ICTV - Chapter 91
I change The Villain
"Miss, calm down, please!"
"How can I calm down in this situation!"
The pen I cherished so much fell to the floor. The man hurriedly grabbed his pen and chased after Violet, but Violet just kept walking without hesitation.
"So I told you to act like a brat... !"
Violet ruffled her long hair roughly.
"That girl and this guy. Why can't they all care about themselves? Why don't you know what's really important?"
"Miss...."
Today, Violet will transform that guy into a selfish person. She had a strong feeling that if this continued, he would lose something precious again. That is absolutely unacceptable.
Violet stormed into Credrian Mansion without hiding her presence at all. The servants looked at Violet in surprise.
"Where is Ed!"
"Miss Violet...?!"
"Oh my God, so late at this hour!"
Violet shouted again.
"Where is Ed?
The servants, sensing that Violet had completely lost their senses, hurriedly shouted.
"Bah, stay in his room. In his room!"
Violet ran up the stairs, holding the hem of her cumbersome dress.
"Edgar!"
Bang.
Violet roughly opened Edgar's door. Edgar was sitting on the bed with his back to Violet. Edgar's back in the moonlight looked as light as dust but was as eerie as a shadow.
"Edgar. I heard you were beaten by that scumbag!"
Edgar still turned his back on Violet and said nothing. Violet walked up to Edgar and grabbed his shoulder.
"I won't leave you alone any longer! Stop counseling people!"
Edgar slowly looked up at Violet. Edgar's face had become even more gaunt. Violet's eyes grew hot.
"Change the world? How are you going to change the world on your own? A fool who can't even protect himself and doesn't even know what he likes!"
"..."
Her emotions became increasingly Intense. Her fingers were trembling. She began to see that the child who had silently embraced everything overlapped with Edgar.
If she had been more perceptive back then, if she had been more proactive, something might have changed.
Violet could no longer control herself.
"I mean, be a little selfish for your own good! No matter how right you act!"
Violet clenched her fists and clenched her neck until it hurt.
"That proud Harmonia will never grant your wish!!"
Ah.
Edgar, who was still fixated on the window, let out an unintelligible sound.
Violet shouted again.
"If you live a good life, you will definitely be blessed? Bad people will be punished someday? In this world, if you dedicate yourself, you will become dedicated! If one of you acts more selfishly, it won't be a big problem!"
"That's right. You are right."
"So stop devoting yourself any more...! What?"
"I said you were right."
Edgar slowly turned his head.
"You know, Violet."
Violet almost collapsed on the spot. Edgar was smiling the brightest smile she had ever seen.
"Violet."
Edgar got up. Edgar was wearing the baggy beige robe he wore to bed, leaving his neck exposed. There was a clear red handprint on his neck.
But it didn't catch her eye at all. She didn't even feel creepy. Because there was something truly creepy about it.
Violet called his name, unable to believe her own eyes.
"Edgar?"
"Yes, Violet."
Edgar responded kindly and got up from the bed. The two red eyes, filled with something unknown, but clearly eerie, got closer and closer to Violet.
"Why did you suddenly become quiet, Violet?"
Edgar tilted his head.
"Just a few seconds ago, you were getting really angry for me, weren't you?"
"...Edgar, you."
Edgar sighed.
"I was happy on the inside, but you're not getting any more angry."
"..."
"Well, it's okay. Please don't get angry anymore."
Violet couldn't say anything more. Because it felt instinctive. That the current Edgar is not in his right mind.
"Because it was my fault today."
Edgar had the face of a man in love, as he had shown at the festival. And the party Edgar attended today
Violet's arms began to shake.
"Violet, how are you? It has become the situation you so desperately wanted."
The engagement ceremony of Duke Serenity and Lady Pale.
Violet let out a sigh.
"The situation I wanted?"
"Yes. You certainly did."
She hopes he has a special love. She wants him to act selfishly.
As Edgar continued, Violet's hands began to tremble more violently.
"But, but..."
The image of Edgar suffering even after falling in love flashed before her eyes. At the time, she thought he was just confused.
She thought it was natural for her to do that since the feelings she thought had nothing to do with her all of her life suddenly came to her one day.
But she never imagined that it was because he fell in love with a woman who already had a partner.
"Violet. You never know. How grateful I am to you now."
Edgar's hand holding Violet's hand gained strength.
"You really were the only one. The person who said that to me."
"You couldn't have been beaten by Duke Serenity..."
"Yes. I confessed my feelings to Lady Pale."
No, probably not. Violet denied reality. It's not like Edgar to do this. He must have misunderstood the situation or is just playing a prank on himself.
