Trash Will Always Be Trash

After six years of war, my fiancé finally returned.

He brought back a woman who was carrying his child.

He said he couldn’t abandon that woman,

and only demanded that I fulfill my duties as a duchess.

“Leila, you are not yet a duchess.”

At that indifferent remark, I decided to break off the engagement.

****

“How much am I allowed to do as I please?”

A brief silence fell. Realizing belatedly that I’d said something strange, I hurriedly tried to smooth things over.

“I apologize, Your Majesty. I wasn’t trying to ask something like that, it’s just…….”

[Anything.]

Callian cut me off and answered.

His voice didn’t sound angry. Rather, he almost seemed to be laughing.

[Anything is fine, as long as you’re not selling out the country. You are my proxy now.]

……What exactly would you do if I really sold the country?
