That Man’s 101st Bad Ending

I didn’t do anything-2

Coke-

Suddenly someone sneezes into his itchy nose.

The occasional sounds were nothing special.

It’s just a sneeze, isn’t this enough to be heard in everyday life?

Theresia, who had been listening to her brother’s spit, thought so too.

Although I felt a little bit uncomfortable.

“Are you worried about anything?”

“…no, don’t worry about it.”

“Don’t worry if you broke up last time. Maybe it’s because they don’t seem to have a problem with it either.”

“I know that too.”

– I’m going to break up the marriage. Miss Violet.

A voice I could never have imagined, never imagined that I would hear it with my own ears.

Aren’t you the man who always made me smile?

I can’t believe he was hiding such a dagger. I still get chills down my spine when I think of that time.

The smiling face was no longer there.

It seemed as if only the frozen cynicism and eyes remained, penetrating him and breaking through all his feelings.

I thought it would be nice to be a completely different person.

It was only for a moment, but at that moment I was overwhelmed by Robert.

Since when did it change?

The moment I heard the name of Millian Jeweler, I barely endured the fact that I almost collapsed.

Isn’t that what everyone knew from the start?

However, to be able to hold it in anyway, Theresia’s shoulders trembled as she remembered Robert’s eyes staring at her.

So I broke off the marriage. Didn’t he immediately return to that day, enclose the engagement ring and send it back, and immediately proceed with the divorce procedure?

I thought it would end with that.

It took me a while to talk about my brother, but it was probably a bluff.

No matter how Taylor, Violet was also from a prestigious aristocratic family.

Even if it wasn’t comparable, there was no way he would be poisoned.

It wasn’t even that there was an excuse to collapse from the inside, so what would happen if you used a stupid man at most.

‘…not stupid.’

I sigh and correct my thoughts. I thought I had been hit right.

To think that he would be acting like an idiot to himself even after knowing everything… Even thinking about it now, it gave me goosebumps.

The plan, which had been thoroughly formulated and thought to be working, collapsed in an instant.

The word breakup seemed like a word he brought up after fully interpreting his intentions.

Wasn’t it the breakup to tell Robert that day?

Although I came out as if I was running away, I was anxious all day that there might be a chase on the way home.

He was worried that when he returned, the house would already be ruined, but even after all this time, not even a trivial problem had arisen.

“You don’t make that weird face these days. He acted as if he was insecure.”

“…that’s what happened. A lot has happened lately.”

“Haha, we liked each other so much, but suddenly broke off the engagement. It could have been shocking because it was sudden.”

Coke-

Arthur let out a slightly thicker cough than before, and opened his mouth.

That cough is annoying.

Why are you coughing that you don’t normally do?

Theresia’s eyes narrowed for a moment, then she opened her mouth bluntly.

“Did you catch a cold? You keep coughing.”

“Hmm…it’s not like that, but my throat itches. not a big deal. You did that sometimes.”

“Take some medicine later. Don’t spit for nothing.”

“It’ll be better if you wake up with a sigh.”

In an instant, I bit my lip in the irritability that rose unbeknownst to me.

Hearing the sound of their teeth clashing, Theresia stared blankly into space in shock.

There was no reason to be annoyed, and I had no idea why I was suddenly feeling this way.

My expression reflected in the teacup I was holding was quite eerie.

It looked like she was pretty angry no matter who saw it, Theresia let out a small sigh and wiped her face.

Maybe it’s because of my pathetic brother’s actions.

I thought it was no big deal because I had always seen it, but seeing it often made me angry.

“Just keep quiet and take your medicine. Don’t bother me.”

After clearing his throat for a while, he answered, and seemed to calm down a little.

Anyway, it’s just a lie or a bluff.

Wouldn’t he also look stupid if he was swayed by such a thing?

Press your forehead once, and put chamomile tea in your mouth.

The moment I filled my mouth with the fragrant aroma of tea, it seemed like I was freed from all worries.

For a moment, Theresia closed her eyes and savored the scent of tea while watching her brother mumbling and pouring medicine into her mouth.

Doesn’t drinking just make you feel better? It’s just rain.

There was supposed to be a worry that kept coming up, but Theresia quickly erased it from her mind.

Instead, I thought of something else.

As much as he failed in trying to use Robert, wouldn’t it be better to assume that he might be found out like that elsewhere?

‘How the hell did he know?’

I thought it was done without anyone noticing.

When I bought something, I bought it under a completely different name, and when I was looking for a designer, I did not know who I was except for the designer.

Theresia’s eyes narrowed as she mentally lowered the score for Robert the designer.

Maybe I didn’t really know anything and got caught on some of them.

It would have been nice to think about it a little slower, but I was so shocked at the moment that I immediately accepted my guilt on the spot.

If he had responded shamelessly there, the result would have been a little different.

On the contrary, Roberta would have been taken aback if she had been so angry, saying that it was your fault.

Tsk.

Theresia, who was blaming her stupidity, clicked her tongue slightly.

It didn’t seem like a bad idea to contact him once.

If you send a letter saying that you have done something wrong, you will meet me face to face.

Theresia, who was writing the letter, smiled and corrected her pen.

If this works, what will you do then?

As much as he thought that Robert, who surprised him, was quite disgusting, he would think of revenge.

Even before that, I wrote a letter saying I love you and sent it to you, how would you think that you would humiliate yourself as soon as you met.

Even now, whenever I think of that sneering face, I naturally frown.

Originally, it should have been a relationship that he should have held on to and shaken by himself… but he became like this because he was shaken for a moment.

After a moderate apology and writing out a letter saying that she was moderately sorry, Theresia stretched herself.

Maybe we’ll get in touch soon.

