Chapter 14

"Ugh, I can't take it anymore! I want to go outside! Can't I go out?!"

"Calm down, Casablanca. It hasn't even been a month yet. Since you lied to the noble family, you have to endure this much."

Seeing Casablanca, who is truly starting to lose her mind, and her wife, who scolds her but also has to stay home to take care of her, I think of Mimosa.

I wonder where these two get their energy to focus outward. They never neglect dressing up or chasing trends, and they can't stand not being in the center of praise.

By making Mimosa escape from this house, I have succeeded in confining them to the house, but with their hysterical screaming every day, I feel like I'm going crazy too.

Still, when I think that the reason I have been unable to stop them is because these two have been using the money I earned like water, I have to endure this situation without complaint.

Thanks to my soothing words, such as, "Even if you buy jewelry or dresses now, they will be out of fashion later and you won't have the chance to wear them," their spending has been somewhat restrained.

Their increased food and snack consumption is probably due to stress. I think their figures are starting to deteriorate. At least it's better that they still have dresses to wear.

When Mimosa gets married, I plan to divorce my wife and send Casablanca, who is not related to me by blood, to her wife's family.

I can't take care of them anymore, and my old age might be lonely, but there is talk of my younger brother's second son becoming the successor.

Until now, there has been no interaction with my family because of the poor nature of my wife and Casablanca towards them, but since this is the case, my younger brother's second son, who works as a civil servant at the palace, will move in with his wife.

My brother has always looked up to me for some reason, but I am a weak father who has isolated my daughter. After these hysterical days, I will firmly divorce my wife.

At that time, I must stand tall and show that I am the head of the Norton family, so that Mimosa won't be embarrassed.

I am very scared inside, but according to the secret correspondence with the noble family, Mimosa is developing well into a proper lady. She is welcomed and cherished in the house.

If Mimosa is becoming a suitable bride for the noble family without even realizing it, I must not be afraid.

Today, I will also soothe the two of them with a forced smile.

Mimosa, please be happy. The wonderful marriage prospect that has appeared for you is all thanks to your own actions.

And that has saved me too. Can I also be of some help to Mimosa?

For now, the most important thing is to somehow bring peace to this house.
