Why Did I Become the Villainess?

Chapter 441: : Are you hesitating?



I look outside the window of the carriage and sigh. My mind couldn't help but think about the conversation I had with his majesty just now.

I anxiously look at the King who has visible impatience in his expression.

My mind is already going highwire thinking about a reason. Thinking while being anxious isn't a great combination at all because instead of telling something rational, I end up telling a foolish reason that only a toddler will believe.

"The two Princes argued because of a banana."

It was already too late for me to take back my words because I already said it. I look at his majesty and he just stares at me as if asking me if I am for real.

How am I supposed to think about some reasonable explanation if you are staring at me impatiently? You majesty, do you know how scary you can be when you are like that?

His majesty looks like he is collecting his composture. I can even see a small smile cracking his cold demeanor. He then clear his throat and shake his head. Probably to shake off any laughing cells in his body. "Because of a banana?"

I hesitantly nods my head. I know it is time for me to explain what I just said. But how am I supposed to explain things if even I don't know how to come up with an excuse?

"The two Princes were arguing about the last piece of banana. The two of them want to eat it but-"

I shake my head to get rid of the thoughts out of my mind. I don't want to think about it anymore. It is only making me embarrassed. It's a good thing his majesty didn't get mad at me for telling him nonsense things. He knew I was only trying to protect them and that he wouldn't get anything from me. So, he just let me off.

I heave a sigh. "Its a good thing I- ahh," I let out a scream when I suddenly feel the carriage halted. I wasn't prepared for the sudden halt that I fall on the floor of the carriage.

I groan and look at the coachman who looks at me worriedly. "Miss, I apologize a carriage stops in front of us so I don't have a choice but to make a sudden halt. Are you okay?"

Can my day be more better? What else this day would bring me?

I look at the coachman and shake my head. I wanted to complain but complaining will not bring any difference. I will only trouble this poor coachman. I only hired him because our coachman have something else to do for my family today so I don't have a choice but to hire

one.

"I understand. I just hope you will warn your passenger the next time." I return back to my seat and look at the unmoving carriage in front of us. "What happened with the carriage in front? Don't you want to talk to the coachman first and see if there is something wrong on his part?"

Panic strikes his face and he immediately left his carriage. Leaving me alone inside.

I look at ny time watch. Not that I am in a hurry right now, I just don't want to waste time. I have a lot of things to do today and I couldn't bear to waste any seconds of it.

I get off the carriage and find the coachman arguing with the coachman of the other carriage. I don't think they can resolve their conflict immediately. So, I decided to walk to the two and taps the shoulder of the coachman I hired. "Apologies for interrupting your argument. However, I just want to give my fare to you. I have something else to do today and even if I want to wait for the two of you to reconcile, I don't have enough time for the day. So, here is it."

I didn't wait for his response. I just put the money on his hand and left. It's a good thing the Foundation is already near so I don't need to hire another carriage.

I was already walking for a couple of minutes now when I feel a carriage behind me. I was expecting it will be the coachman earlier so I stop to assure him that he doesn't need to follow me anymore but my words stuck in my mouth when I recognized that familiar face.

It's Allan!

"Good day, Dame Csille. I hope you are having a great day!"

Holy moly! How can I forgot about him?

"Would you mind if I give you a ride?" I hear Allan asked me.

I anxiously wait on the pavilion of Mister Sewell's house cabin. I know he still wouldn't show me his true color but because I am well aware how Mister Sewell acts when he is angry, I couldn't help but be afraid for me life.

I just hope everything will be okay after this.

With a shaky hands I take the teacup on my hand and I am about to take a sip when I suddenly heard the familiar voice of Mister Earnan. It was so unexpected that the teacup slipped from my hand. My eyes immediately look on the floor and see the teacups shattered into pieces. I could even see that the tea stained my dress.

I anxiously look at Mister Sewell. "I-uh, apologies my-uh... I didn't expect that I would..." I was so anxious that I couldn't even construct a full sentence.

Mister Sewell gives me a warm smile and shakes his head. "You don't have to worry about that accidents always happen." He the snaps his fingers and a maid comes out of nowhere.

The maid disappear in a flash. I look on the below me and find the floor shining as if I never spilled a tea on it.

"Why don't you sit first, Dame Csille?" He the sits on the chair beside me. So, I don't have a choice but to sit also. Mister Sewell turn his head at me and smile. It's not the kind of smile that will make you runaway from someone yet I can feel a sense of urgency to runaway from here. A red light is shining brightly in my mind reminding me to get away of this place immediately.

