She's a Villainess but her Husband is Handsome (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 3
“My lady! Are you alright?”
Jane hurried over, horrified, clutching a handkerchief.
‘Why did my nose have to bleed right now?’
Even she thought it was absurd.
A person like me, utterly defenseless against handsome men.
‘But did I really have to get a nosebleed from both nostrils?’
……Where did that person who just called him unattractive disappear to?
Flushed with embarrassment after the initial visual shock, Lorraine’s face turned bright red.
“Blood… blood!”
“Give it here. I’ll do it.”
She quickly pressed the handkerchief Jane handed her against her nose.
‘Ah. Has my nosebleed already stopped?’
Only the blood that had already dripped stained the handkerchief—no more drops fell.
Lorraine, staring at the handkerchief, felt her eyelids twitch.
She sensed a gaze—sharp and piercing.
The blue eyes of her handsome husband, whom she’d just met today, were fixed precisely on the spot between her nose and upper lip.
‘Why is he staring like that?’
Her upper lip twitched reflexively, as if holes might open beneath her nose.
Her already flushed face began burning hotter.
“Oh dear! What should we do! It seems my lady has grown very weak from the poison!”
Jane’s worry-filled voice echoed through the quiet room.
……Please, let that man right in front of me believe that too.
Just as she awkwardly lowered her eyes with a brief sigh, she lifted them again—and her gaze met Cedric’s.
Damn it. Now that she looked again, he wasn’t just handsome—he was downright sexy.
To prevent another disastrous double nosebleed, she practically shoved the handkerchief deep into her nostrils.
Just as she was watching his reaction—
“Lorraine. The moment I heard you’d awakened, I rushed here immediately.”
……What nonsense is this?
Her husband, who had clearly finished all his tasks, now spoke as though overwhelmed with emotion.
‘……Wait. Why is he acting like this?’
Her slightly narrowed eyes twitched.
“You cannot possibly understand, my dear wife, just how heartbroken I’ve been.”
Like an opera singer on stage, the man dramatically spread his arms wide and stepped toward the bed as if about to embrace her.
Beneath his silk shirt, his chest looked so vast she wanted to run across it.
And that wasn’t all.
“Lorraine. No matter what I say, you simply won’t understand.”
With every word, the muscles on his chest visibly flexed right before her eyes.
‘Such pectorals should be protected by the state. Shouldn’t the medical staff develop a vaccine to keep those chest muscles from dying?’
Her professional instincts kicked in at the strangest moment.
Just as she unexpectedly found herself enthusiastically volunteering for national service—
“……Lorraine?”
His blue eyes pierced straight into hers, which had grown blank and vacant, as if her soul had been stolen.
‘Wait. This isn’t the time for that.’
This was the same man who, claiming profound heartbreak, had still managed to play with his knife, eat his meals, and even bathe.
‘So why is he acting like this now?’
After pondering Cedric’s odd behavior, she soon nodded to herself inwardly.
‘Right. We aren’t a normal married couple, after all.’
His gaze was so intense she nearly forgot what she knew and fell for it completely.
Lorraine shot a quick glance at Jane.
She concluded this was clearly a performance for someone else’s eyes.
Just as she barely suppressed an awkward smirk—
“Haaah……”
The man exhaled a sigh so deep it sounded like the earth collapsing, then stepped even closer.
He bent his upper body forward, arms outstretched.
‘What? Is he really going to hug me?’
When his shadow began covering half her face, she swallowed hard.
A faint, comforting lavender scent drifted toward her.
Through the gap in his unbuttoned shirt, his chest muscles tantalizingly peeked through.
Even his pectorals exuded noble grace—as if determined to prove he was aristocracy.
Her eyes wavered like leaves caught in a gust of wind.
Such intimate physical contact with a man she’d just met was deeply disconcerting.
‘Should I push him away? No… Do I really need to?’
He was her husband, even if they’d only met today.
‘Right. It’s just for show. Besides, when else would I get to be held by a man like him?’
Just as she resolved to let go of reason and instinct and simply go with the flow—
“No, no. My thoughts were too shallow.”
Suddenly, Cedric’s upper body swiftly pulled away.
“Though my heart aches to hold you, I fear you might shatter if I did.”
……Then why did I even make that resolution?
The man clearly never intended to embrace her from the start, now shook his head with a flimsy excuse.
“Boo hoo! Sob sob!”
That wasn’t Lorraine crying.
‘Why is she crying again…?’
Lorraine stared, dumbfounded, at Jane, who was dabbing tears with the handkerchief she’d pulled out to wipe Lorraine’s nosebleed.
“Haaah. Lorraine.”
Amid all this, Cedric let out another sigh, full of sorrow.
Lorraine, who had been staring blankly, felt her eyes twitch.
To any outside observer, the scene would look like this:
A husband, frantic over nearly losing his wife, now too overcome with tenderness to even hug her upon her waking—only sighing helplessly.
It would seem utterly heart-wrenching and beautiful.
‘What are you two even doing?’
According to the original story, this man would soon coldly throw her out of this mansion.
And here was her maid, gazing at him with tearful gratitude, completely unaware.
Watching them silently, Lorraine found herself utterly speechless.
‘Should I start crying too, just to fit in?’
She glanced bitterly between the two, then absentmindedly scratched her ear.
“My life without you is like a world stripped of all light.”
Then she looked at her husband—the leading actor worthy of an Academy Award—who gazed back with heartbreaking tenderness.
