The Villainess Hides Her Wealth - Chapter 91.1

Chapter 91.1

It had been too long since she had heard something like this from someone other than her mother.

However, there was a catch in what Princess Vivian had said.

‘His Highness… I don’t know about swordsmanship or magic skills, but I’ve never heard of him participating in a hunting competition.’

Winning the hunting competition…

Yuria took a moment to consider his chances of winning, then shook her head.

‘Actually, it doesn’t matter if he doesn’t win. The fact that he is doing his best for me is the most important thing.’

It was good that Crown Prince Enoch was trying hard for her.

No matter how many times she thought about it, she was deeply moved when he came forward and called her name in front of so many people.

“Even if he doesn’t win… I’m just thankful that His Highness thought about me.”

“No, he’s not just thinking of you! He’s really going to get them. If he loses to Sir Vieira in this situation, I won’t let it go.”

It was Yuria’s sincere statement that he didn’t have to win, but Princess Vivian seemed to think it was a distrust of Crown Prince Enoch.

“He’s going to crush Sir Vieira and the other gentlemen easily. If my brother says he’ll do it, he’ll do it. If he weren’t confident, he wouldn’t have stepped forward.”

Princess Vivian, who was getting heated up, hesitated for a moment before adding,

“Above all, Lady Yuria… I think he’s thinking more about you than you think?”

There were numerous ladies who participated in the hunting competition, and among them, it was difficult to count the young ladies who said they would give Crown Prince Enoch a handkerchief.

But the only handkerchief he accepted was Yuria’s. He even asked for it first. Even though there was no chance of rejection, how could she refuse him?

It was unbearably good that he came forward only for her and dealt with that.

‘What should I do? I must not be in my right mind.’

She was pleased that Crown Prince Enoch did not do this to any other women. She wished that he wouldn’t be kind to others. She didn’t want him to receive a handkerchief from another woman. She hoped he wouldn’t go to a hunting competition for someone else.

Now… and in the future. Always. Yuria wished he would do that for her alone.

‘Because he treats me so kindly… I keep getting greedy.’

“So this is beyond my power,” Yuria muttered in a low voice.

The hunt began in earnest.

But even though the long-awaited hunting competition had begun, Sir Vieira couldn’t focus.

‘What… what was that? Why did His Highness take Lady Yuria’s handkerchief?’

He never imagined that the crown prince would intervene in the situation at that moment.

He stared at him sharply, as if threatening him. Like he had messed with someone he shouldn’t have.

And… how softly he looked at Yuria in contrast.

It made even him, who was somewhat oblivious to such a different attitude, think a lot.

Wasn’t this like… being vigilant when another man approaches a woman you’re interested in?

‘No. Even if her reputation has gotten a little better lately… There’s no reason for him to interfere.’

If there had been any marriage talks for being the duke’s daughter, it would have been with Lilika.

There was no way he was being sincere to Yuria, a villainess who was jealous of her sister because she was unpopular and had a wicked personality!

‘From what I heard, Princess Vivian seems to be indebted to her… She must be grateful.’

But that glance weighed on his mind the whole time.

Why did Crown Prince Enoch ask Yuria for a handkerchief when they didn’t seem to have much contact with each other?

The situation that was going against his plan confused him. If he had known that Prince Enoch would receive Yuria’s handkerchief, he wouldn’t have even started the plan in the first place…

‘No, let’s wait and see. He has never participated in a hunting competition before.’

It wasn’t that Sir Vieira didn’t care about Crown Prince Enoch’s participation because he was foolish.

Looking back on the past competitions, he gave his prey as a courtesy to old ladies who came to watch…

Either that, or he didn’t hunt at all. Because it was a must to give the prey you caught to a woman.

‘Nothing changes. No, it could rather be a good thing.’
