I Was Given a Political Marriage

1 – The fiancee came to visit (1)

Eileen Estera.

It is the name of my fiancé who is now sitting across from me, and also the name of the person I am uncomfortable with.

Eileen came to us under the pretext of maintaining the engagement.

I didn’t know what she was thinking, but it was rather good that the opportunity had come for the two of them to face each other.

“It’s been a while. Lady Estera.”

“Why don’t you call me by my first name? I’m going to get married anyway.”

Hurb. As if her stomach was burning at the mention of marriage, Xian simply drank tea in succession.

Marriage is still too early. It’s not a matter of love, it’s a waste to throw away one’s own life already.

I saved my words because I knew people were waiting outside.

“Keuheum, Aileen. Is it okay if I ask why you decided to keep the engagement and not break it off?”

“I just want to get married because I don’t want to be engaged.”

“What is that…”

Xian didn’t understand what this meant.

I didn’t know what the waste was, and I didn’t even know why I wanted to get married.

He just asked for an explanation from his fiancé Eileen.

“Pu-Hup, don’t you still understand? I adore you.”

The word love couldn’t help but surprise him.

A relationship that is said to be a fiancé but will eventually break someday. Naturally, we didn’t pay attention to each other, and we didn’t see each other often.

After all, a tea party is a ceremony to show off to the outside world. It didn’t make sense that love would sprout from that encounter.

“Lie. I don’t know why, but we’ll cancel the engagement.”

“Ha, why can’t you understand this?”

“uh?”

-widely!

It was a fleeting moment.

Eileen, who grabbed his wrist in an instant and lifted him up, laid him down on the sofa.

His strength was so strong that the power he resisted by wringing his hands did not solve it, but the difference in strength was only imprinted on it.

Eileen whispered in a low voice.

“I like you, that kind of family is not important, I want to have you? Why, by any chance, do you like someone?”

“Leave it. You know what you’re trying to do, right?”

“Well, it’s enough to say that it’s a love fight. Anyway, the family head of Laiheart likes it too, so what?”

Chit. Xi’an stopped resisting when he heard that the householder liked it.

it’s already too late Having grown up as a tool from birth, this was his destiny.

Because every morning and evening arduous groom’s class was for this.

“So what’s the answer?”

“…Okay. Let’s reconsider the marriage issue, then move on to another story.”

Since the engagement has already been confirmed, you should not miss any more opportunities.

Taking his lips away from silence, Xian delivered a suggestion.

“At least… let’s get married after graduating from the academy.”

“why?”

“…because it’s the last life.”

The academy was like the last freedom for Xian.

It was a place where you didn’t have to give up what you wanted to eat to take care of your appearance, even if you didn’t have to take classes close to abuse in your family.

I wanted to enjoy my freedom even until the end.

“Well, I want to get you soon. I’m also an academy cadet…”

gulp. While waiting for her answer, Xian calmed down and smiled as lightly as possible.

I just hoped and prayed that Eileen liked it.

“Then let’s do this.”

Eileen put forward two conditions.

First, share the same room as yourself and sleep in the same bed. However, he said that he would not progress further than that unless I wanted to.

Second, this really bothered me, but within the academy, it was a condition that you follow your orders.

‘Is this really okay?’

If you want to, you want to abandon your family and run away, but in the Middle Ages, abandoning your family was close to suicide.

Even if you were kidnapped for no reason, it would be acceptable to suffer worse than marriage.

“okay.”

My answer brought a smile to Eileen’s face.

***

The Estes family’s night before Eileen and Xian meet.

Aileen, the candidate for the next head of household, spent time alone with her mother, the head of the household.

“I think you know that the story of breaking up marriage came out this time.”

“Yes, mother.”

As usual, Kaju smiles bitterly at her answer, which goes well with the word emotionless.

However, there was a chill in that expressionless expression for some reason, the mother continued with a little determination in her heart.

“What do you want?”

“…How did you know?”

Although he was expressionless, the family head accurately grasped his true intentions. Surprised by her question, Eileen smiled bitterly.

“If I, the mother, don’t know, who knows. You mean you don’t like breaking up marriage?”

