Chapter 5 - Letters of Regret

Right now, I'm fully enrage. Not because of my wife's betrayal but because of that bastard!!

I fucking trusted him and yet he did this kind of thing to me?! What does he take me for? Am I some sort of foolish man that can be trick easily? Well, I do got trick so it's kinda... Yes?

Anyways! That Teryn bastard!

Earlier, when I calmed down. My wife explained it all; how he always come to my house and offer my wife some money in exchange of sleeping with her.

And guess what? That fucking money he offers is mine!! I send it to him and not directly to my wife because she can't count! I trusted that fucker because he's my former butler! And this will return to me? A fucking child of his!

He will surely found himself living with Satan the moment I see his face!

I just arrive in front of his house. Damn, this isn't want it looks like before I leave the village. It was like a small wooden house without any designs.

Now, it can even surpass my own home! Did he used my money to renovate his own fucking house?

That greedy pig, I will be sure to behead him!

I open the door of his extravagant orange house and enter. But what welcome me is nothing but darkness. No, not just darkness, but also a letter on the table.

Despite using my money for a whole year he can't even design his interior properly. It was like a baby just tried to be an architect. Shabby creature, don't worry I will put your head in here as a design the moment you show your face! Fucking Teyrn!

I pick the letter and look at its content. But what show me is nothing but a single word. Yes, a single fucking word!!

"Bye!"

Who the fuck wrote like that!? Isn't he suppose to tell me the reason of all his betrayals?

Haha!! You bastard, you just gave me an idea! If you left here, it just mean that you will go there! Right, right! You will go to your family!

I know you Teryn, I know you very well!

Prepare to die in my hands, you filthy bastard!

I drop the paper and run towards my house, I have planned something, yes! That will surely happen. I only need to send a letter to my father!

As soon as I arrive at my house, I enter through the door and didn't mind the sitting woman right in front of the chimney. Well, now that I made a great plan, I will be sure give him some difficult choices! Haha.. Dear me, am I becoming an evil right now? Well, it's not my fault. The goddess made me like this!

Then I enter my room in which I held a quill and reach for a paper made of goat's skin, it was quite thick and rough. But the moment my great plan succeed, I will make sure to change this kind of inconvenience.

I write my letter for my father as sweats roll down my forehead. I'm kinda nervous while writing this, I can't really expect something from them unless I present something that will surely made them think of my loyalty.

Still, it's worth a try.

Afterwards, I finish writing the letter, stamp the letter with the crest a brought before I flee from home and head outside. Coincidentally, the merchant that travels village to village just arrive this morning and ready to depart. He will arrive again next week so it's still within the time of their reply, hopefully.

As I walk near the center of the village, I saw a wagon full of merchandise and a man riding in front of it. He has the look of an old man, white hair, brown eyes and fat. But not too fat.

"Oh! Village chief! It's glad to meet you today!"

Well yeah, I have some business with you, of course you will meet me. Anyway, I should still be friendly with him like I used to so nothing can go wrong.

"Well hello, William. Nice seeing your business going well," I made a friendly smile as I flatter him.

"Yes, chief! Business is booming as always! How may I help you then?" He ask as he hands me one of his merchandise, he urge me to taste it and to my surprise it's tasty.

"I want you to personally send this to my family. If they gave a reply, I will be your first noble customer. What do you think?"

As soon as the merchant heard my offer, he turn from his happy expression to a grim one. He knew that I am a fallen noble, and he wants me to become one again so I can be his first customer in the noble society. But because of my offer, he hesitated.

Well, I mean he's a commoner merchant. He can't think of making a negotiation with a noble because of his status, I don't even think he will leave the noble house if he send this letter. Still I need to take risks.

The merchant think silently for awhile, at the same time, I'm looking at his wagon, slowly getting restock as villagers sell their harvest to his companion.

And then after that, he made a decision!

"Village chief... No, your excellency. If ever you got accepted again, why don't you recommend me to any noble you know?"

Hoo~, he's negotiating with me. The guts of this man surely appears when you least expects it.

Well, it's not really that hard. I was once a prodigy so multiple nobles surely come to my family to make a connection because they thought I have a bright future.

My family thought too, but it broke as soon as I defended one of the commoner servants and flee my home.

Damn this hell! I can just fuck that woman while still being a maid though! Is love really that kind of thing?!

I frown as I thought the mistakes my former self made.

This saint me doesn't even know that it almost kill him just defending a commoner.

I release a deep sigh as I thought of it again...

I promise I will change the moment they accepted my apology! I can't live like this! I'm suppose to marry someone from a high status and lick every part of her clean body!

Not someone from a commoner status who just got fucked by a disgusting butler! This really disgust me!

"Okay, I accept. But instead of coming every week as soon as they give a reply. I want you to head here!" I also made an advantageous deal to myself! Hah! In your face you greedy merchant!

"It's not really a problem to me, your excellency," a warm smile appears on his face as he saw me making a proud expression...

This old man! He surely have the guts to look down on me! If they ever accept my apology and became a noble again, I will make sure you give me a huge discount! 10%, no 25% discount.

The merchant saw my grinning face as I thought about my scheme. He just smile wryly and said his good bye.

Soon, I also stop daydreaming and towards my home. It's already getting dark before I realize it and my tummy starts to get violent.

I arrive at my home seeing my wife taking her dinner.

Oh, it's my meat!! It arrive! I thought they forgot about me, Haha!

As soon as I smell the aroma coming from the cuisine, I immediately head towards the table not minding the woman whose eating casually with her hand.

Wait, did she even wash!?

"Oy, you washed your hands, right!?" I asks her while making an angry tone to make sure she answers me honestly.

"I-I don't..."

"And why is that?!! Go wash your hands before I remove those!"

The betrayal I saw from before is still fresh so I can't just fully accept her apology, I'm also thinking of leaving her here since I'm going back to my family and showing her to them with her bastard's son will surely enrage those nobles.

I can't let that happen!

When I finish my food, I head towards my room to rest. I'm pretty excited and at the same time nervous that I think I won't be able to sleep!

"Verian..." The woman called my name as I enter my room.

"What's the matter?" an angry tone was again release from my mouth.

"You'll leaving me, right?" She said.

Gaah!!

A stabbing pain goes through my heart!! What the fuck is this!! Again??!!

Seeing the face of the woman, I can't really tell if she's asking out of curiosity or because she's just confirming. Well, I already know her so I can guess it's the latter.

"And if I am?"

"Please don't, you know I can't live without you!-"

"Or you can't live without a man. If my family replies, you can do whatever you want. Sleep with any man, I don't care. Just know that I won't support you and your bastard's son any longer!"

I notice her gritting her lips as soon as she heard my claims. Sure, cry however you want. I don't care.

Still, do I really not care?

I can't just leave her here without anything right?!

I frown as I thought the consequences of living a woman clueless from the outside world.

"I'll be resting, be sure to rest."

And that's the last word I said that night...

A week quickly arrive and guess what...

No letter ever arrive...
