The Second Life Of The Mercenary
Chapter 46 The meaning of the word suffering

Chapter 46

Edmund brought a newspaper today for Charlize, though she knew her employer didn't like to read the news. But he still does it every day, even though such a thing will only trouble him.

After breakfast Charlize went straight to her study to check some important documents, before the morning practice hours began.

"What'sthis? newspaper again," inner Charlize glanced at the newspaper on her desk.

He ignored the newspaper and began his work, suddenly the wind blew from the window making several sheets of paper fly along with the newspaper.

"Ck! Edmund's habit of always forgetting to close the window, I'll include him later," Charlize's mind rose from her seat and picked up the flying paper.

"News shake?" charlize muttered unintentionally reading the news headline today because the newspaper page was open after being blown by the wind.

Charlize took the newspaper and read the news, and that was when Charlize was stunned for a while and laughed with tears.

"Duke I mem ..." Edmudn's remark was cut off as Charlize directly ran out of her study.

"Duke, where are you going?" shouted Edmund. But unfortunately there was no answer, when Charlize through just a moment she saw there was a smile on Charlize's face that did not know what the reason behind the smile was.

Charlize apparently wanted to rush to her mother's residence. He left on a horse, because he wanted to quickly tell his mother the good news. He could not wait to see what his mother would react if he knew about it.

Arriving there Charlize's cheerful face changed when she saw her mother drinking tea with Regina, both of whom looked very happy.

"The charlize? when did you come?" regina asked as her gaze unintentionally fell on Charlize who was standing not far from them.

"Just now, I've come specifically to see mother," Charlize replied as she approached the two women, "Can you stay with us first, Regina? I want to be alone with mom."

"Loh why? when you were a kid you always asked me to talk to mom and now you want me to go. I also want to know what you want to talk about, or maybe you want to talk about me? if so then you're cheating," Regina replied in a spoiled manner.

"Regina's right. Regina is not an outsider anymore, mother already considers her like her own mother's daughter. It's not polite to ask people who arrive first to leave anyway" Dara added

"It's about Isabella ma'am, I've found her" Cedric said.

Her mother was very surprised. He smiled happily because he was finally able to meet the person who had saved his son's life, his waiting for so many years was now avenged.

"Who is Isabella, mother? why don't I know about that woman?" regina asked pretending to be stupid, "Is he Charlize's best friend too? if that's true then we can invite him to my and Charlize's wedding."

The deg!

"Wedding? don't be silly! I will marry Isabella not you, never expect you to take Isbaella's place" Charlize said.

"Who's engaged to you is me, then why do you even want to marry Isabella. You better not forget that our engagement was approved by the emperor directly."

"If it has been approved by the emperor then why? who's getting married is me so I'm entitled to break this marriage off whenever I want, did you forget the reason behind our engagement?"

"This engagement isn't about you. You have no right to break this engagement unilaterally, the emperor will not remain silent and allow yourself to act at will. Foolish for the reason behind our relationship, because somehow I'm the daughter of a marquess."

"We'll see what the emperor's answer will be, even if the emperor doesn't agree I don't care. I just need to marry you and then after that I will exile you to a remote place, where you will live alone to witness my happiness with Isabella. You want to eliminate Isabella, right? then eliminate him! I'll see if you dare or not" Charlize's challenge sparked Regina's anger.

Dara stood up from her seat and pulled Charlize away from Regina's presence, unable to stay silent to see the quarrel of her son and future daughter-in-law.

Dara took Charlize to her room. Not forgetting he locked the door so no one could get inside, "Are you aware of what you've been saying? you've hurt that woman's heart. Why could you do something like that to her? your way of doing that shows that you've been educating you the wrong way."

"This engagement shouldn't have happened. This is also the mother's fault, why did you immediately agree with the uncle's words at that time? though I know very well who all the love in my heart is for" replied Charlize.

"But at that time your uncle said you loved Regina, after all she was your best friend from childhood. And your father's been hoping since you were born you'd marry Regina, what …."

"Mom won't understand. Uncle has been draining a lot of money from me because of this relationship, and Regina has hurt a lot of women close to me. How can I marry him, hum? hows it? the cruel woman until she intends to eliminate Isabella, she pretended not to know Isabella even though all this time she also sought Isabella to be eliminated," explained Charlize cut Dara's speech.

"Uncle owed me a lot and then gave up his daughter as collateral, and secretly told lies to his mother and the emperor. The man was my best friend, but he betrayed my father after he died. I don't know if she intends to marry me to be her concubine, that brash man has liked me since I was alive. I knew all of that when I heard the uncle's conversation with his son" Charlize continued.

Dara sat on the floor after hearing the explanation from Charlize, she did not expect that the man who had been her husband considered as a brother was even rotten. Feeling so guilty to Charlize that not being able to understand her son's heart well, she almost made the grave mistake of marrying Regina to Charlize. Dara does not want a cruel, crazy, and selfish woman like Regina to be her daughter-in-law.

"I forgive mom for acting so recklessly. But you don't worry anymore, I'm going to go see the emperor and break off this engagement. You're not gonna marry that woman, forever never will be. So calm down and trust this to mom" Charlize pinta.

Charlize was furious. But the anger disappeared immediately in an instant, he realized he had acted too late to his mother this time. 

"I'm sorry mom. Forgive me for hurting my mother" said Charlize, giving a warm hug to the woman she loved so much.

"How dare you Regina. I'll repay what you did to Charlize, you'll have to pay a huge fee for what you did to Charlize. You've made my son very angry. I'll make you beg for your own death, or don't call me Dara if I don't make you feel what the word suffering means" Dara said. His murderous soul thrashed about wanting to behead Regina.
