How To Get My Husband On My Side

Chapter 120

"......."

"Well, I did find it surprising at that time, but it didn't seem weird."

"What? Why?"

"I don't know. Maybe it's because anything is possible here. Furthermore... I think I felt that Ruby could actually pull it off. After all, you've been that way all this time."

"Was I really that unpredictable?"

"Didn't you know? Take this morning for example."

My sister-in-law, who was shaking her head, tied the ribbon of my cape in a bow.

It was at this moment that I smiled silently.

There was a knock on the door.

"Are you there, my lady?"

Wasn't that the voice of the butler?

"What's going on?"

"I apologize, my lady. Lady Furiana has come to pay a visit."

You could make out his hesitant tone.

He definitely looked flustered. I didn't know why.

After a moment of silence, Ellenia glanced at me and then replied to him.

"Tell them we're busy and send her back. I already said the same last time."

"I'm sorry but she didn't ask for Young Miss, so I'm reporting to my lady...."

"What?"

"Lady Furiana asked to see the Duchess."

What did that mean?

Ellen and I stared blankly at each other.

To be honest, I hadn't thought of Freya at all.

There were some things she didn't do on purpose, but my head was full of other thoughts already, and I only felt bad when I thought about her.

The temple issues, including Freya, were not something I should think about and judge alone.

But Freya visited me out of the blue today?

"The timing is not good. Just send her back..."

"No!"

I hurriedly interrupted Ellenia's words.

Her red eyes widened.

"Ruby, you don't have to force yourself to meet her. I can...."

"I'm not forcing myself. I have something to talk about."

"I don't think it's a good idea. Besides, you have to go out later."

"We don't know when it will be yet, so can't I meet her for a bit?"

"But Ruby...."

"It's all right, Ellen. Really. She's your old friend anyway."

Whether it was for me or not, I couldn't make out Ellenia's stance. Even after she let go of the nanny who had been looking after her since she was young.

In addition, I wondered why Freya wanted to see me.

"...Are you sure you don't mind?"

"Sure, did you forget who I am?"

Somehow, on a snowy winter afternoon, there was the rare scene of me setting up a tea table in my greenhouse garden, which added to the glorious scenery ahead.

With Freya seated beside me.

The last image I remembered of Freya was in the room of mirrors in the Angvan Palace.
