Why Did I Become the Villainess?

Chapter 151 - : The Visit



 Princess Roese's eyes immediately widen. I can also see that her face is already red. She's flustered! She really has a crush on Rufus. I couldn't believe it. Out of all the Princes in all the Kingdoms? It's Rufus she likes.

 Rufus is definitely a charming Prince, but just like Prince Joachim, Rufus is also a forgotten Prince. How can a pampered and loved by many Princess have a crush on a forgotten Prince? Also, Rufus is considered cursed by many because of his eye and hair color. How can she like him? 

 I mean, Rufus is a good man and easy to get along with. But many people don't like him because of how he looks. People also look down on him because of his title as a Prince. Although he is a Prince, most people don't consider him one since his Father, the Duke, already withdraws from any monarch's duties. Which greatly affected his son's title as the Prince of the Vrawyth Kingdom.

 "Wh-what-t a-are yo-you say-say-ing Lady Csille?" Princess Roese stuttered.

 I just smile at her. She definitely has a crush on him. With how she stutters? Only ladies who have a huge crush on someone do that.

 "Don't worry. I won't tell it to anyone." I wink at her.

 Princess Roese sigh. She then looks back and stares at Rufus for a couple of minutes before she looks back at me. "You're right. I like him, but please don't tell anyone." He bows her head.

 I frown. She looks sad. But why would she be sad about? "Are you okay, Princess? You look sad." I thought I could make her feel happy if we talk about her crush. But why does she looks sadder than earlier? What did I do?

 Princess Roese looks up at me and smiles sadly. "I was just thinking. I can only look at him from far away," she looks back at Rufus. "Because he is way too out of my league."

 I frown. Princess Roese is actually beautiful. She has this gentle and innocent face that will definitely love by everyone. It's the reason why the Saiven people love her so much. So I don't think Rufus is way out of her league.

 Although if I will match them. I can definitely see the difference between the two. Rufus is a laid back Prince and is always cheeky. While Princess Roese is always gentle. She looks like she is too soft for a joke. With how Rufus jokes? I bet she would cry because of annoyance.

 "Don't be like that. I don't think he is out of your league. How can you say he's out of your league?" 

 Although I kind of doubt if Rufus will like her. In this lifetime, he will only like and love one person, and that is Princess Paislee. So, I bet he won't even notice Princess Roese, and with the knowledge that she is a traitor, I bet he loathes her now.

 Princess Roese sighs and stares at Rufus, who is currently talking happily with the others. "He's a Prince from the Vrawyth Kingdom, the most strongest Kingdom among all. While here I am, just a little Princess of the Saiven Kingdom, the weakest Kingdom. Do you think he would notice someone like me, Lady Csille?"

 I look at Rufus. He probably noticed that someone is staring at him, so he look at our side. He then smiles cheekily at me and winks before he talks to the others again.

 "You must be close with him, Lady Csille. Isn't it great?" Princess Roese asks with envy in her voice. But I don't understand why she would be envious. Envious of what?

 "What's great?"

 "You. It must be great to be you. You're the daughter of the Count. The only heir of the Lauretré family, the most prestigious family aside from the Astalieu in the Vrawyth Kingdom. You are the fiancée of the Crown Prince of the Vrawyth Kingdom. You're also close with Prince Rufus, and I heard you are also friends with Princess Paislee, the Crown Princess of the Aeslaerean Kingdom. How great it is to be you."

 Oh, dear. If only she knew how difficult it is to be Csille Lauretré, she wouldn't want to be a different person again. What's so great being Csille, the Villainess? I might be close with Rufus right now, and I might be the current fiancée of Prince Fraser. But what about the future? If only she knew that Prince Fraser and Rufus would end up falling in love with one person, and that's not me. Would she still want to be me?

 "Not everything you see is as easy as is it. We all have our own problems we are facing. As for myself, it might look like I have all the things in the world, but the truth is, those have consequences too. There are many things that I need to face as the Count's daughter and as the fiancée of the Crown Prince. So, being Csille Lauretré isn't that great. And I think you're great too. Princess Roese of the Saiven Kingdom. What else can you wish for?" 

 I understand that her parents are restricting them from doing their duties as the royalties of the Saiven Kingdom. But her life is much more easier than mine. At least she doesn't need to worry about heartbreak, or if the world is collapsing, or matchmaking the Crown Prince to Princess Paislee, and many more. If she only knew what I am facing. She probably won't even think about being Csille Lauretré.

 Princess Roese sigh. "I don't have much freedom, unlike you, Lady Csille. My parents love us too much that they restrict us. It's suffocating. I just want to do my duties as the Crown Princess of the Saiven Kingdom, but my parents won't let me. What's the use of my title if I cannot do anything for my people?"

