Chapter 36: 33

Chapter 33

Winter drank alcohol in his room for a few days after that.

For a while, the sound of breaking and cracking was heard from his bedroom and swear words were pouring, but it calmed down in an instant.

It was quiet until the next morning. Hayel opened Winter’s bedroom door with confidence and was impressed by the cigarette smoke and smell of alcohol pouring out.

“.…..Oh, I’m going crazy.”

When Winter’s eyes turned, the answer was to put everything around him away and avoid him until his anger subsided.

Still, he was someone who wanted Winter to see and find out about him, so he just sent him because he thought it was false, but it was not.

Normally, he would have searched around Violet to see if the affair was correct, and Winter Blooming would have found evidence that could not be taken away, and won an advantageous contract. The person who did best in business was terrible in marriage.

Hayel ran, dissatisfied with the pity, opened the window and shouted.

“Lord! If you’re alive, wake up!”

Winter, who had fallen asleep for a long time, groaned and tossed at Hayel’s way of waking up. Flip, who came in with him, picked up the bottle Winter inhaled all night.

Hayel sighed and said, “The average person would have been found dead if they had drank this much, sir.”

“Shut up.”

Winter spoke in a completely sober voice, then lifted himself up from the bed, and sat with his back against the headboard.

He poured alcohol wildly, saying he couldn’t fall asleep or get drunk.

Winter always told him before, he lost money and bought something profitable. He basically had an eye for the flow of money. The result of his failed investment in all aspects was Violet.

Winter tilted his head back and murmured.

“She’s even cheating on me.”

It is not that he didn’t know that he wouldn’t be satisfied with his wife, but the problem is, he doesn’t seem to have such a dirty hobby.

Winter’s condition was in a mess due to the storm including the drunkenness that hit him a few days ago.

He was recovering immediately on the day he lost all his property, but it took him days to get out of the betrayal he received from his mother and wife on the same day.

Hayel poked Flip to talk to him and jeered Winter, but Flip pretended to hold the bottle and concentrate on cleaning the room, as if it was his job.

Hayel said with a deep sigh.

“No, there could be a lot of other reasons for pregnancy, but why do you say it’s an affair, really?”

“Any other reason? Give me one.”

When Winter murmured, Hayel answered sneakily.

“……A miracle?”

“You’re an amazing talker, aren’t you?”

While Hayel rolled his eyes to see if he had anything to say, Flip, who had been silent next to him, suddenly stepped in and said.

“I’m sorry, but I’m on the little lady’s side. Everyone will agree that the little lady is not one who will have an affair.”

Normally, Winter would have told Flip not to confront him, but now he didn’t feel like it.

“I thought so, too.”

Before he got married without seeing her once, her wife had a man whom she had talked about marriage with. In addition, the man’s name was listed on his wife’s property document.

The sunlight pouring through the open window of Winter’s room was dazzling, he covered his eyes with his hands and grumbled.

“Oh, it’s not worth living.”

***

Violet has not been able to eat anything other than a fruit these days. In addition, she had a headache all the time because she didn’t even take medicine, saying she didn’t want to harm the child, even if the doctor said it was okay.

Jen sat on a chair next to the bed where Violet was sitting, and grumbled peeling a fruit.

“I know who the little lady is meeting all day. Why does the little master catch people without even knowing?”

Violet nodded and sympathized, and Jen grumbled about Winter’s temper.

“If it were me, I would have gone wild and fainted.”

“I also wanted to, but.….. it might be bad for the child.”

“You’ll get sick if you put up with that, little lady. And the older sisters who had got married said that if your husband can’t do it in the early stages of pregnancy, it will remain in your heart forever. You have to pester him later, by all means.”

As Jen was mumbling while cutting the fruit, a knock on the bedroom door was heard.

“Violet.”

It was Catherine’s voice.

Jen was confused and when she saw Violet, she nodded as if she had expected it.

Jen opened the door, and saw James dressed up for the party, just like Catherine in a nice dress.

Now that she doesn’t have enough money to have a party at home, she’s probably going to get invited somewhere.

Catherine said with a heavy look.

“I heard the story. I heard you’re pregnant.”

“Yes.”

Judging from their facial expressions, they didn’t seem to be here to celebrate. When Violet shut up, Catherine continued.

“Winter can’t have children with you. You heard that, too.”

“You know that….. but you didn’t tell me.”

“That’s……”

When Catherine hesitated, James opened his mouth instead.

“Isn’t it all money that came between you two anyway? These collateral things are just marriage that would’ve happened without even knowing it.”

“For three years…… You didn’t even say anything when people blamed me for not having children.”

Sadness and anger crushed Violet, but she tried to find composure.

In the past three years, she has been this angry, but she never felt so betrayed.

