And the auction price soon caught the Countess’s eye.
“You, you crazy XX!”
“Ahh!”
With her jaw dropped, Tuberosha tore at Gerald’s hair.
Whether her eyes were functioning properly or not, Countess Tuberosha’s hand plucked out a lot of Gerald’s hair.
The bidder was anonymous, but who wouldn’t know when it’s being flaunted like this?
‘I would have died too if I’d bid that way.’
I knew he was trash already, but no matter what, selling a castle for a few bottles of alcohol, what is this?
Rather than being pleased, I was dumbfounded.
The glamorous party had turned into a complete mess.
Gerald screamed and wailed.
“You’re buying anything!! Whipping the wet nurse…… if you’re busy…… Ahhh!”
“You, you drunken idiot, what are you saying!”
“Ugh!”
The Countess quickly clamped her husband’s mouth shut.
But she couldn’t avoid the Emperor’s gaze.
“What is this, Count Gerald?”
“Your Majesty, please do not heed the ravings of a drunkard.”
Wyeno gently pulled the Emperor.
However, the Emperor shook off her hand and ordered the Countess.
“I will hear the testimony from the Count. Remove your hand.”
“But…… Ah!”
Before Tuberosha could remove her hand, Gerald bit it.
With his mouth free, Gerald grinned with his flushed face.
“No, no I heard everything, I did. Our lady, I caught that pig of a count conspiring with !”
People’s mouths gaped open.
Indeed, it was the power of makgeolli that could make someone unrecognizable even to their own parents.
“I told her I would show her the taste of the whip ugh, yuck ! As a man, I, Gerald, will not bear and live anymore!”
“Can you say that even when you’re sober?”
“If it’s a lie, I’m telling, ah, I would be happy to cut open my belly !”
In response to the emperor’s question, Gerald made a motion as if to cut his belly.
There was no need to hear any more.
“Arrest Count and Countess Epilton for the crime of insulting the royal family, and arrest the Duke and Duchess of Romang for fraud. The rest of the charges will be decided in the courtroom.”
“Your, Your Majesty!”
Tuberosha shouted. The knights quickly arrested her and the drunken duke.
“Empress Mama, don’t you know this is all a misunderstanding?”
Tuberosha looked at the empress, begging to be spared, but Wyeno didn’t even pretend to see.
‘Of course.’
Empress Wyeno had kept those she could dismiss at any time close and in control.
The same was true for the Duke of Romang. The empress had paid off his gambling debts and ensured that Tuberosha could not leave him, leaving a weakness that she could exploit to abandon them both at some point.
Tuberosha, who had crossed the line with the empress, was embraced by the emperor’s arm.
“I never thought the Duchess would act like this… I’m truly shocked. Your Majesty, please calm my surprised heart.”
Wyeno’s hand clung to the emperor.
After briefly looking down at her, the emperor let out a short sigh.
“Go back.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
With an attitude of resignation from the emperor, Wyeno smiled as if it was only natural.
Soon both the empress and emperor left the banquet hall.
Even the host of the party, Olloze, had been dragged away by the knights.
“I, I think I should go.”
“Hoho, we should also leave…”
The nobles, noticing the situation, began to leave one by one.
Only our children and the Count’s children remained.
“Mom, Dad?”
Giovanni looked for his parents who had been dragged away.
The child was about to cry, then suddenly turned his head and glared at me.
“You, whore!! It’s all because of you!”
Wow, this kid’s language.
The child’s pitiable appearance was completely overshadowed.
As I opened my mouth in astonishment, a soft sound of neck snapping came from beside me.
It was Kashar.
“Kid, it’s not a collective responsibility.”
Kashar was looking down at Giovanni before he realized it.
“Life’s going to get tough for you.”
Sometimes living is worse than dying.
His voice was as cold as ice.
“Go back.”
“Ah, yes.”
I answered in surprise and turned around.
There were the twins.
“Come here.”
As I opened my arms, the small children snuggled into my embrace.
An Indifferent Woman is the One Men Desire the Most
One-line summary: The female lead is actually cold-hearted and extremely rational. She has stage-by-stage relationships and won’t two-time, but there will always be someone who secretly likes her.
This novel has the following triggers, so if you’re sensitive to these, please don’t read:
1. The female lead has had many relationships, but she treated each one seriously and broke up properly.
It’s just that the men unilaterally pestered her incessantly. For the female lead, when she doesn’t like someone anymore, she simply doesn’t like them.
(This applies to her relationships with Male Lead 1, 2, 3, and 4 as well, but she’s loyal in each 1-on-1 relationship!)
2. In this novel, Male Lead 2 and the female lead kiss in a car, and Male Lead 1 sees it and beats up Male Lead 2.
The female lead calls the police and sends both Male Lead 1 and 2 to the police station! Male Lead 1 begs the female lead not to break up with him.
3. Male Lead 1 has a gentle appearance but an obsessive personality.
