Chapter 192
[192]
The banquet was the day Karen was introduced to Prince Gwiz’s government.
‘Is Prince Gwizu sane?’
Everyone was shocked to see Karen next to Gwiz. At first, Karen’s beauty, and lastly, Prince Gwiz’s immorality of taking her ex-lover’s daughter as a government.
You’re going to have Catherine’s daughter as your lover?’
‘Isn’t it a relationship that could be close?
“How can you be so disgusting….’
Many people at the banquet thought that it was extremely perverse to have a lover’s daughter again, apart from that, although Kengy was one corner in power. Even those who did not know much about shame could not have done it to the eyes of the people around them. However, the problem was that Crown Prince Gwiz was a man who did not hesitate at all.
“It’s fun, it’s fun.”
Prince Gwiz enjoyed the eyes of the people. Others thought he was committing a monstrous act of doing nothing, but this was nothing compared to his real hobby. Gwiz picked up a glass and slowly savored the eyes and voices of people. And there was Icela Evans, who was white with fear among the people.
“Isela?”
“Cah, Cah, Karen….”
‘Why is that here?’
Gwiz was in a subdued. His men failed to obey orders. I told you to take care of Icela Evans. I wanted to blame them for their mistakes, but they were all dead or gone. It was good to write down those who knew his dirtyness, even the vulgar ones who didn’t have to worry like bugs.
“Did you pull out Evans’ eyes? I would have told you to put the blue eyes aside.”
“I, Your Highness… it’s… The people who went to deal with it haven’t come yet.”
That night, when the men who were supposed to return after Icela Evans were not back, Gwiz was clapping his fingers and picking out what could be driven by the insurrection of Berdyck’s wealth.
So far, Verdick’s wealth has not been confiscated but left intact because he has the business skills to make large amounts of money even bigger. Even if he maintains a relatively friendly relationship with Berdick, he doesn’t know what will happen if family affairs are directly intertwined.
It’s better to get rid of what may become a fiasco from the beginning. The problem would have been solved if Berdick hadn’t rushed to the scene just before the documents bearing Prince Gwiz’s seal were handed over.
“Your Grace, my lady has made a big mistake. Please accept this and forgive me, though it’s a small matter.”
If Berdick hadn’t brought gold coins into the chest, curled his hair and begged them, Prince Gwiz would have made it the biggest entertainment in recent years to wipe out the Evans family because of Icela Evans.
“If I had saved you, you would have quietly disappeared from my sight. Why did you show up here?’
Prince Gwiz was displeased that the materials he had missed were sticking in front of his eyes. The knotty problem always displeased him. If she was lucky enough to be born as Verdick’s daughter, she should have disappeared into the countryside so that she wouldn’t she?
But how dare you participate in a royal banquet before long, without knowing the gratitude for saving your life? Prince Gwiz laughed furiously as he opened the white face of Isela. It’s an act that’s very demanding to be cut off.
“Icella, you’re safe. I’m happy.”
But unlike Gwiz, Karen was greeted with a smile on her face.
Gwiz’s belly was twisted as they seemed to be delighted with each other’s survival by smiling brightly. If someone’s head breaks, they’ll scream in fear.
“What are you up to?”
“What about me? I’m just glad you kept your word.”
Karen smiled and waved to Isela.
“I guess life is tough as well. Actually, I didn’t expect much to see you again.”
“…….”
“I didn’t think you wouldn’t keep your promise.”
“Ha.”
Gwiz snorted and saw Karen’s relaxed appearance. It is never good for him to have a survivor who witnessed his secret hobby. It was fortunate that Isela’s father was Berdick Evans, not someone else. He’s a good judge of the pros and cons.
But the fact that Isella was alive was as good as the bomb outside the hands of Gwiz. And most of all, Karen Haier and Isela Evans know each other.
Prince Gwiz watched them as if they were watching an interesting play. But Karen did nothing but greet the trembling Isela.
Why don’t you ask for help?’
Gwiz wondered. Although Karen expected to whisper, hand over something, or ask for help, they just said hello and moved away again. Isela’s expression was not natural, and Berdyk must have warned, but it was not understandable that she came here.
“Isela.”
“…Lord Zion.”
Gwiz saw a young man who was Isela Evans’ partner.
“Hmm.”
I could have known.
It was a young and handsome knight. Gwiz looked down at Karen and Isella’s head in turn and laughed.
‘You’re throwing your head at me. You’re going to use the same trick as your mother.’
Gwiz was going to make one of his inferiors Karen’s husband. I won’t make the same mistake as Catherine did. Karen’s husband had to be more humble, and she should be a man who can’t find attraction.
He intended to confer a title to one of his body’s rescuers and marry Karen. You can also get loyalty from your subordinates and never escape to her husband’s estate under the pretext of marriage. A man who wields violence is even better.
“Who’s that guy?”
“… Sir Zion Electra, Your Grace.”
But the man next to Isela was a young knight with clean skin and a strong body. He wasn’t the man he could give Karen. Gwiz looked back on his memory. It was a very popular article for women in society.
