Raising My Fiancé With Money

Chapter 50

Stubbornness

TL: Jasmine

Chapter 8

Richard Tersian stayed in the study without attending his favorite type of party. Sitting in front of the desk for the first time in a long time, he twirled his quill with his finger.

Previously, Richard obtained Stella’s cooperation. And he met the person Stella introduced him to. Stella brought in a maid who worked for the Duke of Evantheon and bought her with money. Until now, Stella seemed to have used her to find out karhan’s schedule in advance.

Richard had a history of bribing Count Bloden’s servants, so things worked out easily. He got the information about the Duke of Evantheon he needed when he met the maid. However, he was anxious that he would not find a decisive weakness.

The maid was clearly hiding something. However, she didn’t easily tell him if she had been silenced by the Duke.

Richard did not give up and worked hard. Being good, at seducing women, he captivated the maid’s heart, which he had not won over with money. Eventually, the maid opened her mouth after urging him not to talk to anyone.

– I found out while working with the Duchess… Actually, the second master is only a temporary successor.

– What does that mean?

-You know that Evantheon has an eldest son, right?

This secret was the weakness of Karhan, which Richard had been looking for so much. Karhan Evantheon is known to have driven out the eldest son and taken the successor position, but the reality was different.

The eldest son had an accident and went abroad. Although he gave up his successor position for a while, he would return to the empire and become a duke after a moderate amount of time. Even within the family, Karhan was on the blacklist and had no power.

“That’s right.”

Richard raised his mouth. Richard did not believe it when Lilia said she had a loved one. It was because it was very suspicious to bring Karhan Evantheon, who was just a higher rank than himself. So Richard speculated that Lilia had some kind of deal with Karhan to keep him in check.

What would happen if she found out that Karhan Evantheon was an empty shell? At least the trust between the two will collapse.

There was plenty of time to squeeze in. Richard concluded his plan, thinking that he should visit Lilia soon.

(P/R: NO STAY AWAY T.T)

Lilia stared at the two coats hanging in the closet. The coat, which looked over-sized in her arms, stood out in the closet.

A few days ago, Lilia ran into Karhan at the exhibition and invited him to dinner. At that time, Karhan handed her the clothes for her when she was feeling

cold.

Lilia took out the coat. Perhaps because it hadn’t been washed, his scent had not yet faded. She didn’t know what kind of perfume he used, but it was a refreshing scent as if she was in the forest. The lingering scent of the subtle citrus, not a heavy and strong scent, remained faint. It didn’t seem to fit, but it strangely matched Karhan.

The scent reminded her of the scenery of that time vividly. The dark riverside where the lights spanned out. The blue eyes, which seemed to be sucking her in, blazed in front of her eyes. The heat that rose where his eyes touched seemed to be still taking root.

…..It’s because I drank alcohol.’

At that time, the feeling of being possessed by something was probably all because of the alcohol. Lilia thought his clothes would be wrinkled, so she hung them again and turned around. When she came out of the dressing room, someone knocked on the bedroom door.

“Lady, dinner will be ready in an hour.”

Lilia lifted herself up from her seat. Today was the day when all the family members gathered and ate together. Lilia, who had been stuck in the room all day, took off her pajamas and dressed up simply.

When she arrived at the dinner hall, she could see her family already sitting down. Lilia quickly sat in an empty seat and asked,

“Am I late?”

“No, you’re just in time.”

Cliff shook his head. Lilia saw Heinley sitting across from her.

“You came early, too.”

“I know. You seem busy these days.”

When Cliff helped with a word, Heinley replied, pushing up his glasses,

“I had a lot of work, but I just learned how to deal with it faster.”

“Damn b*stard.”

He shook his head as if he was tired of Cliff. Lilia briefly recalled what had happened before.

In the past, before Heinley entered the Academy, he had taken home lessons. The tutor was a very strict person, but he often bumped into Heinley, who had the same personality.

To discourage Heinley, he gave him a tremendous task, and Heinley would finish it in a day. He even finished a week’s worth of homework in three hours to play with Lilia. Her parents, who later found out about it, clicked their tongues, saying it was toxic behavior.

“Now that everyone’s here, shall we eat?”

Violet looked around and asked. As everyone nodded, the employees standing behind moved in unison.

The colorful plates decorated the table. It was full of luxurious foods that could only be eaten on special days, even if they were aristocrats. Everyone ate appetizers and talked about what happened recently

Lilia, who was watching the cheerful atmosphere, looked at her family for a moment. The family continued the conversation with light smiles.

