“I’m not sure yet, but I think that might be the case.”
The duchess spoke in an excited voice.
……Then the child’s father wouldn’t be me.
“Hmm. Mother?”
Cedric called the duchess with a calm voice.
“Yes, Cedric. Speak.”
He slowly swallowed his breath, looking at his mother, who wore a pleased expression.
“Why do you suddenly think so? May I ask?”
“Just a while ago, I took a walk with Lamein. But suddenly, Lamein heaved as if she were nauseous several times.”
……What should I say?
He cautiously observed his mother, who spoke with a very serious face.
Cedric knew that his mother was eagerly waiting for an heir.
Since marrying Lamein, he was served with foods beneficial for a man’s body heavily on his dining table, starting a week before their joint day.
Not only that, but he knew that Lamein was also regularly taken care of with teas and foods good for her body.
‘What to do. She’ll be disappointed?’
Cedric, curling one side of his lips, locked eyes with his mother.
It seemed like his mother would be too disappointed if he said it was absolutely not so.
Pondering, Cedric slowly opened his mouth.
“Mother. It hasn’t been confirmed yet, so for now…….”
“Yes, I know. But I thought you should know, so I called you.”
The lady interrupted, wearing a calm expression as if she had never been excited.
“The doctor will be here soon, so we can confirm the fact.”
“…….”
“Even if it’s not so, let’s be careful not to disappoint Lamein.”
The person most likely to be disappointed began to worry about Lamein.
“Yes, Mother. I’ll go see Lamein then.”
“Yes, Lamein must be surprised, so you go and take good care of her.”
Cedric, wearing a tender smile, headed for Lamein’s room.
.
.
.
Knock knock.
Lamein, who had been lying in bed, sat up at the sound of the knock.
The door opened.
“Are you feeling okay?”
Cedric entered with an expression not showing the slightest concern.
“Yes, as you can see.”
Lamein slightly spread her arms and shrugged her shoulders.
“I just saw Mother on my way here.”
That meant he had heard everything.
“Has the doctor left?”
“Yes, he left just a while ago.”
“What did the doctor say?”
“Mother will be disappointed.”
Cedric nodded as if he understood.
“You heaved?”
“Yes.”
“I thought you ate a little too much this morning.”
Ah. That person, really.
……He noticed again.
Actually, she did eat a little too much.
So she had suspected that her heaving was related to her overindulgence.
“It might be best to eat moderately in the morning.”
He pointed it out precisely.
Slyly glancing, then Cedric came closer to the bed. And.
“Take this.”
He put down a small bottle on the bedside table.
Inside the transparent glass bottle were small pills.
“Medicine……is it?”
“Yes. That’s right.”
Lamein quickly reached out and grabbed the glass bottle.
“Where did you get this?”
“Arend gave it to me a while ago. He said it’s a digestion aid.”
“Ah, I see.”
Lamein examined the glass bottle in her hand.
“Why? Is something wrong?”
“No. I just heard it’s quite expensive.”
“It’s expensive and also hard to get. That’s the last one left.”
Lamein slowly turned her head and looked at Cedric.
“Here, take it.”
She then stretched the glass bottle out to him.
“…….”
Cedric’s eyes went back and forth between her face and the glass bottle.
“I’m not sick enough to need the medicine. Keep it for when you’re ill.”
Knowing full well that it was not only expensive but also hard to get.
Frankly, she had only heaved, and it didn’t feel like indigestion.
She tried to give it back with her best judgment, but.
“Is there a reason you won’t take the medicine?”
Her husband asks in an unnecessarily condescending tone.
Why does she need a reason if she’s not sick enough to take medicine?
Are you sure this isn’t poison?
“……Yes? What reason?”
When Lamein looked at him suspiciously and asked back.
“Ah. No, it’s nothing.”
Suddenly, her husband answered lightly with a faint smile.
“You have the medicine; use it when you need it.”
“Yes, I will do that.”
She quickly lowered her hand, which was raised in the air, fearing her husband would raise his voice again if she refused.
“I have a meeting with the knights today, so I will be briefly visiting the palace.”
He informed her of his plans for the day, then,
“Lamein, do you have any plans to go out today?”
He asked about her schedule, something he usually didn’t show interest in.
“I was thinking of going out for a while this afternoon. I’m still thinking about it.”
“Where were you planning to go?”
“I wanted to look at some shoes.”
“Shoes?”
“Yes.”
“Don’t you have enough shoes?”
Lamein blinked her eyes quickly.
“The shoes I’ve been wearing all have high heels, so I want to buy some with lower heels.”
“Are you going out with Jane?”
“Yes.”
“Do you have any other plans?”
“Not yet.”
It seemed more persistent than usual, not just a feeling.
“……Cedric?”
“Yes, my lady.”
“What’s with you today?”
“What do you mean?”
Her husband, with slightly widened eyes, looked at her as if to ask what was wrong.
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~
