The Villain’s Sister Suffers Today

That line just hitting my heart, what’s that?

Bessie went on immediately.

“Alice Danekier, this person. She’s the youngest child of Baron Danekier.”

“Really?”

I straightened my posture and pricked up my ears.

I left out the question of how she could find out. Because it doesn’t matter.

Finally, good-bye to the feeling of being outcast!

“And it wasn’t until a while ago that she made her social debut.”

“Huh? She didn’t look that young.”

Looking young here meant late teens.

In general, the average age for aristocrats to debut in society was around that age.

Alice looked similar to me by a guess.

“That’s true, too. She’s 22 years old. It’s pretty late for the debut.”

“That’s right.”

Well, the average debut age itself is too young,

No, it’s definitely young. Men, women, mid to late teens.

At that age, I was a high school student in my previous life.

‘Is that why there are so many incidents and accidents in society?’

I think so.

“What’s more unusual is that no one knew Alice Danekier until she made her social debut.”

“Huh?”

I tilted my head away from the slightest realization.

“Is that possible?”

It is possible that she made her debut late in society. Because she does not exist in social circles.

But that was a little puzzling.

I saw the beauty of Alice Danekier and saw her immense popularity.

To that extent, it was common for her face to become known somehow even before she debuted in the social world.

At least anyone who has seen Alice at least once from Baron Danekier could have told anyone about her.

But I can’t believe no one knows Alice…….

“Is there a case where she’s being locked up somewhere?”

I frowned at the possibility of abuse.

Bessie seemed to think alike with me, but she didn’t say for sure.

“Well, the truth is that Baron Danekier and his wife know for sure.”

“Hmm……”

“Anyway, Alice Daneki literally appeared in society overnight, and as soon as she became famous.”

Probably. I can imagine.

I remembered the roar of men around Alice at the party.

It was a very noble sight.

“By the way, it’s still normal, isn’t it?

I listened to the story steadily and made a light point at this point.

“It’s a late debut, it’s a possibility, and it’s a little while before the debut that nobody knew about Alice, but it’s hard to say it’s Alice’s problem.….”

Why was everyone so impatient to tell Alice to be careful?

I tried to finish my speech like that. But before that, Bessie’s expression caught my eye.

I paused.

“Why?”

“Alice Danekier’s fame doubled in one fell swoop.”

“What’s that?”

I knew by intuition. That’s the point from here.

Bessie took a little time to say the bad news.Visit no(v)eLb(i)n.𝘤𝑜𝓂 for the best novel reading experience

“Confucious Mora asked Alice Danekier to marry him. At the party at Marquis Mora.”

And I doubted my ears.

“What?”

***

The moonlight was strong.

I sat on the bench and stared blankly into the bright moon.

Even if it was bright, it was the moon, so there was no burden on my eyes.

And how long have I been here?

“Lydia.”

Only after my name was called in a familiar voice did I notice that a welcome face was near.

I slightly turned my head to the side.

White hair reflecting the moonlight was the first thing that caught my eye.

“Ash.”

“What are you doing?”

Well, what should I name this action now?

Well, watching the flowers shivering at night?

Or moon observation?

I don’t know. I tapped next to me instead of answering a difficult question, asking him to sit down.

Ash sat down next to me without hesitation. I reached out and smoothed Ash’s hair.

In the meantime, I laughed because I could feel Ash tilting his head so that it was easy to touch.

I let out a light smile and leaned my head against Ash’s shoulder.

Between the stability delivered from the firm shoulders, I remembered the conversation I had with Bessie during the day.

‘Who, Confucious Mora? You mean Alandga Mora?’

When I first heard the name, I thought I misheard it. So I checked again.

‘The Alandga Mora, who even drank poison for the woman he loved?’

Alandga was a famous name.

It is not because of the power of his family, Marquis Mora.

But because he was the protagonist of a romance story that was more famous than his family.

The story goes like this.

Alandga one day hides his identity and saves a woman from a market he went out to play.

As an orphan and if it wasn’t for Alandga Mora, she would have been beaten to death by the owner of the workplace who used to be abusive.

