The Villain Family’s New Daughter-In-Law - Chapter 93
“Wait. What else did I do wrong to you, Orbia Young Lady? I just really want to get to know you.”
Penelope said with tears streaming down her sleeve as if it was unfair.
“Sniff.”
“Don’t cry, Cavill Young Lady.”
A few children, shaken by the tears, looked at Penelope pitifully. But Luciel pointed out her fault with unshakable eyes.
“I am not the Orbia Young Lady anymore. Now you should call me Princess Bellstein. Are you deliberately trying to lower Bellstein’s honor by saying that on purpose at a wedding reception?”
(Note: It’s written with a different work from Royal Princess. An Archduke and Duke’s Young Lady can also be called a ‘Noble Princess’ because their ranks are the highest in nobility, only under a Royal Princess.)
Luciel said with a smile. Because her impure intentions were so transparent that it made her laugh. No matter how much she tried to bully Luciel, Penelope was only a ten-year-old child.
She only realized anew that the clever child that had made her fearful in the past was such a stupid, ill-willed child.
“Oh, no, can it be? It was just a mistake.”
Penelope’s bewildered, heated face could be clearly seen, and Luciel decided to give her a little more medicine. It was true that Penelope was smart and clever for her age. Perhaps that’s why the word she hated the most was that she was stupid.
“You were invited to the Bellstein’s reception and mistook our family’s name. Do you have such a bad memory, Cavill Young Lady?”
“…….”
Penelope looked at Luciel with a ferocious look in her eyes, full of resentment.
‘That damn girl! You dare to shame me publicly?!’
Still, she turned her head and looked around quickly.
There were no adults on the third floor, so she only had to make the children here quiet.
She was already forced to bow her head under her father’s compulsion and pretended to be friendly, but now she’s ignoring me while pretending to be a Duke’s Princess?!
Now, Penelope only thought of bursting in anger and venting on what was ahead of her.
“…What do you mean by that?”
Penelope glared at Luciel, approached her, and reached out her hand. She was about to grab Luciel’s hair right away, but Dana and Marsha grabbed Penelope from both sides.
“Young Lady Cavill, what are you doing to the Princess?”
“Violence is bad!”
“Leave this! That girl is calling me stupid!”
The other children, who had fallen for Penelope’s appearance, secretly retreated at her vicious look.
“What’s this fuss about?”
When Kizef, who was looking for Luciel, appeared, the surrounding area became quiet as if ice water had been poured over it. Although they don’t interact often, everyone knew from early on that Kizef’s intimidation was unique.
Fortunately, Penelope’s hands did not catch her hair, but Luciel floundered down as if her body had lost its strength.
“Luciel!”
“T-T-that’s all acting! I haven’t even touched her.”
Penelope cried out of resentment. How could Young Master Bellstein appear at this moment?
Kizef, who hastily raised and supported Luciel, looked at Penelope with cold eyes and asked.
“Looking at your poor mannerisms, the low level is understandable. Which family?”
Penelope shut her lips tightly, and Dana, who was beside her, answered instead.
“It’s the young lady of the Marquis of Cavill, Penelope.”
Then Penelope pinched Dana’s forearm.
“Aww.”
“The Marquis of Cavill. It’s such an exquisite relationship.”
Kizef mumbled. Seeing this, the young girls blushed and opened their mouths. Penelope, belatedly recognizing the unfavorable situation, lowered her eyebrows as if pleading.
“Oh, it’s not that. We were just figuring things out between ourselves. It’s no big deal.”
“It didn’t seem like a big deal to the Young Lady, but it wasn’t for me.”
Soon after, when Luciel explained the whole story, Kizef, who was listening quietly, shook his head as if he was contemplative.
“The right thing was said, and yet you are trying to use violence. Where are the Young Lady’s parents?”
“I, I, Y-Young Master. Please, pretend you don’t know. It’s not like I really hit her.”
Penelope shamelessly said.
Indeed, she was Maximus’s sister.
“I thought it would be different because you were the younger sister, but that’s not the case. Like Maximus, you are cowardly, shameless, and despicable.”
Penelope twitched and raised her eyebrows at the dark energy that Kizef exuded.
“What do you mean?”
“I am looking for your brother. Tell him to come to the garden.”
“Why are you calling my brother?”
“It’s something you don’t need to know. Oh, if your brother doesn’t come, let’s make sure to inform the adults about this without exception. What do you think?”
