Chapter 66.1

‘Now I think he really believes I like him…’

Nadia was frustrated, she could only laugh and couldn’t bring herself to say anything, even if she was frustrated.

Nadia was also very sorry to have deceived Glenn for months.

But she couldn’t help it.

If Nadia had told the truth right after the wedding, Glenn’s impression of her would have been negative.

It was thanks to the trust that Glenn would never misunderstand her as a spy, and now she could now consider whether to confess or not.

“Sigh…”

Nadia sighed and touched her forehead.

“Where should I start?”

First of all, Nadia had to explain how she had to run away from the Balazit household.

And it was necessary to convince him why she decided to help Winterfell, her father’s enemy.

‘I can’t reveal anything about regression. I would rather be treated like a psychopath.’

If Nadia wanted to explain her hatred for her only parent while hiding that she had returned to the past, she should add an appropriate adjustment.

Nadia, who was devising some scenarios in her head, finally decided.

“Let’s just be honest and ask for understanding.”

If she kept avoiding risky situations like today, one day she would end in an inevitable one.

Rather, it would have been better to take this opportunity to make sure this matter was settled.

If Glenn got angry that she fooled him…

‘You have to think of the credit you have made so far, Nadia. How much have you done to this family so far?’

It was true that Nadia lied to Glenn, but as the result, Winterfell was revived thanks to her.

In other words, if anyone would be benefited, it was Glenn and he had not lost anything.

If he could consider it, he wouldn’t get too angry, right?

Wasn’t this supposed to be mutually beneficial? A couple of years as a fake wife wouldn’t do much damage to her life either.

At last Nadia, who had finished planning, rose from her seat.

‘All right. Let’s take this opportunity to come clean.’

Nadia didn’t run to Glenn to tell the truth straight away.

Of course it was the same with Glenn. He needed time to think about where to start explaining to Nadia.

So the next morning.

Nadia looked out the window changing her indoor clothes.

“Today’s weather is nice, too.”

“Right? The sky is really blue.”

It meant that the weather was suitable for a long conversation while taking a walk.

After dressing up, she headed to the main house to meet Glenn.

However, when she passed the passage connecting to main house,

“Oh?”

A familiar face was walking from across the passage. It happened to be Glenn, the person she was looking for.

He looked a little surprised over there, too. Nadia ran to him and asked.

“Fancy running into you here. Were you on your way to the main house?”

“Yes, I was on my way to see you.”

“Oh, you are? I was on my way to see you, too.”

“Me?”

‘She was on my way to see me….’

Glenn’s heart beat strangely even though it was a very casual sentence.

Even if she said she was looking for him, it was probably about the estate’s matter.

Nadia continued with a calm face, as if she knew what was going on inside his head.

“I have something to tell you. Shall we walk for a while? It’s not a simple matter.”

“Sure. My business is not short either.”

What could possibly she want to talk about while taking a walk, not in the office?

Glenn stepped into the garden wondering as Nadia sat next to him.

Colorful flowers were in full bloom in the garden located between the main house and the inner house. It was thanks to the warm weather.

Glenn said.

“There are a lot of flowers.”

“That’s right. I guess it’s hot in the north when summer comes as well.”

“It’s getting cold again soon, so you should enjoy it now.”

Then Glenn suddenly realized.

It  was the first time they had a conversation while enjoying this beautiful scenery.

‘I was too unattentive….’

There had been a lot of things going on, but there must have been time for the two of them to take a walk together.

Nadia was the one who came all the way to the north. Therefore, he should have paid more attention to her.

When he was pondering over his past deeds and regretting them, Nadia opened her mouth and started the conversation.

“Time flies so fast. I feel like we got married a few days ago, but it’s already been months….”

“Come to think of it, that’s already last year.”

“…Do you remember last year’s triumphal ceremony?”

“I can’t forget it.”
