How to Tame a Villain Character-Chapter 184: Approach San Marina’s Residents

Actually, it’s not only today that she is being teased by the residents of San Marina. She had been living in this city for a week, and all she heard were complaints from residents regarding the rejection of the hotel construction. Most of them planned to make a petition to Duke Harry to cancel the hotel construction plan.

However, during the survey within a week, Claudia learned many things even though her heart was always offended every time she heard sarcasm and blasphemy from the residents. This time she will not remain silent because for her, silence will not solve the problem.

After making payment at the cashier, Claudia showed her elegant and professional side and approached the two women who had been gossiping about her for a long time. When she approached the two women, the two women’s reactions did not seem afraid. This was the first time she had faced an ordinary person who dared to act confidently in front of her.

"I heard your conversation earlier," said Claudia, smiling kindly.

"If you have heard our complaints, will you cancel the construction of the EverLasting Love hotel?" challenged one of the women wearing a red dress.

Claudia chuckled as she looked at her interlocutor with focus. "Why do you hate me and my family so much just because we want to build a hotel?"

"Don’t you know what made San Marina City famous in the Godnation kingdom?"

"I know. View of the blue sea, few people, and not many vehicles passing by." Claudia took a short breath. "We don’t mean to destroy the natural scenery that you have been preserving for years. However, our goal is to build a hotel for you."

"What do you mean?" A woman wearing a blue dress asked back.

"Even though San Marina is known as a city with a low crime rate, we also have to attract visitors from outside the city to visit this beautiful city. It’s a shame that not many people visit this city."

"But, those people will destroy our environment!" argued the woman wearing a blue dress.

"No. Because Duke Harry will not remain silent if this city is destroyed due to the greed of visitors from outside the city."

"Is it true that Lord Duke will act?"

"Duke Harry is a cruel Duke in the Edenburgh city. Every time someone commits an evil deed, he will not forgive that person." Claudia took the hands of these two women. "Therefore, please don’t make a petition for him just because of this problem. Don’t get him involved in this problem."

On the other hand, Harry continued to massage his temples while reading a petition from San Marina residents regarding the rejection of the construction of the EverLasting Love hotel. The contents of the petition were also cruel enough to make him breathless because it highlighted the problems his wife had caused. His right hand was clenched tightly, even though he was not mentioned directly in the petition, he felt his heart ache because it was difficult to imagine what position his wife was in at the moment, especially when she was on a business trip there.

When the door to the palace defense minister’s room opened, Harry immediately switched his monitor screen to another document so that his mind could be clear again. The person who came to him at this time was Tyson. Tyson’s face looked confused as he looked around this room.

"Harry, what did you call me suddenly?"

"You must go to San Marina."

Tyson’s eyes widened. "Are you chasing me away? Is there another secret mission that I have to complete regarding the revenge mission?"

Harry shook his head. "No. The mission this time is that you have to take my wife home safely."

"But, aren’t you the one who is more worthy to take your wife?"

"I don’t have the right to her now. If I took her, she would throw me out. That’s why I can only ask for your help."

Tyson exhaled in resignation. "I’m sorry, Harry. I can’t obey your orders directly. But, what if I fail to take your wife? I know you two were fighting until your wife ran away, but I can’t involve myself in your fight."

"You’re the only one I can rely on, Tyson. Even though I can ask Thomas for help to take Claudia, I don’t want my wife’s life to be in danger just because of Thomas’ involvement."

"Why are you talking as if you are being threatened?"

"It’s a very long story. I’ll tell you when I’m ready. What’s certain is that I want you to take my wife unharmed."

Tyson nodded. "Okay, I will leave now. I will also report to you regarding the situation."

When the full moon shone on the sea, Claudia strolled casually on the beach in a brown leather dress. Actually, she wanted to wear a thin, cream-colored dress, but every time she wore thin clothes, she remembered her husband’s nagging which always made her ears burn.

"Harry, you once said you wanted to see the sea with me at San Marina. Now I can see this sea which is very beautiful at night. Especially when I touch the sea water, it makes my skin feel fresh." Claudia squatted down while dipping her right palm into the water.

Imagining the figure of Harry squatting with her also made her eyes start to fill with tears. Her right hand felt like touching her husband’s head, but it was all an illusion. She looked around her as she repositioned her body to stand up straight. Seeing several children running around on the beach made her remember Harry, who really liked playing with the orphanage children.

"It’s been a week since I’ve been apart from you, but I’m having a hard time forgetting you, Harry. Why do you have the heart to make it so hard for me to hate you? I used to hate you easily, but now when I want to do it like when we first met, I can’t do it."

Claudia started walking again while holding on to the wide hat which almost flew off because the air was blowing harder.

Two boys accidentally bumped into her feet, causing her body to almost lose balance. Just as her body was about to fall onto the sand, she felt someone holding her back.
