Chapter 3: Helping Mom.
(Syrilblia’s POV)
Syrilblia in the novel was a major slacker. Such a woman needed a personal maid to get them to do things, but this spoiled girl always found a “reason” to have them fired. As such, mother and father gave up on that topic.
This meant that prior to attending the Royal Academy, Syrilblia was a very lazy girl, practically her entire life. As such, there honestly was nothing for me to do at all. Since I was free, I decided to visit Marina.
Knock!
Knock!
Syrilblia: “Mother, can I come in?” I ask through the door.
Marina: “Yes.” She replied.
Entering in the room, I saw Marina focusing on her work. She didn’t even bother to look up from her work to give me a glance. I didn’t mind, though. Women like her are very beautiful when they’re engrossed in their work.
Marina: “How much?” She asked, still not looking up.
Syrilblia: “Pardon?” I reply with a confused tone.
Marina: “How many coins do you need for this outing?” She clarified.
Syrilblia: “Oh… I am not going out.” I reply.
Marina: “That so? Then… why are you here?” She asked, finally looking up from her work.
Looking at her desk, I saw piles upon piles of documents. All of which Marina had to go through and sign off on. Honestly, I was just coming here for a small chat… But now I want to help her out.
Syrilblia: “Can I help with the documents?” I ask.
Marina: “…Sure.” She agreed.
Carna: “Right this way, Lady Syrilblia. There is a free desk.” She informed, carrying a stack of documents with her.
This is Carna, I am sure. Marina’s loyal maid that grew up with her. In the novel, she was the one who helped reveal my and Martin’s sins. Of course, all to help the lovable female lead.
Sitting at the desk, I picked up an ink pen and dipped it in ink. Carna looked over me the entire time while I looked through and signed the documents. Carna clearly didn’t trust me.
Going how easily father and I failed in the novel, I am sure that Carna is at least aware of what I have done. As for Marina, I have no idea if she does or not. She does treat me well, though maybe it is an act?…
Many Hours Later.
With a sigh, I put down my ink pen and stretched. One of my part-time jobs was doing paperwork at a post office. As such, I knew how to handle such documents like this. Which is something that Syrilblia surely doesn’t know how to do.
Carna was watching over me like a hawk, but once I was done with my set of documents, she went back to her lady’s side. Marina still had quite a few documents left. But she would be done in just an hour or so. Getting up from my chair, I walked over to Marina.
Syrilblia: “You’ve been at that document for a while, Mother. Is there anything wrong with it?” I ask with a curious tone.
Marina: “There is… or maybe my mind is just messing with me. Can you check it as well?” She replied.
Syrilblia: “Sure.” I reply.
Leaning over on the desk to look at the document, it was easy to find the problem. The balances didn’t check out at all. It was easy to tell that coins were embezzled, and whoever did it didn’t care about covering up their tracks that much at all.
It didn’t take me but a minute or two to look over the document, but I pretended to be still doing so. Why? Because Marina was staring at my chest the entire time. Leaning over more, so that my cleavage was showing, I could hear Marina gulp quietly.
What the fuck? There wasn’t a single word in the novel that depicted Marina lusting after her own daughter. She… she seems to see me as a woman, not her daughter. This is fucking crazy…
Look, I understand that some people might be attracted to their family members, but it isn’t common at all. Not to mention, I am not adopted into this family. If the novel is to be believed, Marina gave birth to me.
This would be REAL incest, not the half incest that most media decides to do. You know, the ones where they aren’t actually blood related, etc. Should… should I go with this route?
Thinking about how the story played out… Marina survived the lynching. Well, Martin and I were lynched, but we weren’t killed then and there. Instead, we had a public execution.
Marina was absolutely innocent in what happened, so she was safe. The crown prince, being the only heir to the throne, gave it up to be with the female lead. Going by the ancient rules, Marina ended up being the new ruler of the kingdom.
Should I be so sinful to seduce my own mother in this life, and hug her thighs just to survive? Maybe… but I don’t have enough information to act on at the moment. Snapping back to reality, I spoke to my mother.
Syrilblia: “The coins were embezzled, and the person that did it barely covered it up, Mother.” I inform.
Marina: “So I was right…” She said with a sigh.
Syrilblia: “Do you have any idea who did it?” I ask.
Marina: “That I do.” She replied with a confident tone.
Syrilblia: “It was my father, wasn’t it?” I assume.
Marina: “…”
Syrilblia: “…”
Oops… I shouldn’t have said that. Syrilblia was supposed to be faithful to her father, but I just implicated him in this crime against our family without batting an eye. Is my act up now? I hope not…
Marina: “Carna… please brew us a fresh pot of tea.” She ordered.
Syrilblia: “…”
Ah, I am might have screwed myself over on this. Soon, Carna came back with a little rolling table thingy, and poured us fresh cups of tea. Mother ordered her to leave the room, and then it was just her and me inside the room. Shit…
