When I Announced A Divorce, The Obsessive Maniac Went Crazy

“Can you testify to that?”

Showing Jacob to Eilish was a good choice.

Eilish would tell the whole truth to save Jacob’s life.

“Testify?”

“Yes. I’m going to put the Empress on trial, and I need you to testify on the spot.”

Eilish’s eyes were gleaming as she caught me.

It seemed that he had already been poisoned to the bone.

Her eyes are weak.

Eilish let out a mad laugh.

“You want me to throw my life away?”

“If that’s what it takes to save Jacob, don’t you think you should do it?”

Because it’s love.

“You just have to tell them what you’ve told me.”

It was the most effective way to use Eilish’s testimony.

The Empress must have already noticed that Eilish had disappeared.

Because she didn’t lower her watchful eye towards Eilish.

“Anyway, the Empress must be thinking of killing you. You disappeared without a word.”

“It’s all because of you! What did I do wrong! I mean, I was just doing what I was told! I don’t want to die, I don’t want to die!”

“But you can’t live like that forever, princess. Are you going to just hide? You said you like Jacob.”

Eilish snorted.

Now she started crying like a child. Transparent tears were dripping down.

I comforted Eilish, who was struggling and crying.

“I’ll let you do it. I’ll let you go with Jacob. We’ll find a place where the Empress can no longer bother you, princess. I will help you two live happily ever after.”

“Really?”

Eilish said with red eyes.

“The Empress has killed too many people. It’s to help catch such criminals, and of course Your Majesty the Emperor will consider it. He will forgive the princess for her sins and allow you to leave. I’ll help you with that. And Duke Burstoad will help too.”

“Really?”

“Yes, Princess.”

Actually it’s bullshit.

I don’t know what the Emperor will do, and it’s not something I’ve discussed with Cesare.

But in the original, Cesare made a similar choice to mine.

He didn’t let her run away with Jacob, but he did accept the testimony on condition that he spared Eilish’s life.

I’ll put Jacob on it too, this is it.

How tempting is that?

Of course, Jacob had also sinned, so it was self-evident that even if the two were released alive, they wouldn’t be able to take anything with them.

Still, it would be better for them to be kicked out as an idiot than to be imprisoned as a criminal.

And Eilish seemed perfectly certain about her love.

Jacob…

I glanced at Shannet.

If Jacob has sense, he would know what I’m talking about now.

In fact, Jacob was almost dead.

If neither me nor the Burstoad can help.

There was a reason why I had to say these words in front of Jacob.

Even if Jacob didn’t love Eilish, now he had to help persuade her, begging Eilish that he loved her.

I glanced at Shannet, and she released what was in Jacob’s mouth.

“Jacob. Do you have something to say?”

Say it. Before I shut him up again.

I could see Jacob’s throat.

Whether he was nervous or scared, he was trembling.

Jacob knelt before Eilish.

“I’m sorry, Eilish…!”

Jacob burst into tears.

“I didn’t mean to make you like this… Hic… What the hell is going on here. I made eye contact with Shannet.

Shannet sighed and shook her head.

Did you even fall in love in this situation?

Jacob seemed very impressed with Eilish’s love.

“Ja-Jacob…”

Eilish hugged Jacob.

“Eilish… I was wrong. I will do really well in the future. I really…”

What do you say next?

After a long moment, Eilish looked up.

“I will do what you tell me. Instead, let me and Jacob go safely.”

“Okay.”

As long as the outcome is good, the process doesn’t matter.

It didn’t matter what Jacob and Eilish did because I succeeded in bringing Eilish to court.

I whispered to Shannet.

“I don’t know what they’re going to do, so I want them in different rooms, and I want you to keep a close eye on them. Make sure they feel like they’re being treated well.”

“Yes, madam!”

Shannet nodded her head bravely.

I gladly passed on this good news to Cesare.

I thought Cesare would be happy too.

In fact, if Eilish could testify, it would suffice to collect other evidence.

Count Peliard and his wife were weak, and any misstep could backfire on us.

Eilish was definitely the perfect fit here.

In addition, Eilish was also a royal daughter and Crown Princess.

Hearing that he was a scoundrel, she seemed to know Prince Franz well too.

So no matter what Eilish had to say in court, I wasn’t going to stop her.

That madness seemed a little more sincere.

Of course, since Eilish is addicted, she can claim that she is mentally and physically weak… Still, as this was a case related to the assassination of the Crown Prince, the testimony would be accepted.

And until the day she testify, I’m going to let the medicine go away to some extent.

All we need to do is corroborate Ailish’s testimony and get a list of the Empress’s doctor’s medicines.

The Imperial Palace’s doctor will confirm that the Crown Prince is allergic… This was a won fight.

But in all these circumstances, Cesare didn’t look very happy.

“Cesare, aren’t you happy?”

“… I don’t know about Princess Eilish, but Jacob is the one who helped kill Daphne’s mother. It’s related in some way. Are you still okay? Can I release that man?”

“Ah….”

Because of it?

“What about Cesare? How about Cesare?”

Rather, Cesare, who lost both the Duke and Duchess at the same time, should hate it more.

He could have scolded me for my reckless decision for letting Jacob go.

It was true that I hadn’t even thought of that until now.

In fact, even if Jacob was involved in the killing of Daphne’s mother…

I’m sorry for the original Daphne, but it’s not my business, but it is not my business.

Because she wasn’t my mother.

I was focused on uncovering the secrets of Daphne’s mother’s death and seeing that Count Peliard and the Empress were punished accordingly.

Rather, it is the part that Cesare should pay more attention to.

“I’m okay. I don’t care what happens to Jacob. Anyway, he’s outlived his usefulness anyway, it’s none of my business if he lives or dies, my parents will be happy that I caught him by the tail.”

“I’m fine, Cesare.”

Cesare had an unexpectedly attentive side.

“As long as Jacob and Princess Eilish are released and the Empress, Count Peliard and Marquis Gallard are punished, everything will be fine.”

“… It won’t happen again, Daphne. You and the people you are related to wouldn’t get caught up in something like this.”

Cesare said confidently.

I have chosen a man who is really reliable.

No, I did well with the possession.

I was so lost at first.

I was desperate to escape from Gabriel and Cesare to survive.

However, after I got to know about Cesare and became a real couple with him, I thought that I was lucky to become Daphne.

It is because she has such a reliable husband.

That was an unmistakable declaration that he would protect me.

“I believe you, Cesare. You’ll never put me in danger or make me suffer.”

“I promise.”

Cesare nodded and kissed my lips briefly.

The lips that had touched and pressed sensuously against my face.

It wasn’t a sign of sexual love, it was just warm and friendly, as if to comfort me.

Cesare was a man with an onion-like charm the more you got to know him.

That made me feel excited.

A wife is excited about her husband.

This is the stuff of novels.

I wish we could live like newlyweds forever!

*****

With Lee Jong-woo’s help, Gabriel began to move forward.

Unlike standing still and chasing after Daphne, he began to put more effort into his own situation.

The authenticity of Daphne’s Revelation was known from the work of the Count of Madrina described in Revelation.

And with the help of Lee Jong-woo.

Lee Jong-woo, strangely, knew how to solve the problem.

A simpler way than pursuing a new road project.

He had found a new path, not the Empress’s path.

I don’t know how Lee Jong-woo knew that there was an abandoned tunnel under the mountain.

Thanks to this, it was possible to free the Count of Madrina from the pressure of the Empress.
