The Current Lady
Each of them eat in silence
Zaxerius
Is the food to your liking?
LunaMiria
The food matches my taste.
It tastes very good
Zaxerius
Then they do their job well
Zaxerius
Should the taste is not to your liking, be sure to tell me
Zaxerius
I shall change the cook at once
LunaMiria
Oh no, there's no need to
LunaMiria
The chief is a great cook
Zaxerius
That's good to know
LunaMiria
I wish to attend tomorrow's party
Zaxerius
The one Lady Rubella attend to?
LunaMiria
Yes, I wish to attend that party
Zaxerius
...Usually, you don't wish to attend those parties as it causes you discomfort
Zaxerius
Is there any particular reason as to why you want to attend?
LunaMiria
I believe that the wife of an Arch Duke should make an appearance sometimes
Zaxerius
If that is the case, you don't need to worry about it
Zaxerius
No one would dare to judge the wife of an Arch Duke
Zaxerius
So you don't need to worry
LunaMiria
I also wish to clear up some untruth rumors
LunaMiria
That Lady Rubella and your Grace are both in love and that I get in the way of your love
Zaxerius
....What do you wish for people to see?
LunaMiria
Merely the fact that you are not in love with Lady Rubella
LunaMiria
And that she should not take the chance to gain people's support from it
LunaMiria
I've heard she's taking advantages of those things
Zaxerius
I will accompany you tomorrow
LunaMiria
Are you able to?
Zaxerius
I can finish important matters at morning
Zax noticed immediately his wife's discomfort. He put down his fork and knife
Zaxerius
Everyone leave at once
The servants were surprised but nonetheless they all scurried away at their master's order
Luna looked at him confused
LunaMiria
Is there something wrong?
Zaxerius
Do you wish for me not to go?
LunaMiria
No.. that's not it..
Zaxerius
Then why do you look so unhappy?
Zaxerius
Your complexion changes once I offer my aid
LunaMiria
I did not mean it..
Zaxerius
I am no fool, Luna
Zaxerius
I recognize when I see someone's face
Zaxerius
And surely you're not happy with my company
Zaxerius
Then what is it, Luna?
Zaxerius
Please do tell me
Zaxerius
Because I cannot possibly know if you do not speak what is in your mind
LunaMiria
I merely wish you to not be the main topic of discomfort truth..
Zaxerius
About my wife who has a scar on her face?
The silence filled the air. Zax sighed. Even though he already told her many times that he doesn't care about such rumors, she still takes it up to her heart
Zaxerius
I believe I already have told you about this many times
Zaxerius
I do not mind about your scar at all. So I wish you would not mind it either
LunaMiria
..Even until now, I do not think I am of qualified partner for you..
LunaMiria
There's plenty of beautiful ladies out there. So I do not understand why you would choose someone as miserable as me to be your wife
Zaxerius
Please stop thinking about yourself like that..
Zaxerius
I love you not because of your appearance-
LunaMiria
Because I have been your wife since before all of this
LunaMiria
Zax.. What happened in the past was not your fault
LunaMiria
It was my own choice
LunaMiria
And you don't need to feel guilty about it nor do you have to feel responsible of me
LunaMiria
The current me is not someone who stubborn and not listen to what other people say
LunaMiria
I am now perfectly capable of choosing what is good for my own good and others
LunaMiria
So if you wish to end our relationship at this once, I understand very well and I shall not have complaint at all
LunaMiria
Then please excuse myself for I wish to rest
LunaMiria
Your Grace also, please take care of your body
LunaMiria
Too many workload can affect your health and I do not wish for that
The lady left, leaving the speechless husband alone in his seat
