Chapter 98: 98

After Story 1. Honeymoon (1)

Evanstein Verdick was so happy. His own lovely sister, no, now his wife, Aristasia Verdick sat next to him. And it couldn’t be more perfect without the damned Leonhardt Verdick that had always been here.

“Aris.”

“Yes?”

“…….”

“What’s wrong?”

Aristasha called and looked at him puzzledly without saying a word. Evan just liked the name ‘Aris’ that he spoke in his voice, and the eyes that captured her image when he called that name.

“I like this.”

He couldn’t capture all of these overwhelming emotions, so he could only say ‘I like this.’. How was he supposed to express these indescribably complex emotions? Still, Aris replied as if she knew his heart.

“Me too.”

A beautiful smile hung on Aris’s face. Evan thought it was good to leave Leonhardt as well. On the surface, it was the marriage of Evanstein Verdick and Aristasia Foneta. So Leonhard couldn’t come with them.

“Leon also wanted to go south…… I’m sorry for him, what to do?”

“It’s fine. Leon has work to do while staying in the capital, so he’ll do his best so that he can go separately later.”

“That’s a relief.”

Aris’ expression became more relaxed. Evan looked at her and smiled with ease.

How much effort did he put into leaving behind Leon? He had made numerous plans so that Leon would not come after him, even if it was late. He decided to make his honeymoon destination far from the capital, to the southern ‘island’ owned by the Duchy Verdick. Because of that, Evan had to do everything right in order to save nearly three weeks from the time the wedding was held and to travel to the destination and for Aris to rest and come back.

And on the eve of his wedding, he also did not forget to warn his lieutenants.

“If there is something really urgent, you can find me. But if it’s not urgent…….”

Evan’s lieutenants knew that they had to put their heads down, even if Evan didn’t talk about it. Somehow, it was unusual to see him care for his sister, Aristasia, who is now the Duchess ever since she was Lady Verdick.

But no matter who, to marry Lady Verdick, they have to cross the rugged mountain called Evanstein Verdick and the vast sea called Leonhardt Verdick.

Moreover, when the article that Aris wasn’t a Verdick came out, people were not upset but were somehow happy, but as soon as Duke Verdick announced his marriage to Aris, everything seemed to fit together.

Duke Evanstein Verdick that they knew would make it possible enough to make Aris a stranger on paper to make her his, even if Aris was his real sister.

For this reason, some of the lieutenants thought that the paternity test result might have been tampered with. But they didn’t dare say it out loud because their life was precious.

In fact, it was one of the plans Evan had planned to make Aris his , so it wasn’t a very wrong prediction.

“I’ll have Leonhard Verdick as my representative, so if you have an urgent need, find him.”

No one thought that Commander Leonhard, who had wielded a sword all his life, would be able to replace Duke Evanstein Verdick. It meant that if there was an urgent matter that could not be solved without Duke Verdick, it could be solved by killing the problematic subject.

They were also told to hold on to Leonhard Verdick no matter what. They were the lieutenants who could not be unaware of the fighting between the brothers. This is because they were the ones who were responsible for sending Leonhard Verdick to the battlefield before.

That wasn’t enough. Evan feared Leon would follow, so he left a mountain of work to do in the capital. The huge amount would take a month. And even when the job was done, he had no worries, as his capable lieutenants would keep Leon in custody with all their heart and soul.

At least, during this honeymoon, he wanted to monopolize Aris. Because she’s married not to two people, Evan and Leon, but to Evanstein Verdick.

Thanks to such efforts, he was able to enjoy alone time on the island without any disturbance.

Aris was quietly watching the well-maintained garden and the sea facing the sky in the distance. Evan looked at her, and just smiled happily.

“What were you thinking of?”

Evan took her into his arms, put her on his lap and looked into her eyes. He seemed worried because Aris had lost her words. He was worried that she might be in a bad mood. But when Aris said she was simply thinking of Evan, he grinned.

“Brother.”

“Yes?”

“I was thinking of you, Brother.”

Aris kissed Evan’s lips. Evan’s lips rose up immediately. And he kissed her more deeply than she did. Evan, who had kissed her several times, put his forehead to Aris.

“Brother, where is Brother here?”

“Oh! Uh, um, Evan.”

Aris blushed and called Evan’s name. She has called him ‘Brother’ all her life, so the name ‘Brother’ is more familiar to her, so he unintentionally called him that way. But he was no longer her brother. They already held the wedding ceremony too. In front of other nobles, it was necessary to be careful not to make the mistake of calling Evan ‘brother’.

“Yes, well done. What do you mean brother? Am I still like your brother?”

Aris now no longer had blood-relatives anymore. Because her biological father, Gehrig, is dead. But Aris did not feel sorry at all. Instead of a blood relative, there was her husband, Evanstein Verdick, who loved only her, and Leonhard Verdick, who loved only her as well.

“No, Evan. You are now my husband.”

Aris smiled bashfully, she was so lovable that Evan couldn’t stand it. Evan really tried to end it with her kiss. However, his feeble patience was helplessly broken by the gentle voice calling his name, the soft lips, the act of sucking his lips with a weak force, and her moist tongue licking his lips.
