“Ha, who says? Stop drinking your wild fantasies.”
“Wild fantasies? What is that?”
Oops, in my haste to not let the robe be taken away, I used a term that broke the logic.
“Fine, never mind. You don’t need to know.”
I held out my hand to Philip.
“If you don’t want to wear it, don’t. Just give it to me.”
“…What?”
“I really like that robe. If I have two, I can wear them alternately, and I’ll like it even more.”
“…Weren’t you wanting to wear them together?”
I couldn’t help but chuckle.
Philip, you might be goodlooking, but I’m not the old Ellen.
“Why would I want that when we’re divorcing? Stop with the wild fantasies…”
I tapped my mouth with my hand. I need to find another word for ‘wild fantasies.’
‘Don’t count your chickens before they’re hatched.’ How to replace this saying?
“Don’t put the cart before the horse.”
The rough analogy seemed to fit the world’s atmosphere, and Philip looked confused.
“It’s a new analogy to me, but I understand the meaning. It’s the same as ‘stop drinking your wild fantasies.’”
“That’s right. If you understand, give me yours too. I’ll use it well.”
Philip stroked my nape once and looked at me straight.
His clear purple eyes looked like amethyst, and I couldn’t help but stare blankly.
After making eye contact with me for a moment, Philip raised one corner of his mouth.
“Stop drinking your wild fantasies.”
“……”
“I like the children’s gifts very much too. I only meant to display them since I can’t wear them with my wife.”
Oops, I didn’t expect him to apply that so quickly.
I was at a loss for words and felt embarrassed.
At the same time, Philip let out a small chuckle. It felt like a million roses blooming, but I quickly faced reality.
‘So what? It’s just a scornful laugh.’
He has no reason to smile kindly at Ellen.
“My face is wearing out, so stop looking.”
Then Marlboro cautiously spoke.
“I, actually, I bought two of those couple robes.”
“Huh?”
“They said it was a special product.”
When Marlboro lifted the white wrapping paper, another robe appeared below.
“What, why didn’t you say so earlier?”
I pretended to be calm, but my embarrassment reached the sky. Next time, I shouldn’t be greedy for things that aren’t mine.
I overreacted when trying to react to Laila’s gift.
“Then Philip, I don’t need yours.”
I elegantly picked up my teacup as if nothing had happened.
Having already displayed a record level of shamelessness while welcoming Laila, the attitude change was relatively easy.
“As Philip said. We’ve stamped the divorce papers, and in a hundred days, I’ll leave this house exactly.”
The small smile at the corner of Philip’s mouth disappeared. Marlboro, Laila, and Domingo looked on in surprise, holding their breath, watching us.
“Wife, what did you just say?”
I shrugged my shoulders in response to Philip’s quick retort.
Certainly, here is the translation following your guidelines:
“Once the coolingoff period is over, we can leave, can’t we?”
“Did I hear wrong?”
“What?”
“Don’t say that you will leave this mansion as soon as the coolingoff period is over.”
“I didn’t hear wrong. Isn’t it a happy thing for you too?”
“……”
Count Philip Morris’s brow furrowed. He looked suspicious.
“Why stay here more when we’re going to divorce? I’m fine with leaving tomorrow if I feel like it.”
I gracefully sipped my tea as I spoke.
“Ah, and although I won’t be the Countess after the divorce, considering my status as a former duchess, I’d like you to give me a proper house. Don’t just slap some cheap wallpaper on a small twostory house in a city alleyway.”
“I have……”
Count Philip Morris, who had swallowed his words once, took a breath and asked.
“Have you ever spoken to the Countess about the alimony to be given later?”
“No, but I think you would. Especially since a house is not something bought in a day or two, shouldn’t it be under consideration by now?”
“It should be under consideration by now, but……”
Count Philip Morris cut off his words. He seemed to be biting his tongue slightly.
‘Aha.’
Seeing that he did not immediately deny it, it seemed that my words were right.
The idea about the house to give to Ellen had been roughly planned from around this time.
Or even if he had spoken like that, he had already bought the house.
“Maybe you’ve considered several or already bought one, thinking, ‘I’ll choose when the coolingoff period is over depending on what the Countess does.’ Did you calculate it that way?”
When Count Philip Morris closed his mouth altogether, Marlboro forced a smile.
“Surely, Father would not do such a thing.”
“I’ve been doing a lot of hateful things all along, so wouldn’t you think so? After all, we will be strangers once we’re divorced.”
Having spoken my thoughts out loud, I made my request to Philip first.
“Let me choose the house I will live in. And let me use the house you’ll give me from now on.”
He swallowed a bitter breath, then nodded.
Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman
When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…
One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.
Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
