Chapter 25: Raising my Fiancè with Money Chap

Crouched Beast

Lilia and Karhan headed to a nearby restaurant. After a quick lunch, they ordered tea.

Lilia, who took a sip of tea, opened her mouth first.

“I met my fiance a while ago.”

Lilia briefly explained how she met Richard.

“I asked him to break up, but he refused which was as expected.”

To Richard, she was a water bank. She was also a golden jar with endless money.

So he couldn’t simply break up his engagement. In fact, an engagement, unlike marriage, had few legal restrictions.

In the event of an apparent one-sided failure of the engagement, there was no need to pay alimony.

However, since the pledge made at the engagement ceremony is kept at the government office, the engagement status is maintained if the consent for the divorce is not received.

You will not be able to get engaged or marry anyone else.

Most of them break up after the agreement, but sometimes it turns into mud fights.

At that time, it used to take years to go to trial because the lawsuit was long.

“Damn bastard.”

Karhan flinched at Lilia’s self-talk.

He, who had been looking at her for no reason, asked carefully.

“Is there anything that I can do?”

“Maybe there will be a disturbing maneuver from there. They would try to keep us apart.”

Richard was a cheap and arrogant fellow.

He’d think they’ll be able to reunite once he gets rid of Karhan.

“I hope we can strengthen our relationship.”

From Richard’s point of view, Karhan’s perception will not allow him to run wild.

In the meantime, Lilia was thinking of making a plan so that Richard had no choice but to break up.

Such a plan that would drive him to a corner.

“I’ve told my family about you.”

“Did they object?”

Karhan, who knows about the public’s assessment of himself, asked anxiously.

“Well… it’s all right.”

The family, who vehemently opposed Richard, responded subtly to Karhan.

Although her father opposed it a little, it has been rather quiet.

Considering the rumors surrounding Karhan, she was very sorry to her family, but the condition was that she would not speak to anyone about the contract relationship.

The secret where the fewer people knew, the longer it would last. Since their aide and escort knights already knew, from now on they had to be careful with their words.

“Did you tell your family about me?”

Karhan was silent at Lilia’s question.

“It would be good to start telling them.”

Karhan and Stella Delota had an engagement story going back and forth between the families.

According to what she heard last time, Karhan was not aware of it, but was informed of his betrothed partner.

If he doesn’t tell them quickly, they might set a date for the engagement ceremony.

“…… I’ll tell after seeing the right timing.”

Karhan’s face darkened in an instant.

She had felt this before, but whenever family stories came out, he sank like wet cotton.

Is there something wrong?

She was curious, but family history is a sensitive issue so she didn’t want to pry until he told her first.

“You did a great job today. Next time we meet, practice refusing.”

If he could definitely refuse, she would be able to feel relieved to some extent.

Lilia and Karhan got up from their seats.

But when they left the store, it started raining. The hot sun hid through the dark clouds, and the thick rain cooled the hot earth.

Lilia sighed as she looked at the faintly rising fog.

She listened to Heinley and brought an umbrella, but she left it in the carriage like a fool. She completely forgot because the weather was nice earlier.

Lilia and Karhan stood under the shop shade for a while. The rain showed no sign of stopping.

The streets were quiet, as many people went in search of shelter from the rain.

“.. Wait a moment, please.”

Karhan went into the store.

And he came out with an umbrella.

“There’s only one…”

Lilia looked at him quietly.

She never thought Karhan would come forward and borrow it first.

“Good job.”

At Lilia’s compliment, Karhan’s pointed eyes were a little torn down.

“I will buy an umbrella!”

Franchse raised his hand, one umbrella was not enough for five people to use.

Franchse ran through the rain with the umbrella brought by Karhan. After a while, he trudged back looking torn like a loser.

“…… I only got one.”

The umbrella seemed to have quickly run out because of the sudden rain.

There’s quite a distance to and from the carriage…

Lilia pondered how to use two umbrellas.

Then Malik noticed and quickly grasped Tession and Franchse’s shoulders.

“We’ll share it together!”

He looked as if he were a man on a mission.

“Would everyone be okay?”

Everyone nodded at Lilia’s question.

Three large men huddled together and opened the umbrella.

Lilia, who was watching the scene, stuck closely next to Karhan.

“Let’s share and go together.”

Pang, the umbrella opened with a cheerful sound.

“I’ll hold it.”

There was a big difference in height, so she thought it would be better. Karhan was handed the umbrella.

The umbrella felt small when it was in his hands. The two went out into the rain, sticking their bodies together.

Tu du du duk, a cool sound of rain came from above their heads.

Lilia and Karhan stepped forward as they bounced off the water droplets.As they were closer, she could feel his arms tense with tension in his shoulders. Even in the cold rain cooling the earth, his body was warm.

