The Female Lead Raised The Villain

Reunion with Two Men (3)

She turned her head and looked at Arthur. Looking at the smile on her face, she thought the cause was Arthur. When she saw such an expression, she felt repulsion for no reason.

“Well, this is work too.”

She used to shrug her shoulders and told them to proceed. A smile spread around her mouth when she saw Arthur’s face crack. After all the meetings, she got up and headed to the office.

“You don’t have to do anything you don’t like.”

“Is it me? You speak as if you know my heart.”

“…….”

As she looked forward without glancing at Arthur, he came close to her as if nervous and walked with her.

“Can’t you do anything else?”

“What do you mean?”

She could see his expression when she looked to the side, slightly biting her lips and drooling. Arthur’s face, which was crumpled, was quite worth seeing.

“…… How to get mad at me.”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about, but the Grand Duke is full of pride when I look closely.”

She thought everything he does is related to her, so isn’t this serious?

Smirking. She, leaving Arthur standing blankly, moved forward after smiling.

Her head was pounding during the upcoming banquet. Looking at the attendance list of the royal family, it seems that they have decided. When does it end with 10 people?

Perhaps because it was her birthday banquet, the maids focused on dressing up as if they were putting their lives or death into it. Accessories that were so heavy that she was fed up with colorful dresses remained today. The boring time always made her numb.

As everything she thought she would get used to began to get used to, it would turn into boredom.

“Your Majesty, I hear that the princes present are outstanding.”

“Really?”

When she looked in the mirror as if she was not interested in her insensitive voice, the maid stomped her feet as if she were frustrated. The Empress’ seat could not be left empty continuously.

“If you are not going to make Arthur the empress, why don’t you break your engagement?”

The chancellor, who couldn’t see it, helped her with a word. His voice, which was full of muffled tones, blew her away slightly. The prime minister accepts her gaze without moving.

He smiled with his lips slightly raised to see how she expected him to come out.

“Prime Minister, don’t you already know?”

“I have no idea what your Majesty means.”

She snorted and waved her hand at the tone and attitude of relaxation. She was the one who lost even if she fought with him.

“The Empress’s seat has already been decided, and it’s just not the time yet.”

She still wants to punish him and she doesn’t want to forgive him so easily. In addition, not breaking up her engagement with Arthur was intended to prevent him from daring to covet the position of empress in other countries.

She still hasn’t forgotten what Carl said. She still remembers what he said that she should forgive him and be happy.

‘Forgiveness…’

It’s easy to say.

“How long are you going to punish the Grand Duke?”

“What? Why do you ask when you know?”

As expected, the Prime Minister spoke in a way that knew all the situations. Anyone who has watched from the side will question the way she treats Arthur.

It’s a relationship in which her fiancée doesn’t even serve as an empress, and she doesn’t even give him proper attention.

It’s a strange relationship that leaves him by her side but is not given away.

“The nobles began to speak little by little.”

“That’s why he’s pretending to be a fiancé externally.”

“It seems to be bothering everyone.”

“It’s up to me. When to bring in the empress, and who to bring in.”

At her firm words, the Prime Minister closed his mouth again. This was because he knew well that it was useless to keep talking anyway.

“Do I really need an Empress?”

“Your Majesty!”

The prime minister screamed as he narrowed his forehead. It was not in the right order for her to leave the position of the Empress vacant and put her consort first. It was not until she saw him angry that she smiled and hugged her chin.

“So even if I told you not to provoke me.”

The ladies quietly noticed and helped with the dress. Soon after, the banquet time came.

The first dance was with Arthur. She moved her feet to the music, facing his gaze that gently grabbed her hand. She stepped on his foot and looked surprised as if it were a mistake.

“Oh, no. I should have stepped harder.”

“You can step on my foot at any time. But….”

Arthur turned her body around and leaned back. He approached her with a close face and whispers in her ears.

“Don’t trample on my heart.”

“Aren’t you ashamed?”

Arthur raised her body with a smile at her words. As the music ended, he kissed the back of her hand and talked quietly.

“Princes of other countries don’t know everything about you.”

Arthur, who looks arrogant as if he knows everything about her, glanced around and strengthened his lips.

He is bound to be conscious of others. As if proving that her relationship with him was not twisted, he was relaxed and confident in his actions.

She closed her mouth when she saw Arthur spitting out his jaw.

As the music changed, she approached the princes one by one and began to ask for dance. As the maids said, the princes were all dazzling in appearance.

“I see His Majesty of the Arpen Empire.”

Prince Persen of the Kingdom of Vladion. In terms of the order of the kingdom of Vladion, he was third. With a cute face, he continued to talk with a smile.

“It’s an honor to meet you this close.”

“You must have come from far away, so I hope you have a good time.”

“Oh, Don’t you like me?”

He was a pretty bold prince. When he asked her openly, she looked at his face in silence. She thought he’s just 20 years old. She was about to get fed up again and burst out laughing.
