Duke, Please Stop Because it Hurts

“Are you ready to go?”

“Where are we going?”

“You’ll find out when you get there.”

Molitia had no choice but to accompany Raven with his vague words. Then, from the bedroom itself, Raven straight away headed to the parlor that was not too far away.

“This is the parlor.”

“That’s right.”

Didn’t he say that we’re going shopping? Molitia tilted her head yet again. Having said that, Raven was just casually opening the door for her.

“Huh?”

Molitia’s small lips were wide open at that instant. The parlor was a little bit different from what she had known so far. In fact, there were colorful clothes displayed on wooden hangers that were never seen in the drawing room before.

The woman who was waiting in such glittering clothes eventually discovered the couple before bowing her head down.

“Nice to meet you, Duchess Linerio. My name is Margareta and I’m the one who is running the Valleen parlor. It is such an honor for us to have you called upon our store.”

“Raven, what is this?”

“You’re still not feeling that well and on top of that, I just can’t let the breeze out there to even graze you. So, I brought her here.”

“Oh my God.”

Molitia immediately covered up her mouth—astounded.

“Are you okay with that? Valleen’s dressing room is quite famous in the capital…”

“Please don’t worry, Madame. I came here today with a very reasonable price attached.”

Margareta glanced at the Duke before smiling softly.

“It seems to be your first time using our parlor. So, I believe that it’s better for you to take a look at the clothes at once.”

Sparkle.

“Now, let us show the Duchess your clothes.”

Her helpers straight away unfolded their clothes in unison. Splendid colors and laces began to spread throughout the parlor, which were akin to blooming flowers.

“Madame, what do you think of this outfit? It’s a design that is quite popular in the capital city.”

“Madame, what about this outfit? It’s not that trendy, but the design is constantly loved…”

Molitia, who was already settling down at the warmest place in the drawing room, appeared to be blinded by all the dresses that were instantly unfurled right in front of her.

Eventually, only after she had a discussion with Margareta did she choose a pair of clothes and put them on. Molitia had changed her clothes in the parlor itself, while being covered behind a screen.

“Oh! You look stunning.”

A light pink cloth that resembled a spring flower fluttered across her body. It was a dress that was complementing harmoniously with her soft atmosphere.

Molitia looked awkwardly at the mirror before turning her head towards Raven.

“What do you think…?”

“Oh, pretty.”

Molitia’s face immediately heated up at Raven’s words. His honest compliment had dyed her face red. A fluffy aura seemed to exude fluidly from the surroundings of that said couple. Molitia quickly turned her head again in order not to be caught with such an ablaze face.

“Still, we’ll have to wait and see because other outfits might suit me better.”

After a few more times of changing, she eventually chose some of her favorite outfits. She soon thought that her shopping with Margareta was over as the latter was finally retreating herself with such a satisfied expression on her face.

“Nice to meet you, Duchess of Linerio. My name is Orlando—who runs the Merce jewellery store.”

“Nice to meet you, Duchess of Linerio. I am……”

With the consecutive visits from everyone, Molitia was able to enjoy shopping to the fullest just by relaxing in her seat. Only after the rush of people had left her did peace finally return to the parlor.

“My wife, I’m still here with you.”

A set of tea was neatly arranged on the table where the two of them were vis-à-vis with each other. The emanating smell of fragrant tea eventually soothed their minds.

She definitely said that she wanted to go shopping, but never did she imagine that it would be done in this manner. She had heard that sometimes, those elderly wives would call for them at home. However, it was absolutely unprecedented to call upon that many people in this way at once.

“Thank you very much for today, Raven. I literally felt like I was outside even when we never did go out.”

“We’ll go out in person next time. But of course, unless it hurts too much.”

I absolutely will. Molitia smiled broadly.
