My Villain Fiancée is Interfering With My Flowery Path - Chapter 17

Chapter 17

‘Definitely an exile.’

My bright future lies only in Sage! Callist? They can do whatever they want!

Thisbe was full of thoughts to leave right away, but Almas did not know Thisbe’s thoughts.

Thanks to this, Thisbe’s calm and benevolent smile felt like she was just saying that to conceal her real thoughts.

How can I not think of the word saint when I see that?

It was only then that Almas realized that Thisbe was not just a child.

Without even realizing it, Thisbe was already this tall.

Just as he hoped when he first invited Thisbe’s tutor, she would be able to win everyone’s envy even without being the child of the oracle.

‘I’ve always seen you as a kid. When is it that you became this big?’

Almas felt the tip of his nose tingling.

If it had been someone else, I would have said, “Yes, you’re all grown up! I will no longer try to protect you like a child!”

And that was exactly what Thisbe wanted.

Unfortunately, however, the opponent was Almas, who had lived as a soldier all his life.

‘I was like that, too. At that age, I thought I was all grown up and took the lead because I thought I didn’t need help.’

However, as a result, only wounds and loneliness increased.

Almas knew it well from his long experience.

‘Even if you’re all grown up, you’ll still need someone behind you.’

Don’t worry, this grandfather will firmly support you.

Almas once again vowed that he could not see his son’s daughter and his only granddaughter hurt.

‘I’ve been thinking a lot about what to do with Thisbe, but now that I’ve made this decision…’

My granddaughter, I will never let you go!

It was literally a moment when different dreams crossed.

Even at this moment, Almas’ granddaughter was only thinking of leaving this boring place.

‘I’ve been preparing so much for my escape, so I can’t just get caught up here.’

Malone, you think it would be hard for me to escape?

You don’t know anything!

Thisbe laughed confidently inside.

‘Of course, my grandfather is not just cold-blooded, so he may be bothered.’

Because there is also the public eye to take into consideration.

If that bothers him, it’s enough if I step up and get rid of the thorn in his mind.

Look at the face of the relieved grandfather who seems to have lost his aching tooth.

I’m sure my grandfather was hoping for this ending, too.

Thisbe is sure of it.

‘He doesn’t really care about me anyway.’

At this rate, Almas took care of his granddaughter until the end and even managed to save his face by reluctantly enrolling Estelle to the Callist family as a saint.

Maybe it came out this hard for that.

Now Almas can say that he will give Estelle the name of Callist reluctantly.

“I get it Thisble. If you say so, I will give Miss Iller the name of the Callist.”

Yes, like this.

“That’s a wise judgment, my lord!”

Count Gillette welcomed and replied. As soon as Thisbe tried to also add a positive word to it, Almas continued.

“Don’t be prematurely pleased, Count. The name of the Callist I will allow is ‘De Callist’.”

The expressions of everyone standing at the words suddenly hardened.

De Callist.

To interpret it, it means ‘of Callist’ or ‘by Callist’.

This is what it means to attach this to one’s name.

“The awarding of the name of Callist was a process to protect the young lady Iller, but nothing more than that can be allowed.”

It means that Estelle is under the name of Callist, but is not accepted as a member of Callist.

If you need a justification, I will give my name, but I still have no intention of enlisting the lady to the family register.

Thisbe’s eyes narrowed slightly.

‘Is there anything else he’s worrying about?’

This was out of the question.

According to Thisbe’s original plan, Almas will reluctantly award Estelle the name of the Callist, and Estelle would join Callist by driving this momentum.

And when that time comes, she will leave as it is and go for her exile.

‘But De Callist. ‘

Of course, I was able to maintain the original story as it is.

It was not in vain that she brought Estelle.

‘It’s important that Estelle puts the name of Callist and the public’s attention goes from me to Estelle.’

However, it is a little worrisome that it has already begun to deviate little by little.

Is her escape plan really going to be okay?

‘It’s not like grandfather won’t let Estelle enter the family like this, right?’

No way.

It’s not going to happen.

Unless Almas suddenly shows infinite affection for Thisbe.

No, even that’s not enough.

Unless Estelle herself refuses to join the family!

That won’t happen.

‘It’s an assumption that doesn’t make sense in the first place.’

Thisbe snorted inside and cleared her head of a brief doubt.

So, the scene passed by without anyone noticing.

But there was one thing that Thisbe missed.

｡+.｡☆ﾟ:;｡+ﾟ ☆*ﾟ¨ﾟﾟ･*:..ﾞ

‘If I become a Callist, I’ll take the position of a princess.’

Just one step behind her, the one who had not taken her eyes off Thisbe for a single moment.

It was Estelle.

Much has changed since Estelle was found to be a real saint.

Ironically, however, if there’s anyone who didn’t feel the change the most, it would be Estelle.

Because

‘Nothing has changed for me.’

Of course, the gate is crowded with visitors to Count Gillette’s house where Estelle is staying.

And the invitations she received would be enough to make a book.

-For the time being, refrain from going out. You need to be careful not to abuse your identity.

For this reason, Estelle was stuck at home without opening any invitation once.

In that sense, Estelle waited more for her meeting with Thisbe today.

It’s been a while since I went out.

Is that why?

‘I was just excited, but I had no idea what was going on with the princess.’

When I learned of the whole situation, my head became cold as if I had been hit by cold water.

I wouldn’t have been so excited if I had known that she would take away Thisbe’s place.

“The princess was so kind to me.”

I can’t believe she actually tried to take away Thisbe’s place.

I felt like an ungrateful and shameless person.

‘I can’t do that.’

Estelle recalled Thisbe, who held her hand.

The expression that knew that her actions would strangle her, but she was not shaken at all.

– Estelle, you’re a saint. It’s time for you to get the place you deserve.

– Then what about you, princess?

– I’ll find the right place for me, too. Don’t worry about me.

Thisbe said. It’s just that everything goes in a rational way.

How could that have happened?

‘If it were me, I would have hated myself so much.’

Estelle looked down at her hand. Now I have empty hands, but I still remember holding hands with Thisbe.

When I think of that time, I still felt a little strange and her heart pounding.

Estelle recalled that moment for a while and grabbed her hand tightly.

‘I’ll help her!’

As such, Thisbe’s escape plan was quietly going awry without anyone noticing.

｡+.｡☆ﾟ:;｡+ﾟ ☆*ﾟ¨ﾟﾟ･*:..ﾞ

Meanwhile

‘Everything will go back to normal now.’

Thisbe was smiling proud without knowing anything.

A while ago, Count Gillette and Estelle went to talk to Duke Callist, and only then did Thisbe escape the disturbance.

‘I didn’t do much, but I feel tired.’

She returned to the room with a message so that when the maid who went to the town with the money she gave returned, she could match the words that she went out with her.

I had to finish my schedule because I was caught up in a fuss.

‘There are only two tasks.’

Making future plans with Malone.

And reading the magic book.

First of all, it was more important to finish her plans with Malone, so I sat at my desk thinking that I should do it first, but there was something that caught Thisbe’s eye.

“Sor?”

That is, the letter that was written on the newsletter on the desk.
