I Become The Wife of The Male Lead Chapter 44

Chapter 44: Heilon (2) (Unedited)

“I have something to say.” Sigren's expression was serious.

“What?” Seeing his expression, Fiona was a little nervous. 

“Remember what you said before?”

Fiona's brows furrowed. What did she say? She said a lot to Sigren. 

Sigren looked straight into Fiona's bewildered eyes. “If i need help, you would always be there for me.”

“Ohh.. I did.”

Sigren raised the corners of his lips to some degree. However, instead of looking like a sneer, it more looked like a sad smile. “I think, now is the time.”

Of course, Fiona said those words to Sigren. He was sad at that time. “Why do you think so?”

Sigren glanced at Fiona. He confessed his own birth to her two years ago. At that time, Fiona listened to him with a quiet look. While he was talking, he feared that she would change her attitude after hearing all the stories. However, when he finally spoke frankly to her about the unresolved hatred for those who killed his mother, Fiona hugged him. Then that was it. Fiona had no particular reaction to Sigren's past. Even after that, she was still kind and always said that he was precious. She would also make sure he was happy. Sigren always found serenity in her words and actions. Pain, anger, hatred, grief…. All destructive emotions had become faded. But if she disappeared, would he be able to continue to live? It was hard to even imagine.

“Sigren?”

Hearing Fiona's strange voice, Sigren slowly opened his mouth. “Fiona, I'm alone in this unfamiliar place now. There are enemies everywhere. Isn't it natural that you want an old friend to be with you?”

“What about the Duke?” Fiona asked back with some skepticism.

“The duke….?” SIgren raised an eyebrow in dissatisfaction. “You really don't think I'll be mentally comforted by Abel, do you?”

“…” Fiona had nothing to say in return. Sure, Abel would give him practical help, but Sigren's emotional side? She was skeptical about it. 

“He'd rather say do not be weak.”

Well, that would be more likely to happen.

While agonizing over, Fiona recalled a certain someone. 

Eunice. 

Sigren was about to meet Eunice, the heroine, and then fell in love. Of course, she couldn't tell him this. 

“You may have close friend.”

“Who?”

“That… you're going to meet a pretty and sweet girl soon? Like, love.”

Sigren looked at Fiona with lukewarm eyes. “Me?”

Fiona nodded and emphasized one more. “Yes, love.”

“I didn't know you'd try to appease me with such a good story.” Sigren said with a dissatisfied face.

“Good story…” Fiona looked at Sigren. He wasn't angry. But he just answered her in a tone of.. discouragement.

“Yeah.. from your point of view, I might be annoying now.”

“No way.” It would have been easier for her if he were to be angry, but speaking like this, it was strangely picking her conscience. 

“No, I understand, Fiona.” Sigren put on a smile-like expression. It was a cynical expression of his. “Actually, most people thought of me that way.”

Fiona wanted to wrap her head around her head because of her own stupidity. Did she stimulate his childhood trauma? Sigren was abused as a child. But she didn't mean it that way.

Sigren then lightly stroked Fiona's hair. “I guess I made an unreasonable request. Just forget it.”

Contrary to that gentle act, the smile on his lips was bitter. And Fiona's guilt reached its maximum. Sigren's back still had the scars of his childhood. Every time Fiona saw the scars, her heart ached. 

'Yeah! He's just like the kid who just graduated from high school, now living alone in a foreign country. Yeah! Too harsh!'

Besides, emotionally, he was the protagonist she raised for 5 years. She couldn't help but feel weaker when she saw him than other characters. 

Whether Fion was in confuse or not, Sigren slowly turned around. It seemed like he was going out of the room. Perhaps, because of the atmosphere, his back felt very lonely. 

Thump, thump.

The sound of footsteps was also exceptionally heavy.

Fiona rolled her eyes, then hurriedly grabbed his clothes. “Come on.. Wait a bit SIgren.”

“What?”

Ah, fuck it. She had a friendship with him for five years. “Then, I'll stay.”

Sigren's lips were twitching. Then he turned around and looked at her. “You don't have to force yourself like that.”

“Forced? I'm not.”

“Really?”

Fiona smiled as usual. “If my existence helps you, i will stay.”

The usual Sigren was a confident and dignified person. The fact that he was weak now in front of her meant that it was unusually difficult. 

“What do you think friends for? Well… it's also good to stay here. I could see the capital as much as I can. Besides, the employees of Heilon mansion are all friendly, the food is all my taste.”

Yeah, she had nothing to lose… right? 

Fiona then recalled some annoying matter. Arrendt existence was one of them. 

Well, she decided to be here. If the original plot seemed to cause harm to her, then she could overturn it all. Or maybe go to Abel. But seeing both Abel and Arrendt were not on good terms, she didn't know, maybe Abel would take an initiative and deal with him. 

Fiona smiled happily and looked at Sigren. 

Of course, Fiona did not notice, but Sigren, who achieved his own purpose, also smiled satisfactorily. She was still caring for him, she yielded. To the point, she chose to stay by his side. 

The lonely appearance Sigren had before had disappeared.
