Rehabilitating the Villainess

Chapter 115: Side Story – Running Errands I (2)

[Ruelles POV]

Oops!

Ruelle shook her head, waking herself up from the reverie of fun.

She had almost forgotten todays goal while looking at the flowers!

I have to buy milk for as an errand!

However, Ruelles goal wasnt just completing the errand. It included examining the environment outside the Baslett familys mansion, which she didnt get to experience that much.

Ruelle increased her speed, trying to somehow engrave the scenery around her with eyes. Suddenly, she saw passers-by passing by.

Hello!

Like her daddy said, she didnt skip greetings. The people tilted their heads because she was wearing a luxurious dress, but Ruelle didnt care. She was just doing her best to follow her fathers words.

Ah!

[Ruelle, friends are important, so its good to try and make friends with good people.]

Ruelle, finally recalling her fathers advice, turned her gaze and looked around her.

Oh, how are you?

She tried to talk to the ant that was roaming below, but the ant didnt talk like they did in the fairy tale.

Ruelle looked around her once more. But she couldnt see a child her own age.

When the disappointed Ruelle let out a weak sigh, someone came into her field of vision.

It was a girl with brown hair.

She seemed much older than Ruelle, but that didnt make her an adult.

Thats it!

This was a rare opportunity!

A chance to make a friend. Someone not from another aristocratic family who only valued her for her status.

Hi! Wh-whats your name?

Ruelle cheerfully greeted the girl with great enthusiasm. It was a perfect greeting, even though she almost stuttered her pronunciation.

I-Im Kanna.

But the answer wasnt perfect, as the girl responded in a trembling voice, filled with fear.

Feeling strange about the fact, Ruelle raised her head and looked more closely at Kanna. 

Kannas gaze was pointing to Ruelles dress.

It was only then that Ruelle realized what was wrong.

At the moment, she was wearing a pure white dress with blue frills. It was something that only nobles could afford to wear.

What should I do?

At this rate, it would be impossible to make friends. Kanna wouldnt even properly look at her, and continued to stand still with a lowered head.

First of all, Ruelle decided to tell a harmless lie to make a friend.

I-I picked this dress up off the ground!

Yes, yes!?

Admittedly, telling a lie was harder than she thought.

Huh!

Ruelle took a brief deep breath.

After calming herself down, she looked at Kanna with great expectations, but the other party didnt seem to believe her words.

Well, a dress she picked up from the ground wouldnt be this clean. There was no way a dress like this wouldve been left on the ground.

What should I do, Daddy?

She tried to call her father internally, but there was no answer. What she heard instead was Kannas nervous voice.

Are you Lady Ruelle of the Baslett family? I remember seeing a glimpse of you at a festival before

Apparently, making friends was quite the difficult ordeal.

However, Ruelle didnt give up and earnestly spoke up, I am not Ruelle Baslett!

In order to make herself sound convincing, Ruelle decided to double down on the lie.

Ruelle looked back at her memories.

When Mommy lies to Daddy, what does she do? Yes! She pouts her lips each time and looks away.

Ruelle was able to figure out right away that it was a lie, but her Daddy, Eran, kept getting fooled.

Ruelle chewed on that fact, pursed her lips, and looked away.

Duke of Baslett is not my Daddy!

She even pouted after she said it. It was a perfect lie!

However, seeing that Kanna still didnt seem to be convinced,  Ruelle took another breath and added more lies.

My Grandpa is definitely not the Duke Azbel!

After that, Ruelle gasped for breath. To her, telling lies was more difficult than using magic.

However, there was one other thing that suddenly popped into Ruelles head.

[Ruelle, you shouldnt lie.]

It was something her Daddy used to tell her quite a lot. Because of that, Ruelle had no choice but to open her closed mouth again.

Actually, my Daddy is Duke Baslett.

Ruelles confident expression went through a drastic change.

Its also true that my Grandpa is Duke Azbel

In Ruelles head, her perfect lie had crumbled to pieces.