In the midst of the chilly fluff, she could only feel warmth in the area where they came in contact. They walked in the rain for a long time.

But Lilia was barely wet except for the hem of her skirt. Lilia glanced towards him.

His clothes that were soaking wet and sticking close to his shoulder caught her eyes.

Only the part that was touching her wasn’t wet, and it looked like he was drowning in the water. Surprised, Lilia put her hand on the handle leaning toward her.

“Karhan, you’re all wet.”

“I’m fine.”

He stared silently in front of him, but lowered his gaze sideways. The surrounding was all blurred by the mist, and his eyes had a vivid blue color.

At that moment, Lilia thought that she had been locked in Karhan’s eyes.

“…I’m already wet, so it will be no use.”

He hurriedly added a word.

“And because I have a constitution that does not easily catch a cold.”

Lilia, who felt sorry for nothing, hesitated and stuck a little more sideways.

When she looked up at him again, Karhan’s earbud seemed a little red.

She began to see the carriage by the entrance to the alley. They finally got to the front of the carriage through the pouring rain. Karhan kept holding the umbrella for Lilia so she could get on the wagon.

Eventually, he was soaking wet that his umbrella became worthless.

Lilia, who was in the carriage, looked at him. Water drops dripped from his scattered hair.

“I’m the only one who came comfortably. I’m so sorry.”

“No, I’m glad you didn’t get wet.”

Karhan said, sweeping up his wet hair.

“Thank you again for today. Lilia.”

Lilia’s eyes widened.

“For the first time, you called me by my first name.”

Lilia’s eyes curled like a rainbow after the rain. At the bright smile, Karhan froze for a moment.

“As expected, it’s because you practiced, right?”

“…Yes.”

“Thank you, then see you next time.”

With those words, the carriage door was closed. It wasn’t long before the carriage departed. Through the rain, the carriage quickly disappeared.

Karhan, who was following the moving carriage with his eyes, rubbed his prickly chest.

He heard the sound of his heart beating through the raindrops hitting all over the place as if hammering.

Karhan slowly tilted his head.

“Mr. Karhan, let’s go .”

Karhan, who seemed to be nailed to the ground, jumped at Tession’s words, stepped away. Karhan, who got on the carriage, shook off the water with a towel handed by Tession.

And he took off his wet clothes.

When all the shirts were taken off, his hidden skin was revealed. The muscular body was full of scars.

There were many scars, from light scratches to traces of life and death.

Karhan, who changed into the clothes that Tession handed over, slowly leaned against the window.

It was only half a day, but so much happened. He experienced a refund that was too difficult for him and a scuffle with the guards.

It was the first time that guards withdrew without him having to show the identification cards. He had a new experience every day since he met Lilia.

The changing routine was not bad.

He was looking forward to what would happen today. It’s been a long time since he thought it was fun.

Karhan, who was mulling over the praise Lilia gave, pressed his chest with his palm.

A tingling sensation rang in his chest.

He was already so familiar with pain that he was sick of it, but this was the first time he had this sensation.

“Is there anything that I can do…”

Tession, sitting across from Karhan’s murmur, raised his head.

Lilia was helping him this hard, but he had nothing to do for her. It was uncertain whether he could even complete a contractual relationship properly.

They have to do it right.

The pressure weighed on his shoulders.

Karhan looked down at the floor with dimly sunken eyes.

In fact, there was something he couldn’t tell Lilia. Although he was the successor to Evantheon, he was nothing but an empty shell.

Every time he went to see Lilia, he would put it off until the next time, pledging to be honest. The thorns that were rolling on the tongue soon settled in the deepest part.

It was only left unattended for a while, but it was getting deeper and more painful.

“Can I be of any help?”

“Mr. Karhan…”

Tession quietly called Karhan.

“Don’t worry too much. No matter what anyone says, Evantheon’s successor is Mr. Karhan.”

Karhan did not answer.

Tession thought about whether to cheer for him or not, but eventually shut his mouth.

He also knew the reality.

Karhan was the duke’s successor, but only had a temporary position where he did not even receive a successor class.

The Duchess and some of the elders think the real heir is………

Rattle, the carriage shook greatly.

Karhan and Tession looked out the window reflexively.

“……”

Through the window, they could see the Evantheon mansion getting closer.

The grand mansion was like a crouched beast. It seemed like it would run at any moment and bite Karhan.

He felt like he was submerged in the water, and his breath was suffocated.

The rain, which was so strong as if it was swallowing the world, grew thinner and thinner.

Finally, the carriage stopped and Karhan opened the door. As he stepped on the damp wet ground and looked around, he saw a familiar carriage somewhere.

The carriage had also just arrived, and the coachman was opening the door. Karhan stared at the woman walking down the stairs.

And when their eyes met, she shouted in a shattering voice.

“Evantheon!”

It was Stella Delota.
