Forced Marriage: Thirteenth Wife
124

"Roxanne, it's me."

Roxanne was waiting for Elios. Sanya tells him the possibility of Elios only coming after he finishes talking to Arkas. But knocking on the door of his room was not Elios, but Arkas.

The man came while both his hands were wrapped in bandages.

"What's going on?" Roxanne wants to get up from the bed to greet him, but before that happens, Arkas drops into Roxanne's arms first.

Of course, Roxanne was surprised. His hand was held in the air, not knowing what to do.

Eventually, he hugged the man.

"What's up, Young Master?" Roxanne could feel Arkas' frustrated breath. "Did Young Master Elios trouble you again?"

Arkas buries his face into Roxanne's shoulder. "Of course." Arkas continued to tighten his embrace. "How do you think I should?"

Why did he ask Roxanne? What advice could Roxanne give when they all just saw Roxanne as a fool?

"Sometimes," Arkas looks up to him, "i hope this family doesn't survive."

Ah, now Roxanne understands Sanya's intentions. The devil is scary. How could he even know the weaknesses of people he rarely met?

Arkas is very responsible. He put Narendra above all else. But it was precisely because of this that he was the most and very tired of Narendra himself.

He hides his disgust for responsibility.

"Everyone hides their faults and fatigue, Young Master." Roxanne whispered softly. "If you're tired of being in charge, then you need to rest for a while and gather some energy before getting back in charge."

Arkas laughing. "That's right."

"Sleep. I'll accompany you all night."

No sound at all. Looks like Arkas slept in there, too. In Roxanne's arms.

"He's getting very sensitive." Eris murmured. "To the extent of going over to Roxanne's side rather than his wife's, is it because of Elios?"

No. gabe. Elios' words had indeed slightly shaken Arkas, but Arkas' hatred for Elios was not small so he should not have been too disturbed.

Then why is Arkas so disturbed?

"Is Roxanne bothering him?"

Even if Eris knows everything—but everything itself is relative and depends on the situation.

Eris could not even know Roxanne's mood swings let alone her changing goals and desires. That's why Eris still doesn't know why Arkas came to Roxanne, or how far Roxanne's involved in this.

"At first I felt like he was just being controlled by Sanya." Eris recalled the days she spent with the woman. "But now it feels like he and the girl are starting to go a different way."

Why yes? Did Sanya just deliberately confuse Eris? Of course Eris doesn't know what Sanya's goals are, but from the girl's character and character, making Arkas and Roxanne on the same side it's a little absurd.

Heh. Eris was a little tired thinking about all this.

"I miss Roxanne." Eris could not see but imagined her hand holding Roxanne.

She's the girl who made Eris not stop thinking about her. Not special, not smart, not sensitive, and not understanding things that are actually easy to understand for Eris.

"A normal woman" said Eris, smiling. "Very different from Nernia."

So ordinary and not special, Eris so continue to want to be with him. Why should she be Elios' wife? If she were Eris' wife, she would really take care of her.
