Chapter 104 - While Another Woman Fed Him

Lee Yeong stayed beside the bedding with one hand pressed against the front of his robe where Yeon Joo's necklace rested, while Min-ah and Eunuch Jang remained in front of him after finishing their explanation about the dinner. He had entered the room furious because Jong Suk had taken Yeon Joo away before he could even see her, but hearing that his wife had stood beside his table while Concubine Seo sat across his lap had left that anger mixed with something far more uncomfortable. He remembered Yeon Joo holding the wine bottle, remembered Concubine Seo feeding him and kissing his neck, and remembered how deliberately he had remained still because he believed making the performance believable was what Yeon Joo wanted. Now that he knew she had watched it herself, he could no longer think about the evening in the same way.
