Chapter 38.1
“Do you also like me, Cassel?”
Leilia asked cautiously.
“Of course. Otherwise, there’s no way I would do something like this, right?”
“Something like this?”
“You know what I mean.”
Saying so, he brought his lips close to Leilia’s lips and whispered.
“If I didn’t like you, I wouldn’t be coveting you like a beast. Don’t pretend you don’t know it when you do.”
As he scolded her stingingly before taking her lips again, their breathing grew ragged in the carriage.
He called her name sweetly.
Leilia, who was lost in the sensation of his lips, smiled wordlessly. She felt like she could understand her mother’s feelings, which she had thought she could never understand.

Leilia was sleeping soundly. As if exhausted from their constant affairs, she didn’t stir even when he got up.
Not wanting to see her looking sad, he had taken her roughly, causing Leilia to nearly loses herself in the swirling pleasure. Perhaps because he had kissed her so much to comfort her, she had embraced him with both hands in the end.
In that moment, he lost control again.
“Huu.”
Although he prided himself on his self-control more than anyone, it wasn’t easy with her.
Cassel looked at Leilia for a moment before putting on his clothes. It felt like he wanted to covet her again as she slept peacefully.
“I’m crazy.”
He was no different from a rutting beast.
After looking at himself like that, he took out the paper he had received from the Eloisa estate. It was something he hadn’t told Leilia in detail yet. As he opened the door and headed to his office, a man was waiting there, smiling.
“It’s been a while. But why did you suddenly want to see me?”
Chelias opened his mouth first.
“I need you to find a lawyer to notarize this document.”
At Cassel’s words, he looked at the document closely.
“The Eloisa family will no longer be able to exercise any rights over Madam Leilia?”
Chelias looked at Cassel.
“You’re trying to free your wife from her family, aren’t you? She was a pitiful person who was trapped because of them.”
This would give her freedom.
“I’m sure she’ll do well whatever she does. She made quite a strong impression at the academy.”
After he said that, Chelias added softly.
“Actually, my assistant position is vacant.”
As Chelias showed avarice, Cassel quickly glanced at him and uttered firmly.
“My wife is going down to the fiefdom with me.”
“But are you really not going to protest? His Majesty has been reflecting a lot and is eagerly waiting for you to extend your hand.”
Cassel’s contributions were too significant for him to simply accept the Balkan territory.
“Your accomplishments have contributed so much that even the nobles are opposing this matter.”
“Did His Majesty ask for help?”
“That’s part of it, but it’s also a little disappointing.”
“I wouldn’t trade my wife for anything.”
Chelias nodded his head at Cassel’s firm words.
“I’ll leave this notarization to His Majesty this time. And how about writing a letter of reconciliation?”
“Hmm.”
“You must consider the dignity of the imperial family as well. You know well where that arrow might land, don’t you?”
“Leilia told me to be cautious of you. I think I understand why.”
At his words, Chelias widened his eyes.
“I’m just an ordinary chancellor.”
He spoke as if he was being unfairly accused, but to Cassel, he seemed insincere.
“I’ll handle the matters of the territory.”
“Thank you.”
In the end, Chelias took what he wanted. It was true that Leilia said that he was the most frightening person. Still, he needed his help right now.

Chelias smiled quietly inside the carriage.
“To think I’m considered a dangerous person.”
Leilia Eloisa.
No, Leilia Jen Roten.
He murmured her name and stared out the window in silence.
“Unusual princes.”
When he thought of the prince of the Imperial Family, he didn’t like any of them.
Then, all of a sudden, Cassel Jen Roten appeared.
What he wished for was…
He was truly a man who was impure yet pure.
And the strange guardians surrounding him. He was really surprised when he discovered with difficulty that the guardian was the leader of the Hyllan Merchants Association. How could he live quietly despite being patronized by such a person? What exactly was this man?
That was how it started, and he had been observing him for years since then.
“Maybe someday he’ll gather a group of people together.”
Cassel knew how to value his subordinates, acknowledged competent people, and had both talent and uprightness.
“They resemble each other.”
Chelias recalled Leilia, who had once looked at him with clear eyes. She was the student representative at the academy when he visited.
〈 If you have some support, you can work in the Imperial Palace, too. 〉
He casually dropped such remarks once in a while. It was also his hobby to observe the other person who received the offer. However, Leilia’s expression turned serious at that statement.
〈 I’ll refrain from listening to words that you don’t mean. And if I can only rise to a position with the help of others, then it seems that’s not my place.〉
A bold young lady.
