have to sign.”
“Is, is that so?”
Looking at the documents, Globan’s eyes glittered with greed.
“So then… uh… since it seems like Duke Green will take good care of our Iris…”
Knock Knock
The sound of knocking interrupted Globan’s words.
Globen, on the cusp of a crucial moment, was vexed by the interruption.
“What is it!”
“Father, it’s me.”
Hearing Brittany’s voice, Globen had a different thought.
Indeed, it was a waste to hand over the position of the Countess of Green to someone like Iris.
If the steadfast Kevrant had asked Brittany to dance, wouldn’t his mind change upon seeing Brittany again?
“Come in.”
He responded without asking Kevrant’s opinion.
The door opened, and Brittany, looking more radiant than usual, stepped softly inside.
Brittany had slightly tied up her dazzling blonde hair, letting a few strands fall, and wore a pink dress that revealed her shoulders but looked dignified rather than provocative.
A small pendant necklace accentuated her slender neckline.
Brittany was as pretty as a doll.
Brittany slightly lifted her skirt and softly bent her knee in greeting towards Kevrant.
“It’s been a while, Count Green.”
“That it has.”
“It’s our first meeting since the last party.”
“That it is.”
Globen glanced at Kevrant’s expression.
However, he couldn’t read any emotions from Kevrant’s expressionless face.
“Well, sit down, Brin.”
“Yes, Father.”
Brittany gently sat next to Globen.
Kevrant’s gaze was still cold.
“By the way, at the last party, I heard that you asked our Brittany to dance… I heard that you two made a truly beautiful pair, Count Green.”
“Hmm.”
Kevrant narrowed his eyes.
“Is that so? Who said that?”
“Huh? Oh, that was…”
Naturally, he had heard it from Brittany.
“At that time, you danced with me, Count. Don’t you remember?”
Brittany asked innocently.
Seeing Brittany, Kevrant said nonchalantly.
“Miss Brittany seems to have a very poor memory.”
“Huh?”
“It wasn’t me who asked for the dance, it was Miss Brittany. You pleaded desperately for just one dance. Ah, you also added ‘please,’ at the end, didn’t you?”
Brittany’s face turned red.
Given Brittany’s personality, she should have screamed at him, but she couldn’t do that because her opponent was the Count of Green House.
Brittany clenched her skirt tightly and panted.
It would be nice if her father stepped in at this time, but Globen was unable to do anything except watch Kevrant’s reaction.
Knock knock
Amidst the heavy and awkward atmosphere, a knock on the door was heard.
Even though no one responded, the door opened.
The person standing behind the door was Lishi.
“Iris, where do you think this place is…”
She found someone to vent her anger on.
She should pretend to take Lishi out of the room and vent her anger on her.
Just as Brittany was about to stand up with this thought, Kevrant, who had risen first, walked briskly towards Iris.
Lishi, wearing a humble dress unfit for the occasion, watched Kevrant walk up to her with both hands neatly gathered in front.
As if it should be.
Kevrant stopped in front of Lishi, placed his hand on his stomach, and bowed respectfully.
“Nice to meet you, Miss Iris. And I beg you earnestly. Please marry me.”
When yandere male lead believes she loves him — but she never did
“How dare you!”
“How dare you make me love you, only to cast me aside as nothing more than a friend?!?
“I will never accept that.”
“I will never let you return to him.”
“Even if I have to burn myself to ashes.”
“Even if I must shatter my purity, my dignity, my very soul.”
“I will never let you escape me!”
This was the first novel that introduced me to the matriarchal genre. I’ve read it three times already!
At first, the male lead despised the female lead. Later, he misunderstood that she liked him, so he condescendingly and reluctantly reciprocated her feelings.
Then, he suddenly discovered that she was kind to everyone in the same way, and there was already someone she cherished in her heart, and that person was not him.
The male lead couldn’t believe it, he became angry and crazy. He was determined to capture her body and heart by any means necessary.
Synopsis:
Want to see how a green tea bitch male lead falls in love with the female lead?
Want to see how he flirtatiously pursues the female lead?
Want to see how he gets slapped in the face repeatedly?
The male lead is a green tea bitch, a poisonous lotus, jealous, ruthless, unscrupulous, with a venomous heart, and he’s also a delusional maniac.
The female lead is righteous, positive energy-filled, kind, a holy mother.
Let’s see how two people with extreme personalities come together~