Karen Haier, have you decided on the husband you wanted?
“…yes, Your Grace.”
Unlike Catherine, Gwiz tried to make Karen take a different path. During Catherine’s time, Gwiz chose a man of gentle character for Catherine’s own sake. neat in appearance
But Catherine betrayed him and ran away to Haier. I was going to give Karen a dirty man. If Karen tries to choose another man like Catherine. If you want to run away. The smile on my ear has deepened.
“I will respect your choice.”
There are times when you wonder what the consequences would be if you made a different choice at the crossroads of choice in the past. There are also times when I regret my actions. Prince Gwiz sometimes regrets not being able to kill Catherine, who betrayed him.
“Whatever you choose, I’ll allow you to marry him.”
If Karen chooses that scruffy knight and has the whimsical idea of running away from him, like Catherine. Then, Katherine’s share should be paid by her daughter.
“Thank you for your kindness.”
Karen bent her knees slightly, thanked Gwiz, and looked over the banquet hall and smiled. And the gaze finally stopped at Isela and Zion. Gwiz didn’t miss it. But Karen did not call Zion Electra.
“Call me Dulan Lloyd who’s not here.”
Prince Gwiz felt a little fresh about his predictions being missed one after another, but he was more displeased than that. It was annoying to make sure that his plans seemed to be wrong and that he kept on being wrong.
“Who’s Duran Lloyd again?”
“I’m Karen Haier’s former fiance.”
“Haha, that’s… That’s blatant. You’re running away with the help of your lover?”
“…I know what you’re thinking, but it’s not, Your Highness.”
Karen denied it by shaking her head, but Prince Gwiz did not believe it. According to the paper given by King Sijon, it was just before he became an adult and came to the capital city that he broke his engagement. Since he has been close to his relatives since he was young, he is in a close relationship regardless of his form. a more intimate relationship than anyone else
“I won’t allow it.”
“It’s not the kind of relationship you think it is. As a doctor… He’s the one who’s going to fix you.”
“Leave what the royal doctors haven’t fixed to your fiance?”
“…if you leave your body to him… I’m sure… I’ll get better.”
“That doesn’t sound credible at all.”
Prince Gwiz was having fun teasing Karen with clumsy tricks, so he tapped her on the forehead. When I decided to kill him anyway, I wanted to play with him more. I try to live and talk nonsense, but it doesn’t make sense. How to make this stupid little thing cry.
“Believe me, Your Highness. No one in the world knows that much about infertility.”
“How much do you know if a 25-year-old priest knows? The doctors around me are the ones who have accumulated several times his knowledge. And believe what the priest says, which is not properly identified, that he should be treated? I can play with my life line more easily than anyone else. It looks like you’re trying to get back at me.”
“…so, um… Your Highness loves me….”
“Ha, ha, ha, ha.”
Prince Gwiz laughed and giggled. You still say that.
That’s funny. Prince Gwiz laughed breathlessly and stopped laughing. Karen faced him with a blank face.
“So you’d better not expect the Dulan Lloyd to give you freedom. Do you think I’ll be a good judge of that? Do you think you’ll let your lover ask for help?”
“Lovers…”
Karen’s face was dark.
“So deliver the person I love.”
And he continued to chew a little.
“You’ll see if you see Duran.”
***
Duran accepted the royal letter pointing at him.
The intense curiosity that captivated him never let him go. Karen Haier calls herself. She identified herself as her husband. What are they thinking? Catherine chose Lord Haier as her husband. Because he had a child. But Duran also found that Catherine was not completely emotionless about Lord Haier.
Catherine had a good relationship with Lord Haier until her death. The Haier lord loved her and she was willing to receive his love.
Karen identified Dulan as her husband.
What do they expect from him?
‘Why?’
Duran wanted to ask themselves in the past.
What happened between Karen and herself? What kind of relationship did they build? I wondered about the times that he doesn’t know now. Maybe. Maybe.
“Dulan Lloyd has arrived, Your Grace.”
“Let me hear you.”
Duran walked into the fancy room.
Tensions, expectations and anxiety were mixed, but I couldn’t help but go to the prince’s call.
“Hold your head.”
“…yes.”
Duran looked up.
There were two people looking down at Duran in the colorful room. Duran was suffocated. Karen was really, really, so gorgeous and overwhelmingly beautiful. It was a splendid performance that could not be compared to what I saw in the temple from far away.
Duran seemed to be crushed by the splendor that even felt daunting. I felt like I was getting miserable. And next to Karen, a middle-aged man with a cruel impression sat watching him.
“…Dew, Dew, Dulan Lloyd… It is.”
Duran barely introduced himself. Still, he came here. Here….
“K, Pooh, hahaha! This is a masterpiece! Yeah, Karen, I owe you an apology.”
“I told you.”
“I didn’t know it was that bad!”
Prince Gwiz laughed like crazy. And a long time later, I told Karen.
“Okay, I’ll make that your husband.”
