I Don't Need A Husband
Chapter 64
“What?”
“If there is a woman you like, you should not let go. Isn’t Isilis stolen by me because you acted so gently?”
“You are very confident, Yes. Alright. Then, take care of Isilis at night and comfort her on your own.”
“I already saw it. I know what her condition is.”
“Seeing and feeling it are different.”
After that, Usman got up and turned around. Only he and Berthas knew that anger lingered in their steps.
“Your temper is still the same.”
Usman was unable to overcome his anger and went away from the place. Berthas was lost in thought at his attitude. What he said bothered him.
‘Isilis at night…’
Was there another side other than the one he saw with Usman last time? He was curious and guilt-ridden. He wanted to somehow deliver the news to Isilis that their child was well taken care of by him. At the same time, he felt resentful of Sir Dahan, who was lying down injured.
Suddenly, Berthas thought of Meryl.
“Where is the Imperial Family’s nanny?”
“She is in the Crown Princess’ room.”
“Guide me.”
Berthas gave the order when one of the ladies-in-waiting answered him. The lady-in-waiting hesitated at his words. Even the ladies-in-waiting knew. The person in front of them was the Princess’ real father and a man who might become Larchen’s consort.
Still, Usman Khalifa was still a benefactor to their Empress.
It didn’t matter which side they had to stand on, but the ladies-in-waiting wished the best for Usman and Isilis. After Berthas left, it was for this reason that Isilis acquired a mental illness.
Berthas, who read the hesitation on the ladies-in-waiting’s face, spoke again.
“Isilis and I have to deal with it ourselves. Aren’t you supposed to do your job? You must be well aware that personal feelings are not important to those who work in the Imperial Palace. Pretending not to see even if you can see it… it is an unwritten rule for those who work in the imperial palace to pretend not to hear even if they hear it. I’ll say it again. Guide me.”
The lady-in-waiting, alerted by Berthas’ words that contained a bit of warning, stepped out.
“I will guide you.”
Berthas realized as he slowly walked along with the lady-in-waiting.
He seemed to know now the source of Usman’s confidence. While he was away, he gained the trust of those at the Larchen Imperial Palace. Although he did not win Isilis’ heart, he won the hearts of those who served by her side, so that was why he was so confident.
‘…It’s useless if it’s not the person themselves.’
It was commendable that he dug around.
However, all decisions were made by Isilis. Those in the Imperial Palace were only her limbs. If not, they could be replaced at any time. He was feeling sorry for Usman Khalifa, who was confident that he had won their hearts.
The lady-in-waiting who was walking in front of him stopped and knocked on her door.
“Chief lady-in-waiting. Regent of Hillenton has arrived.”
“Tell him to come in.”
As Berthas stepped into the room, the child came into sight. She was with him every day, so he felt empty that she hadn’t been with him for several days.
As soon as the child saw Berthas, she cried bitterly.
Berthas smiled at the child after accepting her from Meryl, who was taken aback by the crying child. She was moved by the sight of the child falling asleep quickly, probably because she was comfortable in his arms.
The thought that there was at least one ally of his in this castle made him feel at ease.
“It seems that the Crown Princess was anxious.”
“Anxious?”
“She hasn’t been able to sleep well the past few days.”
“That’s possible. She has always slept with me, and now she’s not.”
“Have you always been together with her?”
“If something happens after leaving the child alone during wartime, where will I resolve the grudge?”
Meryl’s mouth fell shut at Berthas’ words. Berthas, who was looking at the child with tender eyes, turned to Meryl and asked.
“Did you say Sir Dahan was at your house?”
“He is in treatment.”
“Tell him to come to the palace.”
“When…”
“Right now.”
Meryl was trying to say something, but then she stopped. It was clear that she would not be able to say anything to Berthas now. At least, that was what she saw.
Berthas, who read her hesitation, asked her.
“What do you have to say?”
“He is said to have been poisoned by the desert, and he needs rest.”
“He is Hillenton’s knight and my limb. He has failed to obey my orders, so it is I who must punish him, and if he has something to say, it is I who must listen, so tell him to come.”
“Understood.”
“I’ll wait.”
“I have to take care of the Crown Princess now.”
“I will take care of the child, so go right away.”
As he would not listen to her, Meryl called another lady-in-waiting.
After giving instructions to the lady-in-waiting who entered the room at Meryl’s call, she greeted him and left the room. Berthas, who had entered the room and cast his gaze for a moment at the lady-in-waiting that was standing modestly by the door. He then turned his head back to the child.
Time passed, then the door opened, and Dahan entered, supported by Meryl.
“Your Excellency.”
“You’ve come. Sir. You are very late.”
