Chapter 20: Raising my Fiancè with Money Chap

Sign Now

Lilia, who sent the bouquet to the incinerator, wrote a reply to Richard to visit her in person. The next day, a representative for Richard came from the Tersian mansion.

As if having so much to say, the representative kept talking nonsense.

Putting it all together, the only conclusion that could be reached was that Richard could not come to Count Bloden’s mansion.

Lilia knew that Richard was reluctant to visit the Bloden residence.

It was because he showed signs of discomfort the whole time when he was in the mansion after coming once before.

Since then, he would come up with every excuse to not come whenever she invited him to her house.

In fact, Lilia didn’t want to bring Richard to her home either. It was quite bitter to just sit down and give orders, so I asked him to come in person.

“Then set a date and tell him to meet me outside.”

Either way, they had to meet properly at least once to get his consent to break up.

Since she did not intend to bend to his wishes, they informed her that they would meet outside as a compromise.

Richard accepted Lilia’s offer and…

Finally, the day of the appointment came.

Lilia finished her preparations perfectly.

She wanted to show him a more perfect figure after they had broken up. Lilia left the bedroom and went down to the front door.

Franchse and Malik, who were waiting in front of the front door, greeted her.

When Malik opened the carriage door, Lilia said, as she stepped on the simple stairs.

“If he tries to do something to me today, I’ll be fine.”

Franchse’s eyes flashed.

Then the sound of reins being released from the horse could be heard. Still, there should be a form of insurance.

They didn’t know what would happen after the two of them met for no reason.

And ever since witnessing the scene where Richard was having an affair, this was the first time that the two of them had a proper conversation.

She needed to prepare her mind.

While lost in thought, before she knew it, the carriage had already arrived at the meeting place.

As she was getting off the wagon, she found Richard getting off the wagon across from her.

“Lilia…!”

When their eyes met, Richard ran over towards her quickly.

He glanced over Lilia lightly and said.

“You look prettier today than last time?”

When Lilia didn’t answer back, Richard looked around. It seemed as if he was checking whether Karhan was with her.

After confirming that he was not there, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Franchse and Malik, who were standing behind Lilia, stepped forward. When two people stared at him at the same time, Richard flinched.

“Let’s go inside for now.”

Lilia walked and entered the tea shop first.

When Richard followed in, Lilia picked up the menu that had been on the counter before she settled down on her seat.

“A cup of milk tea, please. Here is payment in advance, would this be alright?

After paying the bill in advance, Lilia immediately turned her back.

Richard looked back at Lilia with embarrassed eyes.

The payment was always up to Lilia.

It was as natural as if it was a law established between the two.

But she didn’t ask for his, and she just paid the bill for her own.

When Lilia was completely settled in, Richard hurriedly ordered.

He made a big impression when he realized he didn’t bring his wallet.

By the time he managed to get his wallet from his wagon, Lilia was already drinking her milk tea.

When Richard returned to his seat opposite of hers, Lilia suddenly opened her mouth.

“So why did you ask to meet?”

Richard lowered his eyes, furrowing his eyebrows slightly. Then he rolled his lower lip inwards.

He looked like he made a face whenever his pride was hurt.

Richard, who had been pressing his lips for a long time, asked.

“Are you serious about breaking up with me?”

Instead of answering, Lilia placed a piece of paper on the table.

Richard’s face had blanked out for a moment when he saw the word “agreement to break up.”

“How come…”

Richard clenched his fist when she looked at him asking if he didn’t know.

“Is that what happened then? Or is it because of the Evantheon Little Duke?”

“Both.”

Lilia’s answer made his face crumpled a bit more.

“Isn’t it a lie when you said that you like Evanteon Little Duke? And that you met at the banquet and fell in love at first sight?”

He kept throwing questions which instead sounded close to interrogation.

Lilia replied bluntly after seeing his clenched fist shaking.

“If you don’t want to believe it, don’t. ‘Cause I’m serious.”

“It’s because you don’t know what Evanteon’s little duke is like!”

‘At least I know better than you.’

Lilia tried to answer back, but she held it in.

So far, it was better to let them misunderstand.

She can’t just believe the rumors and think of attacking Karhan. Richard breathed loudly to suppress his emotions.

His shoulders rose up and then sank.

“I know everything. You’re not going out with him because you’re feeling happy.”

At that moment, Lilia’s eyes narrowed.

When she listened carefully to see if he knew something, Richard confidently spoke.

“You’re actually going out with him to make me jealous, aren’t you?”

‘Are you crazy?’

At the moment, all the swear words that she had learned from Franchse passed through her head.

She was speechless because of the absurdity.

Then Richard’s expression became softer.

It looked like he judged that his deduction was right.

“……We’ve been fine so far.”

Lilia raised her head at the words he said quietly.

As their eyes locked on to each other, Lilia could see her reflection in his dark, crimson eyes.

