Villainess Is Changing Her Role To A BroCon-Chapter 205
Boris Novak was the illegitimate son of an aristocrat, a commoner by birth, and had no financial resources. Nonetheless, he had many outstanding qualities, including a clear mind, extensive knowledge despite his self-education, and a decent talent in martial arts.
In fact, Novak was able to make a living through his own efforts precisely because he lacked magical power, and he devoted himself to his studies and martial arts even in his impoverished lifestyle.
He grew up in the imperial capital, and to him, nobles who value magic power that has no use in times of peace seem nothing but foolish, and it seems that he refused to have anything to do with them. Therefore, Novak himself did not take Adelina’s interest in him seriously at first.
Even so, Adelina, who locked onto Novak and pursued him, may be a hunter innately, despite her appearance.
Adelina would have had to give up if it hadn’t been for Grandfather Sergei’s fondness for Novak and his celebrity matchmaking hobby. Adelina said she remained deeply grateful to their grandfather, even now.
And now, Novak was one of the Duke of Yurinova’s closest aides, bringing honor to the Viscount Novak family.
“Thank you for looking after my sister, Mrs. Novak.”
Alexei’s tone was polite because he knew that Novak was busy with his duties as a close aide, leaving Mrs. Novak to handle the Viscount’s family affairs.
“It is a waste of words. It is the duty of a branch family to support the main family, and I am only glad that my husband is of use to you.”
It was the role of the branch family to support the main family, so Adelina sent her husband away, telling him not to worry about the family. She was the epitome of a good wife and a wise mother who raised a son and a daughter while running their own domain.
Her youthful hunter’s temperament was nowhere to be seen, but in fact, it may have been because of that temperament that she was able to do things well.
Mrs. Novak was the daughter of the family, and Novak was the son-in-law. Despite that, she never made her husband feel that his position was weak, and she taught her children that their father was doing an honorable job and raised them to respect him, which was a great accomplishment.
As a result, Novak now seems to be head over heels in love with his wife. This was not because of his son-in-law’s reservation, but because he was grateful to his wife and felt guilty for putting her through so much hard work. Moreover, even Alexei expressed consideration for his wife. In a way, it could be said that this was the most sensible way for a woman to live.
What could I say… she was a woman of passion, wasn’t she? I would have nothing but respect for her, thinking that it must be the result of her daily perseverance and hard work.
In my previous life, it would have been impossible for me to live the life of a woman like her. Maybe someday in this life, I’ll be able to learn from them.
After all, in this world, I was of the right age. I may end up being married to someone else as soon as I graduate from the school….
Where I would go would be decided by Big Brother. As long as I don’t end up in the Imperial Family, I will just have to do what I’m told, no matter where I am.
I wouldn’t want to go anywhere if I could. I wish I could always be by Big Brother’s side.
Following Mr. and Mrs. Novak, other members of the entourage arrived
to greet us.
Among them, the young mine manager, Aaron Kyle, had a scholarly appearance and a sad expression on his face.
“Your Excellency, Young Lady, I apologize for my lack of ability….”
