Looking for the Villainess Who Spent the First Night

“Nobles should set an example first. Living thoughtlessly like now is an act of disgracing the family name.”

“Lady Bernadette, you dare to leave our family now… … .”

I just cut off Paley's words.

Originally, what really upsets me is that I don't listen to what others have to say and only talk about what I have to say, right?

"I'm saying this because I'm really worried about the Easley family."

Paley's lips turned red with a bluish face, but I quickly continued.

“Know that the Archduke is always keeping an eye on this matter.”

Oh, I thought this was going a little too far.

“What, what?”

Paley's face turned white was so funny I couldn't stop.

Oh, I want to take a picture and keep it!

“I told you this because I thought of old friendships. Do you understand?”

When I said that, I realized that all the mocking laughter and pitiful eyes that were directed at me had disappeared.

Everyone in the store was embarrassed.

No, to be precise, they were examining the dresses they were wearing with troubled faces.

“Now that you know, go home and think about how to behave as a noble lady. Don't waste your time wandering around and arguing. Then I'm busy and I'm leaving.”

bang.

Whoa... … .

It was when I closed the door and took a couple of steps.

“Ah!”

I could hear Paley screaming through the closed door, but I continued at my brisk pace.

“Ayu, I feel refreshed inside!”

I feel relieved to spit it out as I please.

Still, it wasn't that I wasn't worried about the future.

Eclat was even paler than Paley and was angry with me.

“My lady, what did you say!”

“What am I?”

I answered bluntly, but in fact, my heart was beating very fast.

“Then, are you saying that you are being servile or that you are being rude and that you should just stay quiet after hearing those words?”

That was also what I was saying to myself.

You crossed the line first!

“He stayed close to Lady Easley for a while. No, of course she didn't like it.”

“Not now.”

"Well, I'm cool too, but Lady Isley won't stay still."

When Eclat said that, I closed my eyes tightly and then opened them.

Yes, since I, the villain in the original work, was reformed, isn't Paley the world's strongest villain now?

“Ekla, don’t worry. I won't stand still."

“What are you going to do?”

“Don’t move first. But don't worry too much, you won't be hurt."

I pounded my chest with my clenched fist and lifted my chin.

But inside.

'Yeah, like Eclat said, Paley wouldn't stay still. What is it?'

I was so anxious that my teeth trembled.

'No, but I'm better than Leonie being the target.'

I die this way and that way, but I don't know if I'll die from Paley in this life.

I patted my cold arms.

“Then please wait a moment.”

Arriving at Leonie's mansion, I waited for her in the drawing room as guided by the butler.

'A guest came?'

It was fortunate that someone had come to see her.

It was because, ever since Leonie's father got involved in an unsavory affair, Leonie has been secretly ostracized in the social world.

'Anyway, who came?'

There was no one that came to mind.

At times like this, I thought that I should have read 『Leonie in the Blues』 a little more diligently.

'Even if I had read it, I wouldn't have remembered such trivial things.'

It was while I was passing the time biting into the hazelnuts the butler had brought me.

“Oh, Libe.”

Leonie smiled kindly and walked into the drawing room.

Your face looks good for contacting me saying you're not feeling well.

Still, I'm glad he looked good.

I smiled inwardly and handed out dessert and medicine.

“Leonie, I was going to tell the butler and go.”

“No, thank you.”

Leonie smiled brightly and handed over the box.

"Let's eat together. I've come this far, but I can't just let you go.”

“Ah, no. I really wanted to give it to you, but the butler made sure to look at my face and told me to go.”

While I was shaking hands, Leonie called the maid.

“Louisa, please give me this.”

Louisa gave a puzzled look as she accepted the dessert box.

“Vice is very popular. How come all the customers who come buy dessert from Weiss?”

I couldn't miss what she said.

All the customers bought dessert from Weiss?

“Leonie, I heard that a guest visited a while ago.”

At my words, Leonie showed an awkward smile.

“Yeah, I didn’t promise, just.”

It was a face reluctant to speak, an expression similar to the one he had shown when he ran home from a ballroom.

Maybe it's because I'm curious about the uncomfortable eyes?

I couldn't stand it and asked a question out of the blue.

“Are you Sir Adrian Watford?”

At my question, Leonie looked puzzled.

"how did you know?"

My head started spinning very fast.

At the ball not long ago, Leonie and Adrian were apparently enjoying a walk in the garden.

Her shoulder seemed shy somehow, her movements swayed, and although she was quite far away, she definitely looked happy.

But Leonie's fate is Gerlac.

All the bad luck that happens to her now is because it doesn't go back to destiny.

'But no matter how much I think about Adrian, I can't remember when he came out.'

Could it be that I skimmed through the fingerprints and read only the dialogues and missed them?

In other words, Adrian's weight in the original work was not high.

'What do we do? Everything must have been twisted because I was entangled with Zellac.'

Anyway, I needed to know what Leonie and Adrian were like.

I decided to be honest about what I saw and what I knew.

“Ah, that's what I mean. actually… … .”

“Libe, I have something to tell you.”

"uh?"

No, can't you start with my words first?

“What to say?”

Leonie tossed the words with a firm expression and hesitated.

Then they started talking about what they had decided on.

"We've been friends for a very long time, haven't we?"

“Yeah, that’s right.”

It's a memory I don't remember, but Leonie and I have been close since we were very young.

Of course, I was endlessly jealous of Leonie, and I think she gets in the way of my luck and ends up monopolizing the person I love.

Ah, it's not that I'm like that now, but that's what the villain Liberata in the novel was like.

“Live, when I was little, I liked going to your house to play.”

“Yeah, it was.”

“Perhaps it was so much fun sneaking a look around my brother’s study and room.”

I didn't remember it, but it was an interesting situation just thinking about it.

"You remember messing up Oliver's homework or messing with his garden?"

“Oh, yes! ha ha ha!"

I tried everything I could to avoid looking like a fake laugh.

“I can only laugh now, but how scared my brother was at that young age.”

"right."

“Hiding in our closets, getting under the bed and doing that.”

“It was, it was.”

“So when Oliver gets scolded.”

Leonie slightly lowered her head and continued with a grin.

“Brother Adrian has always been on our side.”

“Ah, yes, yes!”

It was when I was laughing hysterically while thinking about whether there was such a scene.

“You don’t remember.”

The corners of his lips trembled at Leonie's words.

I scratched the bridge of my nose a couple of times with an awkward face.

“Because it was so long ago. Maybe I remember, and maybe not.”

"really? I feel as fresh as yesterday.”

“Yeah, what. Leonie, you are so smart.”

I wanted to bring up a story that happened more than ten years ago.

I've known you for a long time, did you want to say something like this?

It was the moment when Leonie took a sip of the tea in front of her, leaving the cake, which had not yet been touched by Leonie, still in its pretty shape.

“He is my first love.”

“Cool, cool!”

“Ribe, are you okay?”

Leonie's sudden remark caught in her throat.

I pounded my chest and tried to swallow her words inside.

“Oh, how are you doing? It's okay?"

“Okay, it’s okay. it's okay… … .”

No wait, Sir Adrian Watford is Leonie's first love?
