My Husband Hates Me, But He Lost His Memories
Chapter 57.2
Calvin pondered and hinted,
“You mean… You were angry with Madam first? Did you ask why she prepared those divorce papers?”
“…….”
Seeing him with his head down without a word, Calvin was right. Calvin knew that would happen and shook his head.
Theodore Valentino looks perfect on the outside, but in fact, he was a person who would put in a lot of effort in everything he did. And besides that, he was plenty clumsy in many ways when it came to interpersonal relationships.
In particular, the more someone had an influence on him, the more difficult it was for him.
‘When he had lost his memory… I think he just pushed through.’
Theodore, who had lost his memory, seemed unable to control his impulses. But now… He didn’t know what it was, but it must have been complicated because there was a misunderstanding or a twisted relationship.
‘I wish he could just think of it simply. Well, he has a lot on his mind.’
But he knew that Theodore was like that before. Though sensitive and sharp, this also meant that he was cautious. However, having that kind of attitude would no doubt make the other person tired and also to make himself tired.
Calvin took a new piece of candy from the glass bowl and threw it at Theodore. Theodore, who had been absent-mindedly accepting it, blinked his eyes as he looked down at the candy in his palm. Calvin said, putting his piece of candy into his mouth.
“Eat some.”
“…….”
“When you’re depressed, you need to recharge your sugar.”
“…Do I look depressed?”
“Yes. Very.”
“…….”
Tsk tsk, Calvin openly clicked his tongue this time. Theodore didn’t put the candy right into his mouth and just stared at it.
Calvin was about to tell him to put it back if he didn’t want to eat it, but he hesitated for a moment.
…Come to think of it, the color of that candy was light green, like the Madam’s eyes.
‘Ha…’
The astonished Calvin grabbed the back of his neck. Crack. Chewing on the candy in his mouth, he looked up at the ceiling and rolled his eyes.
Seriously, he just wanted to stop immersing himself in the personal life of this couple.
But wasn’t he this guy’s childhood friend?
Theodore had no one else to confide in, so he always visited Calvin… It’s impossible to ignore him.
“…….”
‘…But really, divorce papers, huh…’
Calvin, who was melting and eating the pieces of candy, frowned. The Duchess he remembered was someone who seemed helpless in many ways. The ability to act to prepare divorce papers… It didn’t fit her at all.
‘At the same time though, it’s not like she’s the type to keep quiet.’
Considering the argument she had with Theodore, she must have acted surprisingly unusually. Besides, the maid next to the Duchess—her name was Charlotte. Even though she’s young, the maid was clever and had good manners. She was a figure of useful assistance to the Duchess.
Thinking that far, a certain assumption suddenly came to Calvin’s mind.
…Are you trying to run away secretly?
“…….”
Ah, no way…
‘A person with a weak constitution…’
…But the possibility was not entirely zero. Preparing documents in advance so that the divorce could be processed quickly was a typical pattern of noblewomen who’d choose to run away secretly.
When it’s known that the noblewoman ran away secretly, not only the territory becomes noisy, but rumors would spread throughout the kingdom. Especially if it’s a household at the level of Valentino.
So, the spouse would want to quickly go through the divorce process and draw the line, saying, ‘This person no longer belongs to our family.’
Whatever the reason for the secret escape, it was a way to protect the family’s status by blaming the lady for all the disgrace of the family.
After that, they would usually pretend to find the lady who ran away. Since they caused damage to the family, they made a justification to catch her and hold her accountable.
But they rarely ever got caught. Because it could be intertwined with the noble lady’s family, the trial could come and go, and it would be complicated in many ways. It’s the same with everyone who didn’t want to lose. The noblewoman’s family could file a lawsuit claiming that the cause was on the husband’s side.
‘The Everett family, especially, can do that…’
Therefore, the Duchess made a very wise choice in preparing the divorce papers that were signed in advance before she ran away.
…But it’s not yet certain whether she’s really trying to run away.
‘…Come to think of it, she’s been going out more often lately.’
That was really strange. A person with a weak constitution was going out so often?
‘Hmm…’
Troubled, Calvin stroked his chin. The candy in his mouth had already melted away.
‘Should I warn Theo…’
