Chapter 237
Time indifferently passes by, regardless of the chaos surrounding it. Thê source of this content n/o/v/(el)bi((n))
It was the same when Violet shuddered under the infamy of being called a villainess, and it remains so now.
Indeed, it was absurd to say that the current Violet was living peacefully.
Her much-detested half-sister was foolishly indulging in her stubbornness and wreaking havoc...
...And she was in a cold war with her own blood brother.
Amidst this, she also received an unwelcome confession.
If her life were to be depicted as a series of undulations, this period would certainly be the most tumultuous.
Nevertheless, there was a sense of stability.
There were many things to be concerned about, but not to the extent of being completely overwhelmed.
Of course, this was entirely Violet’s own perspective.
With nothing from her surroundings affecting her, how could she be swayed?
Many were worn out by her indifference.
One of them was Aileen.
Violet clicked her tongue as Mary relayed information about Aileen.
“Where on earth do you pick up such information?”
“Hehe, I have my ways.”
No matter how rife with rumors high society was, there had to be a limit.
Yet Mary had managed to gather some incredible intel.
“Do you think His Imperial Highness will really fall for Ai... um, Lady Aileen?”
“Well...”
What Mary had dredged up this time was the information that Aileen had approached Rajaden.
Where Mary obtained such information was a mystery, but the fact that Aileen had already approached a foreign prince before lent this rumor some credibility.
Knowing Aileen’s character well, Violet thought indifferently,
What was the reason for Lady Tolofia and Aileen becoming friends in the first place?
Their goals did not precisely align.
Now that Aileen had begun approaching Rajaden, she had turned those she had barely made allies into enemies.
Could the crown prince truly fall for her?
Considering his famously charming appearance and his protective instincts, it was possible.
Violet furrowed her brow slightly at the thought.
If he did fall for her, Violet could simply flee and go into hiding.
If Aileen continued to pursue her, and Rajaden, utterly smitten, decided to declare war...
Then a rebellion would surely erupt within the empire.
The path to the nation’s ruin was clearly visible.
Violet chuckled at these absurd thoughts, but then she suddenly became serious.
As Mary chatted about various other topics, including Aileen’s activities, she suddenly saw Violet’s serious expression and hiccupped.
“Ah, Milady?”
“No, it’s nothing. Continue. Was it Anne at the fruit store?”
Mary’s eyes quivered. It seemed Violet had heard everything, and so she was wondering whether it was okay to continue the conversation.
Violet stroked Mary’s head.
She had suddenly become serious for a reason—she had imagined something.
It didn’t matter to her that Aileen was approaching the crown prince or even if she managed to turn the people of Everett against her again and cast her as the villain.
She could just leave if it came to that.
But, what if.
...What if Aileen approached Aldin as well?
