Perfect Ending Plan for the Villainess in a Fairy Tale - Chapter 14
‘Phew. It’s hard to feed a baby.’
I poured the tea into Larissa’s cup.
“Now, you must try to drink the tea.”
Did you ever eat snacks or cookies while you were trapped?
All I knew about Larissa was that she shed diamond tears.
Because she inherited fairy blood.
Our mother was a fairy.
The mother passed away as soon as she gave birth to Larissa, so she had no memory of her mother.
‘Even if she actually had a memory, it couldn’t be a good memory.’
Because Marcia’s ability is to hear only the sound of pain, dissatisfaction, and anguish, I grew up resentful of the mother.
‘That’s probably the same for this kid…?’
I drank my share of tea and looked at the side face of the pale Larissa.
I didn’t see any of the innocence as a child on that face.
No, innocence wasn’t the problem, she seemed like she wasn’t even a human being because there was no expression at all.
‘Poor kid…’
I heard that the fairies shed tears of diamonds.
It was a long time ago that the fairy became extinct because of human greed.
‘The surviving fairies said they left the human world.’
In fact, the tears that afflicted Larissa were evidence that she had inherited the darkest blood of the fairies.
Thanks to that, this little child was repeating the lives of poor fairies.
‘If we weren’t related by fairy blood, we might have been very close to each other by now.’
Then I heard a knock.
Soon the butler came into the reception room.
“The Grand Duke has come.”
I jumped up from my seat.
It was finally the appearance of the prince who would save Larissa.
It was two people who followed after the butler.
One was a servant, who pushed in a wheelchair.
My gaze naturally turned to the person sitting in the wheelchair.
The person sitting in a wheelchair was an old man with gray hair.
‘Ugh? An old man…?’
I forgot the manners and only blinked my eyes with my mouth a little open.
The stern-looking old man soon opened his mouth.
“Was it you who asked to see me?”
… no way.
“The great… Grand Duke? Are you the Grand Duke?”
“Yes, I am.”
Why is everything I do like this?
‘Crazy… who is the writer?’
What kind of fairy tale is this! Larissa is only 13 years old now!
I screamed silently.
‘It can’t be, it can’t be! I’m sure that I was possessing in a fairy tale…’
Surely I saw Larissa’s tears falling into diamonds with my own eyes!
What am I thinking wrong?
It is certain that the prince appears and saves Larissa.
By the way, the prince of this country was a married man and even had a child with his mistress.
‘Such a man can’t be the ‘Prince’ of a fairy tale book.’
Other than that, the only person with the title of Prince is Grand Duke of Laurent…
So, do you mean this grandfather really is Larissa’s future husband?
‘No. I can’t allow it!’
It is only 5 days since I—not Marcia, who lived in Marcia’s body, became Larissa’s older sister.
But no matter how many days it has been, as her older sister, I can’t let this marriage happen!
The age difference is not eight, but eighty years old.
It is not a fairy tale no matter where I look!
‘I can’t allow it, I can’t!’
No way the Grand Duke is such an old man.
I looked straight at the old man in the wheelchair.
He was definitely a handsome man, even though he was too old to stand on his legs.
Although the face was full of wrinkles, the eyes were cool. His eyes were deep and his hands with thick joints were large.
If it were fifty years ago—no, even if he went back thirty years ago, he would have been the most handsome man in the empire.
Well, yes, if you’re a prince, that should happen. That’s because age is the problem!
‘… however, it was clearly written on the family tree that he was twenty-one years old.’
Is he a prince who has become an old man because of any curse?
Maybe if he gets a kiss like a frog prince, he will return to his youthful and handsome appearance…?
“Well, curse…”
I tried to ask if he was cursed but I quickly bite my mouth.
No matter how much I can tell, I know how to tell apart what I can’t say.
“Huh?”
The Grand Duke raised one eyebrow.
I once again confirmed with despair in the storm that struck me in my head.
“Grand Duke Fabian Laurent…?”
“What did you say? Fabian Laurent?”
“Oh, aren’t you?”
I stuttered.
The old man, who was thinking about something for a moment, said to the servant who was standing behind the wheelchair.
“Bring Fabian here.”
The servant ran out of the reception room.
The wet eyes peculiar to the old man looked at me sharply.
“He isn’t a grand duke, it won’t be until I die, but what’s your name?”
“Oh, my name is Marcia Blick. She is my younger sister, Larissa Blick.”
I hurriedly grabbed the hem of the dress with both hands and bowed my knees lightly to say hello.
“I brought the Young Master.”
The servant quickly returned. I turned my head to the entrance of the reception room.
There stood a young man who resembled an old man.
Black coriander hair, red eyes, slightly wet.
White and clean skin like white jade.
He washed and changed his clothes, now he looks like a different person.
A dazzlingly handsome man looked at me with a laughable smile.
“Arno!”
Arno—no, a man who was Arno replied in a calm manner.
“My full name is Fabian Laurent, but Arno is definitely one of my names. It’s my childhood name. For my personal business that is not related to the Dukedom, I prefer using that nickname, Lady Marcia.”
He called me Marcia, not Lady Blick.
‘No, that’s not the case!’
Fabian Laurent, Fabian Laurent was Arno.
Enlightenment passed as if I was hit by a lightning moment.
‘Yes, this man was a real prince!’
In the end, I came to the right place.
A young grand duke who will turn twenty-four in three years.
A man with the title of Prince, handsome, and wealthy.
This man has the qualifications of a prince in a fairy tale.
He just hasn’t inherited the title yet.
‘Because the former Grand Duke—no, the present Grand Duke lives.’
I soon realized what was the mistake I had made.
When I looked at the nobles’ directory, after seeing the death of Fabian’s parents, I didn’t know whether his grandfather was alive or dead.
‘No, who would think his parents died and his grandfather would be alive?’
But I should have checked thoroughly.
Because there are a lot of such things in reality.
‘Oh, you idiot.’
I barely put up with wanting to squeeze my head off.
Arno—no, Fabian laughed and strode toward the wheelchair.
“Did you call me, Grandpa?”
“Come on Fabian, this is your guest.”
The Grand Duke raised his hand.
Then the servant quickly approached and began to push the wheel control.
“Excuse me first because I’m tired, Lady Blick. Then, enjoy your time.”
“Oh, yes. Thank you.”
I nodded to the Grand Duke.
I could feel Fabian laughing and watching me.
As soon as the Grand Duke’s wheelchair disappeared from view, I turned around and stared at him.
“Did you hide your real name on purpose?”
“I did.”
He laughed and admitted softly.
Hearing that we are going to the Grand Duke’s mansion at the restaurant, you must have been interested.
That’s why you saw us back then.
It must have looked very suspicious because two young girls said they were going to his house.
Yeah, if it was me, I wouldn’t have wanted to reveal my identity to strangers too.
But why am I so angry?
Though I was angry, I suppressed the feeling in my heart.
‘Don’t forget that this is in a fairy tale.’
The prince and the beautiful girl who fell in love with each other at first sight will be happy forever now.
That is the ending of the fairy tale, and I just pushed the ending a little earlier.
Now it was time to hand over Larissa’s hand to the prince.
‘Then I can go live my life.’
I looked back at Larissa, frozen and not moving, and then again looked at Fabian.
‘Well…’
… no matter how much I look at it, that face isn’t the one in love.
