Episode 32

 

 

“Isn’t he the one with the nasty rumors in the capital?”

The young maids whispered incessantly as they looked at Andrei, who was looking around.

“He introduced himself as a cousin of the lady”

“Oh, my…”

“Did you see those eyes? It gives me goosebumps….”

Tatiana scolded the maids when she saw them huddling and whispering.

“You there!”

When they saw Tatiana, the maids bowed their heads and scattered to their places. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.She needs to keep her subordinates in check as she looks at Christa.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“The lady has a visitor.”

“You mean me?”

No matter how much Christa thinks, there was no way that there would be a guest who would come here to look for her. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Then Tatiana quickly added.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“He introduced himself as the cousin of the lady.”

“Cousin…”

If it’s her cousin, then it would only be Andrei, the son of Sebastian and Eva.

Andrei lived in a dormitory near the capital, so he rarely encountered her. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.They do not interact except for occasional encounters once or twice a year. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.It was questionable why he came to see her at this point, but it was difficult to turn him away either.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“I’ll go.”

‘Why did he come here?’

When she thought about their relationship, she couldn’t get rid of her displeasure.

Christa was guided to the drawing room by Tatiana. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.When she opened the door of the drawing room, she saw Andrei sitting with a teacup in hand. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Indeed, her cousin visited her.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“Christa!”

Andrei greeted her with open arms. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.He strode up and clasped her cheeks. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Christa stood bewildered because he had never done such intimate acts before.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“You really succeeded in life.”

His eyes, looking up and down at his cousin, were quickly analyzing something.

“Andrei?”

Seeing Tatiana standing behind Christa, Andrei clears his throat.

“Well, well, I have something to talk to Christa about.”

Tatiana, who could not refuse the request of Christa’s blood, stepped back with a smile.

“Then talk to your cousin. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.I’ll be waiting outside.”read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

She left the drawing room, hinting that she would not go far. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.The heavy wooden door closed silently.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

As soon as the door closed, Andrei pushed Christa roughly and kept his distance. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Then he shouted in an urgent voice.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“What the hell have you done?”

His voice was tinged with accusation.

“What?”

Then Andrei pointed to her stomach and wrinkled his nose.

“I mean, how did you deceive the Duke?”

“How dare you cheat…”

Christa bit the flesh in her mouth. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Andrei talked incessantly, not caring about Christa’s inaction.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“No, no. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.I don’t have to know how you tricked the Duke. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.I just admire my cousin’s new talent.”read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Christa doesn’t know how he interpreted her silence, but Andrei just chuckled.

The two stood vaguely at the tea table in the drawing room. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.It was Andrei who flopped back into the chair.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“Mother said you’d need a doctor.”

“A doctor?”

When Christa asked back, Andrei shouted loudly at the door. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.It was an exaggerated way of speaking as if he wanted someone to hear it.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“Yes! My cousin is carrying a precious baby, so she can’t see just any doctor, can she?”

Andrei’s cheerful chatter with exaggerated gestures and voice was somewhat unfamiliar and awkward. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Andrei then put his ear to the heavy mahogany door and checked outside.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“What the hell are you talking about….?”

Then Andrei, who lowered his voice again, interrupted Christa and whispered.

“This is all for you to do well. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.We already bought one. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.We’ll send a doctor soon, so be careful not to get caught.”read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Christa had nothing else to say when he answered all her questions on his own. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.At that time, the door of the drawing room opened without a warning.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“What the hell is going on?”

It was Ragnar. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.When he heard the news about Christa’s cousin who came without an appointment, he came in a hurry and it was like this. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Andrei reacted immediately to his appearance.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“Oh, who is this? Aren’t you my brother-in-law?”

No matter if it was Andrei’s tactlessness or sense of humor, he tried to stick to Ragnar without being intimidated by his cold expression.

At the same time, the sound of armor crashing was heard, and the Duke’s soldiers moved. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Andrei crumbled to the floor.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“Argh!”

They grabbed Andrei like a beast and pressed him to the floor.

“M, my Lord? Hey, Christa!”

