I'm Divorcing My Tyrant Husband

I answered casually.

"What do you mean, contact with His Majesty? There's nothing like that."

In fact, Alexander tried to meet her. He tried to get in touch with her everyday, pretending that he had something he wanted to say, such as having a meal!

Maybe he was concerned about the kiss last time.

But I refused everything because I didn't want to meet him for unnecessary things.

"Why is that?"

I took my eyes off the furniture catalog and looked back at the maids. Only then did I notice the signs of maids disappointment on their faces.

"What's wrong with you? With the looked of a child who didn't get a gift."

"Oh, it's nothing."

That was then.

"Your Majesty, I'm back."

"Okay, Caleb. How was your class today? Are you sure you're listening to the teacher?"

"Of course. Didn't Her Majesty personally tell me to follow the teacher's instructions? I wouldn't dare to obey your order."

"Is there any difficulty keeping up with the progress of the class? The teacher said that at your age, you are making progress at an unprecedented rate."

"Yes, I am enjoying studying thanks to the constant supervision of the Empress Dowager. Thank you very much."

As always, Caleb responded with trust and respect.

Just talking to him made me feel good.

'If I had a younger sibling, would it feel like this?'

In fact, considering the age of my previous life, he would not be a younger brother, but a nephew.

Caleb, who was polite and kind, and realized his passion when he taught one thing, was a child worth teaching.

'Caleb is one of the few healings in this tired imperial palace.'

Then one of the maids said.

"By the way, Caleb, didn't you feel anything strange about the Empress?"

"Yeah? Strange things?"

"These days, she've been strangely calm, and strange rumors have circulated about the Empress. The place where Caleb takes this class is very close to the place where the Empress is, so I think there's something that comes into your ears...."

Caleb's face was strangely lit by the maid's words.

"As for Her Majesty....."

I saw it for a moment.

There was little sign of ridicule on his face.

'That kind Caleb laughs at me? Oh, I must have misunderstood.'

"As for Her Majesty the Empress... I don't think you need to worry too much."

"Oh, is there anything particularly suspicious about it?"

"Yeah. I'll let you know when I know for sure."

Caleb, who said so, laughed very nicely. It was a face that gave everyone confidence.

"If Caleb says so, we have to believe it."

"It's because Caleb is very devoted to Her Majesty the Empress."

"Because I have decided to dedicate my whole body and my heart to the Empress."

'No, there's no need for that...… '

By the time of divorce, Caleb should also be independent, but looking at him now, I started to worry a little about what to do if he said he wouldn't be independent.

Anyway, the interior plan of the Empress Palace was progressing step by step. The furniture craftsmen completed the work on time, and the construction was also completed.

'Okay, the empress's palace has been repaired, and all the furniture and interior decorations are due to arrive today.'

I thought, drawing a line through each item on the checklist.

'If we mobilize enough manpower, we can finish arranging the furniture in one day. Then the house I've been dreaming of is finally complete.'

I couldn't help but feel refreshed.

My heart was pounding at the thought that I would soon be able to face the Empress Palace I had dreamed of.

'Now, I'm saying goodbye to my life under the same roof as Aisha.'

But when he was kind in front of the Empress Palace.

I realized that something was seriously wrong.

*****

The acting at this dinner was perfect. No one dared to doubt it.

It was unexpected for him to kiss Robelia, but at least it would have played a big role in making sure everyone knew that she belonged to him.

Robelia struggled, but in the end could not escape from his scheme.

Everything turned out the way he wanted it.

'By the way, everything would have gone according to my plan.....'

Alone in the quiet office, Alexander thought.

'Why am I so impatient?'

I couldn't concentrate on my work all day. This was the first time in my life.

No, not just today.

Alexander felt tired and ran his long fingers through his bangs.

When I closed my eyes, I thought of her.

Her face, which seemed painful when he paid attention to it.

That deep fan's eyebrows and lonely eyes.

At that time, while with her, Robelia opened her eyes as if she was left alone in this world.

It's like saying that the empty seat next to her can't be filled with anything like that...

'I thought it wouldn't be easy because she's different from the average person, but she's really impregnable.'

Alexander bit his lip.

'But even so, there is no need to make such a face, is there? With me next to you!

He sighed and looked at his right hand.

