Resetting Lady

Chapter 81



Chapter 81

I know n-nothing.

Dullan bowed his head. He looked like a kid who had done something wrong. He averted his eyes, but Carynnes hold on him got tighter as she pressed him.

Dont make me laugh. Its impossible that you dont know anything. Theres no way youd be so sacrificial for nothing. You cant just believe! What do you even believe? What the hell are you so sure of?!

I-I-I know nothing!

Dullan!

Carynne stood up. The scissors clattered to the floor. She knew that it wouldnt have posed any threat to Dullan. So, she rushed at Dullan and clung to him. Right then, he looked like he wanted to run away from her. But he couldnt shake her off.

What is it that you want? Do you want to sleep with me? Is it my bodydo you lust for my body? Okay, lets do it, however many times you want. No, maybe, is it money? Ill give you as much money as you want. Okay? Please tell me what you know. Anything at all, please tell me. Even if all you know are just guesses, even if its just one thing, please, tell me. If you want, okay, in this iteration, lets get married. Ah, but maybe the situation wont permit it? Alright, okay, let me kill Isella. And then you can take me back to the parish. People dont get arrested when theyre on sacred ground. Bring me there and play with me all you want, thats good, too. If not that, okay, my dead body. You can go ahead and play with that. Just tell me any

P-Pull yourself together.

Do I look like I can?

Finally, at this moment, the clue that she wanted to hear came up!

D-Dont act like a whwhore. Y-You dont even lolove me.

Carynnes mouth gaped open as she heard Dullans answer. Speechless. Absolutely taken aback. What are you talking about? You said you believe, but what the hell are you talking about right now? When were already at this point?

Dullan, Dullan. Darling. No way Are you being serious? You, right now. Do you think that you or Raymond or anyone elsedo you think that any of you matter to me, truly? Do you think that its still important for me to get with some guy? Are you that big of a moron?

Carynne grabbed Dullan by the collar and tightened her grip.

Say whatever you want to say. No, I mean, please tell me. Ill do whatever you want. Ill get you whatever you want.

Let me die, please.

Dullans expression became distorted. It was like hes looking at something horrifyingly grotesque. But Carynne noticed. Despite it all, his thing down there was getting excited as their bodies were pressed together. Would you look at that. In the end, your words and your actions are different. Its like that even in this situation.

Carynne reached down and touched him, then she smiled. If its her body he wanted, then thats a cheap price to pay.

However, Dullan pushed Carynne away.

D-D-Dont be like this.

Why?

T-T-This This.

You want to do it with me though.

His words were always the direct opposite to what his body wanted. Hed say how contemptible such acts were, but he was a lustful man anyway. He was like this in the past, and hes still like this in the present. Carynne knew Dullan well. The best way to get through to him was with her body.

I-I-I do not!

Dullan pushed Carynne away roughly. The look he had on his face right now was almost akin to a virgin girl whos getting assaulted. Seeing this, Carynne was dumbfounded.

He scrambled away from Carynne and straightened his clothes. He was panting. It even looked like tears were about to form around his eyes.

How annoying.

Carynne pressed down the urge to tear out all of Dullans hair. The very first thing she should have done was to torture Dullan to death. In the next life, she now planned to ambush Dullan while he was asleep.

Lets hold it in right now.

Y-You dont love anyone ddo you.

It was a question that did not seek an answer. Dullan covered his face with his hands.

I-I-It must be like that until n-now.

Stop talking about boring things. Take off your clothes. Or do you want to keep them on?

With his body shaking convulsively, Dullan crossed his arms over himself and held himself. He shuddered and stammered as he spoke.

I-I-I still dont know anything. But if you atone and come to l-love someone

What?

If, if you f-fall in love, t-true love

Still covering his face, Dullan stuttered.

Ill, Ill tell you eve, everything I kn-know right, now. You s-seem so t-tired.

Carynne had to stop the urge to scoff at his face here. Like Catherine, like Carynnes father, was Dullan still playing along and acting like this was a romance novel? She strode closer to Dullan and spoke.

Hey, cut the bullshit.

Just hurry up and sleep with me, then tell me what you know. If you want to tell it to me for free, then thats good, too.

However, Dullan was still cowering in one corner and covering his face. It almost seemed as though he was crying. His entire body was trembling. Carynne felt dirty, as if shed become some bloke whos harassing a halfwit. Who here wronged whom?

N-N-Not me.

Ha.

Not me.

Dullan took his hands off his face. Contrary to what she previously thought, Dullan didnt cry. Rather, his expression was stiffas hard as a corpse.

D-Dont forget. You have to fall in love to the extent that it can be acknowledged.

* * *

Raymond lowered his gun.

Carynne did not kill Dullan. Neither did she kill Isella. This was enough. Theres no reason to kill Carynne now. Raymond recalled his conversation with Dullan.

S-She has not sinned.

What must he do here.

Raymond hated the chaotic situation that he found himself in. He just wanted everything to be clear. Once tomorrow would come, they would need to talk more. Carynne was too risky to interrogate. He thought that perhaps it would be better to bring her to a relatively safer place and observe her. But his mansion was too far away. He mulled over where a safe place might be. Which household must he ask a favor from.

There was no need to kill her. At least, for now.

Raymond unloaded the gun.

* * *

I dislike complicated things.

Thats great. Me, too.

Carynne rubbed the sleep out of her eyes as she greeted Raymond, who knocked on her window ever since dawn. After she talked to Dullan, who ordered but not ordered her to fall in love, her mind became a complicated mess, so she answered like that. She greeted him with a blank expression.

Pardon me for visiting a ladys room so early in the morning.

I did it to you before as well.

Thats true.

Carynne rubbed her eyes once more and closed the window.

How is your back?

Not so good. Still better than yesterday thought. I drank quite a lot of medicine.

Thats a relief.

Yes. I heard that you brought Dullan out when he was still with Mister Verdic. Thank you.

As she recalled what Donna excitedly told her earlier, Carynne bowed her head.

Fall in love.

And, she recalled what Dullan said. But was it possible? She started seeing this timelines Raymond under the premise of a mutual endeavor to take revenge against Verdic, but even in the past, she could tell that Raymond approached Carynne intentionally.

No way. Maybe in the past, Raymond never truly loved Carynne, thats why she was still stuck in this endlessly repeating life?

Once again, Carynne agonized over her complicated thoughts, but Raymond called her name. So, she raised her head.

Carynne.

Yes.

I hate complicated things.

Yes.

Thats why, please just tell it to me straight.

And so, Carynne decided to ask directly.

Sir Raymond, do you love me?

The sight of Raymonds reaction made Carynne crack a smile.

Are you mad?

Ah, I knew it.

Shes definitely awake. As Carynne shook her head, she wrapped her quilt around her and sat on the bed. The window was open earlier, so the air had turned chilly for Carynne, who had just woken up.

With a nod, she implored.

Please say you love me.

Why?

Just for the sake of it.

I love you, Carynne.

Please say that again in front of Dullan.

You are a very cruel woman.

A curse word was uttered. Raymonds expression was stained with near abhorrence. As expected, the best ever thing to do was to torture Dullan.

Sir Raymond! Please torture Dullan!

Send Carynne Evans to the insane asylum. She is a prime suspect and must be punished severely.

Yeah, that might be how itd go, right?

What the hell was the best answer.
