Villainess Becomes The Knight - Chapter 95

I stretched myself on the bed lazily like a cat. I was too happy that even the tiredness was nothing in front of it. It was a perfect day. Though it did not go as planned at all.

Due to the accident the fair closed just after the patrolling knights reached there. so that they could look at the matter carefully. And even father changed his mood to take us to the theatres. So the day ended rather early. But the good thing was I have achieved my first goal today.

I smiled as I moved and took my diary out and looked at my bucket list.

Earn love and affection from every member of the family.

Damage all the business of archduke.

Became an official knight and keep the crown prince safe.

Damage the political image of archduke.

Let the crown prince be the emperor to keep the family safe.

Expose Garrard and send him to prison or rather kill him.

Though the list was long and difficult to achieve, I was happy that I have completed the first goal today.

My eyes fell on the music box that Noah had won for me. After our last argument I had thought that I would never be able to forgive him but it did not seem to be the case. And he was the only friend i had after all. In my last life, I only had fake friends but now I know the value of real friends so I would not accept defeat so easily.

I took it and moved towards the bed again. Keeping it on the left side, I laid comfortably on the bed. When i opened the box, its music started flowing into the room and so as in my heart that was feeling warmth.

I didn’t even know when my eyes started feeling heavy and my eyes dropped. For a moment I felt a figure standing in the distance but when I forced my eyes to open there was none. I stood up and checked the whole room. There was no one. The door and window were closed too. So I just shook my head and slept again.

In the morning when I opened my eyes, Beth was already standing there. I smiled looking at her which she returned with her warm smile.

“My lady, how have you been?” she asked me as she moved closer to me. I wore those sleepers and then stood up, rubbing my eyes and yawning.

She shook her head and sighed, “noble ladies of your age did not scratch their body like and did not yawn with an open mouth. You did not behave like a lady at all these days, even if you’re going to be a knight, you still will marry a man, not the other way around.“ She scolded me mildly. This was the first time she was giving me advice so freely and even showing the courage to scold me even when it was mild, it was something new. As if she knew that she had that right over me.

So i could finally say that i was walking with my family and friends now.

“Pfffftttt.. Hahaha.. It’s not like I can’t, it is just that I have no interest in girls.” i laughed at the joke but she did not get it. I just shook my head. Having love with same gender and then marrying them was something that was a matter beyond the comprehension of these people.

“Nothing” I just shook my head as I looked at the training ground. Today I could not train. Hope Nickolas and Noah have informed sir Seymour.

“Are you not getting ready for your training my lady?” she asked moving towards me as she saw me looking out of the window and enjoying the view leisurely. Something that I had not even done once since I came back.

I was so bought in completing the checklist that I forgot the reasons behind it.

“My hands are injured. I am not going to train today. So I would like to have a walk in the central garden and have my breakfast near the lotus pond.”

“Oh, my lady, what happened to your hands?” she finally noticed the small wrapped cloth in my hands and her expression turned into a worried one.

“I apologize for not taking proper care of you, my lady. Come let me check the wound first and do the dressing again. This one is turned dirty.” She held my hand and dragged me to the nearby chair while I just laughed and shook my head.

She opened the wound so slowly and gently as if it was made up of glass and would shatter with a small pressure. Se flinched looking at the injury in my hands and then gently blew on it.

For a moment her image overlapped with the lady with golden hairs and green eyes who was looking at me with worried eyes. I blinked my eyes a few times to clear my eyes.

“Is it paining a lot my lady?” she asked as she started wrapping the wound again with a fresh piece of cloth, her eyes were once again brown and I couldn’t help but think that I have become too sensitive with being young again.

“No, I am fine. Go and prepare a bath so that I can get ready early. I may go out with brother Nick. So i want to go for walk as soon as possible so that i can enjoy it too.” I replied, taking my hands back from her hands.

She nodded and left for the preparation. I was waiting for her to tell me about the conversation she had at her home. But she did not say a thing. I will ask her directly then after breakfast. With that thought i stood up and walked towards the bath area.

“Beth, have you asked your husband about your daughter working here and so as your son and daughter in law?”

“umm, can we talk about it after breakfast, my lady?”
