I Reincarnated As A Villainess, But Why Did I Become A Cat Butler Instead? - Chapter 68
Chapter 34.2
In the first place, he didn’t expect Coco and Sasha to listen. Bringing a cat into a home was inherently something that required a lot of flexibility and patience. The cats might have played innocent and done this, but still, he didn’t know why she was struggling alone. How could she be so obedient at times like this when she had done such an unconventional thing in front of Mrs. Elbas before like that?
‘I do not even know.’
In fact, what he really didn’t know was himself, who had followed her all the way here than Rowaine.
‘…She keeps bothering me.’
Even though she was a stranger, strangely, he kept getting worried about her.
‘It is strange.’
Yes… It was strange and mysterious, so Dimitri kept letting it go. As she continued to arouse his curiosity, it was also unavoidable that the cat was drawn to curiosity. So, he wanted to leave Rowaine alone, thinking that she was free to do whatever she wanted.
‘…It is just because I am bored since my life is dull.’
Dimitri, who had half-forced the answer in his mind, listened again to Rowaine’s voice.
In the room, Sasha’s sleep talk and her cries could be heard resoundingly. He was somehow offended. Does it not feel like he became a villain who made the child come to the annex as if she was running away with Rowaine at night…?
‘That person over there is more notorious than me…’
His pride was hurt, and he couldn’t stand it.
‘I will have to arrange a room for Sasha and Coco in the main building as soon as possible.’
Every time the little cats could not sleep and looked for Rowaine, he could not have her bring them back to the annex like this. Although he only wanted to protect his realm, she did not want to be a villain to her.
‘It is just not good for me to hear rumors that the Duchess sneaks out every night and sleeps elsewhere. So that was it, there was no other reason at all.’
He didn’t know why Rowaine’s lips kept sticking out as she whispered to Sasha, “It’s okay, it’s okay.”
…It was because her voice seemed to tickle his chest.
‘This is annoying.’
Ruffling his hair for nothing, it took a while before he left his spot and went back to his room.

Dimitri, who had been sneaking around the annex in pursuit of Rowaine, eventually overslept. As a result, his aide, Hyle, came to work late this morning and kept pestering him.
“…So, the Count of Bilbao couldn’t even recover the investment and suffered a lot of damage—”
However, he did not listen to Hyle’s words at all.
It was because the side of Rowaine’s room beyond the wall was bustling. Women’s voices could be heard from the small door connecting the two rooms, a major cause of the weak soundproofing.
`“You look tired today, Madam.”
“Are you in any pain?”
“Are you feeling okay? It looks like you had a hard time last night. How about getting a little more sleep today?”
“It’s supposed to be exhausting at first.”
“Did the Master act hastily? How long did he hold onto the Madam all night and never let her go so she looks so tired like this…?”
“If you don’t feel comfortable moving around, I can bring you a meal…”
The voices of the maids were filled with excitement so the conversation could be heard more clearly.
“Please be quiet, you two. It’s not like that.”
Rowaine’s troubled voice could be faintly heard next. At that, the maids wanted to shut their mouths for a moment—but it was literally just a moment.
“By the way, it seems that the Master overslept as well.”
“The Viscount was entering the Master’s room a while ago with papers.”
“You don’t even know what to do on a day like this.”
Dimitri nodded slightly, agreeing with the maid Liddell. Meanwhile, Hyle, ignorant of it, was unaware that the maids were doing anything wrong and continued to talk about work, “For that reason, it was put on the agenda at this meeting of the elders…”
Listening to Hyle’s boring story, he once again concentrated on the interesting conversation from Rowaine’s room.
“Agwen, Liddell… Stop, don’t say anything. Shh!”
Now, Rowaine was almost crying.
Hearing a sudden voice, Hyle asked.
“Why are you smiling, Duke? Did I say anything funny?”
Come to think of it, Hyle was also here with him.
“…I didn’t laugh.”
Dimitri glanced at him as if he was talking nonsense.
“You were just laughing?”
“You must’ve seen it wrong.”
“Certainly—”
“You must’ve got an eye problem.”
“….”
