I had read this story before and even reread to a point where I could say so of the famous dialogue's that the famous characters said at one point to sohow change fate and make either friends or enemies to lovers.
So hearing the sa sentence that Samantha says to a villain in the future, I kinda felt bland. It wasn't that she didn't pour her heart out or she was lying because she wasn't. She had openly spoken the honest truth from her heart.
But reading such things multiple tis had an effect on that washed away the excitent I used to get before. Maybe because there isn't any sad or encouraging background music. Probably.
The words might not have any effect on but my objective was complete. Well… I wanted her to say a few angry words and then realize her mistake but it's better that she went the shortcut.
Inhaling a large breath and exhaling, I understood that the attack thod used right now wouldn't bring any benefits when she already apologized. I'm not one of those Chinese reincarnates.
I'm Japanese.
So I smiled as I gave a new outlook together and said, "Alright… I feel that I might have said more than I should have and you are also correct about sothing."
"I could have protested a bit but I didn't." I said with fake sadness.
"Why didn't you?" She asked, "Was he so bad towards you that you didn't even want to talk to him?"
"No no," I smiled, knowing that she was reeling my way, "He didn't treat badly, as you can see from my appearance."
Samantha gave an awkward smile, hearing insult myself.
"You know that I am a bastard, right?" Seeing that she didn't say anything, I take that as a yes. "Even if I am the only son he has, I am not a legitimate one."
"He could had have one you know… a legitimate child. But he didn't."
"It wasn't because of the sex, because he had many." I said, as so mories kept flickering back to .
"I once asked him why he doesn't have one. Especially when I don't look the part at all." She listened in closely. "And he said that I was my mother's perfect image."
"I was as pure and innocent just like her and that I was his last mory of her." I said and then laughed, "I sure hope he wasn't talking about her being fat though."
"Haha"
I look up and see Samantha laughing as a drop of tear dropped from her eye.
"I'm sorry, I didn't an to laugh-"
"It's okay, I said so that you would." I said and turned to end the topic, "So that's basically the reason I listen to his every words. Because even though I am of fault, he didn't say anything an and only tried to help ."
"I didn't study enough but that wasn't a problem to him and when he saw that I wasn't legitimate enough," I turned and looked her in the eye, "He arranged an earl's daughter to be my wife."
Samantha's eyes enlarged as she finally understood why this happened. This didn't happen because my father wanted power… well, he very much did but he also wanted to legitimize by marrying soone of great status.
And also to get the earl status, but let's keep that part to us.
"But with him gone… I think we should stop this."
"I… I'm sorry," Samantha said, her voice breaking from the multitude of emotions going through her, "Without even knowing why that man had done such a thing, I beca angry and went on to get an army."
"Yes, about that," I said as a question ca to my head, "Why did you prepare an army?"
I've read the story multiple tis but it was never really told why she disobeyed her father so much and prepared an army. The Author also didn't go to any detail to so I was curious.
"Oh! I didn't at first." Samantha said and looked at the portrait of this body's father that was hung behind the main desk and said, "I sent multiple letters to you're father, asking him to listen and cancel this wedding. But he didn't reply to even one of my letters."
"I also tried talking to my father so many tis but…" Her eyes shook in anger, "He would say that he can't do anything about it anymore."
"Why? Why is that?"
"Why? Don't tell you don't know?"
I shook my head as Samantha sighed in tiredness, "You father, One day he got my father drunk and made him sign a… docunt and… and…"
"Blackmailed him, right." She nodded subtly.
"Alright, so we remove this paper and both of us will be free to marry whoever we want, right or is there anything else?"
"Well, my father has one copy of it but if we destroy the one your father had then I can take care of my father." She said and smiled for the first ti since coming her.
I had to say that look of hope reigniting within her had a certain charm and I understood why she would be the second heroine.
But why was it that... I had a desire to crush it?
"Okay so first thing, I don't know where it is, but I know soone who might."
"Anna"
The door imdiately opened up as she said, "Yes, master."
She was listening to our conversation the whole ti, right? Well, I will be sure to punish her later for now…
"Call Redwick."
"Okay"
A while later, a knock ca from the door and Redwick ca in.
"Master, you calle- What happened here!" Redwick said looking at the broken table and then looked at Samantha to see if she was hurt or not, but in contrary she shyly avoided his eyes.
"Don't worry about it, slight anger managent issue." I waved him away from the table, "Do you know where father puts his important docunts."
"Yes, I do."
"Nice. Then you should also know where the docunt of marriage regarding and Ms. Samantha here should be."
"… What marriage docunt?"
