Because She Had A Time Limit, She Became The Villain’s Daughter-in-law - Chapter 70

Chapter 70

“It’s getting late, so hurry up and get some rest.”

“Yes!”

Once again, I was surprised when I entered the Duke’s mansion.

‘What is this…’

The interior was completely changed, similar to Borotna’s villa.

“Miss Laria said that she liked the interior of the villa.”

Seeing my reaction, Morande kindly explained. “So similarly, I changed the interior of the Duke’s residence.”

‘I think I said that in the letter.’

[ The more I spend time at this villa, the better it gets. I like everything. ]

No… How could you turn the Duke’s mansion into a villa…

“The props that you are particularly fond of have been embodied exactly the same.”

There were all the things I talked about as if passing by like ‘this vase is so pretty.’

Perhaps, Lisa delivered it.

“I told them to have the same dresses and accessories you liked to wear. I couldn’t bring all of them.”

No, Father… Don’t waste your dark skills on this.

“Is, is that also mine?”

“Then, will it be mine?”

Oh, my gosh.

If you thought that I would be truly touched or liked by this reckless beating with money… Right. Thank you for such an inefficient waste of money.

I only enjoyed wearing the most expensive ones because expensive ones were good, though I didn’t know that taste would be so helpful. Even the room Evan and I shared was similar to mine at the villa. Among them, looking at one of the walls, I couldn’t help but laugh awkwardly.

My photo taken at the horse race and Evan’s photo taken at the awards ceremony of the youth swordsmanship contest were hung side by side.

“Does it look good?”

To say such a thing abruptly, but Evan said calmly with his arms folded.

“But, it’s a bit disappointing that only your back was photographed.”

“Huh? Well, there is nothing I can do about it.”

Nevertheless, I couldn’t say that the picture of Evan, who was making a creepy expression at the awards ceremony, was better…

“It’s in a newspaper article, so it can’t be taken however we want.”

To my common sense, Evan responded without any particular change of tone.

“So, I ordered a camera.”

“…Uh?”

I looked at him for a moment in shock. In this world, the camera has not yet been invented using the principle of light but has been developed as a very tricky magical item.

It took over a year to build, and another year to get permission from the tower. Of course, it was extremely expensive, bulky, and the process of taking pictures and developing them was cumbersome.

So, all the newspapers had were a couple of themselves…

“Why? Doesn’t it take years to employ that?”

“We talked about five to six years after ordering.*

Evan was calm as if he had ordered a shirt.

“But, we’ll live together ten times more. It’s worth ordering.”

‘If it’s ten times, you mean sixty years…?’

I’ve been thinking for about six years, but I couldn’t say that.

“Yeah, well.”

The price of a single camera was enough money for me for the rest of my life, although I tried not to think about it like that.

‘It’s not my money, so don’t feel sorry for it, no matter how much money Evan spends, it won’t affect the property of this mansion even in the slightest.’

Evan changed the subject as he sighed with a bitter heart.

“Are you going to go see the foundation?”

“Yes, of course.”

The founding festival held in the Capital was held a week later. All the high-ranking nobles in the Capital had to attend. For me, who got married this year, it was my first official outing in the social world.

‘Anyway, the main character will be Princess Elani.’

A smirk leaked out from within.

Thanks to Princess Elanie wearing ruby accessories, I felt good thinking about Ruby’s price going up.

“The more attention Princess Elani receives, the more awesome it is. Ruby prices will soar as they are.’

In fact, after meeting Elani, I was even more convinced.

‘It is pretty. This is share.’

Even if she wore trash, her appearance would be a sensation, and even the background of being a Princess helped a lot.

‘And, Evan was totally insensitive to his pretty wife…’

I glanced at the expressionless Evan and secretly nodded.

‘Insensitive punk…’

I recalled that whenever he appeared in the work, Evan, who was an indifferent and cold husband, comments such as ‘I wish they divorce’ continued. Anyway, the founding days meant just that to me.

As I was thinking about it, Evan continued.

“And, again, grandaunt is coming tomorrow.”

“Really…?”

Olivia, like a wicked woman with a thorough understanding, rarely came to the Duke’s residence, though she seemed to celebrate Evan’s birthday.

“There will be a big party starting in the morning, so you’d better go to bed early. Hurry up and rest because you must be tired from the trip.”

Evan said so and quietly sat down at his desk and started reading.

‘A big party? After all, Evan is the only descendant of Icard, so of course, it would be right to open it up grandly.’

Before going to bed, I called Lisa and gave her some instructions, and after a long time, I slept well without even a dream in my bed at the Duke’s mansion.

* * *
Lisa had been crazy busy since morning.

“You can’t wear a red dress again this time!”

It was Evan’s birthday, so it was ok to listen to his opinion, yet Lisa committed the atrocity of kicking him out.

“There are so many colors that suit Miss Laria. How can you wear red every important day?”

“I thought that too. How about purple?”

Serena sneaked in and Lisa was almost furious and annoyed.

“I won’t listen to anything but Miss Laria’s opinion!”

I answered quickly.

“Expensive one. One with a lot of big jewelry. That’s my opinion.”

If the Duke of Icard’s mood was well-matched, he could have said, “It suits you, so buy one more.” The frugal should always be ready to accept the mercy of the rich.

So, in the end, I was able to wear a pale yellow dress studded with diamonds.

“Miss Laria, do you really have to carry that abominable fan? It’s too disturbing for Miss’ lovely image.”

Lisa spoke sadly when I took Olivia’s fan. Still, I shook my head as if I could never yield.

“The image of being loved is more important than being lovely. I will definitely take it with me to the founding festival.”

Evan couldn’t even see my face after being kicked out by Lisa. I couldn’t leave the room until just before the party, as Lisa put all her energy into decorating me.

“Have you talked to the orchestra and the choir?”

“Yes, I have already instructed you to start playing at the same time as Miss Laria’s entry.’

I applied for something like ‘anything that looks and sounds like a grand celebration song.’

Anyway, I was Evan’s wife, and I wanted to give him a really nice birthday present, who listens to me.

“I am not confident in doing anything with my hands…”

“If embroidering is a burden, why don’t you give a gift doing what you’re best at?”

I got my answer from a conversation with Marchioness Eldspi. I wasn’t confident in doing it with my hands. However, I was confident in doing it with my mouth.

What I was best at was flattery and exaggerating. So, I just had to roughly say something that wasn’t much. On top of that, a bonus gift from Abonitar was added.

“Well, let’s hurry and go.”

I hurried to Lisa, checking the time.

“Because I can’t be late.”

It was Icard’s only Young Lord’s birthday, and no matter how indifferent he was, it was natural to throw a great party in terms of formality.

Eventually, I boldly left the room with a gift for Evan.

I didn’t know that I would be devastated by the unexpected embarrassment shortly after.
