Why Did I Become the Villainess?

Chapter 431: : Visiting the Western region (2)



After setting down, I immediately left that cursed house. I tried to convince Brother Pascal to change the place we were staying but he insisted on staying there. He said it will be an insult to Mister Vulso if we reject hsi offer also it is already difficult to find a place to stay here since most inns are already occupied.

So, I have no other choice but stay there even if I don't want to. It's a good thing that we only need to stay here for two days or else I don't know what I will do if it's longer.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Csille, are you sure you don't want to rest first? We just got here, why don't you take an hour of rest first? Aren't you being too hard on yourself?"

I look at Brother Pascal and shake my head. We are currently in the carriage that Mister Vulso lend to us and we are on our way to MisterEarnan's store to check the situation there.

"Brother, how can I rest? We will only stay here for two days and within that two days, I need to make sure that check that everything is okay in the weaponry. I also need to check the current situation of the western region. I need to make sure that everything is okay here. I have tonwrite a report for his majesty so how can I rest?"

He shakes his head. "It's the reason why I am here. Let me help you. Why do you need to take all work on yourself?"

I shake my head. I know Brother Pascal also knows how to do my work because he was trained in this. It was part of his training when he was still the heir of the Lauretré family. But I want to work on it on my own. I want to see with my own eyes the current events in the western region.

"Thank you for the offer, but I want to do it on my own, Brother. I know you might even do better than me but I want to still do it. Not because I don't trust you but because I want to fully know what is happening here. So if his majesty ask me questions, I will be able to answer it. I hope you can understand, Brother."

He heaves a sigh and gently caress my head. "I will respect your decision but if you ever need help, I am just here for you."

I nod my head at him and focus on the paper on my lap. I already listed what I need to do in the western region. It is to make sure that I will be able to do all the things I need to do.

The first thing on the list is to see the current situation in Mister Earnan's shop.

I look outside the window and I immediately sit up straight when I see the shop of Mister Earnan.

A moment after, the carriage stops. I was about to open the door but Mister Earnan rush to my side to open it for me. He then show me a wide smile. "Dame Csille, you are finally back. You don't know how much we all waited for this day of your return."

I observed Mister Earnan's appearance and noticed how much he have changed. Not with the way he dressed but because of his temperament. He looks happy and contented now unlike when I see him before.

"Thank you for the warm welcome. I also want to thank you for still wanting to work with the Foundation. Don't worry, I will make sure that you will still receive all the benefits I have given you before or even increased it. The work you are doing were doubled, I think it is only right for me to add an increase."

Mister Earnan shakes his head. "Dame Csille, you don't need to that. It is already enough that you have trusted my skills. Beside from it, you even made sure that my whole family is safe here. That alone is enough for me."

I smile reassuringly at him. "I should. You deserve what you have now. So you don't have to thank me. You should thank yourself for having such a skills."

I look behind him and noticed that there are probably ten or more than ten people behind Mister Earnan. And all of them are looking at me eagerly. As if I am sort of a hero they have been waiting for.

Mister Earnan probably noticed where I am staring because he immediately introduced me to the people behind him. They were his apprentice. They were the reason why we were able to forge hundreds or thousands of weapons.

After the short introduction, Mister Earnan starts to show us around his shops.

However, my attention was caught by something. I have been wondering about this ever since we arrived in Mister Earnan's shop

"Dame Csille, this is where-" he stop talking and stare at where I am staring. He probably noticed that my attention is on something rather than listening to his explanation. "I see. You are probably wondering where does the other shop that used to be here before?"

I look at Mister Earnan and nod my head. I noticed ever since we arrived here that the stores that used to be around Mister Earnan's shop were all gone. The building is still there but it is mostly occupied by Mister Earnan's people. That is where they were forging the weapons.

"After you return to the capital, I decided to bought the land here. So, we can have this place all for ourselves. It is to ensure that no one will know the deal we had with his majesty."

I take a glance at the stores that are already occupied by Mister Earnan's people before I look back at him. I appreciate that he made an initiative to do this although he doesn't have to worry because I had made preparation for this. I had made my promise to Mister Earnan and I will keep that promise no matter what. That is to protect his family against anyone who will try to harm them.

