Chapter 7 – [Part 1]
As she followed the maid, Min-ha entered the living room in the central mansion and faced Duke Seth Person, who was sitting on the sofa with an unpleasant expression.
TL/N: I still get jealous~
As if he had returned from a short vacation, he was dressed in much more colorful clothes compared to when they first met outside the mansion, which made his handsome appearance stand out even more. He looked at Min-ha, who was standing at the door of the living room, and said.
“According to the head of the mansion, you didn’t come to the East Annex. Where and what the hell have you been doing?”
“…….Oh, well, I was lost. So, instead of cleaning the East Annex, I cleaned the North Annex instead…….”
“North Annex? You were there?”
“Yes…….Was it a place I wasn’t allowed to enter?”
At my honest answer, Seth frowned. Then, he laughed and said sarcastically as if he could not believe it.
“No way. I can’t believe that you went into the mansion where my mother, who had always ignored you as a vulgar commoner, once lived and cleaned it up on your own.”
“……..Oh.”
“Rather, it looks as though you simply rolled on the floor full of dust.”
“Excuse me. I cleaned it up properly.”
“I see.”
“…….I beg your pardon?”
Min-ha shouted angrily at Seth’s sarcastic remarks, but he only snorted. Then, he walked towards Min-ha and said as he brushed off the dust at the end of her sleeve.
“I see you’ve changed since you’re telling a lie that makes sense. If you were your usual self, you would have said such a lie with perfectly clean clothes.”
“What you’re saying is I’m a liar who covered her clothes with dust to get paid even if I didn’t clean it up, right?”
“Then, am I wrong?”
Min-ha glared at Seth, who was looking down at her within a step away.
I know what has happened so far, but why are you so persistent in not believing a single word that comes out of Minase Persen’s mouth? You didn’t even take the effort to ask someone to find out the truth.
Min-ha, who didn’t want to back down, asked Seth all of a sudden.
“If you can’t even trust me, why did you give me a job inside the mansion?”
“……What?”
“Isn’t that right? If you knew beforehand that I was going to lie about working for real, wouldn’t it be better if you gave me a job outside the mansion? It’s more efficient, isn’t it? You no longer have to look at the face you despise, and you can kick me out of the mansion way quicker.”
TL/N: Damn, stan an independent queen.
“…….Ha, you speak quite well. Who do you want me to introduce you to when you’re a lady of noble birth who has never worked before? Do I have to lose face just to give you a job?”
“Is there someone who has been good at their job from the start? You learn many things as you work. Perhaps that would actually enable you to avoid humiliation as well. If I leave this mansion, it would mean that you have divorced me and I’d have nothing to do with you from then on.”
“You’re making it sound as if I’m holding onto you because I have lingering feelings for you.”
She asked because she really wanted to know, however, after hearing Min-ha’s words, Seth’s blue eyes narrowed as if he was displeased. Then, Seth, who made a cold laugh at Min-ha who was looking up at him, said in a low voice.
“Don’t get me wrong. Do you think I have any lingering feelings for you? There’s no way I’d still have for a woman like you. I just wanted to see with my own eyes how you would do the things you hated so much.”
“……..”
“However, you escaped like a fox. Everyone was looking for you. Yet, you pretended to be lost on purpose and headed to the North Annex instead of the East Annex to avoid my men and I’s surveillance, right?”
“…….On purpose? Is there anyone in this world who would like to get lost on purpose?”
“Well, aren’t you able to have a secret affair with another man behind my back using a secret passage in this mansion that even I am unaware of? Do you think I would trust you if you said you got lost?”
