Another Collaborator (1)
They are really foolish.
I didn't think their heads would be this empty.
It was about a month ago that I was invited over by Lady Marie through a letter.
"Long time no see. Lady Marie."
"It's been a while. Kim."
As soon as my husband was expelled from the territory, I, too, followed him with nothing but the clothes on my back.
The others had the same thoughts.
We were picked up by Lord Diaz, deciding to serve him for life, but that unreasonable woman kicked us out for no good reason.
It was my husband who wished for a divorce, but that wicked woman orchestrated it.
I can't forgive her for expelling Lady Marie, and I can't allow her to use Lord Diaz until he's in a good position and then turn her back on him.
But stopping people's gossip is difficult.
Rumors of reconciliation within the territory were spreading, but it was just a farce.
Fools who manipulate these rumors are increasing.
Given the Monhan territory situation, my husband was advancing on the path of success.
My husband was originally talented, with the ability to see through the essence of things.
He was not greedy before, but rather modest, and his talent for deceiving others was unsurpassed.
Now, he was promised the position of Count and future Minister of Finance.
In the midst of all this, there are those who want to crush my husband.
Dania, who wants my husband’s position in all of this, is the worst possible combination.
And that cursed hand was now reaching out to Lady Marie.
"I don't want to be manipulated by that person anymore. Is reconciliation with my Father and that person possible?"
"It's not possible."
Such a thing is unforgivable!
"Kim, I think we should thoroughly crush them here."
"Lady Marie..."
The once weak Lady Marie was no more.
Perhaps she had been released from the curse of that foolish mother and son.
"I will become a wicked woman."
"Don't joke."
Considering what that that pair has done, this is just cute, isn't it?
"While orchestrating them to come to the Capital and keeping them away from my Father, I want them to receive retribution. Please investigate simultaneously."
"Understood."
"And please investigate the sudden death of the previous generation. My husband is looking into it, but I want you to investigate through a different route. Also, prepare someone to monitor those two."
"Understood."
"As for the detailed plan, it's here..."
I was shown an easy-to-understand plan, and I smiled.
It was like a script for a play.
"I want to protect my family's future."
"Understood."
I shouldn't let more people get hurt because of that woman.
This Kim Yakul will fullfil her duty with determination, but that mother and son were even more foolish than I thought.
