How to Get My Husband on My Side Chapter 1
“I've finally found a worthy groom for you, darling,” announced Father, as he wiped off his lips with a napkin.
Laying on the knees of my oldest brother Cesare, I felt the urge to run back to my bedroom and throw up all the food I'd just eaten.
My second brother Enzo, who had been busily chowing down on an awfully smelly quenelle, slammed his fork down and cried out in protest.
“Not again! Father, how many times has it been already?”
“Enzo.”
“It hasn't even been three months since her last engagement was called off! Regardless of what our family would gain from this marriage, shouldn't you at least try to consider her feelings?”
“What a surprise to see you side with your little sister. Then would you rather battle the barbarians yourself instead of accepting Britannia's support?”
“What are you talking about? Those savage barbarians up north wouldn't stand a chance against the likes of me, the greatest, most noble soldier to ha—”
“Shut your trap, boy.”
The great noble soldier took the rest of the quenelle on his plate and shoved it into his mouth, aggressively chewing in protest.
The marriage proposal wasn't any surprise to me though. I knew that it would come sooner or later.
“Who is it, Father?”, I asked cheerfully.
My father, who had been staring disapprovingly at Enzo, looked back my way and smiled.
“He's Britannia's hero. The king's beloved nephew and famous knight of the South. He's very handsome, I'm sure you'll like him.”
“What! Father, do you know how bad his reputation is?!”
“Boy, was I talking to you?”
Enzo became quiet again.
