The Whisper Of The Sea

Vol 71s

The horse-drawn carriage moved violently under the full moon night light in the city of Cambridge, the two of them returned to the Mansion after lunch and continued chatting with Mr Lewstin who was none other than Leona's father, and the two of them returned to the mansion, he gave Edmund a lot of advice, although his advice sounded like a threat to Edmund, they spent the night until nightfall.

Leona was lying on Edmund's arm, she felt a little tired and sleepy. "Sleep baby, I'll wake you up if we get to the mansion." Edmund. Leona nodded silently, and began to close her eyes. Letting his head droop over Edmund's lap.

Arriving at the Mansion, Edmund held Leona in his arms because he did not want to wake Leona who was sleeping very well, he took her to enter the mansion.

Edmund was about to go up the stairs, when a servant told him something. "Sir, Madam had come here, actually she wanted to take Lady Leona to the castle, but since you two are not there then Madam is waiting in the castle."

"Tell Mrs Alexander, my wife is asleep, she can't go tonight to the castle."

"Good sir." The envoy from Alexander's castle finally left. Edmund lays Leona on the bed, after which she releases the accessories Leona uses on her body, she walks towards the closet and picks up a nightgown for Leona. Edmund replaced the clothes Leona was wearing with light and soft sleepwear.

After changing her clothes she cleansed her body, although her desire was now peaking, but she did not force her desire on the sleeping Leona. He tried to distract her with a cold shower, after which he turned on the reading lamp and started reading.

At 12 p.m., Edmund closes his book and immediately goes to bed, covers Leona and kisses her forehead, and she starts to close her eyes.

The sound of the clock ticking every second of the night made Edmund unable to close his eyes, he tried various ways to fall asleep, but unfortunately he was not sleepy. Leona awoke, she felt the bed sway, and saw Edmund sleeping uneasily.

"Why don't you sleep, Hm?" Leona asked in a hoarse voice. Edmund turned around turning his body, quickly grabbing Leona's body and hugging her. "I'm restless, I can't sleep Leona."

"Why?" tanyanya.

"You really don't know?" Ask with a smile.

"No, why?"

"If it's like this do you feel it now." Edmund said tightening his arms so that Leona would know what she wanted.

"How now? Do you know what I want now?" edmund whisper. Hearing Edmund's wish, Leona felt her body turn into heat and finally nodded.

Mmm, I know what you want, you pervert." Leona.

***

At 08:10

Leona was getting ready, she woke up Edmund who was still in deep sleep, she looked tired after their fight last night, even so, Leona was used to getting up early in the morning, moreover, this morning they had to return to the castle to greet Father and mother Edmund.

"Edmund wakes up, let's get up." Leona shook Edmund's body to wake up.

"Mhm, today we're not going to the castle, baby, I'm still sleepy, you have breakfast first." He muttered, and then continued his sleep.

"Tch, you bedbug."

Leona got ready, she came out of her room and immediately headed to the breakfast room, she saw that breakfast had been served on the table, making Leona smile happily. The delicious menu is served on the table, quickly Leona sits down and picks up a soft and tender Brioche or sweet bread with a glass of warm milk, after which she picks up the sandwich and devours it.

The butler named Mr. Viss came and saluted Leona. "Mrs, should you wait for Mr Edmund? So that the ladies and gentlemen can have breakfast together."

"That's not necessary, Edmund told me to have breakfast first, he's still sleepy, maybe by noon he'll wake up."

"Alright Madam. I just happened to be here to bring you an invitation for Madam." Leona stopped chewing her sandwich.

"Invitation?" Leona picked it up and opened her invitation letter. "Hm, Miss Laura Nicholas Hault? Ahh I know, he's a nephew of Mr. Kenan isn't he?" Leona. The butler nodded slowly.

"That's great Madam, you can make your debut among the noble ladies, let alone Lady Hault a very important person in the city of Cambridge."

"really? it says here I should come by at 10 this morning, now at 08:30 am, then I should get ready." Leona said, she then stood up and ran slowly towards her room.

"Mrs you cannot run ...." The waiter breathed.

***

"Edmund, wake. Take a look at this, I got an invitation from a woman named Laura, do I have to attend the invitation?" Her speech.

Edmund opened his eyes, he took the invitation and read it. "Then we have to get ready, you don't want to be late, do you?"

"You coming too?" tanyakanya.

"certain. I'll come along, but once I get there the women will have their own table, while the men will gather in the other room. How, do you still want to go there? It's up to you baby, if you're uncomfortable, we don't have to attend the invitation."

"I want to go, I wonder what if noble ladies get together." Leona said with a smile.

"You sure? sometimes they will allude to social status issues and display the luxury items they have."

"Hurry and get ready, I want to go."

Edmund gets up and gets ready, as does Leona who is busy looking for a dress, but three waiters take her to the dress room and dress and they dress her up there.

***

They had finally arrived at the residence of Sean Nicholas Hault's mansion. The mansion was just like Edmund's mansion, spacious and beautiful, they both entered. Two guards and a butler greeted them and escorted them to the main hall.

"Please pass by here, ma'am," A maid escorted Leona to another room, while Edmund went to another.

Leona is delivered to a beautiful garden, there has been a neatly arranged long table that has been filled by some noble women who sit at the table, Laura welcomes the arrival of Leona with pleasure, even though they first met face to face, Laura really liked Leona's presence.

"I'm so happy to meet you Mrs Alexander." Laura said.

"Thank you for the invitation, I'm so happy to receive an invitation from you." Said Leona trying as polite as possible and naturally speaking, she had already practiced secretly, when going to speak in front of people with polite language like other nobles.

