Lost in the Path of Fate

Chapter 59 - I'm the Villain? Sure! (2)

Arda's hands were shaking as she stared at the empty teacup in front of the young master.

Everyone's gazes were directed at her.

It was just her first time attempting to step back up in high society along with Elena but she's immediately getting crushed right at the moment she spoke.

Her eyes drifted towards the young master.

Pier was again, eating on a cookie based on how his head was slightly moving.

It shouldn't be like this! It should be the young master who's apologizing towards them.

She then turned her head towards Elena but she also froze when she saw that the daughter of the Marquis was stiff as well in her position.

They were just planning to embarrass him a little bit.

How did it escalate to this level quickly?

She felt shame creep up in her entire being as she recalled the things Pier had said.

Her education was insulted.

She was called a servant right in front of the other nobles.

Arda's entire identity was compared to an insignificant bug in a matter of a minute.

'What... is this...' She thought while having her eyes wide.

Haven't they done this many times already? Each and every time they tried to guilt trip him, he would come apologizing to them before!

She hesitatingly started to step towards Pier and she was gulping many times.

All the while after their household was taken over by the young master, she avoided him like the plague.

She kept a silent profile while trying to regain her connections as well as Elena.

She hid from the eyes of the nobility.

But she did not even last a few minutes and she's already crumbling down.

When she arrived at the young master's side, she silently glared at him.

"I told you to leave me but you wouldn't. I hate talking to some nobody like you." Pier whispered loud enough for the both of them to hear and Arda was again, stunned in her spot.

"Pathetic. You can't even stand up for yourself. What a waste." Pier sneaked a mocking stare at her and her face became beet red.

"Young master!" Elena tried to call him but Pier already had so many things running in his mind.

"What? Are you still going to talk about how I got mad for you trying to touch me?" He asked and stood up.

He also made the chair face the lady and sat back on it right after.

"Isn't it a general rule not to touch any members of our household without our permission? Do you think we're friends?" Pier asked and he gave her a lopsided grin.

"You aren't my friend, not in the slightest. You should've known that the moment you stole his highness from me." Pier was laughing in his head so much.

'Pft. You and him can go die for all I care.' His eyes drifted towards the baffled crown prince.

"Are you that eager to touch me? Are you a pervert, my lady?" He asked in a nonchalant manner and everyone's favorite action must have been gasping because they did another sets of it as they heard Pier's question.

Pervert.

He called Elena a pervert for trying to touch him.

Just like Arda, her eyes widened and she was left speechless.
