“Madam. I’ve been waiting.”
With Roberto’s greeting, Lamein halted in front of Cedric’s room.
Ever since she proposed the divorce, it wasn’t pleasing to treat him specially.
Lamein, who took long and slow breaths, gestured with her eyes as she looked at Roberto.
Knock, knock.
With the knock, the door opened to reveal Cedric sitting at an angle in front of the table near the window.
The man seated in front of the brightly lit window.
It felt like watching a scene from a movie.
She passed Roberto, who had opened the door wide and stepped back, and went into Cedric’s room.
Cedric, who had been holding a book, put it on the table and rose from his seat.
“My lady, please come and sit here.”
At his polite gesture, she moved to a seat opposite Cedric.
“Rober…”
“I’m fine with the tea.”
Lamein, who was in a hurry to speak and leave, interrupted Cedric’s words and nodded slightly to Roberto.
Thud.
The wideopen door was completely closed.
“I’m curious about what you have to say this time, my lady.”
A slightly mocking sentence came through.
Do you have anything else to say besides the divorce? It felt like he was asking that.
Lamein, maintaining her composure and looking straight at her husband, moved her lips slowly.
“I’m not here to talk about us.”
Really? Cedric raised his eyelids slightly as if to ask.
“Then why are you here?”
“I came because of what happened this morning.”
“This morning? Ah, you mean the incident at the restaurant?”
“Yes. I have a favor to ask.”
“A favor?”
When Lamein nodded, he nodded as if to encourage her to speak.
“Please move Rodell’s place of work.”
Cedric’s eyelids, densely lined with eyelashes, slowly fell and then returned to their place.
He leaned comfortably against the chair with his loosely held torso.
“Where to? Are you asking me to send him out of this mansion?”
Do you want to drive him out? It seemed like he was asking with that look.
He definitely treated her like someone who had come to punish a servant who had dirtied her dress.
“No, there’s no reason to drive him out.”
Lamein replied firmly.
“Then where should I send him?”
Tap, tap, tap.
Cedric’s long fingers rhythmically hit the table.
Watching his movement that seemed to push in impatience like timing, she opened her mouth.
“I heard that today’s incident was not the first. He has fainted before.”
“Yes, he has.”
He replied very lightly.
“If such an incident occurs again, the place where he is currently working is dangerous for Rodell.”
“Dangerous?”
“We never know when and where he might faint again. A place with sharp and hot things is dangerous.”
The eyes holding the blue pupils increased in size bit by bit.
“Perhaps the laundry room or the garden. No, the garden has many dangerous tools, so it won’t work. The library is also fine, I think it’s appropriate to move him to a place where people don’t come and go as much.”
She spat out her words in a slightly faster speed but calmly.
Cedric, who had been looking straight into her eyes without any movement, straightened his reclined torso.
Hmm. Cedric, who made a small sound, scrutinized Lamein’s face with a sharp look.
Lamein stared at him with a determined look as if he must do as she said.
“Lamein, since when were you so interested in the affairs of the servants?”
His words somehow made her feel drained.
She thought it was only natural that he would have doubts.
Because she must seem like a woman who only does bad things.
“Whether I was interested or not is not the point. It’s a situation that can be thought of just from today’s incident.”
But she decided not to back down.
And she hoped he would look at the situation directly, not associating it with her.
“What if I don’t do as you say?”
“…Cedric?”
Lamein inadvertently raised the end of her sentence.
“You’re saying a person who knows enough wouldn’t do that?”
“Calm down.”
“The illness Rodell has is not one that can be cured easily.”
“How do you know that?”
Her words were blocked for a moment, but she immediately connected them again.
“I’ve had a servant with the same symptoms before.”
“I see.”
The man with the poker face nodded.
“So Cedric, do as I say.”
“Lamein, I’m not saying I won’t follow your will. I’m just asking for more sufficient reasons.”
Where is there a more sufficient reason than this?
Lamein’s eyes crinkled slowly.
“Today was the first day I learned that you were such a considerate person.”
In the end, the same words.
As expected, it was because of Lamein’s past actions.
The man in front of her might have had some ulterior motive, but there was nothing in particular she could say about it.
But she was angry.
She swallowed the breath she had been holding in her tightly closed mouth slowly, and slowly opened her mouth.
“Cedric. You might not understand.”
A resentful voice flowed out from between her small lips.
“What are you saying I don’t understand?”
“You, who have grown up eating warm food in a warm bed without any worries, you would never understand even if you died and came back to life.”
“….”
Male lead first thought she played hard to get, only to realize she
really disliked him

*
At first he thought she was just using the trick of feigning indifference to attract his attention. Later, he learned that she truly despised him.