Cedric continued reciting lines so flowery they made her fingers curl:
Something about a single rose, a lonely poet blinded by lost love…
She was almost about to clap when Cedric glanced sideways at Jane.
“Jane.”
“Yes, my lord!”
As if he’d run out of melodrama to perform—
“I wish to be alone with Lorraine.”
He straightened his previously tearful, overly sensitive expression.
“Oh! How thoughtless of me! I’m so sorry!”
Jane, her eyes still glistening with emotion, gave a dramatic shrug of her shoulders.
“Then I shall take my leave right away!!”
Jane beamed brightly and hurried out of the room,
“…….”
“…….”
Leaving only the two of them—and an atmosphere entirely different from moments before.
A silence so thick even breathing sounded loud settled over the room.
Cedric’s burning gaze vanished entirely, replaced by sharp, piercing eyes like a drawn veil.
‘Is this the beginning?’
Lorraine tensed her eyelids.
She expected Cedric to start questioning her about the poisoning incident.
Perhaps after this moment, she might never lie in this cozy bed again.
Nor would she remain much longer as the wife of the handsome man before her.
She stared silently at the man who, according to the original plot, would coldly cast Lorraine out.
His blue eyes traced a line from her rounded forehead down through her eyes, nose, and lips—finally landing on her thighs beneath the blanket.
Lorraine followed her husband’s gaze downward.
Her eyes fell upon the blood-stained handkerchief where his stare had settled.
She must have dropped it while snorting dismissively during his ridiculous speech.
When she lifted her head, his serious yet keen blue eyes slowly tracked her own, then began scrutinizing every inch of her face.
‘What on earth is he going to say?’
Lorraine stared back without ever relaxing her guard.
He kept his lips firmly shut, saying nothing.
As the silence stretched, frustration began welling up—tension aside.
‘My lord… can’t you just say whatever you need to say already?’
Just as those words rose to the tip of her tongue—
His tightly closed lips finally parted.
“Are you feeling better?”
Surprisingly, he asked something she hadn’t expected.
But his tone clearly sounded like polite formality.
Then I shall respond in kind.
“Thanks to your concern for me.”
She recalled how he’d just been dramatically collapsing in worry over her—so she gave a reply fitting that performance.
Truthfully, aside from a lingering herbal taste in her mouth, she didn’t actually feel particularly unwell or weak—certainly better than when she used to sit in an ER corner.
“That’s truly fortunate, then.”
……Where did your soul go?
As expected, Cedric’s smooth lips curved lazily as he spoke in that utterly emotionless voice.
Ugh. She nearly groaned aloud again.
‘Haaah. Why did they have to make a person so unfairly dazzling?’
Nearly entranced by Cedric’s blindingly handsome appearance—which didn’t just steal words but erased thoughts entirely—she quickly snapped herself back to reality.
“Rest well today. We’ll have breakfast together tomorrow.”
He spoke as if about to leave the room.
‘Huh? What?’
Why wasn’t he asking anything at all?
Caught off guard by his unexpected behavior, Lorraine was bewildered.
Cedric, watching her, let a lazy smile play at the corners of his mouth.
‘Just as I anticipated.’
Having deeply fixed his gaze on her, Cedric straightened his expression.
“Then I shall take my leave.”
He turned his body lightly.
Or rather—he tried to.
“Cedric! Wait!”
Lorraine’s voice caught his ankle.
His large frame, already slightly turned, slowly pivoted back toward her. And then—
“Lorraine. Do you have something to say to me?”
His eyes, which had drifted away moments ago, locked onto hers again—bright and expectant, as if he’d been waiting.
“Yes. I do.”
“Is it about what happened today?”
His voice was smooth, his eyes languid yet brimming with poise.
Yet his blue eyes pierced straight through her, as if trying to see into her very soul.
She was an enigma.
Numerous small and large incidents had swirled around her before.
Whenever he’d questioned her about them, she’d neither confirmed nor denied anything.
It puzzled him.
She seemed utterly indifferent—even if all blame fell squarely on her.
Precisely because of that, he hadn’t dug deeper.
What on earth was she thinking?
He’d silently watched her all this time, never outright accusing her of orchestrating anything.
But this situation was different.
‘Did she act this way precisely because I showed no interest before?’
Her silence now—in the aftermath of a near-fatal incident—felt strangely suspicious.
He held his breath, watching as she prepared to speak first for the very first time.
Had everything that happened until now been part of her plan?
She’d always stood at the heart of every problem.
‘Let’s see what she says.’
His blue eyes, filled with both anticipation and suspicion, scrutinized her sharply—
“What happened today is somewhat related, but it doesn’t seem all that important. There’s a much bigger issue I need to discuss.”
……What?
Her words caught him completely off guard.
‘Today’s incident isn’t important? There’s a bigger problem? What on earth could she mean?’
For a moment, he stared at his wife with a dazed expression.
“Cedric.”
The person who’d claimed a “big problem” spoke in a voice so clear it was hard to believe.
……What?
Cedric’s eyes narrowed slightly.
‘Fine, her voice sounds pure—but why is her expression so bright?’
Just as he grew slightly flustered by his wife’s oddly cheerful demeanor—
“Let’s get a divorce.”
The words slipping from between her lips, tilted in a slight smile, were nothing less than—
“I can’t possibly go on living with a man like you.”
In other words—you are the problem.

Haha, you nailed it! Yes, well done, girl! You should stay away from someone like that. There’s so much mystery and suspicion surrounding the incidents that happened to her. I feel like there’s a conspiracy behind the scenes.