"Come here, please sit here." Laura held Leona's hand and let her sit down. There were whispers heard from the filled seat. Laura brought her head closer whispering to Leona.

"Don't worry, they all love to gossip, it looks like you'll be the main topic of the conversation this month." Laura said she looked bored with their behavior, as if she had been used to facing their rumors.

"Owh, really?" Leona turned around, but they blatantly did not greet her, only Laura greeted her and invited her over for a chat.

"True to say Miss Leona, you must have been invited by Mrs Hoult." The woman's words made them all whisper. Laura furrowed her brows as she listened to his words.

"Miss Sofia Ridle, aren't you impolite to mention Miss to Mrs Alexander? she has married the lord Edmund Alexander." Laura looked annoyed and regretted inviting her.

"However their marriage has not been recognized in this country, how can I call Miss Leona the wife of Edmund Alexander while there has been no recognition from Alexander's own family."

Before the tea began, the atmosphere had heated up due to the arrival of Sofia Ridle who had been eyeing Edmund.

"Pardon this inconvenience, Mrs Alexander." Laura said.

"Don't worry Mrs Hault, I'm not so worried about insignificant people's remarks, we plan to formalize our marriage soon." Leona.

The sound of a small laugh was heard again from the woman named sofia. "If you could know, in what way would you formalize your marriage? while the marriage of noble families will only be recognized by fellow noble titles as well, maybe you will be admitted after Mr. Edmund married another woman and you will be accepted as his second wife."

Leona was furious, but she tried to be calm, she suddenly turned around and got to know the woman who once gossiped about Sofia Ridle sitting in front of her.

"So who do you think deserves to be Edmund's wife? Aah, do you wish to be Edmund's wife? how can you be the wife of the Alexander family while the woman says that you have thrown your body to and fro to noble men. Or is it just gossip?" Said Leona sharply.

They were all silent, while Laura kept her mouth shut because no one dared to utter the gossip directly in front of Sofia Ridle, even though it was a common secret known to all of them.

"W-what did you say?" How dare you ....

Her face had turned a crimson red, while Leona folded her hands and raised one of her eyebrows, and smiled evilly at him.

He then stood up, "I will not forgive you, I will not remain silent to be told by a lowly woman like you." He said while pointing at Leona. Meanwhile, Leona stood in front of him.

"Lowness? why am I called lowly, is it because I come from the village? that doesn't make sense, does it? you know what lowliness means? If he's passing their bodies to men everywhere."

Leona's counterattack frightened them all, the atmosphere heating up uncontrollably. Laura suddenly stood up. "T-quiet everyone, we better not continue this dispute. Erm ... What if we start the tea first."

No one listened to Laura speak, the woman named sofia was furious, she did not expect this woman before her to attack her back by humiliating her in front of everyone.

Leona seemed to stand quietly, she saw Laura's confused face, out of respect for the host, she tried to sit quietly, she said, but the woman angrily took the strawberry juice that was in front of her and doused Leona, until it soaked her dress.

Leona did not stay still, nimbly Leona took the orange juice in front of her, and doused it directly on her face, after which she took the cream-filled Cake and directly threw it on the woman's face.

Everyone stood up, some trying to clean up the dirt on Sofia's face, the woman who cleaned the sofia dress stared intently at Leona.

"Why are you so rude, how the Alexander family taught you to behave."

Leona was already irritated she just smiled and looked at him. "Didn't you say you'd prefer me to be Edmund's partner over that pel4cur woman?"

"When I ....

Sofia flicked their hands and ran home, as she ran she fell down on the grass, just as the men had just walked out of the room after a long chat.

"Sofia's knock?" Kenan. "What's wrong with his face?"

Increasingly embarrassed, he paid them no heed and continued running towards his carriage, quickly telling him to leave the mansion immediately.

"Leona, this must be it." Edmund.

***

They returned to the mansion right then and there, Leona did not need to explain what happened, she knew why Sofia had experienced such a thing because of her own actions, she did not know who the opponent she was facing.

Edmund exhaled, he then looked at Leona, her dress turning reddish due to the strawberry juice spilled on her chest.

"You angry?" ask Leona.

"No, I'm just worried about you, we both might get scolded when we get to the mansion" Edmund said.

"Why? that woman started it all, Ed, she's looking for something."

"Yes I know dear, but Sofia cunningly will say a no-no to her Dad and report to Dad, that would be another reason not to formalize our marriage."

Leona's down. "So, do I have to be quiet when I'm insulted like that?" Her speech.

"Of course not, I won't let anyone insult you." She hugged Leona until she reached her mansion.

***

Sure enough Edmund said, when he arrived at the mansion, Mr. Alexander and his wife had been waiting for them. His face looks very angry.

"Edmund come here, I want to talk to you."

They went to another room, while Leona stood in the living room in front of Edmund's stepmother, suddenly her hands raised, she was about to slap Leona, but Leona avoided her slap until she almost fell.

"You want to slap me?" Ask.

"Basas women don't know themselves." Madam Alexander muttered furiously.

Meanwhile, Edmund sat down before his father, "I've heard what's going on at Mr. Hoult's residence, you must think carefully Edmund, your marriage is still not official, you know, at least that rule applies in this kingdom. How can the woman adapt to our family, the Alexander family. Just this time Alexander's name was smeared because of his actions."

Edmund looked at him sharply. "What do you want to say."

"It's good that you understand, I want you to marry a noble lady like Miss Sofia Ridle, if you want that woman to be officially accepted into the Alexander family according to the rules of this kingdom, you must marry a noblewoman first and your marriage to that woman will only be recognized legally, at least she will be your second wife."

"Edmund grinned horribly. "Do you consider me honorable if I marry a pel4cur? Is dad still sane?" Grumpily Edmund.
