Because She Had A Time Limit, She Became The Villain's Daughter-in-law Chapter 22

Chapter 22

“Of course, he is the duke’s successor, so he is taking care of him with all his heart and soul!”

“Oh, thank you so much. Was the knight’s name Sven?”

In fact, there is no way for me not to know the name of the knight. Serena looked at me with her eyes shining as if she were having fun with the name of Sven.

The easiest way to solve a person’s alertness when checking a piece of information was to say the wrong information.

Rather than the post titled ‘Who is the prettiest person in the world?’ It would make more sense if the response is a ‘no’ exploded on the post titled ‘The prettiest person in the world is Yu Njin!’

As expected, the escort driver kindly fixed it.

“No, it’s Ludva di Carto. He was originally a deputy general, but he became the general five years ago.”

Ludva?

I’ve heard of that name somewhere.

‘At that time, I heard from Matilda that the deputy commander of the Knights was Ludva and the two of them had been out of town for several days.’ He was the one Sven mentioned.

He is Duke Icard’s eyes and has a good judge of character.

“If it’s a private lesson, I’ll try to find someone for you! The Earl of Lostry taught me everything.”

“Are the private lessons held at the greenhouse? I shouldn’t go for a walk there because I might get in the way.”

“Oh, it’s not the greenhouse, but behind the rose garden.”

As expected, the power of wrong information is brilliant.
If you’re human, you have an instinct to correct others’ mistakes, then to say something you wouldn’t know.

“Yeah. Beginners shouldn’t go looking around. You shouldn’t go all alone.”

The rose garden should be around the corner.

Sometimes when Lisa went with me on my walk, strangely, she didn’t guide me well.

After sending off the guards, I asked Lisa casually.

“However, people don’t really go to the rose garden. The name sounds like some kind of tourist destination, so why isn’t everyone going there?”

Lisa began to organize the jewelry with the clothes I received as a gift, and her words were a bit murmuring.

In the meantime, Serena added words to it one by one. ‘This frill’s not good, but it’s got too few gems on it…’

Lisa answered Serena with eyes.

“The late Lady took care of the Rose Garden herself.”

“Really?”

“Yeah. She likes flowers.”

“…Ah.”

“Actually…when I went out into town, Miss Laria gave me flowers, both the escort drivers and I thought of her for a moment.”

I was sorry to have kept them in line for an hour without thinking, but I didn’t know they were thinking about that.

‘No wonder she looked puzzled.’

I swear I did it without knowing anything. Nevertheless, it was similar to Matilda. Laria, and the little act she did, has suddenly reminded them of her. As Sven said, Matilda must have been loved by everyone, even the Duke.

“When I see you, I think of her a lot, Ms. Matilda. Both of your auras are very much alike.”

Lisa bit her lower lip slightly, then sighed and continued.

“Anyway, the Duke is heartbroken, but he didn’t take any steps into the rose garden. That’s why we don’t go there either.”

“I see. Anyway, I’ll change to one of these dresses. I’m going to thank my father.”

When I quickly turned the subject around, Lisa began to put several dresses on my body without thinking.

“You’ve been coughing a lot lately, aren’t you feeling well?”

“Oh, yeah, it’s a little…”

I made a few cough-resistant gestures a few more times.

“Everyone would feel burdened if they knew I was this sick. Right?”

Everything I said was supposed to get to Duke Icard. Lisa just sighed as hard as she could with her face.

“I don’t want to be a nuisance to you and Evan.”

“What?”

“I couldn’t support Evan, and I got married with a large amount of debt, let alone a dowry, but I am this fragile. So, I feel sorry for my father who brought me here…”

” Don’t think that way, Miss Laria.” Lisa’s eyes seemed to be slightly teary

I always think about it, but I should have possessed a rich, wicked woman. Everyone would be troubled, though I would love it because it suits me.

‘Then, I would have won the world by using everything the wicked woman had, money and family.’

However, all I had was a weak body, a broken family, and a sense of conscience left behind. So, I should at least use this…

“This is the best, Laria. The buttons are very sophisticated.”

“Excuse me.”

Lisa shed her eyes on Serena, who was choosing another dress while wiping her tears.

“Aren’t you a doctor? Aren’t you sad about this situation? Why don’t you mind Laria’s coughing?”

Serena shrugged and spoke naturally.

“I’m as serious as I handle medicine.” she said quickly after she chose a third dress, but not a dress recommended by Serena and Lisa, respectively.

“This is pretty. Let’s wear this and go to your father. Oh, wait, I’ll prepare a small gift in return.”

She strikes while the iron is hot, so perhaps all she has gathered together acted urgently if she had their desired information.

I will go to my father and the person who hit my husband as well, right now!

“Yes, young master. You have to endure this much pain.”

Ludva stared at Evan, who was in front of him with cold eyes.

He didn’t think of him as a thirteen-year-old child, but he was a little surprised since Evan was better than he thought.

He was sure Evan showed outstanding performance in the examination when he was in the academy. Evan was similar to Duke Icard, who is famous for his sword skills since childhood.

No matter if he is an adult, Ludva is not confident of winning easily if he fought with the same sword.

So, Evan is training with a short wooden sword while he was using a real sword.

“Since Matilda died…”

Evan stared at him with a rebellious look and ran endlessly, but when the name Matilda appeared, he would bite his lower lip.

“How many people lived in pain.”

By this point, he would have collapsed, but Evan stood upright despite his injuries. His looks don’t resemble Matilda at all. He had a terrible interior that looks just like his father…

Ludva, who had loved Matilda for a long time while watching her from behind, hated Evan so much.

It was just like that. The two men in Icard’s family took Matilda away from him.

“You should never be happy.”

Another man he hated, Carlaudin, looked like he was broken after Matilda left. In addition, there is no real way he could bully Carlaudin.

“The Duke’s heir is a seed of misfortune.”

So, the boy, who let Matilda go untraced, wanted to ruin him with his own hands.

Even if he is still young.

Evan took his breath against Ludva with a weapon that is no match for him. Now, he felt nauseous just by looking at Ludva’s blue uniform.

The person he is thinking of is Laria.

She was the only person in his life who treated him warmly.

Laria is like a ray of warm sunshine.

Laria, who is so nice to him, is a seed of misfortune.

Laria, who looked happy just being together…

However, as Ludva said, there are so many people who are unhappy because of him, to the point of them stripping away his happiness.

They are all the same.

Everyone didn’t say anything in front of him, but that’s all they have been thinking.

He had only vaguely guessed, but now it’s clear.

A gloomy child like himself isn’t fit being with Laria. He fixed his wooden sword and recalled Laria, who was crying because of him a few days ago, saying, “I wanted to get along with you.”

While Evan is being abused under the guise of training, all he could think about was Laria.

Without having any idea what Laria is doing right now.
