My Husband Hates Me, But He Lost His Memories Chapter 59.1

Chapter 59 – Part 1

“Let's go, Charlotte. Just in case, you should keep calling me 'Doctor Thorpe' until we leave Veronis.”

“Yes, I will keep that in mind. Come on.”

Charlotte hurriedly packed her things. Even though I wanted to carry some of them, Charlotte insisted that she should carry most of them, so I could only bring with me only a small bag with gold coins and magic tools on my shoulder.

Before leaving the room, I double-checked the letter I had written to Theodore and the divorce papers. If I put it on the desk, he'll find these right away.

In the letter was a farewell note and my speculation about the crimes the Everetts and Owen might have committed.

In addition, I had enclosed a document that summarized the information collected through the investigations.

…I had a feeling that Theodore already knew all this.

'…I hope I can be of some help at least.'

Since it's the last… I wanted to leave all the bad feelings behind. Theodore may have hurt me, but he wasn't a bad person.

“Doctor, let's go.”

“Huh… Yes, I'm coming.”

Next to the letter on the desk were Camillus' coin and the peridot necklace that Theodore had given me.

Since I hadn't brought up the coin yet, he'd just think he lost it. Without even dreaming that I had it.

And the peridot necklace…

…I don't know why, but I couldn't bring myself to dispose of it. Maybe the remaining lingering feelings that I didn't know were contained in that necklace.

So, now let's leave it with that necklace.

Let's drop everything and leave.

Where no one knows me.

“…Let's go, Charlotte.”

I finally opened the door and left the room. As this road was to leave everything behind, please be smooth.

“This way!”

As we entered a deserted street, a young man from the errand guild was waiting for us, promptly guiding us.

We ran out of time, so Charlotte and I hurried. Getting out of the Valentino residence was surprisingly easy, perhaps because of the disguise, but someone might find the sleeping knights while patrolling the corridors.

But since Jane was my double, they'd think I was still asleep right now. None of the knights dared to break into the Madam's bedroom, so they would probably just give a brief glance from the doorway.

However, the problem came after it was reported to Theodore that the knights had fallen asleep. Theodore will undoubtedly try to check for himself, and he would immediately realize that it's Jane who's lying in my bed.

'…I might get caught in an hour at the earliest. If I'm lucky, they'll find out the next morning.'

I wonder if Theodore would dispatch the knights to capture me… I don't know. However, judging from how he had confined and monitored me, there was a high possibility that he would try to find me.

In any case, from his point of view, he would be offended by me running away.

'…Sorry. For being a nuisance like this.'

Soon, this would be a topic of conversation throughout the entire kingdom. It's clear what kind of stories would come and go. I felt a bit sorry for Theodore, who will be in the middle of the gossip, but… those rumors would soon subside. And as for me, this was for the best.

This was the only way I could be happy.

Can't I be happy once in my life? My life was always accompanied by bad luck, but I still want to spend the end of my life in peace.

In a place where there is no noble society, no Everett, no Valentino…

If only I could live as my own person.

And if I could finally close my eyes wishing Charlotte happiness, I wouldn't be sad anymore.

“This carriage! Hurry!”

The young man beckoned in front of the maroon carriage. Charlotte and I quickly got into the carriage.

Tak, as soon as the door closed, the carriage started to depart.

The carriage carrying us ran for a long time. If I were to peek at the outside scenery by slightly pulling the curtains, I could see the somewhat desolate northern scene compared to the central and southern parts of the country.

The world, covered with thick darkness, was silent. The carriage has now completely left the Valentino estate and entered a new road. I stopped peeping outside, straightened my posture, and closed my eyes.

It used to be this way. Where I've lived for over a year and a half.

The river that runs along the castle and the green forget-me-nots nearby, the golden reeds and red maple leaves, the tall and gigantic mountain range that comes into view when looking north, and the large Tree of Origin in the garden of Valentino residence…
