Raising my Fiancè with Money

Karhan Evantheon

Confused, Lilia stared at the man.

“Is this man Evantheon’s, little duke?”

She had heard that he was a murderer on the battlefield and had a nasty personality.

‘They said he was a killer on the battlefield. They said he is a bad person. What the hell are you?’

Her first impression of him was so strong he didn’t seem like a murderer at all.

The woman holding his arm spoke to him.

When she saw Lilia staring, she reacted with hostility.

Lilia immediately noticed who she was.

She was the stalker that the story of the engagement with Karhan Evantheon went back and forth about.

“Evantheon, who is this woman?”

Her question forced Karhan’s mouth shut.

Lilia and Karhan had never formally introduced themselves to each other.

While Karhan stayed silent, the woman observed Lilia.

She stared at Lilia’s face, asking with confidence.

“Are you Lady Bloden?”

Lilia nodded slowly.

She pretended to know Lady Bloden, but Lilia’s never met her before.

If she were a friend of the Bloden family, she would be rich, but she wasn’t.

‘I don’t think that family likes me very much.’ 

Lilia glanced at Karhan.

His face was still expressionless, but the embarrassment still came out of his trembling eyebrows.

His trembling face betrayed his expressionless façade.

Suddenly the stalker came and looked surprised. She observed his face, surprised at his reaction.

‘It’s annoying, so let’s just avoid it.’

There was nothing good about getting involved in politics.

Lilia walked away thinking she should get away with it naturally.

“I was just about to go in, so you two talk.”

“You must have done something suspicious while I was gone, as you suddenly avoided your seat just now.”

Scratching her head, Lilia looked at her.

She wanted to call her name, but she didn’t know who the mysterious girl was.

“You don’t know me?”

The woman raised her voice like her pride was hurt.

When Lilia didn’t answer, she shouted.

“It’s Stella Delotta!”

Her eyes widened when the Delotta family was mentioned.

Although the Delottas only had the Count title, their house was widely-known for their enormous wealth.

They had several businesses: theaters, transportation, restaurants, and boutiques.

All were adorned with the Delotta family seal.

Furthermore, the Bloden and Delotta family had a bitter rivalry against each other.

The Delotta family were crowned the “richest family in the empire” for generations.

However, when Lilia was born, things changed.

As days passed, the monetary gap between the two families grew wider, and the reputation they have enjoyed so far fell to the Bloden family.

The Delottas, with their wounded pride, have been interfering with the Bloden family’s affairs ever since.

When the Delottas tried to start a new business, the company couldn’t compensate for their discounted prices, and went bankrupt.

Lilia’s luck only further fueled their failures.

No matter how much the Delottas tried to sabotage, the Blodens flourished and didn’t succumb to their schemes.

Despite the numerous incidents with Delotta, there was one memorable occasion for Lilia.

‘It was a luxury carriage design.’

In the past, the Bloden family was about to launch a new product.

Said product was a luxury carriage, but the design plans were stolen before launch.

That incident forced the Blodens to create a new design from scratch, with Lilia as their key helper.

The Blodens thought with Lilia’s help, the design would be most successful.

In the end, it was Lilia’s job to choose the final design.

That day, Lilia chose the most bold design out of the several possible ideas.

Other designers voiced their disapproval, however Bloden followed Lilia’s judgement faithfully and began production.

Shortly, after the design incident, Delotta released a new product.

It was the same luxury carriage as the Bloden’s design plans.

She knew it was the Delotta family who stole the luxury carriage design, but there was no evidence.

Additionally, the Delotta’s advertised their stolen product with confidence, asserting they had been preparing this idea for years.

Due to this, the Delotta family promoted the product with no signs of terror.

As if heaven placed judgement on the Delottas. The luxury carriage was a product doomed for failure.

The Delottas produced thousands, with only a few bought.

After that, the Bloden family launched a wagon based on a new pattern. It was so unusual, it was evaluated as being difficult at first.

But soon after, the fashion leaders praised for being revolutionary.

In the social world, where you can chew stones if it’s fashionable, wagons were starting to be sold on fire.

When the carriage was launched a month ago. The Blodens sold nine hundred and ninety-five wagons.

Exactly as much as Delotta lost and Stella, standing in front of her, was the only one of the Delotta family.

Lilia’s gaze after the recollection was changed.

‘You lost a lot of weight…’

Stella, who Liliya knew, was overweight.

She heard rumors that she lost weight, but she seemed to have changed.

Lilia turned back her steps.

She thought she should avoid it because it was annoying, but it was different for the bitter Delotta Young Lady.

Even more if she openly argued.

“Ah, Delotta.”