However, it was already late at night, and Theresia went straight to bed, thinking that she could wake up tomorrow and send a letter.

It wasn’t that important, so that’s okay. Even if you forget, if you send it when you remember it, that’s it.

To Theresia, Robert was still a very tolerable being.

#

cool-

The sound of rough, rapid breathing echoes.

It was Arthur, Theresia’s older brother, with a pale complexion as if he would faint at any moment.

I stare at the sky with wide eyes, then close my eyes tightly and suppress the bursting cough.

I felt like I wanted to pull out my itchy lungs with my hands.

A leaky cough, regardless of one’s will, evoked many emotions in itself.

Who would have known that in just a few days, what I passed on thinking it was just a cold would become so big?

Every time I moved, a cough clawing at my throat erupted.

I wipe my mouth with a fishy taste.

Even without blood, I felt that my body had already been damaged to that extent.

The cold he knew was not such a serious illness.

It’s just a disease that disappears cleanly when you wake up after a night’s sleep.

That’s why I neglected to take the medicine, but this. No matter how consistently I took the medicine, it seemed that it was not a disease that could be cured.

cool-

My chest tightened from coughing so hard.

It had already been three days since he had lost his appetite and had been lying in bed helplessly.

How did this happen? However, what Arthur was most afraid of was whether this disease would ever get better.

“It’s German.”

Theresia, who kept wandering around beside her, murmured.

Of course, the sight of her chewing her innocent nails and teasing her feet looked quite uneasy.

Didn’t he bring in a doctor to find a poison after his condition got worse?

However, Arthur himself knew best that it was not poison.

Poison is something created to harm someone.

To his knowledge, at least, there was no poison that produced these cold-like symptoms.

“…I need to interrogate the attendants. The food you ate is suspicious.”

“Theresia, you know that can’t be.”

“You know what? Brother, what the hell do you know? No matter how you look at it, it’s poison. Why is a normal person suddenly sick…This is poison. Brother, someone sent an assassin to us. I hope it’s not going to Taylor. No, it must be him. Robert, he gave us an assassin-!”

Hmm- Theresia’s complexion turned pale as she swallowed her breath alone.

I seemed to know now.

I realized now that what I said to myself was not a lie.

Isn’t this situation so strange right now?

In summer, not winter, a cold that should have started with a cough…

It drove people to a point similar to that of a corpse.

At first, I thought it was just a bad cold.

If it wasn’t that, it would be better to wear a mask, and that was the only problem I thought about.

It was a vile trick concocted by the Taylors.

As Robert had warned, something had been done to my brother’s Arthur.

-I hope to see you next time. in a healthy way.

It was a tingle in my head, a sensation of electricity flowing through it.

Breathing stopped, and a shiver from the top of my head seemed to escape through my hands.

The heart cooled, and at the same time, the blank mind made the body flutter.

Unaware that her legs had lost strength and she had collapsed, Theresia began to organize the fragments of memories that were fitting together in her head.

The reason why my brother was sick, it was clear that Robert had done it.

Arthur couldn’t be sick without it.

At least the cold got so bad? No, it can’t be.

Theresa had ruled out many possibilities from the beginning.

Taking Robert’s words as a warning, the mind filled with those thoughts naturally becomes clouded.

It can’t be a sober judgment.

If she had thought about it a little more slowly, she would have known that there was no possibility, but Theresia had already assumed that Robert was the cause of everything.

“Ned, call all the attendants right now and ask them. Just in case someone put something strange in the food.”

“Well, actually, the interrogation has already been completed.”

The old man, called Ned, lowered his head and replied.

Naturally, I asked all the attendants, but no one was capable of doing such a suspicious thing.

Besides, since they don’t carelessly use things brought in from outside, there’s no way that poison or something like that gets into the food.

However, it was impossible to ignore Theresia’s wide-eyed spirit, so Ned cautiously opened his mouth.

“No one did anything suspicious. At least, I don’t think anyone would do such a thing in this mansion…”

“Then, is the reason your brother is lying down like that, is he really just sick with a cold?”

“Didn’t you call the doctor? If the doctor treats you soon, you will take medicine and get better. The priest has also been called for emergencies, so don’t you feel relieved for now?”

After hearing Ned’s words, Theresia finally felt her blurred vision return.

Yes, there is no need to think so urgently right now.

If you move too quickly, the Taylors may put more pressure on you…

Theresia’s eyes narrowed as she looked around at the sudden thought.

Maybe someone is monitoring this situation.

It felt like the blood in my head was circulating.

Ping, and with her eyes looking back, Theresia only then realized that she had collapsed on the floor.

“…Okay, then I’ll have to wait a while. Until that proud doctor comes along.”

“Yes, I’ll call the doctor when he comes. Take a break.”

Tak, the door closes.

Theresia’s body, left alone on the other side, began to crumble toward the ground again.

I didn’t even want to wake up anymore.

Because the only thing that filled my head was about this situation.

Maybe the Taylor family didn’t move.

It would be premature to make a judgment right now.

Theresia, who calmly grasped the situation, wiped her forehead.

If it’s really cold, it should be better with medicine. If that’s the case, it’s just a coincidence.

‘Is it really so?’

I was terrified. If this is a disease that even doctors can’t cure…

Doesn’t that mean that the Taylors played tricks on my brother?

Theresia’s hand gripping her chest trembled as her breathing accelerated.

With a pale face, Theresia gazed into the air with trembling eyes.

Nothing should have happened. This was such a bad cold that it should have been completely cured after a few nights of sleep.

If that doesn’t happen, then all of this means that it’s karma for the greed you have.

“It will be fine.”

So it came back. To erase Robert’s voice that resonated like an echo in my ears.

In order not to forget the hope that is still weak.

Theresia muttered like that for a long time.
