Chapter 13: 12

Chapter 12

“Yes, your choice.”

It was a very scary word.

It all depends on my choice.

I unknowingly swallowed my dry saliva and looked up, but the old woman was staring at me as if she were going to pierce me.

“Your decision will change a lot.”

But I've already made my decision.

It just doesn't go the way I want it to.

I was just a villain who harassed Yeo-ju and disappeared in the dew of the executioner. So she didn't really want to be loved by a male lead, and she never dreamed of it.

“I have already made up my mind. But what if things don't go your way?”

“Then it has no choice but to perish.”

The old woman said the frightening words with a calm laugh.

“My lady needs to move harder than now. If he is left to pass, terrible things will happen.”

“… … .”

At that time, Leonie, who had been quietly listening to our conversation from the side, opened her mouth.

“Um, could you give this friend a knot bracelet too? I will pay.”

After coming out of the astrologer's tent, Leonie's face was much lighter.

“I think it was a good idea to come and have a look.”

Leonie fiddled with the knotted bracelet the old woman had given her.

The bracelet was the one that the old woman had touted (?) to her, saying that it warded off bad luck.

Even though I knew it was a strong sale, the excitement of entering the tent for the first time disappeared and I didn't say anything.

<Someone has stolen your destiny. There will be no peace until it returns.>

I couldn't stop him from unpacking and handing over all of Leonie's accessories.

It was because the words the old woman left turned into sharp eyes and glared at me.

“Libe, now this bracelet will prevent all bad things from happening, right?”

“Yes, then.”

I hoped that would happen, but I just couldn't wait for that.

'Yes, you can't let it flow. Let's move more actively. I have to return the heroine's fate to Leonie and live on.'

While answering in a firm voice, I promised myself again and again.

“Libbe, are you really okay?”

“Yes, brother.”

After giving a short answer, I again stuffed the cake on the table into my mouth.

“Can I really not call the doctor?”

My father came to visit me all morning and asked about my well-being, and in the afternoon I was suffering from my older brother.

“Yes, of course.”

In fact, this friendly older brother was also new to me.

Is it because the story changed as my fate changed?

He, who was always abroad and never met, returned to the Bernadette mansion this morning after a long schedule.

“Then shall I get some medicine from the pharmacist?”

There is one reason why my father and older brother are worried.

This is because my food intake has increased tremendously.

“But Libe. Everyone is worried about you, including Eclat.”

Due to anxiety and stress, I craved sweets, and since it was an environment where I could eat, I just ate as much as I wanted.

Oliver Bernadette, my beautiful and kind brother, always looked at me with worried eyes.

"It's okay. It's because the cake is so delicious.”

I carefully put down the silver fork and smiled.

“Brother, stop nagging the sister you met after 10 days.”

Oliver was a diplomat. He is a fairly well-recognized young talent in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and ten days ago he returned this morning from attending a security conference in Bochum.

But before you even unpack the gift package, you start worrying and nagging!

I mixed complaints with a friendly voice.

“It’s been a while since we met (actually, it’s the first time we’ve seen each other), but I don’t like stories like this.”

“Oops, I’m sorry. But to hear that you keep looking for something you don't normally eat... … .”

Yes, now I'm happy... … No, I need to stop using stupid ways to relieve stress.

“Oh, Libe. I heard that His Highness the Grand Duke visited recently.”

I just thought I'd stop eating sweets, but as soon as I heard the mention of Zerlac, I wanted to pick up my fork again.

"yes."

Oliver gave out a puzzled voice when he answered bluntly.

“Why is your expression like that?”

“No, I just feel uncomfortable talking about His Highness.”

He only blinked his big eyes as if my answer was very unexpected.

“Oops.”

Whether it was the grand duke, the man, or the socialite, I hurriedly turned away because I didn't want to talk about it.

“Brother, what else did you buy like that in Bochum?”

When I pointed my finger at the large box behind my back, my brother smiled brightly.

Nothing was more effective than my brother's lovely smile in calming my sharp mind.

Oh, except for the cake I just ate.

“This is not what I bought in Bochum.”

"sure?"

My brother touched his chin a couple of times and made an awkward expression.

“I went to greet the Grand Duke this morning after finishing my schedule.”

“… … .”

“He said to give this to you.”

My brother stood up and approached with a huge box on the floor.

Every time the box got bigger, I couldn't help but cringe as if Xerlac was approaching.

“This, this?”

“Yeah, I don’t know what it is.”

After putting the box down on the table, my brother took a step back.

I looked up at my brother with an expression that could neither laugh nor cry.

“Uh, where are you going?”

“His Highness requested that you be considerate of presents so that you can open them by yourself.”

What kind of nonsense is this again?

After saying that, my brother leisurely left my room.

“What is this?”

I didn't even touch the gift box sent by Zerlac, nor did I open it.

What's in it that makes the box so big?

I carefully began to open the paper packaging. The splendid rose flower pattern was somehow creepy the more I looked at it, and it made my heart beat faster.

Oh, troubled and embarrassing.

“… … .”

I opened the package in a cold sweat to reveal something finely covered in purple velvet.

The moment of hesitation was when the cloth was immediately lifted.

"What's this?"

Inside the box was a dress as thin and fluttering as the wings of a dragonfly.

I grabbed the hem of the dress with two fingers and lifted it up as if I was catching garbage.

It was a satin dress decorated with detailed lace, and it was full of light pink as if it contained the extreme of loveliness.

“What the hell is this… … .”

It was a beautiful dress.

It is full of precious pearl decorations, and I heard the desire to appreciate it under the sunlight for a very short time, really briefly.

But it wasn't what the man wanted.

No, you can't take it!

“Eclat, Eclat!”

As if I had seen something I hadn't seen, I threw the dress on the table at random and called for the maid.

“Did you call me?”

It was close to tea time, so Eclat came in right away at my call.

She looked at me with surprised eyes as I held onto the dress with a slightly flushed face.

“What are you doing, lady?”

“Ekla.”

The hand holding the hem of the dress went into strength.

“What should I do?”

“What are you doing, lady? Oh my gosh! It is such a pretty dress!”

“Uh, of course it is.”

“It is so beautiful. Lady, it would be perfect if you wear it to the upcoming ball.”

“Ah, that can’t be!”

As I jumped up, Eclat looked very embarrassed.

“No?”

I can't explain in detail, I'm going crazy.

'It's a big deal.'

It seems like things are more complicated than I thought.

The two are linked by a string of fate.

Wait a minute, I accidentally caused an accident, but I thought I could get it back.

Why is Xerlac so obsessed with me!

How to do this.

“Ekla.”

“Yes, lady.”

“If that’s the case, what should I do when things keep going differently than I thought?”

“When things go wrong?”

“Yeah, very messy.”

"Well."

Eclat seemed to be thinking hard about something, then began to speak cautiously.

“If it were me, I wouldn’t do anything.”

“?”

“Because I can’t do anything. There were times like that.”

Maybe she's right.

There are things you can't do. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't escape death.

“What if I can’t do anything?”

"then… … .”

Eclat tilted her head to one side again.

“Then you have to fight hard! Ask for help from those around you and do your best as much as you can!”

“… … .”

“But what are you really doing?”

“Oh, no. Whatever happens.”

“The lady seems a bit uneasy these days… … . I won’t be of much help, but if you feel frustrated, please tell me at least.”

Eclat put her hands together and told me.

be nice and kind

'Ah, anyway, you should never wear this.'

Then, a very good idea popped into my head.

 

Maybe this could be a good opportunity?
