Chapter 69 – Aftermath (3)
The identity of the voice was female.
Given where I am now, I would probably be in the industry.
That would be my guess as well, but a noble lady wouldn’t come to a place like this.
Is not it?
Prejudice is such a scary thing.
May come
Under the name of love, you can lay the board however you want.
Because it did no harm
Because I Love You.
Now everything is starting to make sense.
Isn’t pure love actually talking about this situation?
To look only at someone and do anything for him.
Eliminating those possibilities because you don’t want the person you love to go to someone else.
How beautiful.
To live a lifetime looking at each other only.
Laughed like a madman
I feel like I’m really going crazy if I don’t laugh.
Maybe the person sitting next to me a while ago thought I was crazy.
I’d rather all my thoughts were delusions.
That I’m overreacting.
I wish I could answer that he didn’t.
I hadn’t heard the answer yet, but somehow I didn’t want to go listen.
I felt like the answer I was thinking of and the truth she would tell me would be different.
I turned my head and looked at the person next to me.
It was strange to see him still sitting there even after seeing me.
Quite a while has passed since you asked the question.
I don’t know for what purpose she approached me.
She would have said it was no big deal if it was normal, but the bitterness and elation that spread throughout her body gave a completely different answer.
“I hope nothing happened.”
“I think there is.”
“You look very tired.”
Are you expecting me to fall next to you?
Or is it a little drunk and looking forward to what will happen next?
Of course, everything was going to come out of my money, so I wondered if it was still there.
“Something is more bitter than hard.”
“Someone cheated.”
How do you determine that?
Seeing her draw conclusions as much as she was determined, I felt her doubts.
Can I say that after seeing all kinds of human groups?
“Yeah well, that’s why the person I trusted.”
My mouth was already playing separately.
“Okay…”
“There was someone I used to date.”
I started to tell my story.
It was a story that I rarely said to others, but I wanted to say something today.
I’m like this now
Did you want someone to know?
It was a story that I hadn’t told even to the closest professor.
But to think he was saying this to a prostitute he saw for the first time today.
I don’t know if she’s really selling her body or if she’s part of a group called ’employees’.
My thoughts seemed to have already forgotten the fact of keeping the line.
No, maybe she was saying this because she was a whore.
After today, he was probably someone I would never see again.
“But at some point, he did something unspeakable to me.”
“I broke up like a dog…And dated someone else.”
It was so bittersweet to think about it again in my mouth.
“But one of the reasons we broke up at that time was that there was someone I was dating now… What can I say?”
“I’m sad and I’m angry, too.”
After she finished talking, I drank a glass of wine.
Shall I order another bottle?
I wanted to forget everything and go to sleep.
A sleep in which there are no very deep dreams.
She took my hand without saying anything.
Is it your own consolation?
There is no line and nothing to do.
There was only one drunkard left in it, probably because he was drunk.
It was an old man who intervened in the situation.
###
Oleg, butler of the Feroz family.
Although he held the title of butler, surprisingly, there were not many things he did about the mansion.
That kind of thing was usually handled by the chief ladies-in-waiting now, and what he did was usually a bit dark.
After getting to know Hilbert a long time ago, he used to do things that other people couldn’t do.
Even that was the case in the past, but these days, it’s almost infrequent.
It wasn’t a big deal to ask him to follow someone.
The subject was a strange one.
To tail the tutor who came to the house.
He said it wasn’t too long.
And he was told by his employer that it was no big deal.
He only said that the second lady was a very interested person, and he did not ask further.
I don’t know if past experience made him that way, but he did what he was told to do.
Did you do that for a week?
The moment he hears from his old colleague that the person he needs to keep an eye on doesn’t come out for the third day.
He took the information and headed to his employer.
The employer said that he knew, and called the second lady and started talking about something.
And then, somehow, the second lady got a smile back on his face.
I don’t know who the target was, but he thought that if he made the lady laugh again, that would be enough.
It was something he thought would end with that, but there was one more thing.
He said that this time he needed to kidnap someone.
He said he needed to take care of, to borrow the phrase of a little lady, ‘a bitch who doesn’t know the subject and behaves as she pleases’.
He was the one who remembered things he had done before, but he didn’t attach his opinion to the decision.
Because he didn’t deserve it.
As he hoped, he got the job done.
She said she would do the rest.
Seeing the image of his former employer in her appearance, he thought that the same blood flows.
He thought it was over.
Now that he and his second daughter have a promised future.
But today, hearing the words of her lady-in-waiting that he was urgently looking for him, he quickly headed to his room.
“Oleg.”
“Yes.”
“Go and get our son-in-law.”
He hasn’t even been married yet, but if he can be called son-in-law, is he a person of considerable worth?
Misconceptions had to be erased.
“All right.”
I had just returned from outside, so I didn’t have to prepare anything.
He just left the mansion.
He seemed to walk mindlessly down his street.
Then at some point he walked into a bar.
Did you know what kind of place this is?
But he didn’t have to worry about that, so he moved on.
He had someone he knew working, so he asked the people standing at the door to call someone.
It was a familiar person, so there was no problem getting in.
He ordered a whole bottle and was drinking.
Eating like that is perfect for ruining the inside, but did something difficult happen?
Out of sympathy for some reason, I decided to just watch him for a while.
There was a woman next to him, but he didn’t seem interested.
The frequency of passing the glass increased and it seemed that it was time to take him away.
She called him
“Boss.”
###
I don’t know if I’m married or not, but since there were no people around and it was a low-pitched voice, it wasn’t even the voice of the woman sitting next to me.
I turned around and saw a familiar face.
He was the butler of the Feroz family.
I hadn’t seen many of them, but I knew the face.
Did you say you had something else to do?
“What are you doing? Are you here for a drink?”
My voice was clownish.
It was clear at last that I had gone mad.
“Now go back.”
He noticed and kicked the woman next to him.
My skin was soft, but it’s a pity.
“Where are you?”
I have no place to return to, so where am I talking?
“You’ve drunk a lot.”
Drunk? I can still drink more.
Still, I couldn’t bluntly throw away a person who had come a long way for me, so I decided to be polite.
“I’ll take care of myself when the time comes.”
Then he drank the rest of the drink in his glass.
I heard a bottle, but something was light.
When I tilted my head, it was empty.
I’ll order another bottle.
“A bottle of something else.”
“Boss.”
I’m not your husband, so why do you keep calling me?
“It’s late. Let’s go in now.”
He just repeated the same words.
It’s not a bird that imitates people, what is it doing?
“I’m sorry you came so far because of me, but please go in first.”
But he didn’t give up, as if he had to take me somehow.
“It was the lady’s order to bring her husband safely.”
Girl
Do you know what that lady did to me?
He was this guy and that guy and didn’t seem to give me any time.
“I’ll come in when it’s time.”
My voice was surprisingly cold.
I had no intention of going into the house for a while.
Perhaps, once my thoughts were organized, there would be nothing to do but go to pick up my luggage that had been moved.
I left him standing behind me and waited for a drink.
I’ve expressed my intentions, so I’ll take care of it as it was waiting for me.
He seemed a little worried.
But it didn’t seem like a problem for me.
How long to drink was an important question to me now.
He heard the sound of his footsteps.
If it wasn’t forced, it would probably be forced to go back in an impossible situation.
“Excuse me.”
The shock that came along with those words left me unconscious.
