Ezet was overwhelmed with it.

“I’m scared…”

“I see.”

As she appealed in a crawling voice, Edmond neatly said yes and covered Ezet’s body with a blanket.
Then, he cut his arm and lay on his side to widen the distance that he was close to.

It’s a lie to say that he’s not disappointed, but he got a clear answer from her.
And at times like this, he knew exactly what to do.
It was good.

“…Edmond.”

“Yes.”

She could feel Edmond’s gaze even when she had her back turned.
However, the back of the head did not sting or tickle.
Instead, it felt like something warm was covering it.

It’s like a comfortable relief.

She felt like she was hugging her husband even though she was away from him.
Ezet relaxed a little, sighed, and straightened herself.

As she turned her head, she saw Edmond looking at him with a soft face.

“Don’t you feel tired matching me?”

“Have you not guessed? I’ve always been a self-indulgent low-key, perv villain, Eromond.”

“Don’t be mean.”

Edmond chuckled as Ezet pouted and whined.

“There’s only one thing I want, Ezet.”

“What is it?”

“For you to be happy by my side.”

He loves her now and wishes her happiness but hates her when she is not with him.
He was lonely and empty.

But if she was distressed and unhappy in his arms, he was also not what Edmond wanted.

He wanted to be with the woman he loves.
He hoped she would be happy because of himself.
Sex, cuteness, pride, and recognition are secondary factors.

There’s something he wants from Ezet and something he wants to do with her, but if Ezet doesn’t want them, there’s no reason to ask for them.
Nothing exists above her happiness.

“That’s all I need.”

“Then that’s all I need, too.”

“What?”

“If I can stay like this, I’m happy to be in your place.”

She doesn’t know where Erit has left, but if Erit is so fed up with the Jaxen duke, she won’t come back to this country.

Even if she comes back in the distant future, she’ll probably go in there later by washing her identity so she won’t chase herself.

Then Ezet can continue to write Erit Jaxen’s name outside.
Isn’t it quite romantic that Edmond is the only one who calls her name?

“Didn’t you say you wanted to be the real Duchess of Jaxen?”

“But realistically, there’s a lot of pressure.
After the divorce, she said she didn’t like you, and she changed her name… ”

“Oh, come to think of it, we stopped talking there that day.”

That day Edmond said the surest way was to give up his title.

But Ezet needed the status of Duchess.
She can make friends in society.

It’s not wrong to live as the wife of mercenary Edmond, but she was a little nervous about what kind of life she would live.
If possible, it was considered the best option to maintain the current state.

To do that, she thought Ezet had no choice but to act as Erit’s substitute.

“There’s one more thing I haven’t told you.
It’s so easy, to be exact, that I just put it aside.”

“What? Was there an easy way?”

“You can manipulate the marriage documents.”

…to say terrifying words without any hesitation.
