“If that’s not the case, then it’s worse. Who in their right mind would keep his wife tied up like a slave like this?”
“This is all your fault, Elisha.”
Lucerne said calmly.
“You have no right to protest.”
“I suppose so. Since you’ve already tied up like this, why don’t you discipline with a rod? If you shackle up and hit , I might beco more obedient. Oh, you already beat it, right?”
Lucerne looked at Elisha and smiled briefly.
“You know how to get angry.”
“Is there any reason to endure this situation?”
Elisha cald her wildly beating heart.
“Why did you lock up?”
“I’ve been wanting to do this from the beginning. But I resisted the urge.”
“………. .”
“Unfortunately, you did everything you wanted to do in our marriage.”
Lucerne approached, stroking her ankle.
“So how many tis should I say you brought this upon yourself.”
“…………..”
“Did your head get injured after drinking poison and sleeping for a long ti?”
Lucerne clicked his tongue. Elisha turned downcast and bit her lip. She lowered her head.
“What happens to now?”
“Just as you imagine.”
Lucerne concluded her fate very briefly.
“You wait here for , and I co to you. It won’t be any different from what it was like before. I’m just trying to prevent you from running away.”
Elisha felt insulted. She once dread that she would continue to see him. Even after her divorce, she had always dread of being with him. Lucerne was mocking her, quoting her words exactly as she had said them. [t1v: as in when she said they would divorce, but everything would be the sa]
“…….This is a breach of our contract.”
“That was our contract from the beginning. You are not free. You gave your body to . And I have the right to decide your life. There is no violation of the contract here.”
Lucerne leaned over Elisha.
“You tried to make a secret agreent. Who are you running away from?”
Elisha’s eyes shook when she heard that she was running away. She lowered her eyes.
“I never tried to run away.”
“I am highly sensitive.”
Lucerne said.
“I can’t tolerate playing around behind my back.”
“…….. You can’t do this to . I don’t want this.”
Lucerne nodded unhurriedly.
“That’s right, you wanted a divorce. I can do that if you want.”
“………”
“After that, you will beco my mistress. Then are you satisfied?”
Tears welled up in Elisha’s eyes. The wounds inflicted by Lucerne were too great. It hurt more than before.
“There’s no use crying.”
Lucerne stated unfeelingly.
“Whether you cry or go crazy. You’re going to have to live here. That won’t change.”
“Why-why……..”
Tears fell from Elisha’s eyes.
What she always wanted from him was so small.
She wanted to live like an ordinary, healthy, independent individual. She wanted to be loved like a free person. However, the more she struggled, the more complicated things beca, the more she suffered, and in the end, even being alive beca an anathema. Elisha felt like her heart was breaking apart by the agony.
‘Did I do sothing wrong this ti too?’
Just like that one day in her past life. Even if Lucerne didn’t cut her down. She realized that sothing happened to their relationship ……… She could tell sothing went wrong.
“… …I just– I wanted to create a safeguard, a hideout, just in case. Just in case you betrayed … …. . If I had known you would be this angry, I wouldn’t have done that.”
The extre situation unblocked her mind in a wrong way. Elisha spoke and then closed her mouth.
“So did I. This is my safeguard, a hideout, in case you betray .”
“………”
“But you failed and I succeeded in putting you in hiding, didn’t I?”
Lucerne reached out and held out his hand. Elisha looked up and stepped back, trying to avoid him.
“Ah!”
In a flash, her body fell to the bed. He pressed Elisha’s hands against the sheets.
“Don’t touch .”
Elisha gritted her teeth. She wanted to swear at him. She hated him. He was always shaking her heart. It didn’t matter what life it was. He made her crazy. She hated him to the point where her heart broke, and he ruined her with a mont’s embrace.
“What? Why don’t you go on? Afraid it will feel like rape? Because you’re sound enough to be successful. Do you want to tell you sothing? You were happy when I took the poison and passed out, right? Because you could wipe out Carola and make the patriarch indebted to you. You took advantage of the situation and of , and went on a calculated rampage. What are you going to get from the Head now? Do you think it’s alright to use until the very last drop?”
“…. … Is that what you really think?”
“Either that, or you can’t stand defying you.”
“Ah, right. That part is correct.”
Lucerne tilted his head towards her. Furious, Elisha was harshly biting her lip. He swallowed her lips. Shaking her head, she resisted the kiss that was tornting her frantically. Only after her lower lip was bruised did he fall. She felt a sharp pain on her lip.
“That’s right.”
Lucerne whispered.
“From now on, if you disobey , know that clothes will be a luxury.”
