I Reincarnated As A Villainess, But Why Did I Become A Cat Butler Instead? - Chapter 252
Chapter 126.2
Then, in a very merciful tone, he reassured the butler.
“Let’s discuss this matter separately tomorrow and assure the employees not to worry. It’s nothing serious.”
“Yes… understood.”
“Then, let’s go for now. I’ll call you if I need anything.”
“Yes.”
The butler nodded shakily and disappeared. Rowaine, who was so pale with fear, furrowed her brows when he suddenly sent the butler away.
“Well, about the room…”
Dimitri, happy in his heart, suggested.
“If there are no beds that work, there’s nothing we can do. If that’s the case, Rowaine can use this room.”
“What about Dimitri?”
“I’ll just sleep on the sofa in the study.”
“A-Are you sure it’s all right?”
“Don’t worry, and just go in. They say the ghosts in this mansion don’t harm people.”
Dimitri opened the door. As the butler had said, the couple’s shared bedroom was remarkably spacious, spanning the entire fourth floor.
Rowaine hesitated before finally stepping into the room.
At that moment, lightning flashed, followed by a frightening crack of thunder.
In the next instant, Dimitri was smiling as he comforted Rowaine, who had buried her face in his chest, trembling. With a voice filled with despair, she burst into tears.
“The room is too big, huungg…!”

“….”
I immersed myself deeply in the bathwater, feeling completely lost as I grappled with this unbelievable reality. In the meanwhile, Agwen was chattering away to herself.
“This is quite unusual. The Madam is letting me help you during the bath.”
‘I couldn’t help it.’
I sighed in frustration.
The shame and awkwardness of exposing myself to others couldn’t be compared to fear. In the mansion where ghosts appeared, on a day when the storm raged and thunder and lightning crashed, I couldn’t muster the courage to bathe alone, so I asked her to accompany me.
As I continued to sigh heavily, Agwen tilted her head and asked worriedly.
“But why do you keep sighing?”
Ajeng asked with concern, noticing my repeated sighs.
“No, nothing.”
I answered weakly and muttered to myself.
‘Sasha, you naughty thing. You cry and follow me around crying, saying you want to be with me, but then you say you want your own room? Isn’t that too much?’
Since I couldn’t bear to be alone, I suggested sharing a room with Sasha, who I thought would like it, but to my surprise, she arrogantly refused.
“I’m all grown up now. I can have my own room!”
It felt like such a betrayal.
‘When she first came to Blois, she sneaked into my bed saying she didn’t want to be alone!’
This was all because of Abaddon.
Before making a deal with the demon, Sasha used to cling and cuddle me, even sneaking into my bed at night and sleeping at my feet. However, after making a deal with Abaddon, she became so proud of becoming an adult cat that she stopped hugging me often and stopped coming to my room at night.
‘The beds are all broken, so how can I sleep in a place where ghosts will come out?’
Coco and Sasha took up guest rooms one by one as if they weren’t afraid of ghosts at all. They could sleep anywhere, even if there wasn’t a bed anyway.
‘If that’s the case, why don’t we sleep together anywhere in this spacious room? Why are they saying they don’t like that?’
Those cats.
I buried my face in my knees, wincing at the sound of thunder outside before I looked back at Agwen, who was washing my back.
“Agwen… Do you want to sleep with me?”
“Yes?”
“No… The room is spacious… and the bed is large too…”
Agwen laughed as if she had heard a funny joke.
“The Duke will be furious.”
I buried my face in my knees again.
‘Yeah, if I kick Dimitri out of the study and sleep with Ajeng, the employees will think it’s really strange…’
Anyway, Agwen didn’t know anything about our contract.
‘Why am I so scared? Can’t I overcome something like ghosts? Yes, let’s take this opportunity to shake off our fears!’
Since I couldn’t sleep with Dimitri.
I finished my bath with determination and stepped out of the bathroom. It seemed that Dimitri was still washing up.
Having dismissed Agwen, I sat on the spacious bed, steeling my resolve.
‘When Dimitri comes out, I’ll have to apologize, but we can’t sleep together after all.’

Dimitri, feeling refreshed after a pleasant bath, towel-dried his wet hair and searched for Rowaine with his eyes. She was on the bed.
“Rowaine.”
“….”
“Why are you covered in blankets like that?”
Rowaine had the blanket pulled over her head, hiding every strand of her hair.
Dimitri, who quickly pulled back the blanket, was surprised.
“Why are you coming out so late?! I’ve been waiting for you…!”
Rowaine, whose face was stained with tears, threw herself into Dimitri with the blanket.
“I guess I’m a helpless coward, hnng.”
