The Extra Will Now Leave The Stage - Chapter 11 – Lawrence Littenverk (1)

Chapter 11 – Lawrence Littenverk (1)

Translator: Lioness

 

‘There was only one way.’

 

As the end of the novel came, she will now disappear and hides from the people involved in the story. It was her plan so she prohibited going outside but an opportunity befell. It was the Crown Princess’s birthday and foreign envoys visits her.

 

A chance to escape the eyes of the Marquis Hamilton and cross over to the Nakran Empire. And Lawrence Littenverk was the one to achieve her plan.

 

“Duke is really the key!”

 

Her lips were shaped into a smile along with a roll on the bed. Those four years she was inside passed through her mind like a kaleidoscope and those suffering was already over. The reason why the Marquis wanted her not going to Nakran empire was unclear but now, there was nothing to worry.

 

I will leave without regret.

“Alice! What the hell have you done!”

 

The Marquis Hamilton burst open the door and entered.

 

“Oh, why are you screaming!”

 

“What the hell did you do that made Sir Lesir leave the Marquis family?”

 

“He left because of me, really?”

 

Alice’s sharp words pricked Marquis Hamilton.

 

“I didn’t say it was because of you.”

 

“Look at that! Was it not because of me?”

 

“Then why did he leave? After escorting you, he said he was leaving the family, but what was the reason if not you?”

 

Alice waved her hand at the Marquis, who widened his eyes and tried to find fault.

 

“Because it was not really me. Go ask Sir Benedict!”

 

“Sir Benedict?”

 

“Yes. He will know better.”

 

The Marquis Hamilton, who looked at Alice suspiciously, sighed.

 

“Did you buy a present?”

 

“I already bought it. Do not worry.”

 

“The Crown Princess said she would only meet you once.”

 

“That would be such an honor.”

 

“Alice!”

 

He yelled at her for being unruly but she didn’t budge.

 

“Father. I know how to do it.”

 

“You do know because you insulted the Crown Princess at the Banquet Hall?”

 

“That’s it, well….”

 

The Marquis glared at Alice, who was hesitant and unable to follow her words, then let out a bigger sigh and left her room. After checking his thumping back, Alice murmured.

He glared at her who couldn’t say her words. After letting out a deep sigh, he left her room and after checking that he really left, she murmureed,

 

“I can handle it on my own, don’t worry.”

 

Knowing that he was worried about me and saying that Alice gave a bitter smile. What would be his reaction if he got to know that she was not the real Alice?

 

‘Should I go find his real daughter?’

 

How could she find someone who has already disappeared?

 

She thought for a moment, then Alice shook her head vigorously. It was a futile idea. There was no way she could find someone who had already disappeared.

 

‘Was it because it’s time to leave?’

 

Why does she feel upset because of this? Alice couldn’t sleep because of her thoughts. Four years was a long time than she thought. She had no affection in this world, to the point where she had no one to give her affection.

 

 

Contrary to her dizzy mind, the sun rose steadily today.

 

Dark circles sat under Alice’s eyes, who had stayed up all night with her eyes almost open.

 

“I’m tired.”

 

Alice, who fell on the table, blinked her eyes. She felt sleepy and to attend the banquet, it was time for her to dress up all day long, but her desire to sleep was like a chimney.

 

‘Let’s sleep.’

 

She closed her eyes to sleep for a little bit, and when she opened her eyes, there was a fuss in the household.

 

“… Miss! Miss!”

 

Someone called her in her sleep and it was Gina, her maid. Because of that, she jumped up, surprised,

 

‘Ugh, sleeping… it’s ruined.’

 

Alice wiped the saliva from her mouth and raised her head. She had blurry eyes and paled face. When the face she had been seeing for the past four years turned to Gina, Gina hurriedly put a cold cloth over Alice’s face. Only then did she come back to her senses, and Gina shouted loudly.

 

“My lady is in trouble!”

 

“A big trouble?”

 

 

 

‘Let’s see if there’s something big going on in this family. It’s not like the Crown prince wants to catch me….’

 

Alice, alerted to her passing thoughts, opened her eyes wide.

 

“Will the Crown prince hold me captive me for a long time?”

 

“No, what nonsense are you talking about?”

 

“Then?”

 

Gina whispered with a serious face at Alice’s attitude which looked like she doesn’t give a care at all.

 

“The Duke of Littenverk is here.”

 

“No, why is he here already?”

 

“What do you mean already, is that how you talk to someone who has come to ask to meet with you? Get up, get up, get up!”

