After saying that, Meldenique left.
Lennox frowned as he watched Meldenique depart.
It was strange. In his eyes, Meldenique Vaveloa seemed like a completely different person.
He recalled Meldenique’s sister, Sheria, his business contractor, and the one who constantly catches his eye.
Not long ago at the resort, Sheria sent a letter full of love.
At the end of the affectionate letter, it was said that Meldenique left the family and asked him to settle his engagement with her.
‘Sheria is a beautiful woman, but……’
He bit the inside of his mouth to get back to his senses.
‘I can’t give up on Meldenique Vaveloa.’
His eyes were black, glistening with intense light.
He remembered the words ‘You must marry Meldenique Vaveloa‘ that was in his father’s will.
There was even an explanation that would make one’s eyes open wide.
‘If I marry her……’
He smiled as he thought of his perfect future.
His confusing thoughts soon subsided.
‘I must make Meldenique Vaveloa mine. Then everything will be perfect.’
Of course, he had no interest in Meldenique.
She was just a bothersome woman, and it was obvious that he favored Sheria. Sheria was a beautiful and innocent woman. She was ideal for him.
Lennox smiled as he clenched his mouth.
Not long ago, it felt satisfying that his relationship with Sheria spread like the New Year holidays in the social world.
No one knew that Sheria and Lennox were in that kind of relationship, but everyone said that they looked good together and cheered them on.
It was a satisfying routine.
If Meldenique hadn’t suddenly demanded a break-up, everything would have gone as planned.
He hadn’t imagined that Meldenique would do this, having noticed that his heart was leaning towards Sheria.
‘A break up.’
But his love affair with Sheria and his marriage with Meldenique are different matters.
He was going to push ahead with his marriage with Meldenique anyway.
‘She’s just trying to get my attention.’
But Meldenique, who thought that way, was foolish. He was by no means an easy opponent.
The Duke’s eyes narrowed as he looked at Meldenique’s back leaving briskly.
‘You‘re acting unusually out of jealousy this time, but I have no intention of stopping you.’
Lennox tried to keep his eyes off of her.
However, he couldn’t. Meldenique turned around again and looked at him.
He laughed sarcastically inside.
I knew it.
Meldenique Vaveloa could never abandon him.
She was a woman who had gone on all sorts of journeys and business for him. Such a woman couldn’t change so suddenly.
‘You’ve been trained to only listen to me. You can’t betray me.’
He looked cynically at Meldenique, who walked back toward him.
It was a ruse to forgive his fiancée who dared to deceive him. Of course, forgiveness was only once.
Meldenique talked while walking towards him.
“Now that I think about it, there’s something I forgot to mention.”
At Meldenique’s gentle words, Lennox spoke in a cold voice.
“I don’t need an apology.”
Meldenique gave him a big smile, listening to him.
“An apology?”
The Duke, who was looking at her, hesitated for a moment.
Did she ever make that sort of face when begging for forgiveness?
I think I’ve only seen her face either usually depressed or sobbing.
But it will change eventually, meeting his expectations.
He stared at Meldenique and waited leisurely for words to come out of her mouth.
***
Apology my ass!
I frowned at the man who would be the male lead and my ex-fiancé, who seemed to expect an apology from me.
‘If he’s really the male lead, this novel is ruined. Therefore, I will go on my own road.’
I took a step closer to him.
Now the distance between us is less than 30 centimeters. It’s the first time I’ve ever come this close. He must’ve gotten flustered.
There was still only a languid smile on his face. It was definitely a poker face.
But he frowned when he heard what I said.
However, I wasn’t interested in his expressions.
“You don’t possibly think that my actions are an ‘attract attention’ plan, do you……?”
“……?”
His eyebrows furrowed again.
I grinned and spoke again.
“Thinking that ‘Still, she’s a fool, so if you catch her, she’s caught. She’s a wooden doll after all.’”
“What?”
He asked back in a dazed voice.
As if I read his mind, I clicked my tongue as I looked at him.
The male protagonist doesn’t know the reader’s mind, but the reader knows his mind very well.
In romance fantasy novels, there aren’t only one or two main characters who cry when the woman they had been ignoring break the engagement.
Or there are many crazy ones who suddenly turn their eyes and say, “I’ll never give up!’ without affection.
So I was going to prevent him from catching me.
Of course, I’m not one of the heroines, so that won’t happen.
‘But there’s one thing.’
Lennox’s interest in me is shameful.
Whether it’s his belated regret or his useless obsession, I will not accept it!
I raised one corner of my mouth and came back at him perfectly.
“That’s your delusion.”
He glared at me while trembling.
“……did you find a new man? Did you cheat on me?”
Ah, is this what all men are like?
He’s the one that’s been having an affair like a despicable man.
I closed off my ears.
“Do you think someone other than myself will like you?”
It’s the gaslighting he’s been doing every time again and again.
Of course I don’t intend to answer him properly.
“To tell you the truth.”
I raised my finger and roughly pointed to a spot beyond his back.
There was someone behind him.
“I’d rather marry that passer-by over there than marry you.”
He knew very well that I pointed to someone random.
Lennox’s face was red as blood.
“You dare……”
He was grinding his teeth as he had been hit by the ax he had been neglecting.
But it’s too early to be pissed off with just this. I mean, it’s not over yet.
A stronger finale was needed.
“I’m sure you’ve understood at this point.”
Lastly, I smiled at him as bright as the sunshine.
“Now, will you please get lost and get out of my life?”
Let’s not approach me anymore on the subject of an affair.
“You’re dirty.”
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
After saying that, Meldenique left.
