Beware of the Villainess! - Chapter 2

The fountain pen made a nice pleasant sound against the paper as I tried to write in neat cursive letters.

The man I’m writing to was none other than Ian Vasilos, the crown prince of this empire. He was a young man with golden-black hair and a beautiful appearance. I was engaged to him since I was young, and currently, I am still his fiancé. Our engagement was merely formed due to political reasons.

「Hello, Your Highness, how are you doing? I hope Your Highness has been doing well. Even though summer is coming to an end, the flowers are still blossoming beautifully and the birds are still singing merrily…」

He was the man that ‘Melissa’ loved sincerely.

「Today, I want to tell you the truth.」

I had already written the following sentence a dozen times, but still, I wrote them with great care and sincerity.

「Please break off our engagement.」

Nice! I wrote the word ‘please’ especially beautiful today.

「Since this is very important, I will write it again. I sincerely ask you to break off our engagement. I tried putting up with it, but I can no longer do that. When you sent me flowers, it had the name of another woman written on the card. Please be careful about delivering the wrong gift to the wrong woman. I don’t want to know nor do I care who you spent the night with. Please, let’s break off our engagement. I know that you dislike me, so why are you acting so stubborn? Let’s break off our engagement peacefully. If you really want the backing of a Duke, then you can marry Jake. I will even actively support your marriage with Jake.」

Slash. Slash. Slash.

Oh, I was a little too excited and accidentally wrote the last part down too. Nevertheless, my handwriting was still beautiful, as expected of a Duke’s daughter!

With a proud smile on my face, I folded the letter neatly and handed it over to Yona, my maid. Yona’s expression stiffened slightly when she took the letter from me.

Why did she have an expression on her face? She looked quite surprised that I wrote a letter.

“I thought you’d directly break into the imperial palace and demand the crown prince to break off your engagement.”

I pretended not to hear the arrogant maid’s accusations.

He was the crown prince and I am merely the daughter of a Duke. I needed him to annul our engagement because I can’t simply annul the engagement myself. If he refused to annul our engagement, then I will have to resort to even more drastic methods. The maid eventually left to deliver the letter.

I worked hard.

1 p.m.

I went on a walk with the only thing I love in this world.

“Liev, the weather is nice today, isn’t it?”

“Woof!”

Haha, our Liev was a very kind dog.

Liev was a giant dog with a dark and muscular body. He was the size of an adult male when he stood on his hind legs. He was also my cute son and I love him so much, but he wasn’t the brightest dog.

“Oh, Liev! How can we live in such a harsh and dangerous world when we are so gentle and kind…?”

Liev shook his head gently and stuck out its tongue as he started to pant; his huge tail wagged playfully behind him.

“Let’s do some special training with me today.”

I threw the frisbee in my hand gracefully over two and a half laps away, and then, the disk landed with a thump.

In my previous life, I had been able to throw the frisbee over 20 meters.

“Bring it back to me.”
