Why Did I Become the Villainess?

Chapter 326 – Jealousy (2)

  The waiter bows his head before he leaves the room. Prince Joachim rented a private room for this lunch, and the waiter had just finished delivering our orders.

 Princess Paislee smiles awkwardly at me. She probably noticed the awkward atmosphere. Prince Fraser looks like he was being forced with this lunch, and Brother Pascal looks like he was anxious with Prince Fraser. The atmosphere definitely screams awkwardness. Even Princess Paislee looks awkward, probably because of the way I am smiling and talking to her. 

 "Why don't we all dig in?" Princess Paislee said while smiling awkwardly at us. 

 I flash my sweet smile at her, ensuring that I am extra sweet with my smile. The kind of smile that will melt other men's hearts. 

 I raised my hand and tried to touch the fork that Princess Paislee was using. She is about to give Prince Fraser some pasta, but because I have tried holding the fork she is holding, my hand is lying on top of hers. I let it linger for a couple of seconds before I immediately take it back. 

  "I'm sorry. I was just famished, and I didn't know you'll pick up the fork. I hope you didn't mind." I try to make myself look like I'm really embarrassed about what happened. I even make sure to avoid her eyes to make it more believable.

 Then I inconspicuously look at Prince Fraser, and I smile when I see how red his face is due to anger. 

 This is fun. I didn't expect a day like this would come. To see Prince Fraser getting worked up because someone is seducing his love. 

 Was it fun, your highness? Was it fun seeing someone flirting with Princess Paislee? Are you jealous? Now you understand how Csille feels every time there is someone flirting with you. How is it? Do you like the feeling?

 I want to say those words in front of Prince Fraser, but I know I cannot do that. I cannot let anyone know that I am well aware of the feelings he had for Princess Paislee, a.k.a. Sir Farren.

 Princess Paislee shakes her head and smiles awkwardly at me. "I understand, Dame Csille. I know you didn't mean that." She then looks at my empty plate and the bowl of pasta in her hand. "If you want, you can have the pasta first." Then she offers the bowl of pasta to me.

 I smile sweetly at her. I was about to take the fork, but then I acted like my hand was in pain. I even whine to make my act believable. 

 Princess Paislee immediately looks at me anxiously. "Dame Csille? Are you okay? What's wrong?" She even takes my hand and inspects it. 

 I winced in pain when Princess Paislee tried to put pressure on my finger. "It hurts. Can you please put pasta on my plate? My hand is hurting right now."

 Prince Fraser, who has been gritting his teeth, take my hand that Princess Paislee is holding and puts pressure on it. I almost smile when I see how furious he is right now.

 I didn't expect it would be this fun to see Prince Fraser furious, not because of what I did but because he is jealous. 

  "Where does it hurt? Here?" He then put pressure on my finger, and I almost screamed in pain when I felt how much pressure he was putting.

 I tried my best to still smile at him, although I really want to scold him right now. 

 Does this guy want to break my fingers? If he continue doing that, I'm afraid my fingers will definitely be in pain at the end of this day. 

 I laugh at Prince Fraser and try my best to take it out. "Thank you, your highness. My hand is okay now." I fake a smile, although I really want to glare at him right now.

 Then I look at Princess Paislee, who is still holding the bowl of pasta. "Sir Farren, is it okay for you to put some pasta on my plate? My hand is still aching."

 Princess Paislee smiles awkwardly at me for a couple of seconds before she takes the bowl of pasta. She is about to put pasta on my plate when Prince Fraser takes the bowl of pasta from her hand.

 I raise my eyebrow and look at Prince Fraser. I almost laugh when I see his face. He is trying his best to smile at me, but he doesn't realize that instead of smiling, his expression looks like he is constipated. 

  If I am not with other people, I would probably burst out laughing now. He looks ugly. I don't understand how Princess Paislee and Brother Pascal can't see how his face looks like right now. Or maybe they are just pretending they don't see anything because it will be rude to make fun of a royalty.

 Prince Fraser looks at Princess Paislee, and the happiness I feel just now suddenly vanishes when I see the affection in Prince Fraser's eyes. 

  "Let me do that. I am, after all, Dame Csille's fiancé. I also don't think it will be appropriate if someone sees you doing that. I don't want another issue not just to me but also to anyone besides me."

  He then takes the bowl of pasta from Princess Paislee's hand. Even though his words might sound like he doesn't like anyone doing sweet things for me, I can definitely hear that he is not threatening Princess Paislee. In fact, he sounded more concerned about Princess Paislee's reputation than mine.

 I look at Princess Paislee. Trying to see if she can see the way Prince Fraser is looking at her, but it seems like she is oblivious to what is happening. She just continue eating her meal while Prince Fraser is putting pasta on my plate.

  After putting pasta on my plate, Prince Fraser continues eating his meal in peace. He only responds if Princess Paislee is asking him a question. 

 I heave a sigh and eat my meal in peace too. I suddenly don't feel the mood to tease Prince Fraser now.

 I was eating my meal in peace when I felt someone tug my hand. I look down and find Brother Pascal gently tugging my hand. He then leans a little towards me, enough for me to hear what he wants to say.

