LORD CHESTER COMES BACK

Upon hearing these words, only Jun knew what emotions stirred within him. How to arrange Jenny? How should I know? This matter has me quite troubled as well.

As Jun struggled with these thoughts, Jenny, in a rage, glared at Lyvia and exclaimed loudly, “Lyvia! What do you take me for? I may like Jun, but I have not stooped so low as to beg him to arrange me! If he doesn’t like me, I can leave! It’s none of your business to interfere like this!”

Lyvia hesitated for a moment and asked, “Where do you want to go?” Jenny retorted angrily, “I’ll go wherever I please, it’s none of your concern, Lyvia! Nor is it any of Jun’s concern!”

Lyvia replied, “You cannot leave. You have the map of the Island of the Five Emperors on you.” Jenny’s face went pale as she stated, “Kill me? If you have the guts, do it in front of Jun.”

At this point, Jenny glared at Jun’s back and began to accuse him once more, “Jun! This is the wife you married! A witch! You stand by and watch her bully me! Watch her kill me! It’s fine, I, Jenny, have always had a tough life. Death would be a relief!”

“Today, if Lyvia doesn’t kill me, I will look down on her!” Jun looked up at the ceiling. Women can be terrifying when they lose their minds.

Yet, at this moment, Lyvia remained unusually calm, looking at Jenny as she asked, “When did I say I would kill you?” Jenny sneered, “Then I will look down on you!”

Lyvia calmly stated, “Many people already look down on me, so where do you stand?” Jenny was left speechless.

Lyvia then turned to Jun and said, “You can leave now. After all, you can’t handle matters between women, and it’s not the first time.” Jun, inexplicably, felt a sense of resistance and questioned, “I can’t handle it? Who are you referring to?” Lyvia took a deep breath and softly said, “Okay, you can handle it, but I also know you always refuse. But do you know how to deal with a difficult woman? Like Theresa at home, like Jenny now, can you handle it?”

Jun was speechless. Despite not wanting to admit it, it was indeed true. Therefore, he usually tried to avoid getting into such difficult situations. Go out more, stay at home less. But unexpectedly, this time out, he encountered Jenny again.

Looking at Jun, Lyvia asked, “So what?”

Jun retorted, “Can you handle this kind of situation?”Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Lyvia replied, “I can try, but I can’t guarantee a perfect result.”

Jun felt a mix of emotions, forced to say, “You can also cause trouble. You’re not quite yourself at the moment, and it’s disconcerting.”

Lyvia retorted, “You’re so good to me, you love me so much, why would I cause trouble for you? If I really anger you, you might deny me as your wife, ignore your son, and focus solely on fighting battles, which would worry me. So don’t worry, I’m a broad-minded person. Otherwise, after lying in bed like a vegetable for so many years, suffering for nothing?”

Jun had nothing to say. Meanwhile, Jenny suddenly calmed down, staring unwaveringly at Lyvia, inwardly lamenting. This woman is something else!

Ultimately, Jun left the room, but upon reaching the outside, he hesitated. He was actually quite curious about how Lyvia would handle the situation. Perhaps… this was fate.

Meanwhile, inside the room, Lyvia and Jenny sat facing each other. Lyvia had pulled up a chair, creating a tense atmosphere as they remained silent, neither speaking first.

After a while, Jenny could no longer contain herself and through gritted teeth, she said, “What are you looking at? You’ve knocked me out four times, examined my body inside out, haven’t you seen enough?”

Lyvia shook her head. Jenny, increasingly frustrated, exclaimed, “What are you shaking your head for? Do you find me ridiculous?”

Finally, Lyvia spoke, “I don’t find you ridiculous, I don’t look down on you, I don’t see you as an enemy. On the contrary, I believe that sometimes, you need to know someone before you can truly understand them.”

Jenny scoffed, “Insane woman!”

Lyvia shrugged, “Believe what you want. But I can tell you clearly, you have a debt to the Chester family. Therefore, as a member of the Chester family, I will not harm you.”

“You played a crucial role in providing the map of the Island of the Five Emperors, without which my husband might not have obtained it, at least not this quickly. So, for this reason alone, if you ever face danger, I, Lyvia, will be the first to help you!”

“I won’t sacrifice my life for you, after all, I have a husband and a son to care for. But besides that, whatever you need, I will not hesitate to provide.”

At this point, Lyvia looked at Jenny and asked, “So, if you were in my position, could you do the same?”

Jenny hesitated for a moment. Lyvia continued, “If something were to happen to me, and I died, you could easily replace me by Jun’s side. But as long as I am alive, you cannot do so.”

“And, to be frank, what I can do, you might not be able to, and even if you could, you would have to wait your turn! After all, there’s a rule of first come, first served!”

“I have given birth to Jun’s son, and as the lady of the Chester Ancient Clan, the matriarch of Jun’s branch, not to mention you, even Theresa, who knew Jun before me, would have to step back!”

“Whether Jun acknowledges you or not is his own business. As a lady of the Chester family, I must uphold the proper attitude, that is the rule! Without rules, there is no order!”

“Is everything clear now?”

Jenny fell silent. Lyvia added, “To stay or to leave, it’s up to you. By my side, I will protect you, but you must behave sensibly, don’t disgrace yourself like a shrew! If you’re not by my side, I’ll still protect you, but to the extent that I can.”

Jenny no longer dared to meet Lyvia’s eyes. She had never imagined… that Lyvia was such a formidable woman.

Just as Jenny was about to say something, Lyvia interjected, “No need to rush to answer me. I don’t like listening to words; I prefer watching actions. Flowery words mean nothing if not followed by concrete actions.”

Jenny hesitated to speak, feeling a knot in her chest, unable to meet Lyvia’s gaze. At that moment, Lyvia stood up, picked up a scroll beside her, and left the room.

Outside, Jun heard Lyvia’s footsteps and immediately left the Temple of the Martial God. However, just as he left, he suddenly heard Lyvia’s voice from behind, “You must be pleased with yourself, right?”
