Why Did I Become the Villainess?

Chapter 307 – Confession (3)

 I was startled when I heard someone call my name. I look back and find Princess Paislee staring intently at me.

 "Pr— Sir Farren?" 

 I almost call her by her name. It's a good thing I stop myself, or else she will be doubtful of me. 

 Princess Paislee looks around before she walks towards me. "Dame Csille, can I give some advice to you?"

 I frown. Advice? What advice is she talking about? Is it something about Prince Fraser? If that's the case, I would rather not hear it. I'm good. I don't need her advice.

 "I'm sorry, Sir Farren. I'm quite busy today. Maybe some other time."

 I don't want to hear your advice. I don't know why you keep making Prince Fraser a good guy in Csille's eyes, but I don't like this. 

 This is not supposed to happen. Where can you find a female lead is matchmaking her own Prince Charming to the Villainess? That is going against all rules in the Fictional world.

 I was about to get away from her, but she caught my arms. "Dame Csille, I really think you should hear this. It's something important."

 Important? The only important thing for you is Prince Fraser, so I'm sure her advice is about Prince Fraser again.

 I heave a sigh and nod my head. Princess Paislee looks so determined, and I know she won't stop talking to me unless I agree to hear what she wants to say.

 "Okay. What is this advice you want to say?"

 Princess Paislee looks around first before she leans towards me. "Don't try to do things that you shouldn't be doing. There are reasons why things are happening."

 She then left after saying those words. She didn't even wait for me to respond. I just look at her back and frown.

 What does she mean by that? Don't do anything I shouldn't be doing? What is she referring to? What is the thing I shouldn't be doing? 

 I don't really understand what she is saying. Does she know I already know her secrets? Or does she know about the confession of Rufus tonight? 

 I was busy thinking when I suddenly heard someone call my name.

 "Csille?"

 I look back and find Prince Fraser looking at me. He then looks behind my back. "Did Sir Farren say something to you?"

 I raised my eyebrow at him. So, what if he did? Why does he want to know about it? 

 I bow my head at him. "Your highness, he did say something, but it's nothing important."

 I won't tell you a thing even if you pressured me because I don't even understand why does Princess Paislee said that. 

 Prince Fraser takes a step closer to me. "And you really think I would believe that? He said something important to you for sure because he wouldn't lean closer to you if it's not important. So, what does he tell you, Dame Csille?"

 Why does this couple want from me? Why do they need to always put me in a tight situation? 

 "Your highness, don't you know the word privacy? I don't think it is right for me to tell you what we talked about. If you want, you could just ask he—" and I almost call Princess Paislee as a her. I should really be careful with my words now. "Him if you want to know about. If you'll excuse me, your highness. I still need to see my Father."

 I was about to walk past him when he suddenly grabbed my arm and made me face him. 

 I heard a few gasp behind us. I look back and find a few ladies looking at us. Although Prince Fraser and I are considered by many as engaged already, they are still not used to seeing people who are not married to be this intimate.

 We look like we're hugging each other right now, so I understand why they gasp when they see us.

 They immediately bowed their heads and apologized to us before they hurriedly left the place. 

 Great! What now? Will it becomes an issue again?

 "Csille, I'm warning you…"

 I look at Prince Fraser and frown. Warning? What did I do wrong this time? Why does he always see my mistakes? 

 "You're my fiancée, so you should stop getting close to other guys except me. And that also includes Sir Farren or even my cousin, Prince Rufus." He then looks at me straight into my eyes. "Is that clear to you?"

 What? 

 What did he say again? Am I hearing things? Did Prince Fraser really say that to me? 

 "Csille, did you hear what I said? Or do you want me to repeat it?"

 I shake my head and blink my eyes a couple of times. My mind still couldn't process what was happening. I don't understand why Prince Fraser is saying all of this. Is this some sort of a glitch? There is no way he would say something like that to Csille. It's really impossible. I would rather believe Rufus if he said he likes Csille, but not this. This is beyond my comprehension.

 "No, no. I heard what you said. You don't need to repeat." Before I can think of something to say, my mouth subconsciously answers Prince Fraser. 

 Prince Fraser nods his head in satisfaction. "It's a good thing you understand how this can affect my reputation. You are already my fiancée. What will people say if they see you getting close with another man beside me?"

 With just two sentences, I woke up from my trance. I knew it! He wouldn't say it because he had some sort of feelings for Csille. He only said that because he cares about his reputation. 

 What can I expect from Prince Fraser? How can I expect him to care about me? That is impossible.

 I nod my head. "Is that the only thing you can say? Can I leave now? I still have other things to do, your highness."

 Prince Fraser let go of my arms as if he felt disgusted touching it. "Yeah, you can leave."

 I look at Prince Fraser for the last time before I leave the building. Forget it! I'll just check Rufus later and see what happened. Although I already know what's going to happen.

 "Dame Csille, it's a good thing you are here. 

Without Lady Lilla, we don't know what to do here. It's a good thing Miss Mairenn is here to supervise us, or else all of us will definitely don't know how to deal with the nobles."

