Chapter 6

But the terrifyingly determined voice of Cassius flew in again. 

“But this is my duty as a high- ranking noble.” 

But as if he could ignore her grip, Cassius lightly brushed off her hand. Suddenly, her arm fell helplessly down. Claudia blankly looked up at him. She couldn’t find even a hint of warmth in Cassius’ gray eyes looking at her. Like that she couldn’t catch him twice.

After Cassius left for the battlefield, a month had passed. Claudia, who had to stay at the post writing center, had to live a life as if she were sitting on a cushion of thorns. The fiancee was such a being. A halfway seat, neither a guest nor an owner. However, since Douglas did not particularly take care of herself, her position was inevitably narrower. After lunch, Claudia took a walk in the garden by herself, biting off the maid’s child who said she would follow her. It was the only thing she could do here in Marquis Castle. There was not a single flower to be found in the Marquis’s garden, only green trees. 

“Haa.”

Claudia let out a deep sigh. She kept thinking that if Cassius had signed the marriage certificate and left, perhaps they would have been more comfortable than they are now. 

“Shall I send a letter to Cassius? To please sign the marriage certificate.” 

Claudia, who was talking to herself, soon discarded the idea. “No. If I did, He would only say that he would never do it, since that nature would not make me a widow.” 

A bitter smile automatically parted my lips and beeped out. Although they met very briefly, it wasn’t too difficult to guess his personality.

Cassius was a righteous man. Besides, he seemed obstinate. But Claudia didn’t appreciate the ambiguous consideration he gave her at all. If he really cared about her, he should have prepared a way for her to live on even if she became a widow, not to say that she would not rush into marriage because she would become a widow. 

“I just… want to return to the capital.” 

Claudia, who had muttered involuntarily, let out a timid, weak laugh. 

“But…it’s not my home either.” 

At that moment, something cold fell on my cheek. Claudia raised her hand and gently wiped her cheek. Water was felt on her fingertips. 

“Rain?” 

Claudia looked up at the sky. Dark clouds were gathering in the sky, which had been sunny when she came out. 

“Is it going to rain?” 

Claudia stopped walking a little earlier than usual. She hurriedly entered the front door and was about to go up to her room on the third floor. There were three maids mopping the stairs. They didn’t seem to notice Claudia’s appearance as they were cleaning up their respective parts