Violet, who obviously wanted Edgar to behave in a way that was not like Edgar, ended up thinking that way. But that thought didn't last long.
"If I had known this would happen, I would have told you sooner. I feel so relieved and happy."
This is because Edgar smiled so brightly that Violet couldn't see his eyes. Violet was so scared of this situation that it almost felt like a one-night dream.
Can a person change like this after not seeing each other for a moment?
Could it be that she fell asleep while she was coming to this mansion?
Violet really thought nothing of it, but the warmth she felt from Edgar's hand told me that this was not a dream, but reality.
At that time. a piece of cloud, thick and white like an angel's wings, covered the moon. It got dark everywhere.
But Violet could see. A pair of red eyes that were still shining hazily.
"Violet. I truly love Lady Pale. Lady Pale is the person I wanted."
Anyone could see that he was far from an angel or a savior. The current Edgar was a devil who came down to ruin someone's life by whispering sweet words.
"Just because she's engaged doesn't mean she'll get married, so I'm going to try my best."
Edgar cutely pretended to clap his hands.
"I'm planning to come to the charity party that will be held in two days, so I need to prepare a gift."
Is it possible for someone to become a completely different person after not seeing each other for a moment?
Something suddenly appeared in Violet's confused mind.
'What? Why didn't you apply to the creative writing department?'
After discussing with her parents... Her parents said that if she were to think about her future, it would be better to go to a different department. It was a conversation she had with Ji-hye when she was none other than Da-seo.
Violet's breath caught for a moment. It will definitely happen then.
'Ji-hye. You shouldn't have said it more seriously.'
'Huh?'
'If they knew that you truly wanted to go there, your parents would definitely have given their permission and supported you."
'...'
'Our parents want us to live happily more than anyone else. The more I think about it, the more unfortunate it becomes. What are you going to do by going to a department you don't want?'
She's so frustrating sometimes. She has to be careful about what she says in front of someone who is tired. She was wrong this time too.
Violet collapsed on the floor.
***
A chirping sound was heard. I, who was lying under the blanket, unconsciously tried to turn over and realized that I couldn't move. Belial held her in his arms.
I yawned and closed my eyes. I looked down at Belial's arms. This is the smallest, most cozy prison in the world.
I tried biting his arm as a joke, but still, I didn't move. I yawned once more. Usually, I can sleep for 10 hours without anyone waking me up, but today I couldn't sleep for even 5 hours. Still, it's better than Belial.
I called Belial in a very quiet voice
"Belial."
"Yes, Rose."
I thought Belial was sleeping, but he immediately opened his eyes and answered steadily.
"Did you sleep well?"
"Yes."
"Lie."
I ran my fingers under Belial's eyes.
"Just looking at you, it looks like you haven't slept at all."
"..."
"What did you do when you weren't sleeping?"
Belial bent down and snuggled into my arms. And he spoke in a low voice.
"Staying up all night is something I'm used to."
"I wasn't asking that right now."
"...Yes."
Belial kept his mouth shut and said nothing. I patted Belial's arms, which were still holding me.
"Just lower your arm first."
"Why?"
"Let me put something on. It's a little cold."
"If only I held you tighter."
I said firmly.
"Let me go."
Only then did Belial relax his arms. I stopped to pick up the clothes off the floor. It would be a good idea to wash first.
I turned my head.
"Do you want to shower together?"
"No."
This time Belial spoke firmly. Of course, I thought he would say yes, but I was puzzled but agreed to Belial's next words.
"Aren't you hungry now? I have to eat breakfast."
"Ah.”
I realized I hadn't eaten anything since lunch last night. I had a few glasses of champagne, but that doesn't even count as food.
"If we wash together, it will take at least three hours. So let's wash separately now."
After all, Belial knows me too well. I took a bath with my satisfied heart. Meanwhile, Belial washed his body in another bathroom and gave various instructions to the maids. Thanks to this, I was able to receive a luxurious breakfast as soon as I finished my bath.
As soon as I sat down, she stuffed my mouth full of salad with beef. Belial asked, pouring us some juice with his own hands.
"How do you feel? Where are you uncomfortable?"
I shrugged. Belial also pushed a plate of toast with poached eggs and bacon in front of me. I stopped while stuffing toast into my mouth. I quickly swallowed what was in my mouth and looked at Belial.
"Wait."
"Yes, Rose."
"Aren't you the one who needs to eat a lot? You didn't even sleep."
"Hmm?"
Belial tilted his head as if wondering what I was talking about.
"Do I look like I'm having a hard time right now?"
