Yane Urabeya no Koushaku Fujin - Vol. 1 Ch. 2.2

[Psychronia]

Yeesh. Once again, you'd expect people to at least pretend to treat the source of their paycheck well.

No matter. She's reading the account books now and is going to prove herself the real Duchess, by merit, not by love.

 

[Stormdragon]

Why should she apologize? It's not her fault everyone's an idiot and assumes shit of her.

This was a pretty big cliffhanger so I cheated and looked up the synopsis of the novel...

Spoiler

Opal looks over the accounts and finds out that her idiot husband has servants that were embezzling funds (due to gambling debts). When she gives him the evidence, he just dismisses her as a slut who doesn't know anything. She then runs away to her family because she can't take his abuse anymore, her family devises a plan to take over his duchy because she knows they're in worse shape than they thought, but she has to stay married to the idiot. Knowing now that no one was going to help her, she goes back to her husband, writes up a document that Hubert doesn't read and signs off on, and basically signed over his entire land to her. He spends the next years of his marriage, working for his estate back, bit by bit.

I don't know how long it's going to go on in the manga, but I really hope they fast forward this to the payoff, because poor girl is being tortured. =(

@zdarkbrz_816 Just drop it now. We all know its going to happen anyway.

 

[Suckerforshipping]

Why do you fucking care what she’s does and where she goes? Go kill yourself, you bastard

 

[shiho]

I wanna kill that bastard duke and Stella. I hope she get out of that house and live the dukedom to ruins. May she end up with Claude.

 

[Baxkill]

Apologize for what you dumb bastard

 

[icam98]

I don't fucking get this guy. He's the one being an ass and fussing about but somehow she needs to apologize can somebody just labotomize the idiot
?

 

[LonelyBye]

No wonder he went bankrupt, he has literally 0 iq

 

[frenchfry]

Apologize for what ?????? This is making me mad lol but for some sick reason I’m compelled to read on

 

[BakugouYuki]

We need Su Luxia here. 😤

 

[LullabiesLullabyes]

If this asshole is the ML I'm dropping this

 

[helloicecream123]

Please let Claude be the male lead, please let Claude be the male lead!

 

[Leeleegendary]

lol well if you do not want to lose your man then you should be rich af too ) what a lame reason =))
And please make anyone except that mtherfxxker the ML

 

[sockerdricka]

He is goddamn awful. Even if you marry a "slut", someone you somehow think is defiled, he should not treat her like dead weight that is not allowed to exist at all. Give her space. Not buying his bullshit at all. He is an awful person.

 

[jaellasster]

broke ass mf. no wonder he has no money to his name. his IQ is backwards. i hope she destroys him lmao.
i'm fine with anyone to be the male lead as long as it's not that dumb, broke ass mf.

 

[rona_shen]

Of course there is. This brainless man can't think for himself so he's the best target.

 

[AviVai]

"If she'll come to apologize"

Remind me, for what she needs to apologize? For suggesting to kill her? Or what? Are you thinking that she should apologize just because she is rumoured slut? Man, that's some abusers logic

 

[Aloeverayum]

Her: there seems to be purposeful mistakes in the account book
Him and the servants: yeah right you probably wrote that in yourself
