Chapter 102
“Would you like to sleep with me tonight?”
Eric’s words momentarily choked Chloe, making her unable to speak.
For a long time, she had never been able to go to his side for five years. Others wouldn’t believe it if she said the only time she had slept next to him was the one time in the airship. In the first place, they had no marital relationship, it was ambiguous to say that they were married.
Still, to want to sleep together…?
Chloe’s eyes flickered wildly. Her mouth half-opened in disbelief and she couldn’t say anything, so there was only silence for a while.
Eric thought that she was rejecting him.
“I guess I went too far.”
He quickly took back his words.
“It’s okay if it’s not today. I just wanted to sleep with you, so please don’t feel burdened.”
“No, no, Eric.”
Chloe quickly shook her head at his hasty retreat before she replied, holding his hand tightly.
“I want to be with you, too.”
This time, Eric’s eyes widened.
He didn’t know that she could express her feelings so openly. Surely, she was the one who was full of cold energy until this morning! However, she changed now. Could it be that she has finally opened her heart?
Feeling moved and grateful, he felt like giving her everything.
“Chloe.”
Eric took Chloe’s hand and gently kissed the fingertips.
“Our relationship will no longer be disrupted.”
As his soft lips touched the tips of her fingers, they slowly moved up and traced the back of her hand, her wrist. He then kissed her wrist and raised his eyes.
“I promise you that I will give you everything.”
Chloe replied that she was happy to accept, and they went home in good spirits.
“Damn it!”
Returning to the room, Haras untied his tie roughly and spat out curse words.
Of course, he would act like that.
Today’s matter, today’s situation was really full of nonsense! The fact that Marquis Eric danced with Chloe as if to show off made him angry… and following that, a one-sided transaction suspension notice!
Haras soon had to explain the situation to the coming King, and he had to take the King’s wrath.
D*mn it.
He was angry.
He was so angry that he was going crazy! However, despite this resentment, it was more resentful that there was nothing he could do. No matter what, the royal family and the Kingdom depended on Eric in many ways.
It shouldn’t be like this… the transaction should not be cut off.
Haras gestured toward William, who was similarly indignant.
“What are you doing?”
William hurried over.
“Get a lawyer first since someone who can adjust it to our best advantage. Buy the judge, too.”
It sounded like he was going to sue Eric. William was a little taken aback, but the surprise was fleeting. Thinking about it coolly, their position allowed them to sue Eric enough.
William pulled his chin.
“It’s a one-sided transaction suspension, so we can somehow turn it in our favor.”
“I’ll prepare.”
With his compliant answer, Haras could at least feel his heart sink a little.
Whoo.
He took a deep breath and swept his hair.
“And.”
Haras narrowed his eyes.
“Did you say Chloe’s illness is a heart disease?”
“Yes. Maybe.”
As he answered openly, William was thinking why he asked such a thing. However, Haras didn’t reply to him immediately and only pressed the flesh inside his mouth with his tongue gently while narrowing his brows. He seemed lost in deep thought.
“Brother?”
Hearing William’s call, Haras finally came out of his thoughts. He raised his chin and looked down at William.
“Find one of the servants of the Marquis’ mansion that can be bought with money.”
“That is possible.”
“Yes. A maid who takes care of Chloe’s food is even better.”
“What?”
William’s eyes widened. For Haras to say that, Chloe…
Then, he asked in a slightly trembling voice.
“Brother, are you…”
“Yes.”
Haras cut off William’s words and answered.
“Are they supposed to have a happy time with each other?”
He clenched his fists hard.
“…No. I will never let them.”
What Haras was planning… it was to kill Chloe. If she died, the Marquis would be frustrated, and he would devise a plan to bring everything back to him by conducting a trial to take advantage of Eric’s frustration.
He muttered in a low determined voice.
“I will definitely put him in despair.”
William wandered between two paths—his human reason and his duty as a prince—but soon chose the latter, so he did not stop his brother.
Thump, thump.
Chloe couldn’t hide her trembling heart.
That was a given… because she really ended up in a room with Eric!
Eric left the room, saying he would come back after taking a shower, so she knew he would come in soon.
Chloe was trembling as she held onto her thin chemise. It was something she had hoped for for a long time. She had wanted to sleep in the same bed with Eric for a very long time. However, when it actually came…
‘…I think I’m going crazy.’
Her heart ached so much.
This was different from the pain caused by her illness. It was a pain from the pounding. It felt like her heart was beating up to her throat.
Chloe took a breath, barely holding on to her giddy mind.
What would happen today?
Was she really going to sleep with him? She knew all of him and he was the one who knew all of her… there was nothing left.
Then, they were going to bed together?
As her thoughts went that far, a renewed wave of heartache surged and she felt like going crazy. Chloe pressed her palms against her chest, attempting to quell the turmoil that was boiling inside but, as always, it didn’t work. She couldn’t control her mind, and she was still trembling.
Until Eric came in.
As he opened the door and came in, his hair hadn’t been dried yet, so water droplets dripped from the tips of his hair. The water droplets on the smooth skin were sparkling, and the wet eyelashes were enough to make his hollow eyes look deeper.
“…You’re done?”
When Chloe spoke cautiously to him, he paused for a moment before slowly approaching her, pulling his chin.
“I thought you would be sleeping.”
He came up to her knees, gathered her disheveled hair, and tucked it behind her ear.
“Were you waiting?”
Chloe was somehow embarrassed and couldn’t answer. It seemed that her blushing cheeks were the answer.
Eric looked at her flushed cheeks and smiled a little.
“It’s the first time I’ve seen this dress.”
He spoke while looking at the chemise she was wearing.
‘Ah.’
Chloe pulled her chin.
“These are the clothes Andrea gave me. At this time, she said she wanted to give me a gift, so it wasn’t bought with your money…”
Eric narrowed his brows slightly and let out a laugh.
“Chloe.”
Originally, he would have misunderstood Chloe’s words and sighed alone. He could have been angry… but he was different now.
He sat down next to Chloe and spoke again.
“I would give you my all.”
He uttered in a voice full of sincerity.
“Your husband is not a person who is embarrassed by just one dress like this. So, please buy everything you want. For me.”
Chloe’s eyes trembled.
It was because she was so ashamed that she had just said something that sounded like she was ignoring him! Couldn’t hide her shame, she turned her head away as her face was even more flushed now.
She opened her mouth again in a low voice.
“…I’m sorry. I never meant that.”
“I’m not misunderstanding you now.”
Eric answered firmly.
Yes.
He didn’t misunderstand her anymore, and he didn’t even get hurt by a single word she said. It was because he knew all of Chloe’s heart and understood most of her thoughts. Therefore, Eric no longer had to be obsessed with his victim mentality.
He tugged at her shoulder more lightheartedly.
“Let’s go shopping soon, so you can buy the things you like.”
“…Yes. Thank you.”
Chloe answered in a low voice without raising her head, still overcome with shame and embarrassment.
“Chloe.”
Eric said, tilting her face toward her.
“Raise her head.”
When she barely lifted her chin, Eric, with a laid-back smile, was right in front of her, so she closed her eyes tightly unknowingly.
Soon after, she heard Eric’s laugh.
“I love you.”
He whispered in a low voice, and before Chloe could answer, he covered her mouth. Chloe was startled. His soft lips, which had only touched her fingertips, touched her lips for the first time. Nonetheless, it wasn’t a bad feeling.
Never.
His breath was so hot, and it was irresistibly enchanting.
As Eric put his head around her back and laid her down, Chloe felt her chemise rise above her thighs and hugged his neck.
