Chereads / The Narcissist Villainess / Chapter 7 - chapter 8 "dinner part 2"

Chapter 7 - chapter 8 "dinner part 2"

"Oh my! my lady is a beauty! aren't you excited my lady? tonight the duke himself is going to have dinner with my lady and the other's!"

As Marie was talking I was dozing off I just listen to her talk while she was giving me a bath.

'W-when did we get in my room so fast? We were in the library a minute ago...what the hell?!'

After the bath Marie started to dry my silky hair and the other maid's were preparing my dress.Marie asked me a question and I automatically said yes.

'Why is this happening?! I thought the duke was busy?! the hell am I gonna do?!' I sighed and Marie looked at me and ask "Is something wrong my lady?"

I looked at Marie who was now brushing my hair I just said "no..." Marie thought to herself 'it seems that she is still scared of the duke.Was it because of that day?

she snapped out of it and ask Cassandra a question "My lady do you not liked this hairpin?"

she said as she was holding the hairpin Cassandra looked at the butterfly hairpin it was white and was shiny as silver.

Cassandra remembered her allies she suddenly felt her heart cracked she missed them but she knew that she had to let go she had to face it, because this is now her reality.

She snapped out of it and said "Sure I'll wear that hairpin..."

Marie then started braiding Cassandra's hair.After a few minutes my hair was already done.My hair was simple it had a short updo curls and the white butterfly hairpin.

After my hair was done Marie and the other maids helped me changed my dress.

Minutes later

I was done my dress was blue and white it had a blue rose in the middle and a white choker with a blue ribbon.I was surprised no wonder Cassandra was narcissist I mean looked at me.

"It's almost time my lady." I then stopped thinking and looked at Marie with a confident smile and said.

"Is that so? then I should go." I then started walking with a proud expression but on the inside I was nervous 'Calm down I can do this,let's just think and sort things out.' As I was walking I notice Caitlyn who was in garden she looked like she had escape out of a haunted house because she was panting heavily.

I looked at her in the window from above and said to myself 'The hell happend?' I was looking at her so much so Caitlyn notice my present and looked both ways.She then stared above her and saw me I looked at her with a emotionless face.

Caitlyn started running toward the house.I guess she was running towards me based on her footsteps.After awhile we were now facing each other.

Caitlyn panted for a minute,I started to open my mouth and ask her why she was running towards me.But before I can say something she ask me "did you see it?" I looked at her and ask "see what?" She started to stand properly and was covering her sweat with a handkerchief.

"What I was doing!" I started to think that she had gone mad and ask her again "What were you doing exactly?" Caitlyn frowned and yelled "I was escaping!" I widened my eyes on how stupid she was to tell me what she was doing.

She started to cover her mouth and she looked at me again.I stared at her with my usual emotionless face and said "Are you stupid? why are you telling me this? if you want to escape then you shouldn't have told me."

Caitlyn started to pout and said "Shut up! You're getting more annoying everyday!" I then said

"And you're getting dumber every minute." Caitlyn flinched she did not say anything after that.

I sighed and started to walked down the hallway.Caitlyn stood there looking at me with a contemplating eyes.I looked back at her and said

"What are you waiting for? let's go."

Caitlyn flinched and started to run towards me.Few minutes later of us not talking with each other,I finally started to speak.

"So why are you trying to escape in the first place?" Caitlyn said "Because of the duke,I don't know why but whenever I see him I feel intimidated.It's like his presence alone is suffocating me,If I made him angry I don't know what he will do to me..."

I looked at Caitlyn and said "You're not alone..." Caitlyn started to smirked and said "ofcourse I'm not alone but I'm sure you're most scared of the duke more than me or Cade!"

I just stay silent not saying a word until I heard her say something "Is it because of that day?" I flinched for some reason I started to feel my body heat up,I feel like I wanna throw up,my body was shaking uncontrollably from head to toe.

What is happening? Why am I shaking uncontrollably? this is not me who is shaking uncontrollably...it's this weak body's fault.Why though?

I was almost fell down until an arm saved me from falling.It was Caitlyn she looked at me with worried eyes and help me stand up,I was still shaking but It wasn't as intense as before.

Caitlyn said "If you're unwell then you should head back to you're room.I-I'm sorry I shouldn't have said that..."

I was standing still and my hand's was still shaking and only my hands were still shaking.I thought to myself 'Why is she apologising? and what do mean you shouldn't have said that?'

Caitlyn looked at me with pity and was going to say something back I spoke first."I'm alright,let's go we're going to be late..."

I was still shaking while walking but Caitlyn helped me by holding my arm closed to her "If you feel tired don't hesitate to tell me..."

I looked at Caitlyn with disbelief because in the novel she and Cassandra don't like each other nor do they hate each other either. hell they don't even glanced at each other.

Cassandra was surprised to see this side of Caitlyn.'But most importantly why did I react like that? I did not start shaking when I heard the duke's name but with that sentence I started heating up and shaking?! no there is something wrong with this body's reaction when mentioned of "that day" What do you mean by that? Caitlyn even tooked pity at me when after she mentioned that...guess I have to ask Marie about "that day" or whatever.'

While I was lost in thought Caitlyn and I are now at the door of the dining room.
