Trapped Married By Young Master - Chapter 93
“No way, Uncle must have seen it wrong right? How could Sis Luci sleep with a man in her flat? Moreover, I just asked her to forget about Brother Daniel yesterday.” Hans shook his head as if he didn’t want to believe any of this.
His approach strategy for Spider and Luci could fail miserably if it turns out that Luci is already dating first. Hans cursed his weak state that he couldn’t spy on Luci properly.
“Didn’t Uncle see it wrong?” Hans forced an odd smile that he had. It was as if he was a general who was given a clown costume to entertain the high-ranking royals who requested him.
Tedy quickly realized that. “I’m sure I didn’t see it wrong. I even saw Luci almost get up to prevent me from leaving. But I was too shocked at that time so I rushed out. So what? Is there any problem?”
Hans had never been so worried about Luci’s romance, Tedy knew that well. The only thing that Hans was worried about all this time was his stepmother’s harassment of Luci by using Hans as bait.
‘Telling Uncle Tedy wasn’t such a bad idea. But I have promised Uncle Whipped to keep this agreement confidential. Besides that, I am a responsible adult. I have to fulfill my promise like an adult.’ Even though Hans still likes to read fairy tales. Although his pose can beat Evan in studying company documents.
“I’m not sure. I mean it’s – it’s too soon. I’m afraid that Sis Luci will make the wrong choice or just choose. Ehh, do you know what the characteristics of that man are? I mean is he stocky and tall?” Hans looked carefully.
His black eyes gleamed when exposed to the reflection of the sunlight from outside. It’s a miracle that the tears that always suffer are now starting to be filled with happiness and hope. This made Tedy a little curious.
‘Is Hans hiding something?’ thought Tedy.
“I’m not sure,” Tedy replied, copying what Hans had said a few seconds ago. “I can’t see it clearly because of Lu’s position – uh, Lu’s position…” Tedy stopped talking. He couldn’t possibly say squash and stuff because that would sound vulgar to a twelve-year-old.
“Her position somewhat shades the guy. Yeah right, so I can’t see much. But he was wearing a shirt at the time.” Teddy continued. Let’s hope it’s not too vulgar for a small child. Tedy glanced at Hans to see if the boy seemed to be thinking something strange or not. But thankfully Hans’ face was normal, Tedy was relieved by that.
“Is he wearing a coat? Is the coat brown and big? Like – like.” Hans turned his face to several angles. After finding Spider’s coat, he stopped looking. His tiny hand then pointed majestically at Spider’s coat.
“Is the coat like that?” continued Hans again. Every time Tedy would open his mouth, Hans’ little mouth would also open as if he was giving his uncle a prompt to speak faster.
“Does not seem. No coat at all. And, hmm.” Tedy scratched his face and studied Spider’s oversized coat.
‘I think I’ve seen a coat like this. But where is it?’ Tedy forgot he had seen the coat when he met Spider at Luci’s flat. At that time, Spider confronted Tedy by accusing him of having a special relationship with Luci.
“This coat is too wide for last night man. He’s a bit skinny. And the man in this coat must be a bit fat, right? Hmm.” Tedy scratched him again.
“Not fat, Uncle. But stocky, muscular, and manly.” Hans corrected Tedy’s opinion. Tedy also raised an eyebrow oddly.

Just a few minutes ago Tedy came out of Hans’ room. He went out to buy some fruit for Hans and Ammy too.
But the door burst open. Hans thought it was Tedy who had forgotten something in the hospital room where Hans was being treated. Even Hans had prepared a joke and a subtle joke for Tedy.
‘Uncle Tedy is senile like Dory (a type of fish from the animated film series Finding Nemo. Fish Dory has a short-term memory and is often called forgetful.)’ That was what Hans wanted to say until finally his tongue went numb and couldn’t say anything else.
“Good afternoon, my stepson.” The one who came turned out to be Aunt Arum.
Hans, who was usually sharp and strong, now looked so fragile and helpless. He has lost his biological mother since he was a child. When he has a good stepmother, his world, which had been lost because he missed his mother, begins to bloom and grow again.
The happiness lasted for a very short time when Hans enjoyed his affection and company with Aunt Arum. Even on several occasions, Hans gave Aunt Arum greater love than his father.
Life is short, and people change faster. That’s what has happened now.
‘A mother I loved so much has now turned into a monster.’
Aunt Arum wore a warm winter suit. Though there is no snow in the city. But she never forgets to wear a warm sweater around the neck and a knitted shirt.
Aunt Arum is a beautiful woman who will beat any fashion trend. She doesn’t need to follow trends at all. She will always look beautiful and fresh with her style.
Her beauty is what she passed down to Daniel. Even though a year has passed and even though she has smoked and drank a lot of alcohol, her beauty has not disappeared. Although the beauty was starting to be scratched by the ash smoke.
“You live well here. Even that murderer has transferred you to an elite room like this,” mocked Aunt Arum while going around the room and examining the knick-knacks and every corner of Hans’ room at that time.
“I asked you to join me so we can destroy her (Luci) but you still refuse.” Aunt Arum grabbed a flower vase and looked at the vase with a squeak.
Her big, round eyes showed a vengeance that could not be measured in strength. No wonder, her only child has died, it’s the same as her life expectancy.
Aunt Arum always said, “This is not me. I was dead when my son died. I am currently living as the spirit of a mother seeking revenge for the death of her child.”
“Is it because of all these facilities you are siding with her? And are you sure the work done by the killer is legal?” continued Aunt Arum. Her eyes found Spider’s coat. Slowly she fingered the expensive of it.
Aunt Arum should know about The Crown because she has fallen into the world of gambling since a year ago. However, the symbol was covered by a fold of cloth, and she did not reveal the fold.
“She has sold her body,” whispered Aunt Arum again. All these bad words she aimed at persuading Hans so that he would help her to destroy Luci. But all this time he always refused.
“What do you want, Auntie?” Hans understood Luci’s work very well. She must disguise herself as a third person to thwart an arranged marriage or end a relationship between two people. And Hans was sure Luci never crossed the line.
“You still call me Auntie, it means you haven’t given up on protecting the killer. It’s almost the end of the month, and I will keep coming to haunt her.
“I just wanted to say that I will prepare a bomb to detonate that killer. But I’ll make sure she dies slowly. You’d better stop protecting her quickly because if my patience runs out with you, then you could become my next victim.” Aunt Arum also dropped the vase on purpose. It fell and broke horribly, as scary as her face today.
