In fact, she realized that Louella was looking for grounds to forgive and accept Gerald again. On the surface, she said she would never marry Gerald again.
That she would leave him, and would meet another man, marry, and find happiness, and when she was really old enough to do that, she was busy comparing him with another man.
He was an absolute standard for her. That’s how much she liked him. She couldn’t believe it herself. Anyway, she was relieved when she found out that she had a good reason to be with him again.
And what she found was good enough to put down the hatred and resentment she had felt towards him who was barely holding onto her. Of course, if he tried to repeat the past again, she was confident that she would attack him without hesitation this time.
Louella fiddled with her neck in the mirror. Still, no necklace was reflected in the mirror. Louella spoke, “Bring me the necklace. That necklace Gerald gave me as a present.”
“You’ve finally made up your mind!” The maids clapped their hands and were happy when they heard Louella.
When she received the necklace because of the bet made by the Crown Prince and Gerald, the maids wanted to put it on her right away.
Was there anyone who hated the perfect man Gerald? No one, right? Come to think of it, everyone around me was on his side. The maids quickly took it with a smile and hung the necklace he gave her sat around her neck.
It was a simple necklace with jewels that resembled the colors of
the sunset. She fiddled with the necklace. Something similar to the one she had worn around her neck before.
She had all sorts of thoughts. Like she was about to marry him. Louella let out a deep sigh However, it did not mean that she had regrets or hesitated about it.
Is there a way for Gerald to make it all the way there? She didn’t think he would have offered her three nights without any plans, right? Nisephor, you’re the problem.
At the end of the day, Nisephor was at the root of all their troubles. The disease that must have killed her. The desire to stab the Crown Prince rose a little more within her.
“Promise me that you will never approach the Crown Prince.”
Gerald, who looked desperate at first glance, came to her mind.
“I’ll write back.” said Louella to the maids.
“Are you going to go, young lady?”
“I’ll say I can’t go. I’ll just pretend I’m sick.” Louella decided to avoid the Crown Prince. Like Gerald said, there was no need for her to risk everything when Gerald had devoted his life to her a few times.

[Your Highness, the Crown Prince
I’m afraid I won’t be able to attend because I’m not feeling well. My doctor told me that it’s better to take a rest at home this week. I think it’d be better to see you next time.]
Ernst stared coldly at the letter from Louella. It was a no. He was not used to being rejected by anyone. Ernst was born with everything. People gave him what he wanted before anything. But Louella casually refused his invitation.
“Ha?” Ernst tapped his finger on the table. “What do you mean you’re not feeling well?”
[That’s an excuse. She doesn’t want to meet you. That was why I told you to grab it when you have a chance. Logan’s veins couldn’t have stayed still. Didn’t Gerald Logan say he was deeply related to my brother? My brother will be helping him. He and my brother will be on our side and disturb us all the time. Make her your own somehow.] White Uroboros told Ernst.
[That’s why you have brought her to me, Ernst. Just like before.]
“It could be Nisephor’s disease.”
It was the White Uroboros who was cursed. What if she’s really sick and can’t come out?
[No way I would have known about it. I’m sure he and my brother are trying to steal her away] The White Uroboros whispered.
[You’re the Crown Prince. There’s nothing you can’t do. So make the woman yours.]
It wasn’t that I didn’t know what White Uroboros was up to. Didn’t you use Louella as a trap to catch Gerald and the Black Snake in the first place?
Even now, he may be thinking of swallowing Louella in one bite. However, the problem was……. Now Ernst is also greedy for Louella.