For a moment, Penelope’s face was startled as she realized what would happen if the Duke and his father were informed of this.
“That can never happen. So, can I just bring my brother?”

‘What are you going to do with my brother? Well, that’s not my business.’
“Yes.”
Having said that, Kizef took Luciel and disappeared downstairs.
As if the children were moving away from Penelope one by one, they escaped from the third floor. Penelope rolled her eyes and didn’t forget to threaten other children.
“You guys will regret it if you tell about what happened here. Do you get it?”
Left alone, Penelope chewed her nails and looked downstairs.
‘Ugh it’s frustrating. There are so many people, I don’t know where my brother is, but I have to live first.’
Penelope first went downstairs to go back to the table where her parents were.
“Father, mother! Did you see where he went?”
“Maximus said he had business to do, and he went out.”
As he was greeting the high-ranking nobles who had come down from the capital, the Marquis of Cavill approached his daughter.
“Penelope, do you have something to say to this father?”
With a gentle expression on his face, the Marquis lightly placed his hand on his daughter’s shoulder. He took her away, as if to talk for a moment, and went to an empty corridor and asked a small question.
“How did it go? Have you met her?”
“Oh, no. yet…”
She seemed more comfortable to say that she didn’t see at all than to say that she did something wrong.
“They should be coming on their own.”
It was then. As they walked around the tables, they saw the young couple greeting other people.
Marquis Cavill finally returned to his seat, thinking it was an opportunity to check with his own eyes whether the girl’s eyes were like jewels.
Penelope did not go into the hall but hid behind the wall, lest the incident is revealed.
Soon after, it was time for the young couple to make eye contact with the Marquis of Cavill.
“I’m glad you’re here, did you say Marquis Cavill?”
Kizef’s lips moved, giving a smile, but his eyes were cold unlike a child’s.
“Yes, this is the first time our family has been invited by Bellstein. Congratulations on your marriage, Young Master.”
The Marquis then turned his gaze to the little Luciel. She thought to herself as she looked at him closely.
‘As expected, you look like you want to check my eyes.’
There was something prepared in advance before I met him.
Luciel remembered what happened in the morning.
“Grandpa, please cast a spell to change my eyes.”
“Is there a reason?”
“There are a lot of people visiting today, so I think they will stare at me.”
“That’s because you’re cute. Those eyes will definitely draw attention. Leave it to me.”
So I asked Grandpa Gillard to change the color a little for dark brown eyes, and now it looks like she’s completely transformed.
Again, the face of the Marquis was very wrinkled. Contrary to his own expectations, he seemed to be very disappointed that her eyes were not glistening like jewels.
‘…How did this happen? Penelope said that she had sparkling eyes.’
I’m going to ask Penelope right away.….
For a moment, there was an energy that made the surroundings cold and frozen, and the Duke slowly approached. Standing next to Luciel, his red eyes looked down at the Marquis like looking at a petty bug.
Cavill held his breath for a moment at the oppressive feeling and then moistened his dry lips with his tongue like a snake’s before lifting his head again.
“Thank you for inviting me to this honorable occasion, Your Majesty the Duke of Bellstein.”
At the greeting of the Marquis, the Duke swirled around him and looked over. At the Duke’s blatantly wary attitude, Cavill’s chest tightened.
But what came back was an attitude that was horribly ignoring the Marquis.
“Well, who might you be?”
Aside from the embarrassment and displeasure, the eyes of the surrounding nobility gathered as he openly received the Duke’s cold treatment. Of course, there were many gossips.
“I guess he came even though he wasn’t invited”.
“By the way, I heard that the Marquis of Cavill was sentenced to probation…”
Barely keeping his face from being distorted by his shame and resentment, Marquis Cavill said.
“I think you may not know it because I’m under the capital’s central nobles. I’m the Marquis of Cavill. We have come by invitation. I have been checked on the list, sir.”
The Marquis also held up the invitation with a wrinkled face, as if asking everyone around them to see it.
“Oh, well, I’m sorry. But there must have been some misunderstanding.”
“Well, it can’t be…check out the list and you’ll find out.”
The Duke briefly called the banquet administrator to check the list. Since it was on the list, the Duke said after lightly rebuking the administrator.
“But in the first place, Bellstein didn’t have any dealings with the Cavills, so it’s strange…What can I do now? Since you’ve already come, I hope you enjoy it. Excuse me.”
At those words the Marquis and his wife, who could not leave nor could they stay in the banquet, could only stay upright on the same place, in despair.
