Chapter 12: 12

Iris was proud to have grown up in the north. She was overconfident that this much would be okay because she had three months of experience of wandering around in the north.

However, she had never stepped out of the convent until she was 19, and she was originally weak because Celios digested the poison given by the king during her pregnancy.

With the help of the servants, she was washed with warm water and laid down in a room full of firewood in the fireplace, but she already had a severe high fever.

“Ugh, it’s strange that a guest suddenly came in, but she’s also a sick person.”

“I know. Her body looks weak, but how could she get so wet with such confidence…”

She could hear what they were saying next to her very well.

Is it okay to be so mean in front of a person?

Iris was resentful, but she had no choice but to take it calmly because she was so warm.

In any case, she survived and got here.

The way she came was not really a road. Sid would come along the road that had been made, so he would not arrive at the Asheri estate until lunchtime today.

Iris knew how Ritero would react when Sid would come to greet at the annex.

Having heard of the Asheri family from Hayer, she could speculate to some degree.

Unless Sid asks his grandfather if he has seen Iris, Ritero won’t talk about her visit.

But if Sid asks about her, it’s obvious he won’t hide it.

Six years ago, before crossing the North Gate, when Iris was forcibly dragged by Sid’s hands from the convent and headed to the capital, she stayed with the Asheri family.

However, at that time, she clearly remembered staying in the main building, not the annex.

At that time, they had a luncheon and listened to the report. Hayer Asheri will arrive by evening. It seemed that the message he sent had arrived.

Sid didn’t like his brother, so he left for the capital immediately, even though he could have met Hayer after another day’s stay.

Iris met Hayer a month later, while preparing for the wedding.

Iris wanted to stay as alert as possible, but the fever kept her from lifting a finger until Sid arrived.

Then, when she heard the sound of a horse’s hooves, she got up and looked out of the window.

Sid was just stopping in front of the annex to greet his grandfather.

Iris took a hot breath and went into the adjoined room with the maid.

Annie asked, puzzled.

“What are you doing here?”

“Can you hide me?”

“…Hide you?”

While Annie was asking back, the butler’s voice was heard outside.

“Master Sid is here, please come out to say hello.”

At that, Annie looked at Iris with eyes full of suspicion.

Iris said to her disbelieving gaze.

“Right, you don’t have to hide me. Instead… Can you tell the head one thing?”

“Ah, really…”

It was clear Annie didn’t want to overdo anything, but she was weak and asked Iris curtly, whose face was white as if she were about to die.

“What is it?”

“Tell him Lord Hayer is sick.”

“…Is that possible?”

Annie put on an absurd look. He did look strong, as if all the diseases in the world could be avoided.

Iris continued.

“You can check it out in a day. You can hand me back to Sid after that, so just give me this. I can cure it.”

“…….”

“My life is at stake.”

Annie looked at her with narrowed eyes, then covered her with a blanket and said,

“Stay here for now.”

Iris nodded and wrapped herself in the blanket. Her body was cold and hot. It was a fever to the point of delirium.

“…have to live.”

Iris murmured to herself.

She burned her will to live somehow, but it was really not easy. From now on, she had no choice but to leave it to fate.

Asheri’s maid, Annie, was in a very uncomfortable state.

She started working as a maid at the age of 13, and by the time she turned 20, she had a firm rule. Never, no matter what, never intervene in the problems that arise in the owner’s family.

Therefore, she had no desire to listen to Iris. It was because it was obvious that she would only get hurt if she intervened for no reason.

“Ahh, gosh.”

In the end, however, Annie moved toward Ritero Asheri. It was because of the lady who said her life was at stake with a dying face.

With such a coy face, her eyes resembled a deer’s.

She was putting her head in the lion’s mouth because of a noble lady who she didn’t even know, and she felt numb for some reason.

Annie eventually ran to Ritero, who was walking slowly to greet his grandson.

“Master, that…”

Since the servants rarely talked to him first, Ritero motioned for her to come closer to him, knowing that there was a message from Iris.

Annie said.

“I don’t know what she meant, but she says Master Hayer is sick. She knows the cure.”

“Hmm.”

Ritero did not reply, nod or shake his head.

However, as soon as he whispered to the butler in charge, it seemed that he was trying to send a message to Hayer to check.

After the delivery, Annie pressed her chest with both hands because her heart was beating fast. Even if it was a person she was seeing for the first time, she had no choice but to help because her life was at stake anyway. Then she ran to the door to greet with the other servants.

Iris, who was left in the adjoined room, touched her forehead with her hand.

Her hands were hot and her forehead was hot, so she couldn’t tell if her body was hot or not.

After the greeting, it was time to return to the main building and start the luncheon, but seeing that no one barged in, it seemed to have passed safely.

Iris shivered in the unheated adjoined room until the afternoon, and then withstood it for another hour at 4pm, when Sid was sure to have left after the luncheon. It was a fever that made it painful to even take one step.

Iris managed to get to the fireplace and collapsed on the carpet. She thought she’d really die this time.

‘What will happen if I die in Asheri?’

She tried to figure it out, but she didn’t have the strength to lift a finger, so she didn’t have the strength to think with her head.

It was when she was praying that if she was born again, she would be born with a strong body like iron, no matter what, like Hayer Asheri.

Her body felt light, and she heard a low voice.

“No matter how uninvited she is, why did you leave the guest on the floor?”

“Are you throwing it away? She came on her own feet.”

“What if this lady dies?”

Ah. A familiar voice.

Iris opened her eyes desperately. A man as beautiful as the sun slowly flowed into her field of vision.

A man, who is younger than the 25-year-old she remembers, and whose expression is confident because Luwan has not yet been on the defensive.

Her first love that she was with only once in her life.

Hayer Asheri was here.

Hayer put Iris in a chair for a moment, then lifted the bed and moved it to the fireplace. After putting her back on the bed, he made all the servants leave.

Iris looked at Hayer, breathing as if she was about to break.

He bent down towards the bed with one hand.

Hayer said in a rather cold voice.

“Do you know about my injury?”

He had orange eyes that made the viewer feel refreshed, but he was also a man with such a strong energy that if he frowned, the atmosphere around him would suddenly sink.

Iris tried to adapt to him, the fact that she was a strange woman he met for the first time.

He knew that someone he had never met knew his biggest weakness, so he couldn’t greet her as warmly as he did in her memories.

Even though she knew it in her head, her affection flowed into her heart and she couldn’t control her expression at will.

Iris had no choice but to harden her face until it looked artificial. Then, she groaned in agony and closed her eyes.

She tried to talk about the North Gate, but no sound came out of her mouth.

It was something that she noticed shortly after the regression. Perhaps even if she knew about the future, she could not divulge it to others.
