Forced Marriage: Thirteenth Wife
93

Arkas knocked on Eris's bedroom door even though it was wide open. Though actually there is no need because Arkas also directly entered, approaching the brother of his mother and father.

Well, literally they're cousins, but the word 'cousin' in Narendra is unused. All those born to Narendra's wife are Narendra's brothers.

"Jeez." Arkas dropped down next to Eris, then laid his head on the man's lap. "You're making it look like I'm so bad in front of Roxanne."

Eris smiled as she was busy looking up at the sky. Of course, he didn't see anything. "I'm just talking what I am."

"And it was you who suggested Elios' punishment to me. Why was it that I was so impressed that I decided to torture that son of a bitch?" arkas protest.

"I'm just suggesting, the decision remains with you."

Basic nosy people. Arkas just snorted and closed his eyes. Coming to Eris when her mind was tired was Arkas' habit, so she wanted to rest.

"Arc." Eris called out to him. "A big brother is in charge of making sure his sister doesn't mislead herself."

Arkas smiled wryly. "So that means I have to make sure you're not lost?"

"Maybe" he answered.

"Stop acting sober, you old man." Arkas got up, sat down well this time. "Just because you first formed in Aunt's stomach, the fact I was born first did not change. I'm the big brother."

Eris snorts. "Who mentioned that?"

"I feel offended."

"Boy brother," said Eris, who knew that Arkas was pouting. Although before long Eris' expression calmed down again and her voice became serious. "You want to talk about Roxanne?"

"Hm." Arkas grabbed a pinch of Eris' long, soft hair.

"I was just wondering," Arkas murmured, "you ... want to do what to my sister-in-law?"

"He's my brother-in-law too."

"Stop joking, Brother Different My Week." Arkas smiled a little. "You've stopped thinking of Elios as your sister since Eirene left."

"...."

"Well, Eris. I don't care if you take revenge, but Elios' wife is still my sweet sister-in-law. Don't involve them."

Eris was silent but she immediately smiled. "I don't take revenge on anyone, you idiot," he retorted.

Well, maybe Arkas too.

"I love you, First Brother" said Arkas sincerely as his brother.

Eris chuckles. "You've had that kind of weakness a long time ago."

No. gabe. That's not weakness according to Arkas. He hopes Eris knows that Arkas also loves him as a brother. As a friend who bears a heavy destiny.

"All right." Eris reached out, patting Arkas on the head. "I love my first brother too. Well, even if I was born at the time of prediction, I'm the big brother."

"Basas an envious fellow."

"That's a fact."

Arkas smiled a little. Afterwards enjoying the silence between them only for his heart to calm down as well.

In fact, it may even be getting more agitated. Far away in Arkas' day, he feels Eris is looking to hurt Roxanne.

Maybe it's just Arkas' feeling.

Roxanne still could not move much, but after knowing the condition of Elios of Dwi, inevitably he begged Arkas to make sure.

Of course Roxanne has been lazy to approach Elios let alone pretend to care for him. But Roxanne still has to play her role, because now Graean is no more.

At first glance, Graean might be like a shitty woman who likes to set up. But without him, Elios' wives might be under control. If now Mariana tries to hurt Roxanne again, there seems to be no guarantee Roxanne is okay.

Elios is needed.

"But where is everyone?" Roxanne muttered in annoyance as she continued walking dragging her infusion pole.

Either this residence is too spacious or what, but Roxanne has trouble finding everyone. Moreover, he also could not carelessly go around in the Narendra region.

"Huh." Roxanne let out a rough sigh. "I should have asked Dwi to come with me."