“We would be married in three months, so I don’t think it makes sense for us to break up because of this.”

In a quiet voice, Richard talked about the future ahead of him. He knew how much Lilia had been waiting for the wedding.

Where the wedding would take place, the guests to invite, the honeymoon destination ……

Every time Lilia met Richard, she would happily talk about the plans for the wedding.

“We were supposed to go on our honeymoon to the South. Remember when you swore to see the sunset sea?”

When he talked about what she’d been sharing about, Lilia’s purple eyes shook a little.

The trembling, like the flapping of a butterfly’s wings, soon became ripples and spread.

Richard didn’t miss that small gap.

“Lilia, you are my first love.”

His quiet voice rang.

It was as if he had gone back to the past as he whispered words of love.

“I’ve been sure since we first met. We’re meant to be.”

Richard always said that their meeting was fate. Lilia thought so too.

If Richard hadn’t saved her on the day she fell into the water, she wouldn’t even be here.

So she left her fate to him who saved her life.

“Do you remember the first date we had? We didn’t know what to do, so we ate for three hours. And then when we went to see the flowers…”

Richard brought up good memories with a friendly tone.

Memories, which had been thrown out after she was betrayed by him, returned intact and were laid in front of her.

She couldn’t say that all of them were good, but the memories he gave her were unforgettable moments even for Lilia.

‘Why did I like you?’

It was a question she had asked thousands of times since the day she was betrayed.

There was a lot to answer.

Because she felt it was destiny, there were moments where he was affectionate to her, because it was her first relationship, because she thought it was sincere…

Richard was different from others.

After saving her life, he showed a humble attitude by saying that he did what he had to do and it was a different move from those who would only talk about money.

Lilia, who had a lot of experience in being betrayed by a person, initially suspected him.

However, because Richard was different from them, she was increasingly attracted and eventually fell in love.

The moments that she had spent with Richard were definitely full of happiness. Drunk with sweetness, she fell in love with him like a honey bee drowning in a honey jar.

However, love was not just sweet.

His attitude became so different from when they first dated.

Countless women hovered around Richard.

Every once in a while, when they had a fight, she would look at his eyes.

She would then feel nervous and think that he would never contact her again and leave her alone

The moments when she had to give up what she liked…

When she thought about it, it seemed that she wasn’t so happy while she dated him.

The shadow of anxiety that stretched under the happiness was bigger and deeper.

So she didn’t even know that she went to Richard after she heard the fortune teller’s words.

Now Lilia realized that all the happiness that she believed in was a mirage.

“…..”

Richard stopped talking.

He was nervous because Lilia hadn’t said anything, so he pressed his lips.

Soon, Richard lowered his head slowly.

“…I’m sorry. It’s my fault.”

Her calm purple eyes grew a little bigger.

Lilia blinked at the sight of Richard bowing to her.

The number of times he apologized first could be counted in one hand

“I must have been out of my mind then. I won’t do that again.”

Richard, who insisted that he was not cheating, eventually begged for forgiveness.

“I’ll do really well from now on. Give me one more chance,Lilia.”

When Lilia still did not answer, he jumped out of his seat and knelt on the floor.

As Richard was below eye level, Lilia was able to look down at the top of Richard’s head.

It was her first time looking down at him from above.

Lilia, who was looking at the burning red hair, suddenly opened her mouth.

“Alright.”

Richard raised his head.

His face lit up as if he thought he had been forgiven.

“I’ve listened to you, so now it’s my turn to answer, right?”

Lilia said, she then once again placed the agreement for the break up on the table in front of him.

“Now, sign here.”

“What…?

Richard asked back with a dazed face.

Lilia said one more time for him who couldn’t understand.

“I said sign here.”

Lilia even handed out a pen herself.

Richard alternated between the break up agreement and Lilia with betrayed eyes. As he slowly raised himself, he uttered a voice full of resentment.

“I’ve done so much to this extent, how could you do that? I said I’m sorry!”

“Why force forgiveness when it’s up to me?”

Since Richard’s attitude was apologetic, of course it would seem natural that she had accepted his apology.

Lilia ridiculed.

If Richard had approached her and begged her for forgiveness on the day she learned of his injustice, things might have been different.

At that time, she was blinded by love, and would have foolishly thought that Richard was sincerely reflecting on himself.

But not now.

“At that time, I thought you might come to me and ask for forgiveness.”

During the period when she was still foolishly stuck in her room, Lilia would look out of the window as she cried endlessly.

Just in case Richard would come to see her…

A day, two days, a week…

After 15 days, she had to admit it.

The fact that he was not going to meet with her.

The expectations she had made were overshadowed by misery.

“But it’s too late.”

When Richard brought up the past, her anger was higher than her good feelings for him.

Above all, Richard was the one who trampled on those precious memories.

Lilia smiled coldly instead of the sweet smile that Richard liked.

“So stop talking nonsense and sign now.”