 "Csille, what are you doing? We already force ourselves to this meal, but then you keep provoking Prince Fraser? You know he has a temper, right? Are you really looking for an argument?"

 I look at Brother Pascal and shake my head. I am not dumb to argue with Prince Fraser. I just want to take this chance and tease him a little. After all, it's not every day that you'll get a chance like this. Also, I couldn't help but find jealous Prince Fraser as cute. Although he looks like a lion who is about to bite his prey earlier.

 I look at Prince Fraser. He is currently whispering something to Princess Paislee. He seems okay now. Gone the furious Prince Fraser earlier.

 He is a really different person when he is with Princess Paislee. A total opposite when he is with Csille.

 I heave a sigh. I thought I'll be having fun for today, but why do I end up feeling down now? Why did things turn out to be like this? 

 I regret it now. I regret forcing my way to have lunch with them. Now I didn't have any choice but to watch Prince Fraser talk to Princess Paislee. 

 It's like a reminder to me that in this story, I will never be the main lead. 

________________________________

  Princess Paislee looks back at us. We just finished eating our lunch, and we are now on our way to our respective carriages.

 "Dame Csille, Doctor Pascal, thank you for joining our lunch. I'm sure his highness, Prince Fraser, had fun having lunch with the two of you."

 I almost rolled my eyes when I heard what she said. Had fun? Is she kidding me? After scolding her, Prince Fraser has spoken a few words to us. He only speaks to Princess Paislee and will only talk to us if needed. So, where does the fun come from? 

 Although I really want to be blunt with Princess Paislee, I cannot do that. I just smile sweetly at her. I even blink my eyes in a flirting way.

 This Prince Fraser ignore Brother Pascal and me the whole meal. How can I let things end like this? I will make sure he becomes furious again.

 To hell with his anger! It's as if he can do something to me today. Not with Princess Paislee's presence. So, even if he got enraged with jealousy, I know he cannot do anything to me. 

 I walk towards Princess Paislee and try to cling to her arms, but before I can touch her arms, someone blocks Princess Paislee from me. I look back and find Prince Fraser looking at me with his serious expression. He then wraps my hand around his arms. 

 I look back at him, confused about what is happening. How come I end up wrapping my hand to his arms instead of Princess Paislee? This is not what is supposed to happen.

 I tried to take my hand, but Prince Fraser stopped my hand. Then he leans his head towards my ears. "I don't know why you are doing this, but this is what you get from making me furious."

 He then looks at Brother Pascal, who is also dumbfounded by what is happening. "Doctor Pascal, I hope you don't mind if I will borrow Dame Csille for today. Don't worry. I will make sure to send her to her Foundation safe and sound."

 I immediately looked at Prince Fraser when I heard what he said. What? What is happening, and what does he mean he will borrow me from Brother Pascal? Does it mean I will have a chance to have a conversation with him? 

 No! No! I have the courage to tease him because I know after lunch, we will part ways. However, why did things escalate this way? 

 This cannot be! I don't want to be with Prince Fraser. I'll be doomed if Brother Pascal agrees with it. After the teasing I did to him today? I'm sure he wouldn't let me off easily. So, no! I still want to live.

 I look at Brother Pascal, and I inconspicuously shake my head. 

 Please, Brother. Please save me from this Prince. I'll be doomed if you agree with his request.

 Brother Pascal stares at Prince Fraser for a couple of seconds before he shakes his head. "Apologies, Prince Fraser, but we have a prior schedule today. We really don't want to decline your offer. However, our schedule for today is something we couldn't miss. So, I hope you can understand us and wouldn't take it against us."

 I almost want to rush to Brother Pascal's side and give him a hug because of what he said. The prior schedule he is talking about is a lie. He just arrived in the capital, so how can we schedule things immediately.

 I'm sure he only said that because he is still doubtful of Prince Fraser. After all, Prince Fraser once disrespects Csille in front of everyone. He was just probably scared that Prince Fraser would repeat that.

 I anxiously look at Prince Fraser and try to see what his reaction will be. I tried to take my hand away from him, but he still wouldn't let it go. 

 So, I have no choice but to tug his hand because he is just looking at Brother Pascal. "Your highness, I'm sorry, but as much as I want to spend time with you, we still have things to do today. Aside from the prior schedule Brother Pascal and I have. I still have a lot of things to do in the Foundation. So, I hope you can understand it."

 Prince Fraser looks at me with his blank expression. I don't know if he is mad at me. He just stares at me for a couple of seconds before he lets go of my arms. 

 I sighed in relief when he did that. I thought I would have no choice and face him today. It's a good thing, Brother Pascal immediately finds an excuse.

  "If that's the case. You can go."

 After Prince Fraser said those words, I instantly rushed to Brother Pascal and dragged him away from Prince Fraser. I only breathe properly when the carriage starts to move away from the restaurant.

  "I told you. You shouldn't provoke Prince Fraser if you don't want to face his wrath."

  I look at Brother Pascal and pout. I have learned my lesson now.. If I tease him next time, I will make sure I have an escape plan.
