Bab 296: Biting more than he can chew

"Listen to me, even if marrying Vera to the prince may give us benefits, the risk is too much to take," lord Carrero says when he thought that the woman might have come back to her senses.

"No, we can definitely take the risk. The prince will not be too calculating. No matter what he will give a face to the wish of the people," lady Carrero refused to give in.

'Stupid' for the first time lord Carrero realized that his wife was stupid. In the time past her calculation and scheme might have brought him benefits.

Take for instance when they were young, there was a marriage agreement between his family and her family. Back then he was the eldest son but his father favored his brother who was a few months younger than him.

Of course, this has been because his father only married his mother to fulfill his family duty. As such she should have been the madam of the family but this was never the case.
