Hello everyone, sorry I just updated again. This chapter is still with the drama of Louzen being underestimated. Yeah, it's not time for him to show the strength and power that supports him behind the scenes. That might take some time. But I hope you guys enjoy it.
Before saying a few words, Louzen was silent and looked at all the guests. There was no particular expression. He only showed a calmness that seemed unfazed despite the scornful, dismissive gaze that could intimidate. Louzen stood in front of the microphone placed in front of him. After exhaling for a few moments, he began to speak. "Good evening to the guests of the Kennedy family and the honored families who have been invited to attend the Kennedy family's monthly banquet to commemorate the death of Senior Grandfather George Kennedy. I am not anyone here, but the nuclear family is so kind as to give me a place to speak to the guests. I do not want to speak at length. I want to say that I am grateful to be part of this family. I am especially grateful to my late grandfather George who was so kind to accept me as I am. Without him, I would be nothing here. Therefore, I would like to offer my best wishes at tonight's program for grandpa to enjoy a comfortable life in heaven. That's al
The two middle-aged men with important status in the distribution of inheritance rights waited for Louzen's reaction to hearing the hidden truth about himself for years. But the reality was not what they thought it would be. Despite knowing the facts about himself from others, Louzen was not the least bit surprised. And that surprised the middle-aged men in the room. "Your Majesty, you are not surprised in the slightest. It seems like you knew about your true identity beforehand." "Hn. I already know my identity. I did not have any memories of my mother and me as a child being expelled from Dukedom to a life of abandonment after her death. But some time ago, someone told me about this." "Who is that person, Your Majesty? As far as I know, only a few people know about this incident." "I don't know. I don't remember." X himself did not know where Louzen knew about his identity. When Jacob told him about Louzen's identity, his position at that time must have known about him. "We
Louzen looked at the figure sitting uneasily next to him. He looked at the fierce face that seemed to hold a lot of burdens there. Especially after the settlement of the inheritance rights that made her duty even more. He honestly felt sorry; it was just that there was nothing he could do but support and continue to be by her side. Even though he has duties that he must carry out, it's just that what's wrong with protecting a woman who is valuable to his life? He didn't want his previous stupidity to repeat itself and make him lose a helpful figure. Not long after, the car they were driving arrived at a magnificent house, Louzen's in-laws' house, which was indeed in the same city as the nuclear family, which made him have to stop by for a while. Moreover, it had been several days since he had come home, so he had no other reason to go, especially when he saw Lidya's pleading look. He felt terrible if he had to leave again, even after what Lidya got tonight. "Are you leaving again,
"Is this enough?" Lidya looked at the table that was already filled with some food in front of her; she glanced over, wondering if what she had prepared was not excessive, especially seeing Louzen's reaction and remembering Louzen's attitude lately."Ah! If he doesn't like it, I can change it later."There is nothing wrong with welcoming a husband who has not come home for days, right? Moreover, Louzen had treated Lidya well at the last banquet.Lidya wanted to thank him back then, but the place and situation didn't allow her to do so. So now was a good time to do so."But wait! Won't those candles ruin the atmosphere?" She stared at the two candles in what seemed to be a somewhat exaggerated place provided by the servant who helped her earlier."This seems like overkill." She called out to the maid, asking her to remove the candles and replace them with candles with simple holders.Once everything was ready, Lidya smiled with satisfaction. "Not too bad." She murmured.And now it was
"What's wrong?" Asked the man, who noticed Lidya's gaze at him. Lidya shook her head lightly. "Thank you...." There were no words she could say at the moment, only that word that could probably represent all the feelings she had received earlier. "For?" Asked Louzen confusedly. "For last night, you saved me." "I guess not because I arrived late, and you got this for it." Louzen's hand reached out to touch the cheek that still looked red there. "I'm sorry...." "No, it's not a problem. I was thinking. Maybe I would have gotten more than this if you hadn't come on time." Louzen certainly noticed that. He knew how Lidya's uncle was. That man who did not know himself and kept intimidating Lidya was rotten. He did not expect that man to treat Lidya like that in front of the guests. "I promise I won't let anyone hurt you again from now on." The words came out of Louzen's mouth, which made Lidya blush and try to hide her face from the man in front of her. "I don't need that. I can tak
"Are you ready?" Lidya came in as Louzen had just finished putting on his white shirt. He turned his body to face her.The woman who had been busy all morning woke him up and asked him to get ready while he had been busy with his activities. Louzen was even entirely confused by Lidya's behavior this morning."Do you think this is enough?"Lidya looked at Louzen from head to toe, then nodded. "There's nothing wrong. The clothes suit you." Lidya walked over and grabbed Louzen's wrist. "You should roll up your sleeves." Lidya helped Louzen roll up the sleeves of his long shirt. Then she smoothed the collar before finally smiling with satisfaction."That's better."Louzen did not reply. He just nodded and followed Lidya's advice before she finally asked him to leave."I feel like this is too formal.""No, we're not going to a formal event, and that outfit suits you perfectly," Lidya said, leading Louzen to the car prepared by the driver."Tell me, where are we going?" Asked Louzen again
Louzen chuckled softly, looking at each of the people there. "You can call me trash, you can even say I'm a parasite. That doesn't matter to me, because I'm better than you, who always thinks you're above everything. Even wishing for someone who was never interested in you. Sunggu, I feel sorry for you. You come from a wealthy family, but what you're doing shows how low your self-esteem is!""You!""Why? Is there a problem? I assume what you're doing is just an obsession. An obsession that you received from your bad company. You've even forgotten to maintain the good name of your own family. Stepping on it with your ridiculous behavior-"BUGHHH!!A punch landed on Louzen's face without him being able to block it, he clenched his fists to reduce his anger. How ridiculous, when was the last time he was treated like this.He wanted to retaliate but he tried his best to contain his anger."You! Watch your filthy mouth! You don't deserve to say that at all. Look in the mirror, and see how
"Sorry for making a mess of your meal." Emily felt terrible for what had happened to Lidya and Louzen. Although, in reality, she felt awful for the man."No problem, we can find another place to eat." Replied Louzen, who did not mind that. It was only natural that the restaurant would eventually close due to the chaos caused by the commotion."That's right, especially since it wasn't your fault. So stop apologizing." Lidya replied with a slightly frowned face. She did not like Emily's company and felt uncomfortable seeing Emily's gaze on Louzen."Instead, what if I show you a place to eat that is no less delicious? It happens that both Louzen and I have been there before."Louzen frowned, then nodded uncertainly. "No problem."Louzen's answer certainly made Lidya wonder, had they ever gone together? And when did that happen?She felt there were many things she did not know about her husband. And somehow, learning about it made her feel upset.Because Louzen had agreed to it, Lidya cou