"You should have told me. Buying this land probably cost a lot of fortune. How much did you spend so I can pay it for yo-"

I wasn't able to finish what I want to say because Mister Earnan interrupts me. "Dame Csille, how can I allow you to pay for this land? We were the one staying here, I think it is only right for me to buy it with my own money. So you don't have to worry about it."

I shake my head. Although he got a lot of money with the first deal we had with the monarchy, I am sure most of it were used to buy this land.

"Mister Earnan, you are already my people. How can I allow you to shoulder it?"

However, no matter how much I convinced Mister Earnan, he wouldn't budge. In the end, I don't have a choice but to let it be. I will just think of a way to do something for him in return.

After our little argument, Mister Earnan then show me the batches of weapons that are already okay for shipment. It was actually meant to be ship out last night but because he wants me to see it first, he delayed the shipment.

Brother Pascal and I spend almost two hours inspecting the quality of the weapons. We also check each workstation of Mister Earnan's apprentice. It is to make me see how much his apprentice have learned from him.

What Mister Earnan said is true. That everything is under control here and there is nothing I should be worried about.

Mister Earnan bows his head at us. "Thank you for visiting us, Dame Csille and Doctor Pascal. I hope the two of you were satisfied with what you have seen. If you see any problems or want to change anything please let me know. We will immediately change it."

I shake my head. "This is your shop, Mister Earnan so you do what you want to do with it. As long as you can be able to produce the needed number of weapons, we wouldn't have

problem."

I look at Brother Pascal and nods my head. "We will be leaving now, Mister Earnan." Brother Pascal said some compliments about the weapons before we get on the carriage that is waiting for us.

The moment I sit on the carriage, I immediately close my eyes to take a rest. I feel exhausted all of a sudden.

"Dame Csille, Doctor Pascal may I know where are we going?" I heard the coachman ask.

I was about to answer but Brother Pascal interrupts me. "Let go back to the inn. We need to

rest."

I open my eyes and I am about to say something but Brother Pascal raises his eyebrow at me. "What? You are already exhausted yet you want to do something? Do you think you can function fully if you push yourself?,:

I was about to refute to him but I also realized he was right. I badly need some rest right

now.

After we return home, Brother Pascal and I both head straight to our room to rest. I thought I wouldn't be able to sleep in the room that have witness everything from the start. But I was wrong because the moment I laid my back on the bed, I was immediately drifted to sleep.

I was deep in my sleep when someone rush inside my room that my door made a loud sound. I immediately get up and look in front and find Prince Fraser glaring at me. He looks like a predator that is eyeing his prey.

I feel my body feezes when he starts to walk towards me. Every step he makes, his eyes becomes more sharper. If his stares could only kill I am sure I already died because of it. "Your highness? May... may I k-know what you are doing here?" I said with too much difficulty. I don't understand why do I feel so scared to him today.

Prince Fraser laughed sarcastically like an evil character in movies. "You are really asking me that question, Csille? I should be the one asking what you are doing here. You shouldn't

have returned."

I frown. I dominate understand what he is saying. Why shouldn't I return here? Did I do something wrong again?

I shake my head. "Your highness, I don't understand what you are saying. Why shouldn't I

return here?"

Prince Fraser glares at me more fiercely and I could feel my whole body shivers because of it.

Danger..

All I can feel now is danger. As if he would do something to me. But what can he do? He is

the Crown Prince of the Vrawyth Kingdom. If someone knew he hurt me it will be detrimental

to him.

Prince Fraser continues to take a step closer to my bed. So I have no choice but to move or

else I don't know what he can do to me.

Something is telling me that there is wrong with Prince Fraser and I need to stay away from

him.

However, I wasn't able to get off my bed because he grab my arms and pin me to the bed. But unlike the pinningh situation in the movies, it wasn't romantic at all because he was

strangling me already.

I immediately raise my hand to stop him from what he is doing but every time I would move, I can feel him tightening his hold on my neck.

I can feel I am slowly finding it difficult to breat. My eyes starts to moisten because of the

tears. I feel so scared. I dominate understand why would Prince Fraser do this to me. What did

I do to deserve this?

Prince Fraser glares at me. He already looks like a demon in my eyes. "You shouldn't have

returned but now that you are here, I need to get rid of you. Before you can get between us. I

need to get rid of you."

My eyes widen in horror. What does he mean by get rid of me? Don't tell me he is planning to

kill me?
