Chapter 50
Chapter 50
After saying it out, the last scene of his deceased mother came to mind. He frowned without realizing it.
It wasn’t because he didn’t like Idina, who was an omega.
“I’ve been interested in you since the first time I saw you.”
“Me?”
Killian nodded.
“Yes, Lilles… I know what kind of guy he is. He’s been rude since he was little.”
Although they were friends who grew apart at some point, the time they spent together wasn’t just a day or two. Lilles wasn’t a good person since he was little.
Sometimes he would steal things from the royal family, but he thought that Killian didn’t know. He became bolder and then he warned him to stop.
Although he grew physical, his mental age remained the same. On the contrary, he became even more delinquent, and in Killian’s eyes, he was d*sgusting.
However, until his mother passed away, he was able to somehow tolerate that guy. Even if Lilles got into big trouble, his father would handle it pretty well, so he didn’t really have to worry about it.
But that didn’t happen after his mother passed away.
Even if it wasn’t in front of Idina, Lilles would show his status . He even acted as if he was proud of being an Alpha.
Maybe he though that he was considerably superior to Omegas or Betas. Since he was born between two Alphas, he said a lot of things that were quite unpleasant to hear. Especially when his mother was an Omega.
However, he didn’t hesitate to say the same thing to Idina, his fiancée.
<What? You’re saying no? You want to deny it? You’re going to marry me and have my child anyway. You’re going to come to Lilles and carry an Alpha child in this small belly. Isn’t that the reason you exist?>
Idina got angry and shouted that she was going to get a divorce. Meanwhile, Killian, who was listening from the side, was very angry.
His words sounded like insults to Killian and his mother.
If Lilles and Idina got married, she would definitely live like his mother. Her children would also know about their mother’s misfortune and feel heartbroken.
So Lilles’ words were no different from saying that he would create a child who would be hurt just like Killian.
He couldn’t let that happen right in front of him.
Of course, it wasn’t that Killian had such great justice that he thought he should save all those people in such situations.
Seeing Idina being insulted by Lilles, he didn’t want to leave her in that situation.
Idina was cute and bright.
She had pretty eyes. When she smiled, her eyes would definitely sparkle like starlight falling from them.
However, if she married Lilles, all the good energy surrounding her would fade away.
She was a girl who didn’t know anything, but at that moment, Killian thought that he wanted to protect Idina Bride.
That girl with pretty eyes.
“If you marry Lilles, that bastard will treat you like my mother. He will not give you love.”
“……”
“Was I wrong? Was the future you envisioned with Lilles different?”
“No, it is not different.”
Killian nodded.
“That’s why I felt the urge to truly kill Lilles that day. However, that is something I absolutely cannot do as a crown prince.”
“…….”
“But I felt the urge to free you from that guy’s clutches.”
Killian closed his eyes gently. He seemed to be thinking of his mother.
That old memory.
Killian must have truly loved his mother.
Idina felt that her previous intuition was not wrong. The reason he was so gloomy was because he lost someone precious.
He did not cry like Duke Bride, but he held the same weight of sadness in his heart. Idina’s heart ached.
He lost his mother before he became an adult. If he had not met his mother right after he was born, if his mother’s misfortune was buried without realization, he might not have felt so sad.
However, when he saw his mother withering away beside the emperor, his heart would have been broken at the death of his mother, who had not been happy all her life. But in the meantime, he met Idina.
She was, so to speak, a projection of his mother. A woman who might experience the misfortune his mother had experienced in the future.
Killian could not just sit still now that he had found such a person.
In fact, he secretly planned to betray Lilles and began to watch Idina.
He secretly learned about Idina Bride and he dug into Lilles’ background thoroughly.
That was as easy as blowing his nose for the crown prince of the empire. The imperial palace was a place where all rumors gathered. Even if he didn’t go out, they would eventually reach Killian’s ears.
If he fulfilled his duties, he could find out more and better information.
Like what kind of banquet Lilles and Idina would attend.
Even if it wasn’t necessarily, for a banquet hosted by the imperial palace, the nobles had to get permission from the imperial palace and submit a list in advance. So that was why he visited them occasionally to see what they were like.
Lilles usually made Idina’s face turn red with insults within 30 minutes. He would swear at her in front of everyone, making her a laughing stock.
Sometimes he would hug the waists of other young ladies instead of having the first dance with his fiancée.
