The Villainess Wants To Live Quietly



It is clear that the Duke has made a huge misunderstanding.

Otherwise, this conclusion cannot be reached!

Rosenia Pierre has always refused the Duke's letters requesting a meeting.

Wasn't that something that caught his interest and changed his appearance and approached him?

But Dominic was a man who valued his life.

If he says this as it is, only he will get angry...

Instead of speaking his thoughts directly, he expressed them moderately and roundly.

"It seems like you had a great time with Lady Pierre today."

"I did."

Calix nodded slowly.

His time with Rosenia was enjoyable. So much so that he couldn't be more satisfied.

If there's one thing he regrets, it's that he couldn't sign the first contract with her as his true self.

Bur Calix understood.

The fact that Rosenia welcomed Dominic over Calix was probably an unavoidable choice as the injured leader of Pierre's upper division. Rather, she wouldn't have been disappointed if she had just taken it easy and joined hands with 'Calix AItemir', the owner of a rival company.

That means that she is a person of only that caliber.

'I was a little embarrassed when I lied and said it wasn't at the top...'

Now that he thinks about it, he actually wants to give extra points for acting cautiously.

"Wouldn't it be even more enjoyable to win if your opponent is great?"

He also liked the bold ambition of defeating Alter Company someday. Appropriate winning spirit helps grow your business.

Of course, the child she will raise will not be Pierre, but Alter. Calix thought of Rosenia, who was very happy after the contract was signed.

He was so nervous until he took out the contract. When he signed, her expression became brighter than ever. 

'There was a pretty cute corner.'

Calix slightly raised the corners of his mouth. It was a smile that even he didn't recognize.

"Great. The Duke is an excellent actor, so you won't get caught. Besides, he said that the Lady is already in love with it, so I don't think it will be difficult." 

It would be nice if he could elaborate on how he had such a good time.

Dominic said as if he was giving up, looking at Calix who closed his mouth and smiled alone.

Anyway, once his Master made up his mind, he never gave up, so it was okay to just talk to him.

He'll take care of it.

Instead, he decided to stick to his main job.

"Duke."

Dominic handed out a letter to Calix. Calix raised his eyebrows.

Dominic answered the question in his eyes as to what this was. 

"This is an invitation from the Duke of Montrose, the contents are..."

"I guess it means inviting me to the Princess's birthday banquet."

Calix said harshly.

Hasn't Princess Montrose been talking about this for a month now? 

And his prediction was correct. When he opened the envelope, he saw a carefully written letter. The handwriting was a bit sloppy, but it looked like the Princess had written it herself. 

Anyway. He already promised to attend. 

Calix only checked the date and time in the letter and waved his hand.

"Say I will attend." 

"Then the reply is... Have you always been amazed?

"Just use it appropriately."

"Yes, I understand."

Dominic groaned internally.

Today too, all the bad things were his fault.

***

A lot has changed for me since Nathaniel was driven out to the territory.

"The stairs are high. Be careful, Lady."

A tall man politely extended his hand to me in front of the carriage. He was the escort driver assigned to me by my father after the chandelier crash occurred at the top.

Since an unfortunate accident occurred, an escort may be provided.

However, this knight who reached out to me now was a talented person who received quite good reviews among the Pierre family's knights.

At first glance, I heard that he came here voluntarily.

" Is that it?"

The carriage prepared for my outings is the next best thing to the one my father rides in.

I didn't specifically request this arrival. The driver brought it to this carriage on his own.

This was a really small yet big change.

"Thank you."

I felt satisfied and was escorted by the other person.

Then I got into the carriage as naturally as if these benefits had been mine from the beginning. When I got into the carriage, the door closed.

Soon the carriage, which was so comfortable to ride, moved smoothly and started to leave.

I snorted softly as I looked outside through the half-opened window. 

"Good."

There may be many reasons why people's attitudes have changed.

First of all, the first reason would be that Nathaniel left the capital and was driven out to the territory. 

"The second reason would be that the gift I packed was delivered safely."

Just yesterday, the imperial delegation organized for the wedding of Princess Penelope departed for the Kingdom of Borsha.

It was loaded with gift packages that I had carefully prepared.

Since I had a contract with the Princess, there was no way the gift I had prepared would be rejected, but I still did my best to prepare it. We paid careful attention to the details, checking on-site until the end to make sure we had not missed anything. 

Particular attention was paid to ensuring that the schedule was not delayed. Because there wasn't much time left until the wedding, the schedule was tight.

The pride and emotion I felt watching the delegation leave after completing preparations was probably something I would never forget.

And it seems that my actions have brought about a change in people's thinking. I can see that his attitude toward me is changing little by little.

"As expected, everything is going well without Nathaniel."

There's only one person missing, but things are going so smoothly, right?

Good thing I kicked him out.

While I was preparing the Princess's gift, my father was eager to have Nathaniel's sins forgiven.

Even though he scolded him for causing a major accident, he was probably dying of worry for his son. It wasn't particularly surprising as it was expected.

"Your Highness the Princess. Have you ever received the gift we prepared?"

Day after day, my father tried to cheer the Princess up by sending her gifts. It seemed like gifts were being sent not only to the Princess but also to the Empress and the Emperor.

And every time that happened, Princess Penelope looked coldly at the presented gift and then immediately ignored it.

It's a waste to even give a moment's attention to this kind of garbage.

Thanks to her, my father must have been very anxious. 

"We have arrived, miss."

As I looked at the scenery outside the window, the carriage quickly arrived at its destination. The place I headed to today was not the top of Pierre.

It came out as something a little more personal than that.

Hmm. but since it is related to Mr. Dominic, does it mean that it is a top-level business?

Hey, whatever.

Rattle.

As I opened the door to the store and entered, the bell hanging on the top of the door rang with a clear sound. A young man who was putting a navy blue cloth on a Gabon mannequin looked up at the sound of a bell.

He had a long tape measure draped over his shoulder, and he gave me the impression of a designer with a firm opinion.

I said as I walked inside.

"This is the capital's most famous men's dressmaker, right?"

When it comes to women's wear, it's Lecelloman, and when it comes to men's wear, it's Dentsu. I asked the secretary, Annie, and she immediately recommended this place.

There was definitely a luxurious atmosphere from the interior.

The scent that gently spreads throughout the store is also elegant. It looks like a lot of care was put into it.

"Hello. My name is Blanc Dentz. the CEO of Dentsu. How did you get here?"

Dentsu was a place that manufactured and sold custom-made clothes rather than ready-made clothes, so reservations were essential.

Annie says you have to wait a month as standard. But I couldn't wait that long so I came to the store. And Blanc pointed that out as so on as he saw me.

How did you come when you weren't even a guest with a reservation?

However, judging by the fact that he didn't add much to my statement that he was 'the most famous dressmaker in the capital', he seemed to be full of confidence in his own business. "

"I'm here to make a pair of gloves. Plus, a few more things."
