Chereads / The Narcissist Villainess / Chapter 5 - Chapter 6 "At all cost!"

Chapter 5 - Chapter 6 "At all cost!"

I went to my room and grabbed the book with my two hands 'I should read it so that I won't forget any details.' I sat down on my bed and started reading.

After a few hours the sun went down,I look at the window and sighed internally 'Cade...Cade...CADE! I forgot about this part! god damn it! in the novel Cade started to have depression at the age of 8! further in the novel he went banana's and murdered someone and that someone is Caitlyn! ahh! I should fix this quick!'

I started running on hallway and was thinking 'The reason of his depression because he felt he was not good enough! I need to fix this because he is now my brother from the moment I became Cassandra he's my responsibility! Who would become the heir of the duchy if he get's jailed?! ME and I don't want that at all I just want to live in a big attic and never come out!'

While I was lost in thought I bumped into someone and fell down on my butt,I opened my eyes saw a butler he was I think 45 years old he look at me for second the butler said "I sincerely apologise my lady." he gave me a hand and I acted like a narcissist I said "Geez! you should watch out where you going next time!" Truth be told it's was my fault why I fell it's because I was lost in thought that I forgot which direction I'm going to.

The old butler look at me with a warm eyes and said "I apologise although weren't you the down who bump into me?" I flinch 'true...but I have to act like that it would be weird if I act nice all of a sudden...but something is weird this old butler looks different than any other servants besides Marie.'

"Do you really think that? you must be having lack of sleep if you think I'M the one who bump into you mere servant? who even are you?" the butler smiled at me and said "I served the duke my lady that is why you don't know who I am." when I heard what he just said my heart skipped a beat and I was sweating uncontrollably as I thought to myself 'h-h-he served the duke?! shit! what am I gonna do?!'

I immediately changed my reaction and made a poker face,I look at the butler and started to speak "Is that so? I'll let you off the hook this time or I'll tell the duke to fire you." I gulp and thought to myself 'WHAT THE FUCK?! WHY DID I- UGH! stupid me stupid me I'm dumbass why did I say that?! I'm not even close with the duke!' the butler look at me with a complicated gaze and the butler started to speak "Thank you my lady but may I ask a question?" I started to shake just little and said "what? say it quickly I don't have time for this." I look at the butler with an annoyed face but in my mind I just want this conversation to end!

"Why is my lady doing here? as far as I know you are not allowed to go here my lady." I was surprise and look around the hallway 'Now that I think of it the hallway looks different now where the hell am I?' "My lady?" I jumped out of surprise and backed away the butler looked at me with a suspicious eyes and he ask again "It seems like My lady did not hear me I'll ask again what are you doing here my lady?" I gulp and started shaking from head to toe I look around the hallway 'The only way to escape this shitty situation is to tell half of the truth." I stared at the butler again who was still looking at me with a suspicious eyes I stopped shaking and acted a confident,I started to speak "I was going to the library but I was lost in thought I did not see where I was going." the butler smirk and said "So my lady is the one who bumped into me?" I was surprised 'I thought he was gonna ask why I was lost in thought or something it was just that?! geez butler you almost give me a heart attack!' I did not answer back and just shut my mouth.

Suddenly a there was a guard who look like in his twenties he look at me and immediately bowed towards me "I greet my lady." I noded and he raised his head now the guard was looking at the butler "Head butler the duke is looking for you." the head butler looked at the guard and he look at me but I did not looked back I just stare at the guard,the butler then spoke "It looks like I have to go my lady the duke has called me I do hope we can see each other again." I put a warm smile at the butler and said "Me too..." but in my thought I was straight up saying 'I don't want to see each other again.' He then bowed and walked away with the guard behind him.

I started to walking towards the library as I was walking I started thinking something important 'The servant of the duke huh? if I remember correctly Zephyrus A. Nefarious the current duke of the Nefarious duchy,The mysterious duke wait a minute!' I stopped walking in the middle of the hallway and thought to myself 'The head butler...he is not a side character he's name is Besnick C. Kurt the right handman of the duke! how did I not notice that no wonder I was afraid of him my instinct was telling he was dangerous! Besnick was one of the people who help the female lead kill me! I should stay away from him at all cost!'
