Because She Had A Time Limit, She Became The Villain’s Daughter-in-law Chapter 90

At first, I was just going to pretend to be sick in front of Duke Icard.

However, I changed my stance imdiately, fearing that he would call another doctor if he was told I was in critical condition. If a normal doctor diagnoses my body even once, they would know right away that I was very healthy and well.

As soon as I returned to the Dukes residence, I called Serena and secretly gave an order.

Mine, mine developnt?

On the map, here, here, and here. Itll probably be very soon.

As I was pointing out the map, Serena opened her mouth as if it was a surprise.

Suddenly?

Yes.

It was originally an iron ore mine that exploded due to Seymours accidental move about two months later, but in fact, I was preparing to explode earlier. It was because I had to pull out as much cash as possible before going into hiding.

So, I was going to tell them to start developnt right after the masquerade was over, but it was delayed by a few days.

Of course, you know that construction begins in the na of Kyle Dart Labonis, right?

Yes. Though what will really e out?

Maybe, there will be iron ore. Then, hit the article and put the entire amount on auction.

Now, the iron ore supply had sharply decreased, and it was clearly possible to sell it at a high price. And

Once the Emperor gave the task of cultivating to Duke Icard, it will be less.

Even though he didnt give anything in particular, that wasnt the only reason he hated the Emperor.

Laria I dont know what you think, but I heard Count Rostri was quite a playboy.

Elanies words were strangely lingering.

Well, I just I just wanted to say that there was a certain bond between that fact.

So, rather than the man who touched this woman and that woman, I was just choosing to take the side of the man who missed a woman all his life, even if it was a dead person. Well, pulling an iron ore mine for developnt anyway was a big deal.

Another one

In order to quickly supply enough iron ore, one Kyle was a little insufficient.

I need to see Seymour. I know that hes also in the capital because of the masquerade.

There was a high probability of ignoring if he was told to develop mines without end. I had to et him in person to convince him. And, the price was also fixed in advance to prevent bleeding from the petition.

Ah Yes. How can I convey the ssage?

In three days, Im going out to town to get a mask on, so lets et then.

I know that it is a schedule to go with the Young Duke.

Ah thats true, but

I thought of Evan, who seed to have gone away for a mont. I couldnt rember exactly when he changed. It was because we had t so intermittently for the past six years. What was certain was that we were friendly and kind to each other. Nevertheless, we were hiding sothing inside.

In my case, it was an escape plan, still

Evan must be instinctively indifferent.

Because of the good mories of my childhood, there was a clear sense of distance from doing anything good to . However, no matter how much I thought about it, I didnt do anything wrong to Evan so I had no choice but to infer that it was due to the flow of the original story.

I answered calmly.

I think I can go out on my own if I give a reasonable excuse.

If we were young, he would have said we should be together sohow, but if it was Evan now, he would just end the conversation by saying, I understand. And it was true.

* * *

That evening, I went to Evans room to finish sorting out my belongings the room we once shared was neatly arranged with Evans belongings. Of course, my new room was much bigger and more luxurious, although I couldnt help but feel sorry for sothing.

You dont have to move it yourself, just put a na tag on it.

Evan spoke as he sat sitting at the table by the window, reviewing the pile of papers. These days, he was busy with the work being shared by the duke.

Then, we can have the servants move it.

Yes, so I just need to put a na tag on mine, right?

I wrote a bunch of Laria on a piece of paper, stacked them on one side of the room, and began to tape them one by one.

You know, Evan.

I spoke to Evan.

If we go to town, we have to go properly.

Yes.

How about going separately?

Why?

Its fun to just look for each other that day without knowing each other.

I put a na tag on my doll and continued, Lets bet. What do you think?

What bet?

To grant the wishes of the person who finds the other person first.

I chuckled as I spoke.

Granting a wish was a bait often used between close friends.

It sounded like youre betting on sothing huge, but you couldnt ask for sothing great even if you win because of our relationship. For example, doesnt it seem absurd to say, Actually, my wish is 1,000 gold, especially for a child like Evan who had everything he had?

It was just a fancy shell and an empty bait inside.

Well, all right.

Evan nodded indifferently.

What is the penalty for breaking?

Yes?

When making such a bet, of course, you should also consider the provision for breach of contract.

.

At the age of twenty, Evan was helping Duke Icard in so kind of political move.

I didnt know the details because I didnt e up to the capital very often, but he started taking a leap forward for those in power. Although he may not be the type of person who enjoys things like that, he seems to handle everything quite well.

At the age of thirteen, he literally said that he would do anything his father told him to do.

Well, it was also a natural flow of the original story. After all, Evan played a significant role in the rise of Duchy Icards power day by day. Even the power of Duke Orlando, who was now static, was clearly in a state of decline.

Perhaps, that was why hes been very thorough in work

That, well. What would be good?

No matter how much I thought of the contract violation clause, I was a little surprised.

The next mont, Evan closed the book without changing his expression. He then took out a piece of parchnt and began to write the contract.

[ The winner is defined as the first person to find the opponent and call their na after the start of the masquerade. ]

Where did our cute Evan go? When did you grow up so cold-blooded like Duke Icard?

Would it be such a big deal to make a bet to find each other at the masquerade?

[ In case of breach of contract, the loser agrees to grant all the demands of the victor for one day. ]

I swallowed a gulp when I saw the last phrase.

Youve grown terribly, Evan Icard. To expand the limit of the number of wishes to an unlimited number of tis.

Sign it.

Was it really necessary to do this for a playful bet between a couple? As I hesitated a little, Evan gazed into my eyes as if a little startled.

Oh, Laria. Sorry.

Yes, no matter how arranged marriage was, why was it so tight?

I must have been nervous again because it was in front of you. It was a little lacking.

Even though Id like to say that it was indeed a lack of action as a husband, Evan picked up the pen again.

[ The date and ti of the day shall be determined by the winner. ]

If it is not clearly stated, it can lead to controversy. I usually dont make mistakes like this, but it was my first contract with you, so I was nervous. Sorry.

It was not that youre lacking, it was that you dont have enough contracts.

With a friendly tone and a soft smile on his face, he handed the contract again.

How ticulous

Nonetheless, I couldnt say anything because I spoke up first. So, I ended up signing two contracts with the sa content.

Yes, take it all Human without blood or tears.

Now, Evan and I had e to a point where we couldnt even play pranks.

Even with , who was so good at childhood, you behave like this, of course, his married life with Elanie would be even more worse.

After sharing the contract with Evan, we started doing our own thing again. As he looked at the paperwork, I found my belongings in every corner of the room and labeled them.

I think I put it all together to so extent.

I was sleepy, so I yawned and got up after putting it on for a while.

Huh? Isnt this yours, too?

Evan asked, pointing to the cushion I had used before.

Oh, but Im out of breath. Im going to buy a new one thats a little more expensive and better. I think I still have more Ill do the rest later.

Okay, go to bed.

This

As I looked at my na tag that was still left, I frowned as if in surprise. Evan replied casually.

Leave it. Ill tell the servant to clean it up later.

To be honest, I had no intention of putting it away, so I smiled and waved my hand.

Okay. Good night, Evan. Sweet dreams.

As yawns ca one after another, I didnt see Evan get up quietly and hug my cushion. Of course, I didnt even see him sticking one of my na tags lying around on himself.