Her waist, the hand that held her hand.

Even when she was around, it seemed that her vacancy was not filled, but she is different.

Just by being her in his hands, he felt a perfect sense of satisfaction.

Although there have always been many cases where other people were not happy with their eyes, this was the first time this has happened.

He was more sincere to her than he thought, and she seemed more unwilling to fall for him than he thought.

'I thought she was mine, at least she was going to be mine soon...'

So far, he thought he was close enough to reach out a little more.

However, after the last Friday dinner, the feelings I felt when I thought of her have changed completely.

Like smoke without substance, it's going to scatter even if I hold her hand, like a bluebird trapped in a cage that's too big and it's like it's flying through the grates.

There was no sense of relief that it was 'his own'.

Rather, I am afraid that she will run away at any moment. It was the same no matter how much he increased the number of guards over her.

'Is it this painful to have a dėsɨrė for talent people?'

He asked himself, but could not find an answer.

As for myself, it was the first time in my life that I felt this way.

It was then. A visitor came to him.

It was secretary Robert.

"The repair of the Empress's Palace is expected to be completed soon."

He politely presented the report.

Alexander said after scanning the report.

"This period of time is still enough to prepare something."

"Yes. Would you like to prepare a gift to commemorate the completion of the Empress Palace?"

"Yeah."

I couldn't give up because it was painful to know that my efforts so far had no effect.

You've come too far for that. He couldn't imagine losing her or giving up on her now.

"I'm going to gift her some furniture."

Now that she didn't even want to meet him, the moment when the Empress Palace was completed was a great opportunity.

And it wasn't Alexander who would miss that opportunity.

'There are countless options that the Emperor of the Empire can take to get his hands on one person.'

Alexander repeated.

'No matter how special she is, there's no way she won't fall for any of them. So I want her to come over to me as soon as possible. Please, before I lose my temper and do anything by any means.'

*****

"What is this?"

Robelia's astonished voice echoed through the air. Alexander looked and her and smiled at her like a tiger.

"As you can see."

"Not as you can see. Say it properly."

"Isn't the palace almost repaired? I bought new furniture for the new palace, so I got a new design that would suit the Empress."

They are in front of the Empress's palace. There are countless carriages of merchant groups, and merchants are unloading a hundreds of furniture.

"I don't know how much enthusiasm His Majesty devoted to this matter. The most luxurious furniture was made by decorating the highest walnut wood with gold, platinum, ruby and sapphire."

The merchant with a moustache explained excitedly.

"Look at this beautiful curve! I don't know how many craftsmen it took to squeeze these out. His Majesty did not spare any effort to ask artisans around the world to make the most beautiful design of furniture."

"Because you like gorgeous things, I think this is your preference."

Alexander spoke in a caring voice.

"I hope you like it."

Despite these surprising and valuable gifts, Robelia was not happy at all.

Rather... The goal was in a slump.

Even at this moment, the furniture she prepared with all her heart and soul was loaded on the cart and had been heading for the palace.

But why does it overlap like this!

"Your Majesty, I apologize while you're busy. Can I just order the arrangement of the furniture according to this drawing?"

"In your busy schedule, I'm sorry, Your Majesty. Can the furniture be arranged according to this drawing?"

"Show me. Robelia, I hope you can see this. Although it is similar to the existing layout, there are modifications because of additional furniture. Considering your route and convenience, how is the modification?"

Robelia woke up from the shock. Alexander was asking her opinion, showing the floor plan.

Merchants and workers were also trying to bring furniture into the Empress Palace. If this is the case, it will be impossible.

"Wait. Why did you do something I didn't even ask for?"

"Huh?"

Alexander looked surprised, but the merchant group owner nearby was frightened.

They hugged their head, screaming like a rat in a jar, perhaps because they thought Alexander would be angry and kill me.

'Although it was written in the original that Alexander was a merciless tyrant.'

Of course, what they thought didn't happen.

Robelia nailed a wedge in front of the trembling pupils of the merchant and the secretary.

"I had my own interior plan, and I had ordered all the furniture. It was scheduled to be delivered today according to the Imperial Palace construction. But what if you order furniture without a word to me?"

In the face of the Emperor, even criticizing him for not liking the gift he gave!

It was unimaginable for others.
