chapter 30
30 – 30 – Marriage Proposal (2).
‘ This is a dream, right? ‘
Charlotte found it hard to believe.
That this moment is reality.
It was a moment I had dreamed of for so long, but I couldn’t believe it when it happened right before my eyes.
Why did I think it was a dream?
This is because the roles have changed.
He was supposed to get down on one knee and propose to him.
Conversely, what he said as he got down on his knees, picked up his hands, and opened his mouth was…
“ Will you marry me? ”
“.. Yes? “
Did I hear it wrong?
No, it must be a dream.
I lived my life believing that he would also like me.
She knows it well.
Edward Frigid is a man who does not show even the slightest smile to women.
He is the one who keeps his distance from women more than anyone else.
The only women who can touch his body are his mother, Grand Duke Frigid Camilla, and her older sister, Lilith.
Because I know it very well, my wish was to be able to touch it at least with my fingertips.
Yesterday at the debutante, he might not like it, but I boldly took advantage of the uproar among the noble women and hugged him.
The moment his body touched my own, it felt so good.
There were many rumors that the people of the northern Frigid family were cold-blooded, so it was thought that Edward, the second son of that family, would also be cold-blooded.
However, it was warmer than expected.
He was very surprised the moment he was hugged, but he did not push her away.
If Bracon next to me hadn’t screamed and made a fuss, I could have held on a little longer..
The happy moment was cut short due to the careless Bracon.
But now, as his hand held her hand, the words that came out were so sweet.
For a moment, Charlotte’s thoughts stopped and her body froze.
” Ah.. If you refused..”
” That can’t be possible! “
Afraid that Edward, who saw her like that, would make a mistake and withdraw the proposal, Charlotte urgently shouted back in response.
“ Refuse!! ”
Rejecting, what are you crazy for refusing?
The Bracon bitch screamed and screamed next to her, but she just ignored it.
Even if it is a whisper from the devil, it is a situation that cannot be refused.
If the beautiful person I’ve wanted for such a long time confesses to me, and I have to reject it, I’ll just bite my tongue and die.
” Lilith!! “
When Bracon convulsed and tried to rush to Edward, Camilla, who was next to her, hurriedly grabbed him and stopped him.
It is truly a tumor.
To anyone who looks at her, it would seem that she is committing the sin that the Goddess spoke of – stealing someone else’s lover.
Why did the Goddess allow such a bitch to arise without taking her sin of being her close relative?
Well, I think she didn’t mention it because she thought it was common sense that even the goddess should forbid.
‘ It was true that I was having a ridiculous dream.. You crazy Bracon bitch.. Tsk tsk.. ‘
After Charlotte clicked her tongue inside her, she looked at Edward and said,
” Eh, Ed… I didn’t hear wrong, right? “
Managing facial expressions is very difficult.
Charlotte was very curious about what kind of expression she was making right now.
My expression was so disheveled and haggard, I shouldn’t have shown my ugly face to him…
” If you’re asking what I said about getting married, that’s right..”
His beautiful voice told me that I had not heard anything wrong.
” Ah♡.. Of course it’s good! If things are as they should be, I should tell you! “
That’s right.
Originally, it should have been the woman herself who proposed, not Edward, the man.
I was originally going to confess to him during my debutante.
And I was going to go through the formalities, get engaged, and get married after that…
The lovely man in front of her now had asked her to marry him first.
” Ah.. Thank you. “
” Thank you! I am a thousand times more grateful! “
Wow!
Charlotte was so moved that she hugged him.
His sister, Bracon Lilith, saw this.
“ Oh, it can’t be like this! Eh, ed.. Gurrrrrrr.. ”
He collapsed with a despairing expression and foaming at the mouth.
” Lilith!? “
” Sister!? “
‘ Hohohoho!! ’
Edward and Camilla were taken aback when they saw Lilith like that, and Charlotte laughed out loud in her heart as she watched her fall.
.
.
.
Lilith suddenly collapsed.
‘Why on earth? ‘
Just a little while ago, Lilith was happy to see me regaining energy.
But he must have known that I was planning to propose to Charlotte, so he desperately tried to stop me before I could say anything.
Could it be right to try to stop my marriage proposal?
As soon as I proposed to Charlotte, she was horrified and stopped me.
‘Isn’t this good enough? ‘
As far as I know, even though Lilith and Charlotte bicker, they visit often and are on good terms.
That..
Isn’t there originally a relationship like that?
Even if we fight a little, we are best friends even if we criticize each other.
I knew that, but looking at Lilith’s behavior today, it seemed as if she was entrusting her younger brother to her enemy.
She even collapsed, foaming at the mouth..
How shocked were you?
Is this why Allen told me to leave it to him?
” Sigh.. First of all.. Please explain in detail later why you suddenly decided to take such a big decision..”