“I couldn’t deliver Your Excellency’s order in time.”
“I heard the story. What happened?”
Meryl was taken aback as Berthas’ questioned a sick person quite coldly, but he didn’t care.
His messenger failed to deliver his correspondence in time and caused Isilis a mental illness. If only the letter had arrived on time, none of that would have happened to her. When was the last time he sent a letter?
He sent it right away after he had found the child away, so it was almost ten months. There was definitely a reason that Dahan still couldn’t come inside the palace.
“It has already been several months since I entered the capital of Larchen on Your Excellency’s orders.”
“Then?”
“I tried to find a way to enter the castle of Larchen, but it was difficult.”
Berthas listened to Dahan’s words that continued slowly. The reason why he couldn’t enter the Imperial Castle and that there were people who hindered him.
“The Khalifa empire?”
“That’s right. Their guard was tight.”
“I see.”
He finally understood. Usman Khalifa… it was his doing and what stood in the way between him and her.
“Your Excellency. It’s kind of strange.”
“What do you mean?”
“Is there something going on in the Khalifa Empire?”
It was a suspicion that Dahan, who did not know the relationship between Berthas, Isilis, and Usman, could raise. Seeing his subordinate’s face gradually turning white, Bertas suggested giving him a seat.
Sitting down on the chair, Dahan spoke again.
“Is that why you gave the letter to that woman?”
“It is, because it was difficult for me to enter Larchen’s Imperial Palace with an injured body.”
“Why do you believe in her?”
“I believed in the eyes that saw me.”
Returning a smile to Dahan, who smiled and said that with quite straight eyes, Berthas said to Meryl.
“I see. Good luck.”
“What?”
Asking what he was saying, Dahan looked at Meryl with a puzzled face. It didn’t look bad, as the tips of her ears turned red.
“An acquaintance of mine is the chief wizard of Larchen, so go and get treatment.”
“Understood.”
“Take Sir Dahan to Allure.”
“The chief wizard is busy.”
“If it’s my request, he’ll do it. If he says no, come back to me.”
There was no way Allure, who was afraid of the child, would refuse his request.
To Allure, Berthas was already Larchen’s consort. Allure sometimes had an expression that he didn’t want to admit, but he also vaguely sensed it that it was only a matter of time before Berthas stood by Isilis.
Allure, who watched Berthas’ tenacity to achieve what he wanted, could not imagine that he would let go of Isilis. It was fortunate that Isilis was unaware of his double facades.
Berthas, who watched the two of them go outside, went to the child’s side. The comfortable breath from the child made him feel at ease.
“My daughter.”
Berthas whispered as he squeezed the tiny hand.
“Me and Isilis’ daughter.”
The child didn’t have a name yet. If he named the child by himself, he feared that Isilis would be disappointed, knowing that time had passed, but she could not even name her.
“I’ll give you everything. In your hands.”
“Even if you don’t, I will.”
Isilis came in and said so. Hearing Berthas’ whisper, she came towards him.
“Where is Meryl?”
“I told her to go somewhere because I had something for her to do.”
“I see.”
He laughed as he watched Isilis respond casually to his words. Look, she has already opened up to him. Even though it was clear that his actions had gone too far, Isilis gave no words. It was proof that she recognized Berthas to some extent.
“Are you done with work?”
“There is still some left.”
He could tell without saying that she had come to see the child. Coming close to the child, she gently placed her finger on the child’s soft cheek.
“Are you okay?”
“I still dream of the child disappearing.”
“That won’t happen.”
“Is it really so?”
“If that happens, I will do my best to protect the child.”
Isilis’ gaze shifted from her child to him.
“I will protect you and the child, so you don’t have to worry about anything.”
“Why don’t you go now?”
“My place is by your side.”
“Berthas.”
“So Isilis, give me your side.”
“Berthas Hillenton.”
“Accept me so that I can end my life by your side.”
“You…”
“My body and mind are all yours.”
Berthas’ last words ring in Isilis’ ears.
“What do you want me to do?”
“Are you asking me for an answer that has already been decided?”
With his words, Isilis closed her eyes. She thought for a moment before whispering to him.
“But Berthas. I don’t like being dragged around.”
“No way.”
“Is it not?”
“Of course. I can’t help but lose to you, Isilis.”
“Is it really like that?”
“Of course.”
“Then, prove it.”
“What?”
“Prove that you deserve to be by my side.”
“Only your heart will know that.”
“I don’t even know how I feel.”
“Don’t worry.”

As she lowered her eyes as if she really didn’t know, he gazed into her as he lifted her face. Berthas smiled and whispered at her as the ultramarine blue eyes framed his face.
“I know.”
