Forced Marriage: Thirteenth Wife
61

You Arkas sucks. Who's she supposed to be advising Roxanne? Does he know what it is like to live under Elios?

He lived in a different place and became the Young Master that everyone respected, so how could he know it was like to be tormented here.

Irritatingly. He and Elios are both obnoxious.

"What makes you smile like that?"

Roxanne gasped in shock, until she did not realize that she was nagging with a smile. It was like Roxanne slapped herself, because she was even tepergok by Diane.

"Nothing." Roxanne cleared her throat. "I mean, no. I'm not smiling."

Diane looked at Roxanne suspiciously. Even if you ask the wind, surely the wind will answer that Roxanne was smiling widely.

He looks happy. No, maybe it's more appropriate to call it looking like you're enjoying something fun?

"You just met First Young Master, right?"

Roxanne cleared her throat slowly. "What's wrong? First Madam called me?"

"No." Diane shrugged her shoulders. "I'm just curious. Not many things happened in this place so the arrival of the Young Master attracted attention. You don't like being asked?"

Not so either. Roxanne doesn't really hate Diane. In fact, so far only he has paid little attention to Roxanne even though he doesn't really care.

"No. Doesn't matter. You're talking to me anyway to make sure I don't make a mistake, right? That helps."

Diane nodded confirming, then quietly followed Roxanne walking.

Because the opportunity to talk to each other rarely comes, Roxanne immediately thinks of the questions she wants to ask.

"Who was Young Master's wife who put my name up that day?"

Roxanne was not injured as everyone expected, but still the woman blatantly attacked Roxanne.

"Him? She was the last wife of the Young Master before you came. Her name is Sanya."

"I don't know." Diane answered without hesitation. "So far, he's arguably the most mysterious. He's below you, if not wrong. Hasn't reached twenty years. He never spoke to anyone but First Lady. Those last few months don't seem to be anymore."

Roxanne thinks she's from Mariana's camp, but she isn't? Then why did the kid file for Roxanne?

"Just a suggestion from me, but Sanya is no ordinary girl. There was something special about him until Mariana did not bother him either. So better forget it. After all, he gave a logical suggestion."

Sacrificing Roxanne to protect herself.

Heh. And Arkas spoke compassion when things went on like this in the house of Elios?

Suddenly Roxanne was a keceea again.

"I think Young Master is waiting for you. Go." Diane stopped following Roxanne right after they reached the stairs.

Roxanne nodded and no longer turned around. His mind was a little busy thinking about that Sanya that Diane said don't think about.

Frankly, Roxanne kind of hated the boy afterwards. He pushed Roxanne when he himself had an obligation. If Roxanne gets hurt at Elios's hands instead of having a sweet first night, can she be held responsible?

Moreover, Roxanne could not think of the reason Sanya hated her like Mariana. He was not close to Elios, so why should he be jealous if the reason was jealousy?

"House and family are this confusing." Roxanne was suddenly upset again. Massaging his forehead hard, feeling the veins in his head throbbing.

But, it makes Roxanne accidentally see the bite marks Elios.

He left many traces on Roxanne's body. Arkas had just smiled foolishly.

"Enjoying, huh?" Roxanne smiled wryly. "Enjoying without having to love. You weird Narendra."

It is better that he does not think logically of the mindsets of those people, because his head will only hurt.

Let's go back, be slaves, and wait for the right time to make a move.