Alandga, who felt pity for the woman’s situation, brought her into the family, and she became the maid of Marquis Mora.

And the real story started from here.

Over time, the woman who became a maid and Alandga Mora fell in love with each other.

Of course, the Marquis and his wife opposed the plan, but their love was strong.

However, the real barrier to the love of the two was not the opposition of the surroundings from the difference of status.

In fact, the woman was secretly raised by an organization to kill Alandga Mora.

It was a planned meeting from the beginning, and the group’s order to eliminate this goal is given to the woman.

By that time, however, the woman was truly in love with her lover, Alandga Mora.

After all, there were only two options left for her.

Kill the man she loves with her own hands, or be killed for failing her mission.

After standing at a crossroads and conflicting, she eventually chooses her death and tries to kill herself by drinking the poison that will feed Alandga Mora.

But right before that, the truth was revealed to Alandga Mora like fate.

After knowing everything, Alandga Mora immediately goes to his lover…….

‘If my death is the way you live, I’m willing to die.’

He leaves a famous line that will be stuffed with romance and takes poison from the woman and drinks it himself!

After that, it was a set story.

Alandga Mora, who inhaled the poison, does not die immediately but falls into a coma.

The Marquis, who knew the truth but was silent because he wanted the two to break up, belatedly regrets it and destroys the group that threatened the woman.

By the time the organization disappeared from the capital and the woman was liberated, Alandga Mora was miraculously conscious.

Alandga Mora and the woman, who has recovered, have an engagement ceremony amid the blessings of the people around themselves.

….…was an anecdote of Alandga Mora, who became famous for his perfect celebrity and romance personalized narrative.

But the Alandga Mora proposed to Alice.

‘That’s right. That Alandga Mora.’

I couldn’t believe it right away after being confirmed by Bessie again. Her fiance was also there. In short, Alandga Mora proposed to another woman while her fiance watched him.

Because he fell in love at first sight.

‘That’s really crazy…….’

To be honest, I wonder if it’s because the aftereffects of drinking poison only appeared.

If I didn’t think so, it was hard to understand.

He can change his mind with a hundred steps. Yeah, that could be the case.

He can’t help it. Since that’s about his heart and feelings.

Who said that? Love does not change, but man changes.

But he’s changed too much.

Alandga Mora became a scumbag overnight from the protagonist of the once-in-a-lifetime romantic romance.

The ridiculous fall was so embarrassing.

‘So what happened? …how about the engagement?’

‘I’ve heard that he collapsed and was taken away…I don’t know after. I also hear the news that she had attempted suicide, but it’s not a definite source. Maybe Marquis Mora didn’t just watch the story spread.’

I sighed long.

Incredible. Confused. Disappointed.

In the end, funny feelings of betrayal followed.

“What were all the famous lines…….”

He said he was willing to die for her. If he had really died then it would have been the best ending for his romance.

I leaned more all over Ash, keeping my blood up and running…

Instead of asking what I was talking about, Ash silently handed my hair behind my ears.

The calm and gentle touch made me feel good. More than the cool night air that rubs the skin.

I blinked slowly as if my eyes were cold in the moonlight.

‘And Confucious Mora…… it was just the beginning. Since then, more men have been proposed to Alice Danekier. Like Confucious Mora, many of them fell in love at first sight and asked for a marriage, but among themselves.… well, there was also a nobleman who made his name known as a faithful husband.’

‘Even a faithful husband? No, since when? When did the whole mess start?’

‘It’s been a little more than two months.’

There was a reason why I didn’t know that shocking news until I heard it in Bessie’s mouth.

‘It was when I had a wedding two months ago.’

Indeed, I wondered who would have tried to give the news to the new bride.

It’s not that I wanted to get stoned.

‘That’s why that small young lady was called a sinner at the party.’

To be careful of Alice Danekiah means to be careful of our husband’s change of heart.

It certainly wasn’t good advice for the second month of the newlywed.

No matter what I thought of later interpreting the advice.

“…….”

I gazed up at the moonlit garden. Ash’s face was seen as very close.

I opened my mouth impulsively.

“Ash, you know what?”

“What?”

“I can drink poison for you.”