But I know I couldn't do that, so even if my mind is telling me to leave, I remain sitting on my chair.

Mister Sewell turn his head at me and smile. "It's been a long time since we have seen each other, Dame Csille. I hope you had a great time these days."

It's just a simple words yet I could feel myself sweating buckets here. I don't know if his words has double meaning. I am assuming not.

I collect myself and hide my anxiety. It wouldn't be good if he knows that I am anxious right now. "Apologies, things got busy on my end that I didn't have much time to spare on you."

Mister Sewell stares at me for a couple of seconds before he takes the teacup and sips on it. After casually sipping his tea, he just shrugs his shoulders. "I understand. I know everyone will be busy because of the upcoming war."

I feel my whole body becomes rigid when I heard the word 'war'. Everyone is well aware of the possibility of the war yet this man here talk as if war is inevitable and it will be soon.

Are they planning behind me? Are they planning to launch an attack to the Vrawyth Kingdom?

I was still thinking what words I will say to not make it sound suspicious for him. But before

I could even utter a word, Mister Sewell said something again.

"I heard that the new department is prepared things for the possible attack. May I have the right to ask what are the things you have prepared?"

He didn't even bother ask other things and just straight up ask the department's plan. Are they desperate to know the Vrawyth Kingdom's next move?

Mister Sewell frowns when he notices that it take me time to answer his question. "Dame Csille, do you still want to have your revenge? Have you gone soft after working with his highness? Did you forget that he once embarrassed you in front of everyone? He ruined everything for you, Dame Csille. I hope you wouldn't forget about it."

I immediately turn my head at him. I know what he is doing. Trying to manipulate Csille again so she would do things for him. Like how he always use her for his gain.

I heave a silent sigh when I feel a sudden feelings of anger rise inside of me. The feelings of

the real Csille. Reminding me that I don't own this body just like how I don't own her

decisions.

"I haven't forgotten about it. How can I? He takes everything from me yet there he is enjoying his life to the fullesr. So, how can I let him be the only one who is enjoying his life? If I won't be happy then he doesn't have the right to be happy too."

I can see in my peripheral vision the smirk that shown in Mister Sewell' face. That smirk that send shivers in my whole being.

"That is good. Just know that I will always support your decision but I also want to remind you that it is already too late to turn our backs now. We couldn't let the Aeslaerean Kingdom at bay. So, I hope you can answer my question now. What are the plans of the new

department?"

I don't think I can find a way to hide things from him anymore. If I continue doing this, I'm afraid I might push all his buttons already and that is not a good thing.

"We haven't specifically made any plan since we just started operating this week." Mister Sewell nods his head and sip his tea again. "I see. But I am sure you have sorted a few things there, don't you?"

He knows! But how does he knows about it? Did he have other spy in the new department? But aren't the people working in the department are trusted people? How come he knows?

I know I need to spill some things to him already. "We did. We talked about our schedule last night-"

Mister Sewell frowns at me and interrupt what I am saying. "You do know that is not what I meant when I asked you what have you sorted out, right?"

I know! But what do you want me to do? We haven't even started yet you want me to ruined everything? My conscience wouldn't let me.

"Dame Csille, you do know that we need to know their plan to start our revenge, right? So, I don't understand why you are hesitating to tell me anything. Or are you having second thoughts on your revenge plan? Let me remind you once again that you can not turn your back

anymore."

I know! I know! You don't need to remind me again and again. I know everything more than what you know. I was just hoping I could buy some time for the new department. However, I know now that it is impossible.

"Aside from we were assigned of task, I don't know other things. As I said we haven't sorted

out everything yet."

Mister Sewell nods his head in satisfaction. "Care to tell me what those task are? I am sure by now you already have an idea who you are working with."

I heave a sigh. "I was assigned to manage the weaponry. Doctor Leander on medecine. General Abarral and Colonel Randle on creating a training plan for the army. Attorney Kirsa on

using law to fight against the enemies. Advisor Mallory for communications. While the Princes were assigned to handle the department as a whole."

What I said are the truth but I hidden some important things from him. Hoping by doing this, I wouldn't fully expose things on Mister Sewell even if I know it wouldn't take time before he realized that I keep things from him.

Mister Sewell nods his head in satisfaction. "Hmm, this line up is peculiar. I didn't expect I would see these people in one team." He then put his hand on his chin. "Such an unexpected

result but his majesty did a great job in putting them together. But too bad the Aeslaerean

Kingdom will launch an attack soon. They wouldn't even got a chance to use this useful department."

I feel my whole world stops when I heard what Mister Sewell said. The Aeslaerean Kingdom

will attack soon?