I don’t know exactly if Camilla was shocked, or if she was having a hard time comforting Lilith, but she spoke to me with a very tired expression.
” Ah.. Yes, I’m sorry for proceeding without consulting you, Mom. “
Hmm, now that I think about it, I think I took it out too quickly.
But in the process of returning to her imperial family, sending her letters, and going through these procedures…
You never know what kind of event will happen.
This world has already summoned a crazy girl named Lee Hye-young, calling her a hero, to torment me.
Once you have decided, the sooner the better.
Although it is true that he confessed to take advantage of Charlotte…
Seeing her happy, I feel like she did a good job, although I feel a little sorry for her.
If it’s a girl, there’s absolutely no way she’ll regret it, and if it’s a guy, it’s right to bow down and be thankful.
” No.. It’s what the mother said before.. But it’s just because it was a little unexpected.. Ed.. If that’s how you feel, I won’t object to this. “
Fortunately, her mother, Camilla, did not object and gave permission, as did her older sister, Lilith.
She gave permission because Camilla had tried to marry into the imperial family even before her debutante, but it seems that her mother intended to respect her wishes for now.
” Yes.. Thank you. And I’m sorry again. “
Still, it was true that I proceeded as I wanted, so I apologized to Camilla once more.
” No.. It’s just that you are a man.. No keuhmm..”
Looking at my mother’s reaction, it seems like we really don’t have a culture where men confess to women first.
But even though I confess, I have no regrets at all because, as a man, I wanted to do it first.
” First of all, Ed and the princess’s daughter seem to be shocked, so I will take them away. “
Camilla made a complicated expression and tried to leave while supporting her Lilith.
” Yes, I understand! Grand Duke… No, mother! “
Charlotte bowed her head, greeting Camilla loudly.
Wow, he’s already calling me mother. The progress is going so fast..
” Uh, mother? “
Camilla was surprised by this and asked back.
” Thank you very much! “
” Ah… Yes, I understand. Okay then…”
It was Camilla who saw Charlotte bowing her head again and bowed before leaving.
Thud.
” Hehe.. You look good bracon bitch..”
“Hey princess? “
The sound of her door closing and Charlotte seemed to be muttering something to herself, so he called out to her.
” Ah! “
However, Charlotte did not respond and moaned while pinching her cheek.
” Princess? “
Hey, why are you like this all of a sudden?
I called her in surprise, because of her sudden and unexpected behavior.
Then.
” Ah.. It’s really not a dream, it’s reality! “
Charlotte, whose eyes were slightly wet, spoke in a voice full of emotion.
” Yes? Then of course Hyeon..”
” I really can’t believe it! I never thought the day would come when Ed would say something like this to me! “
” Ah.. Yes.. “
I think he was really moved by my proposal.
Am I that happy?
I was a little worried that she might be rejected or that she might be offended by my sudden marriage proposal.
But looking at her reaction now, it seems like it was all for naught.
” I should have told you! All my plans were blown away! “
” No… It’s okay. As a man, I wanted to tell you in person. “
Was she regretful that I, a man, proposed to her?
Since she was talking about her plans, it seems like she was thinking of proposing to me herself someday.
Still, it is right for a man to propose. Cancer.
” Ed.. Over there.. “
” Yes? “
Charlotte, whose tension had been high just a moment ago, called to me hesitantly in a quiet voice while wiggling her hands.
” Hey… Can I hold your hand again just one more time? “
” Absorb.. “
Wow, that’s really cute.
I almost lost my breath without realizing it.
Didn’t they say it’s a world where men and women are reversed?
Honestly, I never thought I would ever see a woman being embarrassed.
But…
Even though Charlotte is older than Lilith and is the same age as her..
She was so cute showing her shy side in front of me.
“ Ah.. If that’s burdensome.. But since we’re getting married..”
” No! It’s okay. “
This time, I was afraid she might misunderstand me in a hurry, so she answered quickly.
” Thank you, Ed! “
Then Charlotte grabbed his hand.
And..
” Ah.. “
Sweet
Huh?
” Hwang, princess? “
Munch!
I couldn’t help but be embarrassed when I saw where she took my hand.
‘Here!..’
Exciting!
” Can you feel my heart… My heart… Pounding this much? “
” Huh! Yes? Yes..”
I was unable to come to my senses when I answered Charlotte who asked with a fascinating expression.
What is this situation?
“ Me too♡.. ”
Sweet
Blame!
This time, one of her hands touched my chest.
” Hmm! “
As soon as the cold hand touched me, I couldn’t help but moan.
” I can feel it.. Ed-kun’s heart is pounding♡..”
Exciting!
” Huh! Huh!..”
Oh, I can’t breathe…
” I’m so happy.. “
Wow!
” Hmm!… “
I can’t come to my senses…
” Even if you change your words now..”
Munch!
“ Is it already too late? Ed♡”
