Chapter 2: 2

~ Chapter 2 ~

Catherine, who regained her consciousness after recollecting her past memories, exhaled heavily. She became so exhausted even though what she only did was to reminisce.

‘I should had just made my wish precisely.’

I wished I had returned to the time before I encountered Hyugo, but it was unfortunately after we got married. She returned right after their first night.

But where did she got her second life? Catherine affirmed and accepted when she returned back time.

There was no time to be surprised.

And yes, what she did after returning was to ask for divorce, as to not repeat their malicious first life.

It was the third day of their marriage.

– Let’s get a divorce.

Divorce was the only choice to save Hyugo and herself.

Hyugo was strangely calm amidst her sudden request.

I think I saw his eyes shaking for a moment, but I regarded it as something I saw wrong.

Ever since then, Catherine has never once regretted her decision to use her holy necklace, or getting a divorce.

‘The side effects which my mother said did not occur.’

Catherine came straight to the Capital after her divorce.

With the returned dowry, which she once gave to Hyugo, she bought a big mansion and give rooms to the ladies who debuted in the social world.

There was a reason why Catherine divorced in a hurry and spent most of her dowry on buying a house.

This was due to her fear of what might Countess Bedwigo will do, if her divorce was announced.

They must have prevented their divorce or steal her dowry.

Catherine was able to win divorce and the capital’s mansion by not giving her a chance.

After settling in the capital, Catherine planned to collect holy water by carrying out the mission of the clan in earnest.

Because I have a wish left to make.

‘I’ll make up for the Hyugo’s life which I ruined, properly.’

And four years after returning, Catherine’s business was in already full swing. Thanks to this, the completion of the holy relic is nearing.

I can’t believe I’m meeting Lillie at a time like this.

Catherine hesitated momentarily.

Will she be able to sincerely support and conclude Lillie’s love this time around?

Even if she put her personal feelings away, it was clear that she would have great difficultly considering what Lillie’s did in the past.

‘The more difficult it is for a couple to form, the faster the essence gather, however…’

Can I make Lillie, who is obsessed with Hyugo, fall in love with someone else?

‘If possible, there’s nothing better than this.’

In fact, there was a time when half of the heart pendant was filled by concluding a marriage between enemy families.

Catherine stopped reviewing the documents for a while and recalled Hyugo.

I heard that Hyugo, who fought in the war, recently returned to his territory. But I don’t know when he’ll go to war again.

His estate was poor, so he had to make money by running a mercenary group.

Hyugo did not own the mercenaries from the beginning.

Initially, he was conscripted as a commander and led about 50 multinational mercenaries.

Leading a mercenary group composed of people from various countries was very difficult.

Basically, he had to be able to speak all kinds of foreign languages, and he had to have the charisma to dominate the mercenaries he had gone through.

In addition, in the battlefield, skills, not acts, are a measure of loyalty. Naturally, he had to be outstanding in order to lead the mercenary corps.

Hyugo grabbed them at once. The number of mercenaries following him quickly increased from 50 to 200.

Later, they moved along Hyugo without signing a contract with the kingdom.

“Crow mercenaries.”

Catherine’s lips moved.

Any country that fought war welcomed Hyugo’s mercenaries with open arms. One hundred per person, small in size, but they were never defeated once.

‘Thanks to you, I started living in solitude.’

Catherine swept her face with her dry hands. In the past, I thought he only went to war because he liked it…

‘Not when I learned the truth behind it.’

No matter how skilled he is, how healthy he is, even as a Commander, death in Battlefield is unavoidable thing.

And no matter how much he like the battlefield, is it as good as a warm bed?

Yeah, for Hyugo.

Catherine decided to take the chance.

Catherine fiddled with the pendant, the essence of love.

Catherine hated Lillie to the core, but she didn’t want her to be unhappy either.

This is because Catherine has also loved. Even if I didn’t understand her behavior, I couldn’t hate her with all my heart.

So if she’d dating someone other than Hugo, I can help.

‘If I leave Lily alone, she might bother Hyugo again.’

Hyugo was very troubled by Lillie in the past.

Unlike Lillie who has many stalkers, Catherine only did what she could. She sent letters on the battlefield and sometimes popped up where Hyugo was.

‘In retrospect, Hyugo has a keen eyes.’

Lillie was undeniably pretty. While Catherine has an unappealing look. Lillie’s family was knowledge and was also good.

‘But my actions didn’t shake him. He didn’t even love me.’

Catherine smiled bitterly. At one time, I thought Hyugo might like me. However, after knowing the truth, that absurd thought was quickly erased.

