“Drunk?”

Incan smirked and took out some herbs. He put them in his mouth and swallowed them.

After a while, his eyes became clearer.

His speech also accelerated.

“Is this enough?”

‘What is that…’

Did such a herb exist?

Haah, such a herb would be rather useful at a drinking party.

Yelena stared fiercely at Incan and opened her mouth. “What do you want?”

“…”


“What do you want in return?”

Incan did not answer.

He just slowly glanced from Yelena’s wrist, which was trapped in his grasp, to her nape.

Yelena frowned at his actions and soon widened her eyes.

“No way.”

“…?”

“Are you crazy?”

Chilling goosebumps sprang up all over Yelena’s body, more than she had ever previously experienced.

When he saw Yelena’s appalled expression, Incan asked, “Weren’t we on the same page?”

“What?”

“Didn’t you feel the same way as I did?”

Yelena was so shocked that her mouth hung wide open.

“What? Why would I…?”

“Didn’t you look at me with a burning gaze? Yesterday, you stared at me the whole time when you were with me.”

“That’s—”

Those were merely the eyes of doubt and observation while Yelena tried to find a sign of suspicious behavior.

Yelena, who didn’t know that Incan would misunderstand, puffed her mouth like a carp.

“… You’re mistaken, okay? That’s your mistake. Do you understand? You’re mistaken!”

“Really? Well… it doesn’t matter.”

“What?”

“I’ve been thinking about this since the beginning.”

Incan’s eyes rested on Yelena’s face.

“Your beauty is wasted on that monster.”

“…”

“I never thought I would be impressed by the monster’s eyes, but yes, I have to admit it.”

Yelena’s eyebrows furrowed.

She couldn’t bear to listen to the rest of his nonsense.

‘Monster.’ The word kept echoing in her ears.

‘Just now, this man said he was a monster.’

Incan continued to talk, unaware that Yelena’s eyes were getting sharp.

“Did you want the position of the duchess? To become the mother of the future duke? Yes, well, I don’t care what reasons made you want to become the monster’s wife.”

“…”

“I’m making this proposal for you. You’ve had a hard time being the wife of a monster, but sometimes, some tribulations are necessary…”

“Sh…”

“What?”

“Shut up!”

Yelena genuinely couldn’t listen to Incan anymore.

Yelena, whose eyes were filled with rage, kicked Incan’s shin as hard as she could from under the table.

Bam!

“Ugh!”

Instead of stopping there, Yelena picked up the bottle of wine and smashed Incan’s head with it.

“Gasp!”

Only then did Incan let go of Yelena’s wrist.

Yelena held her wrist that had been squeezed by Incan and shouted as she stepped back, “I’ve been listening to you since the beginning, and do you know who the monster is? You’re the monster!”

“Wife… now…”

“Don’t call me wife, you scumbag! My husband is the only one who can call me that!”

Yelena gritted her teeth.

“He’s not a monster. He’s my husband! Do you understand?”

Incan’s face was fiercely distorted.

He pushed the table over and moved as if he was trying to catch Yelena. It was then.

Run!

Loud footsteps could be heard from outside.

Yelena’s face brightened while Incan’s face hardened.

The door of Incan’s residence suddenly flew open.

“Madam!”

At the door were several soldiers, who seemed to have rushed in, and Abbie, who looked worried.

“Abbie…”


“Madam, are you all right?”

Without stopping, Abbie ran to Yelena and looked at her.

Yelena sighed in relief, releasing the anxiety from her body.

***

What Yelena was wearing on her left wrist was a magic bracelet.

The bracelet came in a pair and had the function of sending a signal from one side, causing the other bracelet to ring whenever it received a signal.

Yelena decided to use it to periodically send a signal to Abbie about once every five minutes.

And in the circumstance that the signal was to be cut off, Yelena instructed Abbie to bring soldiers into the room immediately.

Incan was immediately taken to Duke Mayhard, and Yelena picked out only the part containing Incan’s confession of the medicine experiment in the video clip and presented it as evidence.

As a result, Yelena’s goal of making a splendid contribution by exposing Incan’s true nature and condemning him was only half successful.
