Chapter 106
Chloe was surprised to hear that a guest had come to visit her.
It was because no one in the Capital could come to see her! No, was it just the Capital? There was no one in the South, where she had lived for a long time, and certainly no one in the North, so who was coming?
This was a very strange thing.
She was puzzled, and for some reason, Chloe felt uncomfortable with the soft smile that spread across Andrea’s lips. She answered with a slightly stiff face.
“Speaking of the guest, is it someone for me? Did you mistake it for my husband’s?”
“No. They definitely came to visit you.”
“Who is it?”
“I think you’ll know when you see it.”
Andrea answered, encouraging her as if telling her to go to the parlor right now and meet the guests…
Chloe was not very happy about this incident, as she had recently heard something she didn’t want to hear through Andrea. Still, she had heard a guest come, so she couldn’t refuse anymore. In the end, she had no choice but to ask to be prepared to welcome the guest.
Andrea happily smiled and changed her clothes.
Changing into simple indoor clothes, Chloe hurried to the parlor. However, her heart palpitations did not stop, and as always, it was the anxiety that came from the smell of unhappiness that followed happiness.
Instability after stability. Distortion behind silence. She had been through this process so many times that she couldn’t help but feel this nervous.
Tak.
Chloe, who was in front of the parlor, took a deep breath.
She didn’t know who would be there, but anyway, she should greet them without revealing her true feelings as much as possible. Thinking like that, she told Andrea to open the door, and Andrea slowly opened the door to the living room.
And the people she saw were truly amazing…!
“Editor-in-chief? And Jeffrey?”
It was DeHaan and Jeffrey!
DeHaan, the editor-in-chief of the newspaper she worked for in Heath, and Jeffrey, Chloe’s mentor!
Chloe looked at them with her eyes wide in surprise. All of them had the same soft smile as Andrea had on her face. It’s a perfect compliment. She was curious about why these people came to see her and how they got here, but she prioritized welcoming them over that.
The sense of foreboding she felt before seeing them was gone. Chloe smiled brightly and approached them.
“I’m so glad to see you! I missed you!”
She had never shown her emotions like this before, so Andrea, who was watching from behind, was inwardly surprised, and DeHaan and Jeffrey also looked at Chloe in wonder.
“If I had known you would welcome us like this, I would have come sooner.”
“That’s right. We thought a lot before coming, but if we had known it would be like this, we would have come without hesitation.”
DeHaan and Jeffrey spoke with a laugh. Chloe went to sit on the sofa across from them, and they, who had stood up as she came in, also sat down with her.
“What brings you here?”
When Andrea had poured the tea, Chloe immediately spoke to them as DeHaan answered with a smile.
“Chloe, I came to you because I was worried about how you were feeling.”
“That’s right. We came here because we wanted you to be healthy. Now, here’s a flower.”
Jeffrey held out a bouquet of flowers. It was a bouquet full of yellow roses and gypsophila. Chloe was once again moved and smiled brightly as she felt the anxiety she had been feeling melt away.
“Thank you. Thanks to you, I feel better.”
She pulled her chin as she held the bouquet.
DeHaan and Jeffrey made eye contact and smiled, seeing that she was clearly very happy. If they had known this would happen, they would have come here sooner.
And then they asked again.
“So, how are you these days?”
DeHaan questioned.
“The Capital was in chaos, so much so that even we in the countryside heard it.”
At that moment, Chloe’s mouth tightened.
Come to think of it, DeHaan and Jeffrey are reporters. In addition, local reporters had no contact whatsoever with the Marquis Aslan.
Could it be that the reason they came to see her was to get information about her husband? Could it be that they came here to hear about his recent quarrel with the royal family? They didn’t come here because they were worried about her, but rather to write an article…
Chloe suddenly became anxious, so she spoke rather sharply.
“I think everyone knows what my husband is doing. I don’t have anything to say about that.”
“No!”
DeHaan quickly shouted.
“We didn’t come to get information from you, Chloe. I want you to know this. We came because we were really worried about you. Please believe me.”
“I was worried about whether you were okay in this mess. That’s why we came here after much thought.”
They waved their hands and repeatedly denied it.
Her suspicions weren’t true.
She watched them quietly as they wore embarrassment on their face and the sincerity in their eyes. Looking at that, their words did not seem to be lies. Chloe bit her lower lip slightly, reflecting on the thought that she had once again harbored unnecessary doubts.
“Yes.”
She uttered in a quiet voice.
“I will believe it.”
Only then did the embarrassment that remained on DeHaan and Jeffrey’s faces disappear. They repeatedly said they were glad and leaned forward.
“Are you okay?”
“Yes. Are you okay?”
Chloe decided that they were genuinely worried about her. So, she answered in a much softer voice than before.
“I’m fine. Body, mind, everything.”
“Then that’s a good thing.”
“That’s right.”
But DeHaan and Jeffrey didn’t believe Chloe because she looked even worse than when she left Heath! It was puffy under her eyes, her hair was dull, and her skin texture was murky. Perhaps because she had lost more weight, the bones on the back of her hands seemed to stand out. It was a really sad sight.
Nonetheless, since they could not reveal these thoughts and feelings, they pretended not to know and said something else to Chloe.
“Are you planning on not coming back to Heath?”
“There are many people waiting for you. So does Sophia.”
Heath…
Chloe suddenly remembered Heath as the place she wanted to return to when she was at the royal ballroom.
Heath, Heath. The home of the heart.
She smiled softly.
Even now, when she closed her eyes, she could see the waves, so how could she think about not going back? She wanted to go to Heath even now, but she couldn’t say she would go because she had not only health problems but also life problems at stake.
In the end, she slowly shook her head and answered.
“I plan to go once I get better.”
Then, she added.
“I don’t know when I will get better…”
“Chloe, you can’t say that!”
DeHaan shouted.
“You will certainly get better. I’m sure.”
“That’s right. I think you will come back healthy because you are that kind of person.”
What kind of person was she? Chloe smiled again as she watched them trying to comfort her, and she felt her heart relax even more.
“Thank you.”
She put down the bouquet of flowers next to her, then grabbed her teacup.
“How have you two been doing?”
DeHaan and Jeffrey made eye contact, then smiled brightly and shrugged their shoulders.
“Us, whatever. We’re the same.”
“By the way. Something interesting happened in the newspaper recently. Would you like to hear about it?”
“Yes. I’d like to.”
They chatted for a while, and Chloe was able to remain in a good mood until the evening.
Eric went out.
This was because a summons came from the court.
It was not because of the lawsuit he placed against the Duchess but because he was sued by the royal family.
The complaint stated that unilateral notice of termination of the transaction was impossible and that this was a clear violation of the contract, so the transaction should be continued with a certain amount of penalty.
‘… That’s not even funny.’
Eric twisted his lips and muttered.
He knew the royal family would make this step. Since this was something he had been anticipating since he had already decided to cut off business with them, he had made solid preparations for this, so he wasn’t afraid of the current situation. He wasn’t very worried.
But…
‘I’m worried about Chloe.’
He didn’t know what they would do to her once they found out about his and Chloe’s relationship. So, Eric decided that he needed to control her surroundings more. But at the same time, he had the thought that he might be watching her every move too much.
This thought was not very pleasant, so he clicked his tongue briefly.
If Chloe got healthy.
…As long as she got well, he would open the door to her cage.
Thinking so, Eric stepped out of the courthouse.
At that time.
“Marquis Aslan.”
There was a familiar voice.
It was William.
