After a long and stressful day at the academy , I was finally able to return home. I felt both mentally and physically exhausted.

None of the classes went well for me and I fucked all of them up. Which caused everyone around me to make fun of me and laugh behind my back even more.

Jesse wasn't a bad student , he was obviously smart , since he was the villain. But yeah , I'm obviously not him.

"I just want to go back to my room and rest." ,  I said as I walked through the hallways of the big mansion.

I never thought I would enjoy coming back to this place , but it's definitely better than being at the academy. Atleast in here people can't openly bully me and show their hatred for me.

"Yo." , I suddenly heard the butler behind me.

Or not. I was wrong about the last part.

My mood suddenly became sour after hearing the butler's voice , I didn't even want to turn around to look at him.

Just his face pissed me off , I didn't even want to think about what kind of expression he could be making right now.

Was he smirking? Or maybe he looked pissed off? Or maybe his emotionless expression that pissed me off to the core? Either way  , I did not enjoy his company even in the slightest.

"You're back already? What a shame , me and the others enjoyed it a lot when you were not here."

"Figures." , I said as I started walking forward.

I didn't even want to turn around , I completely ignored him and continued walking to my destination. Which was obviously my room.

"I just want some peace and quiet please." , I said inside of my head.

"Oi , are you ignoring me? Yeah , well  , sorry but you can't get rid of me." , Ziah kept the conversation going even though I clearly showed my displeasure.

He figured out that the best way to piss me off and generally destroy my mood is to just stick around me. 

He stuck around me like he was glued to me. 

The thing that pissed me most about him how fast his moods switch.

One day he wants to kill me and doesn't even want to look at me , but another day he will try to talk with me and act all nice just to kill my mood.

"How was school? Did you get bullied a lot? Did people beat you up?" , he said as he was walking beside me.

I refused to even glance at him.

"Aw , what a shame. Considering how your pretty face is still in good shape then I'm gonna take it as a no." , he said with a fake sad expression. More like he was just dissapointed.

"Seriously now. Nobody really beat you up? It's so sad that none of the nobles could do me a favour and punch you in the face or something." , he continued his rambling.

"Can you not do that yourself?" , I asked him still facing the front and not looking at him.

"Uh , are you really that dense?" 

Every single one of his comments kept pissing me off.

"Obviously , I can't do that. I would lose my job. But it's different for nobles , they can run around and do whatever they want and nobody can punish them for that if they're someone of a high rank. What a world we live in , don't we?" , he answered my question.

He was obviously correct about that part , I already knew that much. 

Nobles can get away with a lot of things and others can't do anything about that. 

"Either way , I heard some rumours that you're apparently the laughing stock in your academy right now? I'm so proud of them , truly." , he continued his rambling.

I speed up my pace , because I didn't want to continue the conversation. Which was obvious.

Yet he kept following me around and walking right next to me.

Which was obviously incorrect etiquette but not that this man cares about these kinds of things.

I already got to the stairs and as I was about to start running upstairs  I bumped into someone.

It was none other than Kayla's personal maid. Khloe.

"Oh , sorry for that." , I apologized to her since even though Khloe has never said that she liked me. She never really made it obvioust that she disliked me either. 

She was hiding her hatred for me the entire time , which I actually kind of appreciated.

She was one of the few people in this mansion who didn't give me a massive headache every time I saw them.

"It's okay , young master." , she bowed down and quickly walked down the stairs.

Before she made it to the 1st floor , I noticed that she glanced at the butler next to me. Her cheeks were rosy pink and it felt like her eyes were sparkling.

"No way...Does she have a crush on him?" , I never knew about that because it was never mentioned in the manhwa. Yet that seems to be the case.

She had those love struck eyes of a maiden in love.

"How could she fall for someone like that..ew.." , I thought to myself.

What a shame.

After I made it up the stairs , the butler has suprisingly stopped following me and I was finally free for a bit. Probably because I was going to my room and he doesn't want to step foot in there. 

I grabbed the handle of the door and opened it with all I had. I just wanted to fall into my bed after an exhausting day.

"Huh?" , I heard a voice inside of my room.

I looked at the person standing inside of my bedroom and yet again  , it was none other than Kayla herself.

Rummaging through my stuff again.

Also , if I haven't made it clear enough yet , the mc cant fight back yet cuz he will literally die

let's make a scenario :

the mc (Jesse) fights back --> his father blames him and disowns him --> Ziah (the butler) kills him cause Jesse isnt a noble anymore so he cant get in trouble --> the end