Stella’s eyebrows furrowed when Lilia answered awkwardly.

She took a step forward, taking off Karhan’s hand. When they faced each other, Stella looked down at Lilia and asked,

“So what are you doing on the terrace?”

“What are you doing?”

When Lilia asked back, Stella shouted nervously.

“You were in the same place with my man! You don’t think I know what you’re doing?”

“I guess the young lady lacks confidence. It’s enough to keep him in check.”

“What. ..”

When Stella faltered, Lilia pulled up one corner of her mouth. Her face must be soft and gentle, but her eyes were not like that at all.

“If you wanted to barge into someone else’s resting place, you should have brought evidence. At least attack a kissing scene.”

If there was no evidence, the grounds for suspicion should have been brought.

Like herself a month ago, or even a spot arrest.

Lilia smiled coldly.

Richard that motherf*cker. (T/N: I seriously didn’t wanted to censor it)

“Even though you weren’t even engaged yet, you must have been very anxious, right?”

“Lilia Bloden!”

“Or did you not trust the Little Duke?”

So Lilia asked, “Didn’t you just come in all of a sudden?”

Stella blinked her eyes in embarrassment.

She probably didn’t think about it that much.

“No, I…”

Stella turned to Karhan, who was standing behind her, to make excuses and her expression gradually hardened.

Lilia also looked at Karhan.

He looked very uncomfortable with his brow knitted. It was frightening to put in words.

“E, Evantheon… are you angry?”

Stella stammered.

Karhan’s fierce atmosphere seemed overwhelmed and frightened.

Lilia, who was far away, quietly looked at Karhan.

His forehead narrowed, the eyebrows rose upward, and the eyes were sharp like arrowheads.

Originally, it was a ferocious face, but now it seemed as if his eyes were telling her to go off.

‘He must have been taken aback by the sudden attention.’

Lilia could notice how he was feeling, but to others, he had a firmly angry face.

Finally, his tightly sealed lips opened

The moment he tried to speak up, Stella stepped back.

“I…, I’ll go in first.  It’s not because I can’t trust you…!”

She came in boldly and left the terrace with her tail off.

Tak, the door closed timidly.

“It’s too bad.”

When Lilia kicked her tongue, Karhan flinched noticeably. She felt like she became a bad person, so Lilia felt a little unfair.

This was a very elegant finish.

And she told her archrival, the Delotta, not to lose rock, paper, scissors.

“First, I’m going to argue, but if I stay still, I’m stupid.”

Lilia muttered as if she were making excuses.

Looking at Lilia from a distance, he slowly opened his mouth.

“….. Young Lady seems to be very confident.”

‘Is that a curse in return for me..?’

Lilia thought, and an unexpected word came in.

“I envy you.”

Lilia slowly looked up and faced him.

And she tried to grasp the true meaning in his expressionless face.

The blue eyes of his didn’t tell a single lie.

“I didn’t know that the day would come to hear that an Evantheon was envious of a small Countess.”

Rather, it was the man in front of her who could be more confident than anyone else.

Evantheon, called the best of all nobles.

And the only heir.

No one could blame him for being so proud, even if he were being so violent.

The status of one could be their personality.

“I’m not good enough.”

Karhan mumbled his eyes down.

A tone close to self-statement, Lilia narrowed her eyes slightly.

“I know myself that I don’t get along as the Evantheon successor.”

“…..Why do you think so?”

“Because everyone is afraid of me.”

Lilia recalled rumors about Evantheon’s little prince.

A murderer who enjoys blood.

A bad personality and an arrogant person.

A cold-blooded man who brought down his brother and became the successor.

There were rumors that he looked at other people as if they were bugs, and that he played with numerous women.

‘It doesn’t fit at all.’

His first impression was a pushover to Lilia.

It is premature to judge who she only saw twice, but the Karhan, Lilia saw was different from the rumors.

Instead of being polite and showing pride, an apple popped out first, and it was like a big shrimp that exploded in the fight against a whale.

Far from being a bad guy, he’s actually running away from a stalker….

It seemed to be misunderstood because the atmosphere was sharp around him.

He was the opposite of himself who had a good face and a bad personality.

“Are you not afraid of me, lady?”

“Should I be afraid?”

Lilia asked the question carefully.

Then Karhan was embarrassed.

“But the others…”

“That’s someone else.”

No matter how fierce he looked, it was a fact that he was being forced to sell orgel at the store.

And as she was looking at him, she could read his expression more and more.

Lilia, who was looking at Karhan, asked the opposite question.

“You little duke. You weren’t mad at her earlier. You were flustered, weren’t you?”

“. . . . !”

As if she knew how, his eyes got bigger.
