Why Did I Become the Villainess?-Chapter 205 - Arrival Of The Illorians

"Lady Csille?"

I immediately stood up when I heard that familiar voice. I looked back and saw Princess Paislee. I smile awkwardly at her.

It really happens. But this time, I wasn't able to hide. The female lead really caught us.

Prince Fraser stands up. "Sir Farren, you're here. Lady Csille sneakily comes here behind your back. She didn't know that you lock the entrance at night, so she didn't have any choice but to stay for the night."

Princess Paislee looks at me before she looks at Prince Fraser. She then smiles at us and shakes her head. "You don't need to explain. I understand. I am here to inform you, your highness, about the arrival of the Illorian City people. Prince Rufus's messenger bird just arrived this morning with a letter from Ruler Laird. Help is on its way to Alderrdeen. He also mentioned that in just two days' time, they will arrive here."

I immediately stood up when I heard what she said. Ruler Laird's help is coming. It means we can get Prince Fraser out of his confinement.

That's great news. At least, I can be at ease. All we need to do is to wait for Ruler Laird's arrival.

"That great then. How about that—"

I didn't let Prince Fraser finish his words and immediately gathered my things. "Your highness, I will be going now. Thank you for letting me stay in your place. I'll be going now."

I didn't wait for the two of them to reply and rush towards the entrance. It's a good thing Princess Paislee left the gate open.

I look back at the building where Prince Fraser is staying and sigh.

Ysavel, let's forget everything that happened last night. That's right. That night never happened. I never spend the night with Prince Fraser alone.

________________________________

I sneakily sit on my seat. Lilla immediately looks at me. "Lady Csille, why are you late?"

I shake my head at her and listen to what the professor is saying.

How can I not be late? I ate my breakfast with Prince Fraser. also I rushed towards my dorm to freshen myself up. Of course, I will be late.

Our Professor continues to teach her lesson while I force myself to focus on the lesson. However, my mind couldn't help but remember all the things that happened last night.

"You are my fiancée, Csille. You are my future Queen. How can I bear to hear other people insult you like that?"

"Do you feel guilty?" He shakes his head. "Don't be. I never regretted what I did. I still believe that I did the right thing, and if I turn back in time, I will do it again. I will never let anyone insult you like that."

I feel my face heats up, so I slump my head on my table to hide my face.

"Lady Csille!"

I immediately sit up straight and look anxiously at my Professor.

How can I forget that I am still in my class? Jeez, Ysavel. This is what you get from letting your emotions get a hold of you.

"Do we have any problem here, Lady Csille?" Our Professor asked me with her eyebrow raised.

I shake my head. "I'm sorry, Professor. I just have a headache."

She shakes her head. "You're probably staying up late reviewing again. Go to the clinic today. I'll excuse you in my class."

"Thank you, Professor."

Although I feel guilty for lying but I think it's better if I was out of the class. My mind is drifting away from her lessons, so it's useless even if I stay there.

I'll probably just check on Leander too.

I looked around the clinic and found Leander busy reading something. I tap his shoulder and smile at him.

"Senior. It looks like you're quite busy today. Is everything okay?"

Leander frowned at me. He then stood up and put the back of his palm to my forehead. "You don't have a fever. Do you have headaches again?"

I shake my head at him and sit on one of the chairs. "No, I don't. I'm perfectly fine."

Leander looks at me. "If you're fine, what are you doing here? As far as I know, you should have class right now, right?"

I hum to him as a yes and. "My Professor sent me here because she thought I had a headache."

"You lied?" He sounds like he couldn't believe that I just did that.

I sigh and lay on one of the vacant beds in the clinic. "You can say it like that."

"You really did?"

I close my eyes and try to force my mind to stop thinking about what happened last night. "Yeah. Why? Do you always think I'm upright? Also, didn't you say I need some rest so I won't overstress myself? I'm doing it now."

I heard Leander chuckle. "Okay, if you say so. You can rest as long as you want. I'll be doing my job here. Call me if you need anything."

I just hum to him and continue to relax my mind.

Ysavel! You need to stop thinking about what happened last night. Forget about it, okay?

________________________________

"Lady Csille, are you okay? You were excused the whole day. When I looked for you in the clinic, Doctor Leander told me that you had already left. Are you okay?"

Lilla bombarded me with questions the moment I entered the room. I smile at her. "I'm okay. I just didn't feel okay yesterday, so I took a daybreak. I am now okay. I apologize for worrying you."

Lilla sigh. "That's good to know that you're okay. I was worried that something had happened to you. Thank goodness I was wrong."

I just smile at her and take out the stuff I need for our class this morning.

"Oh, by the way, Professor Joachim looked for you yesterday. I just told him that you were excused for the whole day."

I frown. Prince Joachim is looking for me again? But for what reason? "Do you know why he is looking at me?"

Lilla shakes her head. "He didn't mention anything about it. He just told me that if I saw you, I need to tell you that he was looking for you. Maybe because of your research? He's your advisor, right?"

