My fiancé, thinking I would apologize as usual, was taken aback by just that.

I endured the urge to raise the corners of my mouth by biting my lip. With a flick, I lightly picked up the hem of my skirt and spread it out a bit, showing it off to my fiancé.

"Oh, did you notice? This dress is really lovely, isn't it? I like it a lot, but what do you think, William?"

"Oh, yeah. That dress is... good, I think. But I don't think it's good to stand out so much."

"It's not good to stand out, is it? Why is that?"

If he disliked revealing dresses, I could understand. I had always thought that my fiancé didn't like flashy clothes on women, but I had never asked him the reason for fear of being rejected.

So I was wondering why he had slept with my sister, who seemed to embody both flamboyance and exposure, but... from the way he had just spoken, I might have been mistaken.

"Why don't you understand something so obvious? Women who dress like that are either narcissistic or looking for men. Olivia is like that, isn't she?"

"Huh... What?"

"So you, my fiancée, don't need to dress up."

He shrugged his shoulders as if to say he didn't understand why I couldn't see that, but that was my line. I couldn't understand a word he was saying.

However, after patiently ruminating over my fiancé's words again and again, I noticed a slight discomfort.

(Is he... perhaps hiding something behind his weak-willed facade?)

When he told me he was cheating, I was too flustered to notice, but there was a serious contradiction between his words and actions.

My fiancé, perhaps not noticing that I was thinking hard about it, acted as if he was embarrassed.

"Oh come on, you suddenly have an opinion for me... What's wrong with your usual calm and obedient self?"

I tried to ignore him, but I felt a twinge in his words that interrupted my train of thought. Let's put my doubts to the test.

"Always calm and obedient... Are you implying that I'm submissive and will do anything you say?"

"W-What are you talking about!? Th-There's no way I would possibly think that!!"

I see.

In other words, my fiancé had been restraining me all this time just to show that he was in a position of superiority to me. And that was all.

"You're really flustered, aren't you? You didn't get this worked up even when you were caught sleeping with my sister. Is that because it hit the nail on the head?"

The sight of my fiancé trying to explain himself by making things up was so pathetic that I couldn't help but laugh. But above all, I found myself laughing at the fact that I had been so concerned about his behavior up until now.

My fiancé's face turned red with anger at my attitude.

"When Olivia came to me crying yesterday, saying that you were flirting with another man, I thought it was just a joke to get my attention. But I hadn't seen your face for a while, so I thought it was a good opportunity to come and check on you."

"I can't believe you came all the way here this early in the morning."

Why did my sister and my fiancé both put their actions on the shelf and talk about me like I was the bad one? How could they behave as though they were the victims? I wondered how I could possibly lower myself to behave like that.

"Enough! But this makes it clear. If there was nothing going on, you wouldn't be acting like this toward me!"

"Yes, yes! That's right. As expected of you, William-sama! Now you believe what I said, don't you?"

Just as my fiancé began to express his emotions without any prompt from someone else, my sister appeared, her high-pitched voice echoing throughout the mansion.
