Duchess Meklen's Elegant Revolt
Chapter 5
Ernest’s eyes shook a little for the first time , when he heard Eleanor’s request.
His face , with his head tilted at an angle , contained a look of absurdity.
In the meantime, Eleanor, determined, continued telling her request.
“Any seat is fine. I don’t care if it’s a small one . When I get into the branch , I’ll do my best to make sure I don’t become a hassle to the Duke.”
It was originally meant to be discussed at a dinner with Ernest , two days ago.
At that time, Carolyn stopped her from attending , so she had to turn around.
“If you’re in trouble , you can send me anywhere you’re comfortable with . I can be useful. I will do my best wherever you put me. ……Just one , Give me one chance.”
She needed the permission of the Duke of Mecklen to leave the house . So Eleanor abandoned all her pride and asked for it with eagerness.
It would’ve been an unimaginable scene , if this was the past .
But now , not only did she set aside her pride , but her face showed how desperate she was.
Ernest, however, did not seem to like Eleanor’s words.
A word fell from his twisted lips.
“How arrogant.”
“……..!”
Eleanor’s face turned pale.
When I looked up, I saw Ernest’s face , angry for some reason.
He came a step closer.
“I thought you were shallow.”
Embarrassed, Eleanor stepped back.
However, as Eleanor withdrew, Ernest again , narrowed the distance.
Close enough to touch each other’s faces, Eleanor groaned involuntarily.
The pressure from his hard body suffocated her.
Ernest’s blue eyes lit like a blue flame.
“The type I hate the most.”
“……………..”
“Running around without knowing your place.”
Ernest’s words stabbed Eleanor in the chest.
“At best, you’re just a person from a fallen kingdom.”
“…….!”
“The princess’s worth of marriage has already ended. You just have to sit in your place and be faithful to the role of a lady who can save face , as you are told.”
Ernest hated people who crossed the line. It was more so if they went around ruining the standards you’ve set.
“So don’t be loud and stay put.”
A scene suddenly flashed in Eleanor’s mind.
The ladies , holding fans, laughed and mocked her calling her a parrot on the island of Beimach.
My hands were shaking, but I couldn’t say anything.
Ernest, with a face completely uninterested in Eleanor , who had been struck by his words , straightened his body and pointed to the door with his chin.
It meant to get out.
“……I’ll be going then.”
She turned away slowly, with a pale face .
Eleanor, who barely came out of the study holding herself back from falling down, headed straight to her room.
Perfect insult.
The Duke of Mecklen was asking her to be a parrot.
‘The Duke is like Caroline,after all.’
I didn’t imagine it was to this extent before returning . I knew he was indifferent, but at least he never ignored me outright . I was treated as a duchess in front of the employees to a certain extent .
But it was all done to fulfill his role as husband.
Eleanor bit her lips hard.
I need to create an opportunity to go out.
All the authority of the family belonged to Ernest. The most ideal and reasonable way Eleanor thought of was to be sent to the top branch in the outskirts in the name of supervising or helping.
I considered the risk of getting a serious disease or damaging the dignity of the Mecklen dukedom , which the duke would not tolerate, but there were many variables in the process.
As soon as she entered the room, Eleanor threw herself on the bed.
She remained motionless for a long time, burying her face in the fluffy bed.
Hot heat boiled in her heart.
“You have to hang in there.”
I made up my mind by memorizing it like a spell.
This level of insult has been experienced countless times. So it’s okay.
However, anxiety was inevitable.
“Is it really okay like this?”
I am all alone .
None of the aristocrats from Hartmann Kingdom who settled in the Baden empire came to find her. She had to find her way all by herself.
Where should I build my foundation?
There is nothing I could do in the social world because Carolyn would surely act first . That’s why, it was impossible to invest anywhere in the capital .
When she married the Duke of Mecklen, all she had were gold coins , jewelry and clothes she had used in Hartmann.
The expensive jewels were saved just in case, as it was not the time to dispose of them .
I’m at a loss.
Eleanor held back her tears while trembling in anxiety.
She said he would hold back and endure until the right time came, then she would end this misery and start a new life, but Ernest’s words kept digging into her chest and poking her like thorns.
“…ah.”
Eleanor raised her head , buried in the sheets .
It was because her lips felt sour and prickly.

I must’ve bitten it too hard.
She rubbed it carefully with a handkerchief and pressed her lips hard to stop the bleeding.+
It hurt a lot.
A whole lot.