 I stare at Princess Roese. Trying to see if what she is saying is true. Does she really want to help, or does she wants the power of ruling the Saiven Kingdom? I don't understand why would they do that to their own parents. In the first place, the title of the King will be given to his brother in the future. All they need to do is to enjoy their lives as a youth. But they want to rule now? Do they know how much responsibility the Ruler of a Kingdom has? 

 "Maybe they just want you to enjoy your youth. You only experience being youth once. So maybe they just want the two of you to enjoy life as it is. Life without responsibility." 

 I look at the guys and found Prince Reeve laughing like a drunk guy. Rufus looks at me and winks. Prince Reeve already falls on our trap. All we need to do now is to wait for Princess Roese to feel sleepy. 

 I look at Princess Roese, and I saw her yawning. I smile to myself. The sleeping pills are now working. "Are you okay? You look sleepy. Do you want to sleep first? We have a spare room in here. You can sleep first if you want." I said in a sincere voice. She cannot notice that there's something wrong with the tea I gave to her. 

 Princess Roese shakes her head. "No, I'm okay. I'm sorry, I was busy preparing for this visit that I got exhausted. But I can still talk to you."

 I look at her with a worried expression. "Are you sure? You know we can have a conversation some other day. You look exhausted. Come on. You should rest first."

 Princess Roese wants to refuse at first, but she keeps yawning after. I could also see her eyelids starting to close now. I stand up and look at the guys who are laughing right now.

 I walk up to them. Prince Reeve immediately notices my presence. "Lady Csille, do you want some drink?" He offered his glass of alcohol to me.

 Prince Fraser immediately stands up and covers me with his body. "I'm sorry, Prince Reeve, but my fiancée doesn't drink."

 Prince Reeve looks at us, and he smiles cheekily. "Oh, okay. The Prince is saving his princess. I see." He then looks behind me. "Where's my sister?" 

 I bow my head a little to Prince Reeve. "Prince Reeve, I am here to ask you if Princess Roese can take a rest first in one of the rooms in here. I noticed that she is tired and wants to sleep. So, I thought maybe it would be best if she would rest in one of the rooms here while you are having a drink with Prince Fraser and the others."

 Prince Reeve tried to stand up, but he finds it difficult to maintain his balance. It looks like he is really drunk now. 

 Rufus, who is sitting beside Prince Reeve, immediately stands up too and helps Prince Reeve to stand up. "Prince Reeve, are you okay? You look drunk now. Maybe we should stop drinking already. I don't think you can handle another glass of alcohol." 

 I want to clap my hands at Rufus. I didn't know he has a talent for acting. He sounds so concerned right now. 

 Prince Reeve shakes his head. "No, I can handle." He then looks at me. "Lady Csille, can you help my sister rest in one of your rooms? I will wake her up after we finish here." He then stares at Rufus and the others. "What are you looking there? Come on, let's drink. I still have a lot of things to say to all of you." He then laughs like a drunkard. 

 I sigh and shake my head. He's definitely drunk, but he won't admit it. Boys and their pride. Because of this, your plan will be exposed. He isn't even scared that we might take advantage of him.

 I bow my head at Prince Reeve. "I will do as you please. Also, I would invite one of the Saiven guards you brought so someone can guard her room. So you won't need to get worried."

 Prince Reeve looks at me. "Thank you for your concern Lady Csille. I appreciate that. You can go pick one of our guards. They are at your disposal." He said before he went back on taking with others.

 Prince Fraser, who is standing in front, stare back at me. "Be careful, okay?" He whispered in a worried voice.

 I just nod my head at him and walk towards one of the guards. The guards immediately stand up straight when they saw me walking towards them. "Good evening. Prince Reeve asks one of you to guard Princess Roese. She is sleepy and would like to take some rest here. Can you help me take her to the room?"

 The three guards look at each other before one of the guards takes a step forward. He must be the leader of the guards. "Let me be the one to help you, Lady Csille."

 I walk him to where is Princess Roese is sitting. The guard immediately carries the Princess while I guide him to one of the rooms on the first floor.

 "She can rest her while Prince Reeve is busy talking with the others. You can stay outside the room so you can assure that nothing happens to Princess Roese. If you need anything, you can ask one of the maids here, and they will gladly help you."

 The guards just bow his head and say his thank you before he stands in front of the closed door unmoving.

 Now that Princess Roese is settled, all we need to do is to settle down Prince Reeve. I walk towards the receiving area and found the guys laughing like crazy. 

 I sit beside Prince Fraser and lean on his ears. "The Princess has been settled. How's the Prince going?"

 Prince Fraser leans on me too, to answer my question. "He's on the trap. All we need do is to make him more drunk."

 I look at Prince Reeve and laugh at what he is saying. Poor Prince Reeve. He thought everything is going to their plan too bad they go against the wrong person. 

 Tonight I will make sure that the Vrawyth Kingdom will be the victors. They can only dream of pulling the Vrawyth Kingdom down. We won't go down without a fight. That's for sure.
