The Villainess Hides Her Wealth - Chapter 76.1
Chapter 76.1
Even if it wasn’t as much as before, she thought she’d listen a little if it were a provocative issue…
“I heard from my fiancé that Sir Jiksen said Lady Yuria brought some for him.”
No way. Rather, Jiksen intercepted the cosmetics Yuria was going to give to the knights…
‘Did Brother Jiksen say it like that because it was hard to say he took them away? So he’d rather say that Yuria gave them to him?’
Or was that indicative of Yunette’s status?
So much so that he had to say that Yuria, who he didn’t even like, gave them to him first?
“If both the Prince and Duchess Primrose have them, does that mean Lady Lilika is the only one without access to the cosmetics?”
Even among knights who weren’t interested in skincare, cosmetics such as sunscreen got attention.
Jiksen wanted to chatter in front of the crowd, so instead of saying that he had stolen them, he went around saying that he had received them from Yuria.
However, like this, it looked like Lilika was suddenly on her own in the duchy.
If Lilika’s reputation had been as good as before, it might have been possible for them to feel sorry for her…
‘In this situation… does it become a weakness?’
If only Jiksen had said that he didn’t receive anything either…
If only he had shared the cosmetics he received with her…
At the very least… they wouldn’t have reacted like this. Like Lilika wasn’t part of the Primrose duchy!
At this rate, Lilika’s aspect of suffering at the hands of the wicked Yuria would never emerge again.
“Is Lady Lilika the only one with a bad relationship within the family?”
“I beg your pardon?”
“Oh, I was just wondering, since you offered funeral flowers to the Duchess.”
Originally, she tried to move public opinion.
While talking to the noble ladies, she would tell them her story and point her finger at the duchess, saying she was being unfortunately ostracized.
She was going to make it look like she was ignoring Lilika, the illegitimate child, while being close to the representative of Yunette…
‘Being honest won’t do it.’
“On the contrary, it seems that me and the Duchess aren’t on good terms.”
Well, Lilika thought it was okay for her to do that, but her head began to hurt at the thought that she had become more disadvantaged.
‘I’m not what I used to be… I’m not the precious child of the duchy, I’m more like a wedge.’
They were also trying to get at least one cosmetic through the Duchess, so she shouldn’t have tried to pretend to be pitiful in the first place.
It was an embarrassment.
The reason Lilika thought that it would work even if she acted like this was because she had been pitied before.
She was quick-witted, so she could recognize the subtle atmosphere right now.
However, she felt bitter without realizing it.
They were talking to her because of Yunette’s greatness.
She thought they were interested in her, even if it was ever so slightly.
Even if that wasn’t the case, she thought they were interested in the Primrose duchy.
She didn’t think that Yunette was so great that they had to come up and talk to her first even though they were thinking badly of her.
‘If it was like before, they wouldn’t have been able to talk to me first.’
The way they looked at her like they were testing her, like they were laughing at her…
It was unlikely that Lilika felt like they were looking down at her simply because she was sitting there and the ladies who approached her were standing.
‘I have to deal with this situation.’
After reading the atmosphere, Lilika raised the corners of her mouth.
And…
“I’ll definitely bring them next time!” she replied with a cheeky smile.
