The Villainous Noblewoman Is About to Be Forced into Love, Isn't This Wrong?
Chapter 294: Can You Entrust Loraviel to Me?
Liana and Loraviel, each carrying a bag, returned to Loraviel’s residence.
When Miss Anna saw that Loraviel was actually letting the young lady carry things, she was just about to say a few words but was stopped by Liana.
Liana’s mood was very stable now. She smiled and looked at Anna. “It was I who requested to do this. Loraviel usually doesn’t let me do these things at all. Today, I happen to want to show off my skills. I hope you can give me a chance.”
Anna perhaps also realized something. She didn’t continue speaking, but instead nodded. “I’ve heard from Loraviel before that Pettiness Liana’s culinary skills are quite remarkable. Then I will look forward to it.”
“Loraviel really has told you everything.” Liana smiled and walked into the kitchen with her.
“It’s a little humble. I hope you don’t mind, Your Highness.” When it was just the two of them, Loraviel also relaxed a lot.
“You have the complete ability to build a better house for Miss Anna now, don’t you? Why not do so?” Loraviel’s home could only be said to be average, not too good, not too bad, but she had the complete ability to do better.
“Mother prefers this kind of small house. It’s enough for a normal life. It’s fine as long as it’s to her liking. If she were to live in a palace, she might not be used to it,” Loraviel said gently, “She has been used to this kind of life for a long time. So, let’s just maintain the status quo. And thank you, Your Highness, for your suggestion before.”
Liana had mentioned this to her before. With the appearance of the demons, the world had begun to become turbulent. Should she bring Miss Anna into the Venus Estate? It would be convenient to take care of her, and also safer. She could go back and visit her at any time.
But Loraviel had refused. There were royal knights protecting her here, so it wouldn’t be too dangerous. Besides, Anna was more used to life here.
“I see.” Liana also knew this principle. It wasn’t that what you felt was good was good for others. She also had a place she was used to living in. There was no need to force it.
“Speaking of which, how much more about me have you told Miss Anna?” Liana asked.
“Apart from some things that cannot be said, I’ve basically told my mother everything,” Loraviel said after thinking for a moment.
“Once you started, you couldn’t stop, could you?” Liana sighed. She estimated she would be like that in the future as well.
When talking to your family about the person you love, the words of praise simply cannot stop. Before you know it, you’ve said a lot.
“Mm, by the time I came back to my senses, my mother was already looking at me dotingly. She could see that I was very happy,” Loraviel said.
“Then I’ll have to show off my skills, so as not to disappoint... Mother.” Liana rolled up her sleeves.
“Isn’t this too much...” Anna looked at the entire table full of dinner.
“I made a lot without realizing it,” Liana said. She also found that she had made a bit too much. It felt like a lot would be wasted.
“Why don’t you try it? I’ve learned a lot in the Venus Dukedom,” Loraviel said.
“Which one did you make, and which one did Her Highness make?” Anna could originally distinguish Loraviel’s cooking, but she didn’t know that Her Highness’ would be so similar to hers. Some habits, the combination of dishes, were all the same as Loraviel’s.
“You’ll know after you try it. Although I feel there’s no difference, after all, many things were taught to me by Her Highness,” Loraviel said with a laugh.
“It has nothing to do with me. It’s because she worked hard to learn, and she put in the effort to get to this point. I didn’t do anything myself,” Liana said with a smile.
“Your Highness...”
“Shouldn’t the elder start first?” Liana interrupted Anna. “Why don’t you try it? I don’t know if it suits your taste.”
“Then I will graciously accept.” Anna put a piece of meat into her mouth. The taste was a little different from what she had eaten before.
The charred fragrance of the roasted meat, neutralized by the seasoning, had a unique flavor.
“A deliciousness I’ve never tasted before.”
Seeing that Miss Anna did not show any expression of difficulty, Liana breathed a sigh of relief.
“Is this Her Highness’ cooking? It’s a bit surprising.”
“Surprising?” Liana wasn’t sure what that meant.
“Surprisingly delicious. To be ashamed to say, I had always thought that the young ladies of the nobility would leave these things to their servants to prepare. So the fact that you can cook «N.o.v.e.l.i.g.h.t» is a bit surprising to me,” Anna said directly.
“It is indeed rather rare.” Liana did not deny this. After all, it was the truth.
