Chapter 220

Extra 1- Ductility Tea Time (2)

The Jaxen family’s elixir of stamina recovery is nothing compared to the relief that Ezet gives.

The problem is.

“It’s very addictive. I think there’s a bit of dependency.”

“Yes? What?”

“There are more and more moments when I need you.”

He wants to keep her in his arms all day and doesn’t want to be away for a moment, but Ezet has a life of Ezet. He doesn’t think he can interrupt her if he wants to.

Should he be grateful that Ezet is not as crazy as him? Edmond didn’t believe in God, so he decided to thank her late grandmother.

“Edmond, you’ve been struggling lately, haven’t you?”

If he needs more moments, he will have a lot of things to be tired of. Ezet held Edmond’s hand with a worried face.

“Edmond, you’d better get some rest.”

“What do you mean, rest?”

“Is there anything I can do to help? I didn’t even get to the academy, but… But I read a lot of books, so I can read old books and some foreign languages. Let’s split up the paperwork.”

Mistaken to be tired of Edmond’s heavy workload, Ezet wanted to help him. Meeting friends and enjoying hobbies are good, but assisting the husband in work as a wife is more important.

“It’s not like paperwork… ”

While trying to say he wasn’t tired from work, Edmond shut up. Ezet said she wanted to help Edmond with his work. Harriet’s economic conditions were not very good, and there was no estate to manage, so she’d have to learn from Edmond’s side to process the documents.

Then he can legally hold her by his side.

He can do some naughty things in his office.

‘I’m glad I’ve automated all the external systems.’

Ezet doesn’t know how many documents Edmond has to deal with. Also, it is not known that no one is in or out of his office because all the work is done automatically.

Rather, does she know that Edmond’s office in the outer castle is suitable for two people to share love without anyone bothering them?

“Ezet, can you help me?”

“Of course, I have to help. We’re a couple.”

“But wouldn’t you run out of time for a hobby when you work? It’s hard to go on picnics with other ladies, and the number of times you go to tea parties or horseback riding will be less than now.”

“What are you talking about? Your job is more important than that!”

No matter how Edmond said it, Ezet couldn’t just sit around doing what she wanted to do, and in fact, Erit had been playing around with all sorts of bizarre thoughts for three years; Ezet has been a creed in her grandmother’s words since she was a child.

Making friends is essential, and it is fun to learn horseback riding, appreciate opera, and read books. Still, of course, it is important to process the documents necessary to manage the estate. The former is a hobby, and the latter is a duty.

“Is it not appropriate for me to do? I don’t talk anywhere, so I don’t mind leaving documents that need security.”

“No, it’s more complicated than that, and I think I should teach you around.”

“Oh… I’m sorry. It’s harder for Edmond to teach me, right? Should I learn from the butler?”

“No, it’s not.”

Edmond put down the teacup to make a thud and leaned toward Ezet. Ezet was intimidated for the first time in a long time by the sight of a large man overwhelming him.

“Wh, why?”

“I’ll teach you. Everything. Don’t think about learning from anyone else.”

“What? That… Yeah… ”

Edmond is a perfectionist, and he hates things that aren’t his style. It would be more troublesome if she did it the way she learned from others and then again because he didn’t like it.

‘He’s a very picky man.’

But Ezet was confident. Isn’t it said that a first-time learner follows the teacher? Learn from Edmond, and she will process and organize the documents the way he wants to.

Even if the method is complex and cumbersome, she’s not weak enough to complain about it.

“Okay, Edmond. Then what should I learn first?”

“Wait, I’ll have to clear the glass from my desk in the Oval Office first.”

“Glass? Why?”

“Isn’t it cold? It won’t hurt your back if we use a soft one.”

Ezet, thinking it was not a chair, couldn’t see the correlation between cleaning the desk glass and hurting his back, tilted her head.

‘Once on the desk, once on the chair. Oh, no. Then I’ll have to change the chair to a bigger one.’

Edmond ordered that the device be manipulated to remove the glass from the desk in the office and replace the chair with a large and comfortable one.

“You’ll need a cushion and a bed. I’ll be ready in a minute.”

“Bed? Oh, there’s a lot of work…”

There are times when they work all night, and they’ll need some space to rest during the day. Then they’ll need a crib. They need a cushion to sit down for a long time.

Preparing them now means that Edmond hasn’t been in his office so far.

In other words, it’s only for Ezet. Ezet was a little moved by Edmond’s subtlety of changing office furniture in case she was uncomfortable sitting for a long time or tired of working late.

When she first met him, she thought he wasn’t considerate at all. She wondered if he’s changed like this before.

“Edmond, thank you for being so considerate of me.”

“It’s all right. It’s also a consideration for me.”

Finally, after instructing to place a bathtub beyond the partition, Edmond put down his device.

“Ezet, you won’t be able to go back to your castle for a while, will that be all right?

“It’s all right. What’s wrong with working for you?”

As Ezet smiled, Edmond leaned forward a little more and kissed Ezet. She shivered with surprise. The servant was still standing in the corner of the tea room.

“Get out.”

With Edmond’s words, the servant left the tea room and closed the door without even making the sound of walking.

“Should we do it here first?”

“What? Here first? …Oh, no, wait a minute! Edmond, aren’t you working?”

“Don’t you need to be motivated before you start working so you can focus on it?”

“No! I don’t think I can work like this now!”

“It’s all right. I’ll do your share.”

She was trying to help Edmond with his work in the first place, but somehow realizing that the situation was going in a completely different direction, Ezet shouted, pushing Edmond over the table and leaning towards him.

“Edmond! Work! Work! Work! You’ve got a lot of work!”

“I don’t feel like working right now, Ezet. I need your encouragement.”

“Encourage you? You’re full of energy. Oh, my God! Don’t touch me!”

Slapping his cheeky hand into her skirt, Ezet protested, but it didn’t work against the man anyway.

Eventually, Ezet couldn’t get a foot in Edmond’s office that day, and it took a month for her to complete a batch of reports from the office where she first went to learn how to process the documents.
