He had always claimed that the rumor circulating in the world was nonsense, but he knew better than anyone that the rumor was true.
After her daughter’s death, his wife, who had repeatedly fainted and then woken up, had flared up as if to find the culprit, but that was only for a moment.
As the truth of the incident became clearer, Livianna began to lose her energy.
Especially now that Cheshire’s whereabouts had become increasingly elusive, and everyone began to murmur that Rose, who received Cheshire’s sponsorship, was the killer of Meriel.
No matter how much Livianna refused to believe, she would have to accept the truth in the end.
Of course, if there weren’t any unnecessary interruptions.
Bake frowned as he looked at the man sitting in the drawing room.
The man who came all the way here, clearly knowing what kind of rumors were circulating, was truly detestable.
“I never dreamed that a noble Duke like you would stoop to the level of a messenger.”
“If I’m carrying the Emperor’s voice, it’s not a disgrace to be a mere messenger.”
“Unexpectedly, Your Grace can make jokes as well.”
“I’m glad if it sounded like a joke to you.”
For a brief moment, the gazes of the two men crossed each other quickly.
Bake sat on the sofa opposite him, struggling not to avoid the oppressive gaze of Calyx.
Calyx, who had spent a long time in battle, was intimidating just by sitting, but Bake did not want to admit that fact at all.
“You probably already know, but the Emperor feels a great responsibility for this incident, and promises proper compensation, apology, and thorough investigation.”
“Of course, if you hope for the Academy to continue, that’s what should be done.”
Bake quickly scanned the document that Calyx handed over.
At a glance, the document was full of conditions such as tax issues that had been a headache for a long time, and the transfer of ownership of the territory they had been coveting. The compensation was substantial enough to prove that it was not a bluff.
It was proof that even the royal court was treating this matter as a serious issue.
Bake reached out for the document, inwardly satisfied. It was time to carefully confirm the details.
While engrossed in the document, he had no idea how Calyx was looking at him.
Calyx watched Bake quietly and opened his mouth slowly when Bake turned to the next page of the document.
“We secretly arrested Cheshire Cat, who was recently on the run, and interrogated him in the royal court. But he made a strange claim.”
“……”
“He says the accident involving the young Lady of Creighton was rigged.”
“Rigged? Surely, you’re not believing everything that mercenary is saying?”
“Of course, I’m not believing everything. But if there’s a suspicious circumstance, shouldn’t we thoroughly investigate it?”
That’s what a parent would do.
His dark, deep gaze focused sharply on Bake.
Bake clenched his teeth as he looked into Calyx’s eyes, which were so black that it was impossible to guess what he was thinking.
It was the same in the past, and it was no different now.
His black eyes, looking down on people with contempt, were utterly displeasing.
“It’s funny to hear someone without a child talking about a parent’s heart.”
“I didn’t expect myself to feel this way either, but recently, I’ve started to think differently. About a parent’s heart.”
“……”
“At least, I think I wouldn’t be primarily concerned with compensation.”
Calyx’s gaze landed on the document Bake was holding.
Bake struggled to contain his reddening face, hastily attempting to throw the documents onto the table before hesitating.
The outside was noisy.
“What’s the matter? I am certain I gave instructions that I have a guest.”
“I apologize! But Madam!”
The pale servant couldn’t complete his sentence and merely stumbled over his words.
But even with just that, without needing to identify who was first, the expressions of the two men crumpled instantly.
When the male lead is punished by carrying the female lead’s child and having periods like a woman
“I’ve given birth to two children for you, yet you still think about him.
Was I nothing but his substitute to you from beginning to end?”