Over the past few years, everyone has slowly started eating together. It was more familiar to see the family angry or worried than smiling faces. She was sad and sorry to think that it was a scene that had been lost for a long time because of her. Lilia reflected on herself again and intervened in the conversation.

After a while, the main dish came up after Cliff talked about his beloved turnip. Violet glanced at Heinley and opened her mouth.

“I’ve received a marriage proposal for you…..”

“Please refuse.”

“I’m not done talking yet. Why are you in such a hurry?”

Violet raised one eyebrow. Heinley replied without even looking at Violet.

“It’s a waste of time to listen to it.”

“…..Really. Whose stubbornness does that resemble.”

Then Cliff looked at Violet quietly. Violet picked up the neatly placed knife. Cliff flinched and looked away, Violet lamented as she gracefully cut the meat with the knife,

“You don’t want to get married, don’t want to inherit; the business. It’s really hard to find you a match.”

“Should we consider a third option?”

When Cliff asked, the knife cut the meat at once. Cliff, who witnessed the bowl splitting in half with a crackling sound, raised his head.

“Who gave birth to the baby?”

“I’m sorry, wife”

Cliff immediately apologized. Violet looked at Heinley quietly after having cleaned up the dish that broke into two.

“Well, no one can match your personality.”

Violet convinced herself. Heinley was so thorough that he would force his parents to sign a contract when lending money.

Hainley’s personality was the reason why she did not push ahead with marriage too hard even though he was already nearing thirty. Heinley’s wife might sue, claiming that it was a fraudulent marriage.

“I’d rather ask Lilia to bring a son-in-law……”

Violet drew out her words. Karhan, who was dating Lilia, was the successor to Duke Evantheon. It was impossible to bring a future Duke as a live-in son-inlaw.

“By the way, are you seeing the Young Duke these days?”

“We met a few days ago.”

Everyone turned their attention to Lilia’s answer. Everyone was very interested in Karhan.

“I couldn’t see him off last time. It kept bothering me…How’s the wound?”

“I asked, and he said it healed well without a scar.”

“That’s a relief.”

Lilia raised her head slightly and looked at Violet’s face. Her face was as peaceful as usual.

After inviting Karhan to the mansion before, the family did not object much to him. It was judged that he was a better person than they thought. However, apart from that, it was clear that they still did not want Karhan.

Violet asked Lilia.

“Anyways, he must be busy with his successor’s class. Does he have time to meet you?”

“He looks sincere, so he’ll do well.”

Cliff, not Lilia, replied quickly. Heinly, who was eating quietly, was told by Violet,

“Since we only met him once, he might only be acting sincere.”

“I don’t think so.”

Everyone looked at Cliff silently. Cliff was startled by the sudden looks at why he was saying this. Apparently, he was too open-minded about karhan. Cliff quickly began to look for excuses,

“No, I mean…….”

“Did you meet the Young Duke?”

Violet asked suspiciously. Cliff shouted, knocking and slamming the table,

“Why would I have to meet the Young Duke privately? He’s the one who’s going to take my daughter! Even if he asks me to meet him, I won’t.”

Cliff expressed excessive excitement, saying he was disgusted. Violet and Heinley, who saw his performance, looked at him strangely.

“What…..okay.”

Cliff swallowed a sigh of relief inside. He thought he should at least wear a disguise when he met Karhan and watch the orchestra next time. It’s hard to find someone who has such good tastes, but how could it be his daughter’s boyfriend?

Cliff tried to change the topic of the conversation, and the story was already passed on to Heinley. Heinley, who was cutting meat straight and smooth, opened his mouth.

“I think i’ll get promoted this time.”

“What? Already?”

“I took care of everything my boss gave me, and my performance has accumulated a lot.”

“Congratulations, brother.”

Lilia congratulated him sincerely. It was an unusual promotion for his age, so it was a family celebration

“Congratulations.”

“You worked hard.”

Violet and Cliff, who congratulated, sighed at the same time.

“Who will inherit the business….”

“Should I look for a professional manager from now

on?”

Lilia’s heart pounded at the lamented tone. Her parents didn’t even think that they would hand over the business to her.

This was because Lilia had never been greedy, and after marrying Richard, she nailed it that she would be faithful to her duty as the wife of a Marquis.

Lilia only had her lips tight. It may be too late to say that she wanted to participate in management now.

However, if she keeps her mouth shut, nothing will change. Even if she will be criticized, she wanted to give an opinion. Isn’t it funny she tells Karhan to express his opinion while she can’t say anything?

Lilia put down the tableware. At first glance, everyone’s eyes were on Lilia as she looked back resolute. Lilia opened her mouth looking at her family one by one,

“I want to continue the business.”
