ISEKAI'D INTO REMARRIED EMPRESS

CHAPTER 33

After the doctor and everyone else filed out of the room, I pulled over a chair to the bastard’s bedside. He cracked open his eyes and fixed his gaze right on me, while I took a towel from a cold basin beside him, squeezed it, and placed it on his forehead. He flinched as soon as the towel touched his skin.

“It’s cold.”

"The physician said you've been working too much"

"I know I was awake when he said that"

"It seems we shouldn't have taken this trip"

"I'm sorry for ruining your birthday"

You better feel bad.I could be hanging out with everyone and get showered with gifts but here I am taking care of you

But I can't show it to him ofcourse

It would ruin my plan

"It comes around every year.Please don't worry about it"

"But you only have one birthday this year.When I talk to you,it's like..."

"You can make it up to me when you're all better.Till then,I'll be taking care of you"

"What?"

"I'll take care of you myself,your majesty"

"Empress, you'll take care of me yourself?"

The bastard looked dumbfounded with what I said but I ignored it

"Yes so please get some needed rest"

I stood up from my chair and forwarded my hand to his hair.

"I'll get you something to eat"

I brushed his hair a little and he looked shocked with the sudden touch

I drew my hand away and he was still in shock and he kept staring at me

I turned to leave and went to the door

When I was finally out the room,I took out a napkin and wiped the hand I used to touch him with it

I threw the napkin away and proceeded to go to the kitchen

I asked the cooks to make chicken soup and I waited in another room

My plan seems to be working.He's a bit agitated for now but with a little bit of a push,I can have him where I want him.

For now,I'll give him attention and tend to him.That way,he'll feel like we're getting closer.I'll keep up this cherade only while we're in the villa,then when we go back to the palace, I'll be distant with him again.

I'll make him crave my attention and make him paranoid about everything when it comes to this marriage.

But ofcourse I'll have to plant some ideas to his head to make him think of such things

When the soup was done,I personally brought it to the asshole's room from the kitchen

I got a few stares since this was a surprise considering my Empress was never expected to do work like this

Well,I have to keep up this pretense if I want my plan to succeed

I have to sacrifice my pride for the sake of satisfaction

I sighed

If only I had poison or laxatives on me

I got inside the retard's room and he was still awake when I arrived.

I closed the door and went to his side

He was surprised again when he saw what I was holding

"Empress,you didn't have to bring that yourself.You could have had the servants do it"

"And didn't I tell you to rest,your majesty?This is why I have to take care of you myself. I really can't take my eyes away from you when you're like this"

"W-what?"

The piece of shit looked confused again as if he couldn't comprehend what's happening

I put down the tray of soup on the nightstand and sat at the chair again.

"Your majesty,raise yourself a little"

"Why would I need to raise myself?"

To answer his question,I took the tray and layed it in my lap.I held the spoon and scooped some soup into it.I raised it to his mouth and he was taken aback yet again

The jackass was looking skeptical so I tilted my head a little and acted confused

"Your majesty?"

He then hesitantly ate the soup and when the spoon came out empty...I smiled

"Is it to your liking,your majesty?"

"Y-yes.Thank you Empress"

He looked away embarrassed and I just kept on smiling but really I was repulsed in the inside

I have to keep this up until he's hooked

"Here,have some more your majesty.You have to eat well to get better soon"

I continued spoon-feeding him and the son of a bitch looked like he was on cloud nine

He kept smiling and looking at me with happy eyes.I had to avoid eye contact to not break my act

When the soup was done,I put the tray on the nightstand and watched as the douchebag layed in bed all satisfied

Augh,I want to wipe off that smile off his face

But this means my plan is working

"I'll get you some water,your majesty"

But before I could stand up,the jackass grabbed my hand to stop me

"Leave that to the servants.Let them do their jobs.You just...stay here"

He really loves commanding everyone around him

What an ego

I can't believe I'm making myself put up with this bullshit on purpose

"If that's what you want,your majesty"

I sat back down and called for a servant

When the servant came in,he seemed surprised with what he saw

That's when I realized the buffon was still holding onto my hand

I have to keep it in to see this till the end

I asked for some water and the servant immediately left to get it

When I turned back,I saw that the imbecile was looking at our intertwined hands

He must be really having the time of his life

He better enjoy it cause the more he wants this,the more he suffers
