Forced Marriage: Thirteenth Wife

Thas right. Everything's true.

Eris knew Roxanne would think she was a servant, so Eris named Dwi. Eris also lied about not wanting to play Roxanne. From the beginning, Eris had been playing tricks on him. Even he lied to Arkas that this was sincerity.

From the beginning, Eris was not sincere at all. He told you, right? Eris wants to find out who did it. But ... Eris is at least honest about one thing.

He was really interested in Roxanne. It's not a lie even though in anyone's eyes it seems like a lie.

Well, that's a liar's risk. So often lying, when telling the truth, people will think it is a lie. Eris did not complain.

I found the culprit now and her relationship with Roxanne wasn't as strong as I thought. At first I thought the culprit was using Roxanne for worse, because she killed the Graean and blew up the castle.

He pushed Elios back to Narendra and I think he tried to take advantage of Arkas' affection for Roxanne. But, after meeting in person, it was not that dangerous.

Sanya wasn't very dangerous, in Eris's eyes.

"You're not hiding that smile now? At least not pretend to feel guilty?"

"I don't feel guilty" Eris answered honestly. "Maybe it's because I'm Narendra, Roxanne, so I don't feel wrong. I'm sorry I thought it made you happy."

From his voice Eris knew Roxanne was furious at him. Even a little bit of hate.

"At least you're honest now" said the woman.

"I'm not that lying." Eris smiled gently. "I'm not lying, basically. I'm just covering up the truth. You're angry because you don't know what other people know."

"So now I'm wrong?" ask him not to believe.

"That's right," answered Eris confidently.

Eris releases the cat from her lap and moves on. Stand in front of the woman. Eris added, "But, that doesn't mean you have to take responsibility yourself or deserve an apology. I'm just saying it's your fault for not knowing."

".... All Narendra turns out to be annoying."

"Maybe." Eris reached out to Roxanne's face. He didn't brush it off, but maybe because he was just lazy.

He just shut up. Eris waited for him to ask one thing.

Wh why? Why did Eris tell him to come here, preventing him from meeting Elios?

If he asked, Eris would be very happy to explain.

"I'm sorry." Eris's hand was suddenly brushed aside. "But I—no, I don't want to continue the conversation with you, at least until I die. See you in hell, Young Master."

She was adorable, Eris murmured while holding back a smile. He did not keep Roxanne from leaving, for at the door, Eris's servant held her back.

"Get aside," Roxanne orders them.

Eris palpated her seat before reoccupying the sofa. "I always smile when I feel like you're looking at me thinking I'm a good man."

Perhaps, Eris smiled most often because of that. Whenever he felt Roxanne's tone squeaky sweet, it meant that he was thinking Eris was very kind, very friendly, and very comfortable to befriend.

Eris often smiles because of that ....

"I'm not a good man." Eris let her cat approach and stroked them again. "I can do cruel and wise things at the same time."

The emotional reason Eris brought Roxanne here was: she did not want Roxanne to go over to Elios' side and hold him. Even though they were husband and wife, Eris felt jealous and was not willing to think about it.

Eris's logical reason for bringing Roxanne here is 'cause she knows that when Roxanne hugs Elios, Elios' plan goes back to normal and Sanya's plan will progressively enter the perfect stage.

So if Roxanne said Eris was just cheating on her, it might happen. And if Roxanne thinks Eris likes it, it can happen, too.

Which Eris can do.

"Eris—"

"Roxanne's." Eris just kept smiling. "You can't get out of this room unless I let you. Because it was a direct order from Second Young Master Narendra."