 I look at Laureen. She's one of my employees in the Foundation. "Apologies, Laureen. I was just busy with things that I couldn't be here. But don't worry, I will be back tomorrow. I'll just need to do something tonight. But you have mentioned that Mairenn is here today. I thought she would be taking a day off today?"

 Laureen shakes her head. "No, Dame Csille. After knowing that you won't be able to work today, she didn't continue her day off. She knows we can't work without anyone supervising us. That's why she decided to move her day off tomorrow."

 I nod my head. I should be thanking Mairenn then. She is really concerned about the Foundation and the employees. I definitely need to reward her after settling things between the main three characters.

 "I see." I look at the documents in her hands. "What's that? Another documents I need to work on?"

 Laureen looks at the documents in her hands and puts them on my table, which is already full of documents. "Apologies, Dame Csille. I was just happy to see you here that I forgot about this. Yes, these are the urgent documents that you need to work on today. However, are you sure you still want to work?" Laureen looks at the clock. "It's already three in the afternoon. Can you still work?"

 I nod my head. I worked until evening before. How can I still not work? "Don't worry. I can handle this. I'll just send back the documents once I finish this."

 I look at the documents on my table. If I will be working on the urgent documents, I can finish this in three to four hours. I look at the clock hanging on the wall and sigh. I'll probably check Rufus once I finish this.

 "If there is nothing else, I'll be excusing myself, Dame Csille. If you need anything, just call anyone."

 I nod my head and start to work on the documents. Although I can finish all the urgent documents this afternoon, I still want to finish this as fast as possible. I'm worried about Rufus, but I know I cannot go and check him because he is still probably looking for a chance to ask Princess Paislee for dinner.

 "Oh, Dame, if there is someone looking for you, should send them to your office?"

 I shake my head. I need to finish this immediately. Where would I find time to entertain those people? I know that most of the people who want to see me are nobles that want to form a connection with Csille. After all, Csille is a Lauretré and the future Queen. How can they let this chance pass?

 "Please don't. Tell them I will be here tomorrow, and if they want to talk to me, then they need to return tomorrow. Also, please tell everyone that if it's not urgent, then don't disturb me."

 "I understand, Dame. I'll be going then."

 I just wave my hands at her and continue my work. After finishing one document, I look at the remaining urgent documents that are piled up on my table.

 I need to finish this so the Foundation can start helping people with urgent needs. I also need to finish this so my work wouldn't pile up. I still have a couple of weeks of piled up work that I haven't started. I don't want to add on that anymore.

 I heave a sigh. Another long and hectic afternoon for the villainess again.

________________________________

 I stretched my arms after finishing the last urgent documents on my table. "That was tiring." I looked at the clock and smiled when I noticed that I still had enough time. 

 The dinner date will start at six in the evening, and it's just five in the evening. I still have an hour to refresh myself and go to the restaurant. 

 I want to be with Rufus tonight.

 After being rejected by Princess Paislee, he will go to the restaurant to drown himself with alcohol, and I want to be there for him. 

 I take the urgent documents and send them to Laureen, so they start processing the help those people need. 

 "You already finished all of these?" Laureen looked at the pile of documents on her table. Disbelief was clearly visible on her face. 

 I just smile and tap her shoulder. "Can you please tell Mairenn that she can have her day off tomorrow. I'll be workout tomorrow, so she doesn't need to worry about who'll supervise the Foundation."

 Laureen nods her head. I say a few things to my employees before I leave the Foundation. The coachman immediately gets out of the carriage when he sees me.

 "Are we going home now, Dame Csille?"

 I shake my head at him. "No, please take me to the garden restaurant that I've visited this morning."

 The coachman looked at me, but he didn't ask anything. He just maneuvered the carriage to the garden restaurant. He is probably confused why I would like to go to the garden restaurant at a time like this.

 In just a few minutes, the carriage stops in front of the restaurant. I look at the coachman who opens the door for me. "You can go home now after you dropped me here."

 "But Miss, the Count will not like it if I—"

 I raised my hand to stop him from talking. "Don't worry about my Father. I'll deal with him. Just follow my instructions. I don't want to see the carriage around here, or else I will ask my Father to fire you."

 The coachman nods his head and excuses himself. I look at the carriage, which is now on its way back to the house. 

 I don't really want to be mean to him, but I need to make sure that no one will see Rufus here. I don't want people to know what will happen tonight.

 "Dame Csille.."

 I look at the waitress standing at the entrance. "Is everything prepared here? How about the people? Are you sure no one is left behind?"

 The waitress bows her head. "Everything is prepared already, Dame Csille. It is only waiting for you, and I also ensure no one is here so you can be assured that you have this place for yourselves."

 I nod my head and inspect the inside of the restaurant. I look at the waitress behind me. "It's good. You can now leave. Thank you for your good job."

 The waitress bows her head at me before she excuses herself. I then find a perfect place to hide, so when Rufus comes here. I can just act that I just check on him.

 I hide behind a big bush and wait for Rufus' arrival. However, I didn't expect what I am seeing right now.

 It's Rufus….