‘Because of me, he rolled on the battlefield with a slave contract with Countess Bedwigo, but he couldn’t have liked me.‘

It was a hopeless thought until after I became an adult.

‘It must had been because of their promise. He pushed Lillie away.‘

Marriage is a kind of promise.

Seeing that I gave money to Count Bedwigo without hearing good things for 10 years made me feel plausible.

‘What am I thinking about right now?’

Catherine was surprised while thinking. I was thinking about Hyugo all day long, which I had never done before.

This was all because of Lillie. Catherine shook her head and shook off her thoughts.

Introducing Lillie to others is for both Hugo and Lillie.

“Let’s reduce the number of years to one year.”

Shaking the essence of love she had collected, Catherine confirmed Lillie as one of the resident of Catherine House.

***

Catherine, whose head became complicated after deciding to move into Lillie, went out on the pretext of buying moon curtains in the tenants’ rooms.

Butler Elbert immediately prepared a carriage for her.

Catherine’s pleasure was to decorate her room and design her mansion whenever new tenants came.

After lunch, until the afternoon, Catherine went shopping the whole time.

‘Should I stop here today?’

Yuri, the maid who followed her with a lot of luggage, didn’t look good.

She laughed as if it was okay when I made eye contact with her, but her running sweat from her forehead was not hidden.

“Let’s go back home.”

“Please don’t look at it more.”

Catherine smiled lightly at Yuri, who said something she didn’t mean.

“Call the carriage.”

Yuri went to call the carriage like an arrow.

The carriage arrived quickly. As soon as Catherine got on the wagon, they began travelling back smoothly.

Catherine fell into thought while maintaining an upright posture even if the wagon shook.

The role of messenger of love surprisingly had a lot to pay attention to.

“Master.”

Yuri talked to Catherine.

“The carriage had stopped.”

Catherine raised her head after hearing her. As Yuri said, the wagon stopped.

“What happened?”

“I’ll go out!”

Instead of opening the window connected to the driver, Yuri moved out directly. In any case, my body fluttered.

“Someone must be moving in. It’d take us a long time to get out of the carriage.”

Yuri, who had been outside, grumbled.

“Moving in?”

Catherine pulled her head out of the window and checked outside. A wagon full of moving luggage was blocking the street.

“It’s near my house.”

“Yes. I think it’ll take a long time.”

Yuri criticized the rude landlord, saying he blocked everything without thinking, resulting for them to wait a long time.

“He must have a lot of luggage. Let’s just walk.”

Catherine readily got up and opened the carriage door. The driver came quickly and installed the footrest. Yuri placed a parasol over Catherine’s head as she got down.

“That person must not have a conscience, Yuri.”

The wagon could not pass, but there was a space for the two to walk side by side.

Catherine skimmed through the carriage. As she expected, there was a lot of luggage.

Most of them were carriages at the top. The landlord seems to have changed the furniture completely because he was moving.

‘He must be a rich person. Housing prices must be quite high during the social season, but he even bought furniture.’

Housing prices in the social season’s capital soared without knowing that they had increased dramatically.

In particular, residential areas with Catherine House were famous for their high housing prices in the capital.

“Oh, master! There was a crest glued on the carriage!”

Suddenly, Yuri made a fuss. The shadow above my head shook.

Catherine looked at the carriage that Yuri pointed to. The carriage was engraved with a sentence that was very familiar to Catherine.

Shields and knives, and lions with their front feet in front of them.

“Ah…”

Catherine’s series of wistful groans burst.

“It’s a crest from the Edward family.”

“… Yeah, it’s the Edward family.”

Catherine’s heart shook like a ship that met the storm.

Yuri pulled her head out like a turtle and looked around. I knew who she was looking for.

Catherine walked fast. And I made a foolish wish.

I hope it’s not Hyugo.

If she was right, at least not next door to her.

But her wish was unfortunately smashed in front of Catherine House.

Catherine found a man who looked at the luggage entering the house right next door and the workers carrying it.

A man who caught people’s eyes everywhere he goes, stood out too much that one couldn’t help, but to stare at him.

Catherine’s footsteps stopped. She said she shouldn’t see him, but she couldn’t stop her eyes from flowing to him.

Hyugo raised his head as if he felt Catherine’s gaze.

At that moment, their eyes met.

Catherine instinctively stopped breathing.

Dark hair that makes my eyes faint, golden eyes which sparkle too much, abundant and long eyebrows and a sharp nose. His body that is firm enough to make your white skin weak.

Hyugo Edward.

Having divorced because she loved him too much, and then he moved next door.
