Chereads / The Male Lead Wants To Kill Me / Chapter 3 - "Door of loose motion" Ch 3

Chapter 3 - "Door of loose motion" Ch 3

Previously: So till now, I figured most of the plot out. Though it didn't take time for the plot to change and after that I picked up a teenager who turned out to be a yandere... Help me.

I look at Clara, flabbergasted obviously. She smiles and guides my hand inside the room and all I do is stay shocked.

( What a plot..)

__*__

Now I stand with my arms crossed and Clara smiling. I sigh, an annoyed look on my face.

" So just because I talked nicely, you want to marry me?" Clara nods her head cheerfully as I slap my hand on my head.

" You do realise I am a woman and also married." I say, my eyes shifting to the other side.

( It's a lie though..)

Clara smiles but then she comes close to me," but mistress your aura tells me something else."

I look at her eyes confused as heck.

"What aura?" you know what let me just shower. "

Clara was still standing and just like that a decade passed.

" Why are you still standing?

" I wanna stay here."

I sit on the floor as Clara looks down at me with hope in her eyes.

"Why? I said already I don't need help."

" Not because of that but because I love you!"

(That's it!)

I snap, and stand up pushing that weird girl towards the door and outside the room. She looks at me with pitiful eyes.

"Listen you are not old enough, I'm married and you are not gonna be the one to hear my heavenly voice!"

I slam the door on the confused girl's face and start huffing badly.

"What a crazy shit! when the hell will that duke come!? "

[ Say yes to heaven, say yes to him.]

"Stop!"

[Like I'd ever..]

I slowly fix my breathing and walk towards the pool.

(I should just take a shower.)

I reach the chain behind my back as I slowly pull it down, "the script should cut here right?"

[...]

"Ain't no way I am showing my body covered in muscles, this novel is family friendly."

[Right...]

__*__

(The shower was nice! )

I slowly walk across the hallway wearing a blue and purple gown which was stored inside a cabinet inside the room.

(Now you may be wondering how did I get my hair wet. Welp as soon as I got inside the pool the wig came of on it's own but after showering I put it back on for safety.)

I walk cross the giant hallway getting myself lost as it is.

(I want to wear my hoodie, holding this balloons inside me is a hassle.)

I look down on my chest and sigh.

(Wish someone could give me any comforting dress.)

I sulk as I walk pass a giant door .

(....)

I come back to the door immediately, it was made of gold and a big sword was carved in it.

I narrow my eyes and smile.

(Seems like something special is in here.)

I reach my hands out to the handle and someone rushes their way towards me. I flinch and take a step back.

(Oh, that old butler.)

Without catching his breath he bows and speaks, "duchess dinner is ready, let me lead you to the dining room" . I suspiciously look at the butler.

(Is that room that special, that the butler came rushing?)

The butler then starts walking as I follow him, after a moment of silence I ask,

"Whose room is that?"

The butler flinches as he let out a startled cough, "duchess pardon me, but I think you already know it's the duke's room."

I widen my eyes realising the situation,

(ah, yes the duke told all his servants to keep the duchess away from his room, if they don't want to get killed. Not to mention he couldn't stand Scarlet even a bit in the original novel.)

We keep walking as an evil Idea comes to my mind.

(Tonight I'm going to sneak up in that shitty duke's room.)

The butler looks back, checking up on me and shift his head quickly with his face traumatised.

( Is he scared of my sweet smile? His face clearly tells me why the hell is this lady so weird.)

I glance at the back of his head as he shivers.After walking for only a year we stop in front of a big door.

[Do you get Deja vu?]

The door opens and all I could see is a giant table filled with foods. I open my mouth drooling from all the delicious scent.

( Ah how many years-)

" Duchess?"

I get cut off from my day dreaming and glance at the butler.

(Old man you ruined my day dreaming.)

The butler nervously guides me towards the table and as soon as I sit down, I start chugging down the foods like a hungry dog with my hands.

(I know I am getting looks from the maid since Scarlet barely ate anything but who cares.)

After finishing the foods I left the room with a satisfied look on my face while the maids got busy with cleaning the plates.

The hallway was getting dark with only flames lit on both of the side now.

(Time sure passes quickly here..)

The hallway is like a maze where there is no exit. I take a look at my surroundings..

(No one.. )

I quitely move towards the golden door which only took me 2 hours to find. I inhale some oxygen and pull the door handle. The door makes a farting sound which definitely wasn't in the novel...

(Does the door have lose motion or some?)

I quickly step inside the room closing the farting door.

[popopo.]

The room was also lit with flames, far away stood a giant bed, the moonlight coming through the windows and there was a pair of shirt and pant laying on the bed.

(Looks like a night dress from the historic Era but why is it laying on the bed? It should be in the closet.)

I look at the sparkly gown then at the night dress for infinity times as an evil smile blooms across my face.

(What if I just take it?)

__*__

"Finally! "

I jump on the bed, I am wearing the duke's night dress which was tied with multiple ribbons at the back. My back felt almost bare but who cares.

My wig was also worn off so that means I am in my real appearance right now. I swing my half hanging legs as I drift into thinking.

(This types of clothes were only worn by hosts or peasants so I wonder what it was doing inside the duke's room?)

I scratch my head filled with dandruff..

(what if the duke is really like 'that' the kind Clara mentioned.)

I roll over from the bed to the carpet situated on the ground as I yawn.

(I should just roll in this carpet so I can hide from the duke.)

[Ok...]

Suddenly I hear a knock on the door and flinch up from laying down and making myself a sushi.

(Shit! could it be that butler?!)

I grab my wig and stuck it to my head as panic rises on my face, not minding the shitty clothes I am wearing I grab the door handle and pull, expecting to see the butler.

But I open my eyes slowly just to find Clara.

"Oh! it was you."

I speak dryly but Clara doesn't react which makes me raise my eyebrow and inch but then I realise, she was inspecting my clothes.

(Shit I forgot I was wearing this.)

After a moment of awkward silence she finally speaks, "now I know why mistress gives of a different aura."

I let out a yelp as I stare down at her with panic. (Not this again..)

[Do you get deja vu ah!]