If they had told her in advance, she would have accepted it. It was a marriage of money. However, it was a completely different story to say this after she was pregnant and drove her into an affair.

“Please, wait until the baby is born. You’ll definitely know when the child is born……”

The bedroom door opened while Violet was patiently persuading them. Winter, who looked wasted even though he had just shaved, stood over the door.

He looked into the room with an indifferent look and spoke in an irritated voice.

“I’ve heard it from the outside, but you two don’t deserve to say that to my wife.”

“Winter, how can you say that……”

Winter, who leaned against the door, was tired as Catherine approached, and continued.

“That’s what it is. What have you been doing for 3 years? Why do you nag her after something happens? You should’ve taken care of at least one of my wife’s work with so many living expenses that I’ve been giving you. She’s my replacement, the only productive person in the house.”

“Son, what a rude thing to say.”

When James scolded, Catherine said soothingly.

“Winter was so surprised that he couldn’t control his emotions. Don’t be so angry.”

James shut up as if his wife had stopped him.

Winter didn’t let his family own much property, because he had a distrust that his family could abandon him at any time.

Even the Blooming family estate was largely owned by Winter, and the remaining assets had been drastically reduced due to successive business failures by Dave, who felt inferior to his brother.

They are still far richer than ordinary LaCrown citizens, but no ordinary citizen has spent as much as they do.

Therefore, it was a great threat to them that the attention of their son, who only knew his parents, turned to their daughter-in-law.

Winter said with a face about to explode.

“Both of you, please leave.”

“Are you going to be okay alone? We’re having a party at the Landon family today, so why don’t you come with us?”

“I’m in the mood to hang out right now.”

Winter sarcastically replied to Catherine’s words, and opened the door like a doorman and greeted them, as if asking them to go out.

Eventually, when the two left the room as if they were being kicked out, Winter gestured to Jen to leave as well.

“Jen, go rest.”

At Violet’s words, Jen’s face looked worried as she was about to go out with a tray of fruits. Then, Winter said, “Leave it there.”

“Yes……”

Jen left the bedroom feeling lost.

When only the two of them were left, Violet looked at Winter without saying a word. After a long silence, Winter put one knee on the bed and leaned over. Violet’s body, which was avoiding him, collapsed on the bed.

Violet’s eyes smeared with fear, but her voice contained strength.

“It’s your child.”

“……”

“I have nothing more to say. There’s no way to prove it.”

“Tell me who it is. I’ll forgive you.”

He meant it.

He could forgive Violet with all his heart, if there was a guarantee that his wife and the child’s biological father would never meet.

“You don’t believe me.”

“It has to be reliable for me to believe.”

“If you don’t believe me……. What I said about wanting to get divorced is still valid.”

She remained calm even if she was afraid to face the man with a great physique who exerts intimidation and thought of attacking her.

In Winter’s eyes, his wife’s appearance was filled with nobility in any situation. Even now, she looked convinced of injustice. He always suffered from the desire to bring his wife down and put her in his arms. From the day they first met until now, it was still the same.

“If he’s a good person, he’ll let you go.”

Winter replied, and unlike his cold eyes, he raised Violet with a gentle touch, and sat down.

Maybe it was because he was doing all kinds of stupid things alone for a few days, but seeing his wife’s face made him feel better. He opened his mouth by picking up the fruits that Jen had left behind with the intention of relieving the atmosphere.

“I’ll turn down the party on my own, so take a rest at home. Stop working in the garden because it’s dangerous. Call me home, if you want to do a book club.”

“So it’s all up to you.”

“It’s because I haven’t learned.”

Winter answered in a minor way, and he ate half of the apples, and gave the other half to Violet.

Winter, who sat with his back on Violet again, chewed on the apple and continued.

“I don’t know what kind of guy he is, but if I find him, I’ll strangle him right away. Tell him to run away when he gets in touch.”

“You look like you’re strangling yourself.”

Winter’s broad shoulders shook with ridicule, perhaps because Violet’s calm words were ridiculous.

After spending a short time without further conversation, Winter stood up and Violet held his hand. Violet asked him looking back.

“Doesn’t it ever occur to you that it could really be your child?”

Violet was desperate. Her pride, which was left behind, was completely crushed. She was being treated as a woman with no money and no status, and even being suspected of having an affair. Nevertheless, she clung to her husband as if begging him.

She can withstand it when she thinks of her child, but it was unacceptable that her child was being suspected as another man’s child.

Winter, who had been thinking for a while about her plea, opened his mouth.

“I checked your land register. Where the money goes?”

“What?”

“What do you mean by ‘What’? The man you used to have marriage talk with is supposed to be the one receiving the tenant’s fee.”

Violet pulled her husband’s arm inadvertently because she didn’t understand at all and was nervous.

“What the hell are you talking about? Please tell me in detail.”