I nod my head at her. "I'll just talk to him later. Maybe it's because of my research. I told him last time that I have some questions regarding my presentation."

Lilla groan. "Presentation? I haven't even started with mine. Lady Csille, can you share with me how do you finished your research? I'm so envious of your intelligence."

I just smiled at her and explained to her what I did to finish my research and my presentation. Although I'm still in the process of finishing it, but compared to others, my progress is really faster.

After explaining things to Lilla, our class started. We have straight four hours class in the morning, so Lilla and I feel exhausted after.

Lilla and I are about to go to the cafeteria to eat our lunch when we bump into Rufus. Lilla immediately got flustered when she saw Rufus. She clumsily does a little curtsy. "Greeting, your highness, Prince Rufus. Are you looking for Lady Csille?"

Rufus flashed his sweet smile at Lilla. "You must be Lady Lilla? It was nice meeting you."

Lilla becomes more flustered because of Rufus. I shake my head at him and block Lilla from his sight.

"And when did you become such a person? Can you let the poor lady go? Can't you see how flustered she is?"

Rufus peeks behind my back, and he scratches his nape. "I'm sorry, I was just teasing her. I apologize, Lady Lilla."

Lilla just shakes her head. "It's okay, Prince Rufus." She then looks at Rufus and me. "Lady Csille, I think his highness, Prince Rufus has something to say to you. I'll just leave you two alone. I'll see you later, okay?"

Before I could respond to her, she was nowhere to be found.

I heard Rufus chuckle. "That friend of yours seems interesting."

I raised my eyebrow at him and shook my head. Although Rufus is a playful person, he is not the type of person who plays someone's heart. So, I'm sure he doesn't have any plan towards Lilla.

"What are you doing here?"

Usually, Rufus won't roam around the college building. Since he experienced being flocked by students the first time he arrived here.

"I'm fetching you. The others are waiting for you. We have something to talk about."

The two of us walk to where Princess Paislee and Leander are waiting for us. While on our way, Rufus asked me a question that I didn't know expect him to know.

"Purplany, is it true?" He then leans on my ears. "That you sneaked in to see Prince Fraser last night?"

My eyes widen, and I look at him. How did this guy know about this? Did Princess Paislee spill it to him?

Rufus laughs. "You don't need to be shocked. Sir Farren accidentally told me about it." Rufus elbows my side teasingly. "I didn't know you missed my cousin that much. You even sneak in to just spend time with him. You even spend the night with him."

I scoff at Rufus. "Oh please, don't put meaning to it. I only plan to check on him and leave after, but I didn't know that Sir Farren would lock Prince Fraser inside the building. We have no other choice, okay? I don't want other people to know about what I did, so I just stay the night."

Rufus is about to tease me again, but because I glare at him, he just shut his mouth.

In just a few minutes, we stop in a private room in one of the restaurants inside the campus.

Princess Paislee and Leander both look at us. Princess Paislee immediately stood up when she saw us walking inside the private room.

"Lady Csille, it's a good thing you're here now."

"Is there something wrong? I thought everything's okay now since the aid from Illorian City will be coming tomorrow." I sit on the chair and look at them.

Princess Paislee shakes her head. "There's no problem. We were just excited to talk about what we will do with the Illorians arrival. Now that you are here, we can talk about what we will do next."

Illorians...

Tomorrow is the day of their arrival. It is also the day when we can get Prince Fraser out of his confinement. We need to make sure to welcome them properly so they can help us with our problem.

Although I already mentioned Prince Fraser's current situation in the letter that I sent to Ruler Laird, and I know he already told his people what to do, we still do not want any mistake.

We then started to talk about what we would do when the Illorians arrived at the Alderrdeen City. Rufus already informed Principal Germund about their arrival. He also told us that the Principal prepares the necessary lodging and everything that the Illorians will need.

All we need to do is to talk about who will welcome them. Show them around the school and to their lodging. Who will explain the current situation of Prince Fraser, and how can they help us. We also talk about other things concerning Illorians' stay in Alderrdeen.

Since we are the ones who ask for their help, we need to make sure that they will be comfortable during their stay in this City. We need to make sure that nothing will happen to them. Or else, all of us couldn't explain to Ruler Laird what happened.

Rufus clasps his fingers. "Is everything clear? Based on the letter they sent. They will arrive at Alderrdeen City in the afternoon. So, Csille, I need you to excuse yourself from all your afternoon classes. We need you to be there. You're the goddaughter of the Great Ruler, and the Illorians will surely look for you."

I nod my head at Rufus. "I will work on that this afternoon. I will talk to my Professors about it. I'm sure they will allow me. So, you shouldn't worry."

Rufus didn't say anything and just nodded his head before he continued to eat his lunch. We all eat our lunch peacefully.

It's the first time, after a few days of being anxious, that we are eating our meal with ease.

"Oh, Lady Csille. Prince Fraser wants to talk to you this afternoon. He told me that you should come with me after your classes."

I immediately got frozen because of Princess Paislee's words. What does Prince Fraser want from me again?