 

Gina frantically pushed Alice. The reason was that she couldn’t keep such honored and respected guest waiting long. Alice shouted that she was also a precious person, but Gina didn’t pretend to listen. As she rolled around, a gorgeous noble lady was standing in front of the mirror before she knew it.

 

“Looking at it like this, I’m pretty, too.”

 

“You are originally pretty. It’s because that pretty face and her personality are completely different.”

 

Alice laughed at Gina’s remark that if she hadn’t been confined to her family, she would have dominated the social scene. She knew she had a pretty face. However, it was a face that was not affectionate. The only thing she can look at is her black hair, which was similar to hers before possessed this body. Alice shook her head hastily at her deepening thought.

 

‘Was it because I couldn’t sleep?’

 

Why do you feel so useless? Recalling her former self, which she hadn’t thought about in four years, Alice closed her eyes and opened them. She wanted to refrain from becoming more depressed. It was enough for her to stay up all night lost in her thoughts.

 

“Is he down there?”

 

“Yes. He is in the living room.”

 

“My father?”

 

“The Marquis has left early in the morning and was not here.”

 

“Then who was received the guest?”

 

“The butler…”

 

“This.”

 

Alice hurriedly tidied up her clothes and went outside. She hurriedly followed even past her movements. A duke of a country came to visit, and the reception was like this. She had nothing to say even if she was cursed at. Just as expected. The butler stood in front of the living room, restless.

 

“What’s the matter?”

 

“The Duke told me to leave.”

 

“Really?”

 

‘I’m going to swear at him for saying I was a foster daughter!’

 

There was still time until the banquet. It was social etiquette for the escorting male aristocrat to visit the young lady’s house right before the banquet began. It was obviously Lawrence’s fault for ignoring such etiquette and coming early, but no one pointed it out.

 

‘The rank of this thug.’

 

Because no one can say to a duke, especially a duke from another country, ‘Why did you come so early’. Except for Alice.

 

“Why did you come so early?”

 

Her words came out sharply since she couldn’t see the ‘beauty’ in him. If the purpose was to embarrass people by coming to the Marquis family, he succeeded. In fact, everyone around her was panicking. Except for Alice, obviously. Lawrence’s eyebrows twitched at her calm expression.

 

“I have something to ask Miss Alice.”

 

“To me?”

 

“Fine.”

 

Alice pouted at Lawrence’s chin gesture as if to sit down.

 

‘I don’t know whose house it is.’

 

 

Lawrence, who sat and greeted her as if she were his master, had no manners of his own toward her, noble lady.

 

‘Weird. I do not remember anything setting this kind of thing?’

 

When Alice set up Lawrence, she was set up as a man who was kind and even had a beautiful personality. She did, but his attitude was different. Was it because the story was over?

 

‘Right, it might change.’

 

Since she came in and changed Alice, of course, a person could also change. After all, in the original novel, he was a supporting actor rather than a leading actor, and he was a person who did not appear so much that it would be embarrassing to call him a supporting actor.

 

‘And what does it matter? No matter what personality he has, he just needs to get me out of this Empire.’

 

His changed personality didn’t matter. The most important thing for her was whether or not Lawrence could take her and escape this Erha Empire. For now, her goal was to get out of this empire, and she stared at Lawrence while he paid no attention to that gaze.

 

“What about diamond?”

 

“I said I would give it if you escorted me.”

 

At Lawrence’s words, which went straight to the point without saying hello, she couldn’t help but feel her momentum. She showed him her firmness so she could never give up now.

 

“Miss Alice, do you know what that is?”

 

“I don’t know what it is, but the thing that came into my hands was exactly what His Excellency needs.”

 

“I can’t imagine anyone I know behaving like this.”

 

“I can’t just give away something that came into my hands, whether it was a mistake or not. I still haven’t forgotten what occurred in the bakery shop.”

 

Lawrence’s eyebrows moved slightly at her firm words. Steam was still rising from the teacup on the table. At least that meant Lawrence had to change the tea had changed his tea multiple times.

 

‘Fussy.’

 

“What Miss Alice accidentally got is called the diamond of the abyss.”

 

“Oh, yeah?”

 

‘What is that?’

 

To Alice, who couldn’t understand at all, Lawrence explained it one by one.

 

‘To put it simply, it’s an expensive item, but apparently, the Marquis family doesn’t have the strength to afford it, that’s what it sounds like.’

 

So, give it up. Between the aristocrat’s way of speaking round and round, the words Lawrence wanted to say rang in her ears. Alice, who understood correctly, lifted her chin slightly.

 

“I do not want to?”
