บท 379: Elred's True Intentions

Alma POV 15/17

-----

What a corny little boy! S-seriously… Why does he need to act like this? I can't believe it!

But… he did say his life has been filled with darkness, gloominess, and he even told me later that he sometimes didn't even find a reason to live. Perhaps his training is quite harsh back then. I don't know why but it seems that he might have experienced something similar to my brother…

I don't exactly know how many things he had gone through, but it's truly intriguing to me to know more. I don't know why I am growing so interested in this stupid arranged husband…

"S-Sorry for what I did before, I shouldn't have acted so rashly… D-Did I scare you?" he sighed.

We were now moving back home in a carriage, while Rose led the carriage.

I was mostly looking at the window because I feel embarrassed each time I look at his face now. Since he confessed his love that it feels weird to look at him… Ugh.