After coming to this world, she had also rarely cooked. She cooked mainly because the food before was too monotonous, and she just wanted a change of taste.
Afterward, as long as she could avoid doing it herself, she was too lazy to. It was mainly because she didn’t have the time and had slowly gotten used to the food of this world.
They chatted a lot, but it was basically all awkward small talk, about matters in the academy, and about Loraviel.
The food on the table was also slowly diminishing. And as the food decreased, that topic also got closer and closer. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞
Liana also began to get nervous.
How should I bring it up so that it doesn’t seem too abrupt?
What should I do to make Miss Anna believe me?
Liana thought a lot, hesitated for a long time, and finally made up her mind to speak. “Mo...”
The moment she spoke, she froze on the spot. “No, no! Miss Anna!”
Liana felt like she was about to faint. What on earth am I saying! How did I say what I was thinking in my head!
She could clearly feel her body temperature rising rapidly. Her face must be beet red!
To act so embarrassingly right after meeting, leaving such a bad impression on her. What should I do!
Maybe it’s better to just let me go and deal with the demon race! Dealing with them feels a hundred times simpler than this!
At this moment, Loraviel suddenly took her hand. “This is the first time I’ve seen you so nervous, Your Highness. Leave the rest to me.”
“No need. I’ll do it myself.” Liana took a deep breath. She had already embarrassed herself at the beginning; she had to get it back.
She stood up, came before Anna, and lowered her head. “Miss Anna, may I ask you to entrust Loraviel to me? I will be good to her. I will absolutely make her happy.”
If she couldn’t even say these words properly, how could she make her believe them?
“That’s how it is, Mother. Her Highness is very good to me, and we have also confessed our feelings to each other.” Loraviel’s and Liana’s hands were intertwined. “This time, it was also Her Highness’ request that we come back to see you and tell you about this.”
“So you did do it,” Anna said, looking at the serious expressions on their faces. Although she was stunned for a moment, she quickly understood what was happening.
“Mm, I did it. I have pursued my happiness,” Loraviel said with a happy smile.
“That’s good.” Anna nodded with satisfaction.
“Is there nothing else you want to ask? For example...”
“For example, the matter of Princess Mephilia?” Anna said.
“...Mm,” Liana nodded.
“Your Highness, didn’t you tell me? you will bring happiness to Loraviel. That alone is enough. Was that just something you said to comfort me?” Anna said with a laugh.
“Of course not! I am very serious! My feelings for Mephilia are real, and my feelings for Loraviel are also real. But I will not treat them differently. I will do my best to make them happy! Although, for these words to come from my mouth now, the credibility is a bit low...” As Liana spoke, her voice became much smaller.
“Your words are enough, Your Highness. I can also see Loraviel’s happiness from the bottom of her heart,” Anna said with a laugh.
Liana could finally breathe a sigh of relief. To be able to get her support was really great.
“However.”
But her two words made Liana’s heart jump to her throat again.
“However, what?”
“Your Highness, have you explained this matter clearly to Princess Mephilia? As a princess of the Lisat Kingdom, what is her opinion of Loraviel?” Anna asked.
“This...” This made Liana a little embarrassed.
“This is my matter. I was the one who suddenly inserted myself into the lives of Princess Liana and Princess Mephilia. So, I need to prove to her that I truly love you and am willing to give everything,” Loraviel spoke up at this moment.
This was her problem. She could not let Her Highness bear this.
“This is also my problem. If I...”
“If Your Highness had handled everything well, I certainly would not have fallen in love with you. Then...”
“Eh! No, no!” Liana shook her head. “I have no problem... No! I have a problem! But the problem is not this! This is a problem we must face together. It shouldn’t be borne by you alone.”
“Your Highness, you are a little too nervous...” Loraviel said helplessly.
“Can you blame me for being nervous?!” Liana pouted. Who wouldn’t be nervous in this situation!
Anna, on the other hand, smiled, pursing her lips. “Thank you, Your Highness. you have made Loraviel find happiness.”
“Miss Anna, this is mutual. At this moment, I am also very happy,” Liana said with a laugh. “Besides, you don’t have to address me like that. It’s a bit too formal.”
“Then when will you also change how you address me? Just like earlier,” Anna said, looking at Liana with anticipation.
