"I'm asking you right now, you're going to an orphanage."
"Huh? Yeah."
What, when I nodded wondering about it, my brother looked more and more grumpy.
"You must be the Duke's maid, right? Why should a beautiful nobleman like you go to a place where there are dirty, parentless, poorly educated orphans? I just don't get it."
"Brother."
He's my brother who only likes beautiful things. It's easy to imagine that I wouldn't have a good image of an orphanage, but I still thought it was just too much to say.
"Brother. Your current words, please withdraw. Excuse me, everyone."
"I don't even think that's your word. The orphanage is an orphanage. I'm not withdrawing."
"Brother!
Absurd his voice, my brother said as he looked at me with cold eyes.
"Okay? Lili, you are the only daughter of the Duke of Beltran family. Beautiful and clever. We are chosen people, not like orphans or nobles there. You know that, don't you?
……
I chewed my lips off with words I could tell you.
I know what my brother says.
Until then, I thought the same thing, and I'm sure I would have agreed with you then.
But I got to know the kids in the orphanage. And I became friends with Chloe, the daughter of the Count family that my brother would not approve of.
I don't regret that.
On the contrary, as much as I want to compliment myself for saying that I wanted to go to the orphanage that day.
So I couldn't snort at my brother's words.
"... all the kids are good kids. You honestly admire me. Well, it's hard to say it's beautiful. I don't even take a bath every day, and my clothes are always someone's back. But what does that mean?"
"Lili......"
My brother stares at me like a surprise.
But the truth is, most of all, I was surprised.
- Oh, at some point, I was starting to think that way.
Little by little, I thought it would have changed. But invisible things are hard to understand change. It is often said that although I intend to change, I actually do.
I was wondering, too, that the top surface alone hasn't changed to a deep place.
But.
Now, the words I said are the words I would never have said before. And, indisputably, I was out of my mind right now.
I don't want my children to be said badly.
I don't think it's worth anything but the beautiful. There's no way I can tell you how glad I am to be friends with Chloe that I can only find value in high-ranking people.
"Lili, you, what are you talking about..."
"What, I'm just telling you what I mean. I have no idea what your brother is saying."
"You can't possibly not understand, can you? You and I knew each other better than anyone else in this mansion. Look, you know what I mean? I'm just worried about you. Beautiful you don't look good in an orphanage or anything. Even the dress will get dirty. You will be met by the miserable. I don't want to see you."
"It's a disagreement of views. I don't think so, and your brother's words are unpleasant right now."
"I'm more unpleasant! I can't believe you're cute and beautiful, going to an orphanage... disgusting. Never go again. Don't worry about me any more."
A brother who distorts his face. But I felt my heart go cold.
I thought my brother's words were different now.
"Worried? Brother. That's not true. My brother is not worried about me. I just don't like being made to do something I don't like. That's all."
"Lili......"
"To your brother's taste, please don't let me go out with you. I don't agree with your brother."
My brother looks at me with the face that I didn't expect him to say that.
"No... I really, really want you..."
"Then why don't you listen to me? I told them they were good kids. But your brother wouldn't even listen to me."
"You bet! 'Cause those are dirty! It's not worth living in something dirty. You can forgive my little sister for being involved in such a filthy thing!
Hearing words like throwing up and throwing up, I was feeling my heart cold.
Even so far, does my brother still deny what he's trying to take care of me?
"Okay."
"Lili!"
When I punctuate the words, my brother looks like a ho. I said cold to my brother like that.
"It's good and I see that your brother doesn't understand how I feel. No more, a waste of time. I'm going back to my room.... Sorry, please don't talk to me for a while. Because I can't handle it calmly."
"Lili!"
"Let's go, Luke."
Ignoring my brother's voice, I took Luke and left the library behind.
Exactly. My brother doesn't seem to follow me either.
Walking down the hallway for a while, Luke approximated and talked.
"The... lady. Was it good?
"It's not good. But I couldn't forgive you. You don't have a choice."
"Lady Villain Warrant" is hated in her body. To avoid that, I should have tried to improve my relationship with Brother Victor.
I'm supposed to be, but for some reason, I'm selling fights from myself to another person who didn't even hate me.
Not good. Not very good, on the contrary. Not good at all.
"This probably means you're approaching 'Villain Lady' from yourself. But it's good. Because I don't regret it."
Though, I'd probably need to be a little calm, too.
As he was sighing, Luke said no.
"No, ma'am. I'm sure you'll stay away from The Villain Lady."
"Really? Definitely earlier, so I think your brother hated you. Still?"
"Yes. Still,"
Luke nodding like he was sure. he said with a small grin.
"The lady's anger is not wrong. I thought the lady angry for the orphanage kids was very pretty. So if Master Hugo hates you, what's the problem? The lady hasn't done anything wrong. I guarantee that."
"... it's disgusting when you let go and compliment me."
Somehow I laugh bitterly.
When he praises me, I don't feel well. But it wasn't a bad feeling.
"... thanks, Luke"
"No, because I just stated what I thought"
"Yes."
Don't say any more and go back to your room silently.
The silence wasn't short, but I was feeling comfortable air.
