Thus, his words could be interpreted as I’ll make you into an Empress.
The Fromandi Household sold off Carden to the Capital at the chance for wealth, fame, and authority that had walked in. They had brainwashed her that if she became the Empress, she could raise the status of the household.
After she had entered society by force, she went through all different eventful days and had been named the Flower of Society by the Emperor as Duke Biron had promised.
Lady of Lilies.
It was the nomination that Vivian had also recently heard. Since everyone had called her Lily instead of her given name – she hadn’t even thought that Carden would be the Lady of Lilies.
However, if the story ended there, it could be seen as a happy ending. Wasn’t it the want of aristocratic ladies to become the Flower of Society who command all the men of the Capital with a twitch of a finger?
However, unfortunately, this was not a story, but reality. Carden was being tortured in between the Emperor and Duke Biron in the present progressive case.
She was stuck in between the man she truly loved and the man she had to marry to raise the reputation of her household.
Carden was the kind of person who was unable to express herself to the point of frustration of others. She smiled when she liked it, disliked it, or was in a difficult position. Her inherent kindness, she was stuck in between this man and that man, and unable to reject either of them. Her ambiguity had finally earned the hatred of the Duke she loved.
Of course, that didn’t mean that Carden was the only one at first. How was it her fault that only authoritative and selfish men appeared at her side?
Both the Emperor and the Duke strongly believed that their love was to be accepted and no matter how strongly the other party rejected them, neither had the capacity to listen to them and acted out violently.
Why was she associated herself with such bastards……, no, such people, was a question Vivian would never understand, and all she could do was accept the differences between her and Carden. Maybe she liked bada*ses.
Carden said she had started to sincerely love Duke Biron from some point in time. It wasn’t something that was imaginable from the current situation, but Duke had also sworn eternal love as well. However, ever since she’d become involved with the Emperor, everything had started to change little by little.
She wasn’t trying to quantify who did more right and wrong between the couple. However, the two seemed to have already crossed a river that shouldn’t have been crossed, and the deepened emotions seemed to only become hopelessly complicated.
Only
Just break up.
The words she had been unable to say at the time had come up to her throat.
It would become chaotic if one applied the theories of novels to reality. This was what Vivian had realized.
There is nothing left in this world when you hide your feelings.
She understood that it was painful to not be able to sufficiently express your affection when the other person had been able to express her affection fully. If one didn’t say how much they loved their beloved, no matter how much you shouted your love after their relationship had become twisted, they would not hear it. There was nothing worse than a relationship where love only hurt them more separation.
Her relationship with Ray was of passing acquaintances – they did not ask about each other, let alone whisper their affections towards each other. However, it would be disappointing to just become strangers, and she had decided it would be better to passionately thrust herself onto him even if she was rejected.
I don’t even wish to be the protagonist. But I don’t want to be remembered as extra 1 by Ray.
Vivian had a shameless personality that didn’t have even a touch of shyness, but she was still the type of person to never reveal her feelings in front of the person she liked. It was a result of being single for so long and thought that it was pointless because of her chastity oath.