Andrei hurriedly called out his cousin’s name, but the knights waited for their master’s instructions without moving as if they could not hear Andrei’s pleas. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Only then did the butler Bjorn speak softly to Andrei, who was lying on the floor.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“What a rude thing to do to the Duke.”

It sounded as if he was recommending tea instead of seeing the current situation.

“Let me go, let me go. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Ha, ha ha ha, Christa?”read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Andrei now cried out for Christa desperately. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.But there was no reply. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.It was because Ragnar ordered her rude cousin to be removed before Christa could answer anything.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Upon hearing the order, the soldier dragged Andrei out.

“Seems like he said something nonsensical. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.What did your cousin say?”read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“Oh, that’s….”

Christa mulls whether to say it or not. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Then she finally confessed. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Ragnar, who whispered expletives, briefly asked her for understanding and left his seat before returning.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“I’m asking again just in case, are you close to your cousin?”

“No.”

Ragnar laughed with a strange expression as if saying, “That’s alright, then.”

“I was wondering if I should invite him to the wedding. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.As expected, it’s okay without him.”read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Christa thought for a moment. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Andrei did not attend her wedding to Count Pasquier in her previous life. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.So it’s okay if he doesn’t come.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“Yes.”

Ragnar delivered the order to his men.

“This has to be done deliberately.”

“How about we skip the wedding ceremony?”

Marriage between nobles was not a necessary formality. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.It is more common to hold only d*cuments and omit ceremonies.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“That’s not going to happen.”

But Ragnar was adamant.

“Why?”

“How can I skip the wedding ceremony for my lover?”

It was just a marriage contract. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Last time, she recalled that they were going to announce their marriage at the hunting festival. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.It was clear that doing such a thing at an event hosted by the imperial family would upset the political spirit exchanged with the imperial family at once.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Obviously in her previous life, he refused to marry the imperial family. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.It was so when she recalled her faint memories. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.As soon as the war ended, she only heard that Ragnar had returned to Wishus’ northern territorial waters as if he were being chased by something.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Since then, he has not appeared in any public appearances and remained in northern frozen soil until the end of his life. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.It was difficult to determine the authenticity of all these things because they were all in Christa’s cloudy memory.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Christa sighed softly.

Everything, including the wedding, was going remarkably differently from the past. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.The past is no longer the past she knows.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Being different from the past soon overshadowed her knowledge. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.The facts were becoming more and more distorted.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“The wedding will probably take place on the territory.”

“At the territory…”

In Wishus’ rough northern land, there are four seasons in a year, half of which are heavy snowstorms and the other half is heavy fog and hail.

“It’s a cold place, but hot spring water flows inside the castle, so you can enjoy taking a bath anytime.”

“Are you talking about the hot spring?”

Christa had heard that once, too. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.There were large and small volcanoes and more than 400 hot springs on Wishus. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.The architect of the Wishius Castle took advantage of the terrain to bring hot spring water into the castle. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Thanks to him, they were able to enjoy the luxury of always using hot water.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“Have you ever been to the North?”

Christa shook her head silently. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Of course, she has never been outside of the capital in her entire life except on the battlefield.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“I’m sure you’ll like it.”

Ragnar remembered Christa standing on a white snowfield. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.For a moment, Ragnar could not escape a strange sense of deja vu. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.As if he’s been watching her for a long time.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Christa standing on an endless white snow field. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.She would fit in very well. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.As she is all white, she may even be impossible to distinguish from the background. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.But her red eyes, like the intense color of blood stained on the white snow, will distinguish her.read only at salmonlatte . com.

When he first met her— it was at the Battle of Gryllian — that he thought so. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.As opposed to a wet, muddy battlefield, Christa Palmaril suits the cool, cold, polar ice castle.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

He was not wrong in what he thought then. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.They were about to return to Wishus.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“I can’t wait to show you the territory. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.At least there are more interesting things there than here.”read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Ragnar spoke eloquently and told her what was going on with Wishus.

It began with a scary legend about a frost giant, then led to a mine story and finally to Ragnar’s favorite landscape.

Christa nodded her head and glistened her eyes like a child immersed in an old story.