“You know me well.”

“Why? There must have been many other men, and there must have been a lot of aristocratic princes who recently had marriage talks.”

More handsome and fine flowers can be obtained at any time.

The status and honor of being a marquis is a name to be used in such a place.

But Eileen didn’t. It was because he was an aristocrat called a marquis, but he dared to take a low noble.

The face is somewhat decadent and delicate, so it may be a personal preference, but in all other respects, it was inferior to the aristocratic Confucius.

“Well, it must be love. Love.”

“To know that you have such trivial feelings, you might die of surprise today.”

“Today, please refrain from all the tea I offer you.”

Aileen avoids answering with boring jokes.

Rather, she felt more suspicious about her appearance and wanted to know her charm point.

“Well, if you’re curious. Would you like to hear the love story you contributed?”

It starts on the day of the engagement. I had to go back to the first meeting between the two.

She didn’t expect dignity when she was said to be a viscount’s Confucius. She greeted the first meeting with a face she didn’t like.

“Sian Laiheart. I am so moved that I can’t continue to speak when I meet Youngshik of the Laihat family with the lady of Estes.”

It was a fresh shock because the man who is more likely to talk about marriage than I thought was a man with basic dignity and good courtesy.

But that’s it. My first impression of meeting him was that he was a classy, low-class aristocrat.

It didn’t take long for that gaze to change.

The second meeting with Xian.

It was a moment to pass the time by asking each other about their daily lives with a cup of tea on the green lawn under the name of a tea party.

“I’m bored. How about drinking tea and playing a game?”

What he brought to the tea party was something out of the ordinary.

A chess game in which the battlefield is reduced to a small board. It was one of the entertainments my mother and I often enjoyed as children.

Eileen said something mixed with irritation, probably thinking that she looked ugly.

“Heh, you dare to attack me?

“Yes, rather do your best.”

The result, of course, was Eileen’s defeat.

She doesn’t know it, but her strategy was not enough to beat Xian, who was a chess player in the modern age before reincarnation.

It was close to natural disaster for her, who always thought she was a little more superior to him.

“Then would you like to try again?”

Eileen felt a slight trembling at his whisper.

It was the first time. This was the first man he ever felt equal to or better than.

He was an equal being different from those Confucius who always looked stupid and pathetic.

After that, Eileen enjoyed the tea party that was held once every week or month.

It was fun meeting him and playing games, and I really liked his ability to push himself to the limit even when he was always improving his skills.

It wasn’t long before I realized that the bean pods were soaked in his clever and smart appearance.

“I lost again today.”

“I was also surprised this time. I’m sure I’ll lose soon to see my skills slow down so quickly.”

thump, thump, thump.

Eileen had a hard time controlling her pounding heart whenever she saw his face.

want to have. I wanted to keep that rare flower that is hard to find.

I met him on the pretext of being engaged, but seeing his face was my only happiness.

“Why are you looking at me like that?”

“It is nothing.”

But it wasn’t long before I realized that this love was going to change soon.

To be precise, it was the fact that he had been married to another nobleman even though he was engaged.

At first, it was nothing because it was an engagement relationship, but soon after thinking about it, the more I thought about it, the worse I felt.

‘What if the engagement ended?’

Anyway, this relationship was a kind of contract to meet with the purpose of breaking up.

As soon as the business is over and the engagement is broken, we will become South and South.

Kwak. The more I think about it, the more my heart rushes.

What if he accepts marriage talks after the breakup?

I will spend time meeting women who are worse than me, and what if I get married for the sake of the family?

Are we planting seeds in inferior women and growing those seeds?

Just thinking about it made me feel uncomfortable and put strength in my hands.

‘no. I can never give it to anyone else.’

Rather than being taken away, it would be the right choice for me to destroy it so no one can have it.

must have There will be no more men like him in this world.

Therefore, he strengthened his strength to persuade his mother, the head of the family, and put pressure on the viscount.

I was slowly weaving the spider’s web so that he would never run away.

and today.

When I forced him to lie down on the couch, I looked down and knew.

“I’m sorry…”

This man is mine now.
