I Will Quit the Entourage of the Villainess Chapter 57

Chapter 57

It was The day after I spoke with Remias .

The cla.s.s had ended and the students were preparing to leave .

I was taking out a bag of snacks that I had made yesterday from my locker .

Today’s snack was rice crackers .

It was seasoned with salt as I had no soy sauce .

This was quite well in itself, but I have recently begun to crave soy sauce .

I was thinking of inviting the prince, who also appreciated j.a.panese snacks, so we could all have a tea party together .

There was so much on my mind recently, and I was unable to have tea with them . And so I had baked a ridiculous amount of crackers in order to make amends .

Hehe . I do hope that they will be happy .

I will wrap some up to give as a present if they are too busy to come .

It was with much excitement that I went over to the prince’s chair .

“Prince Leonhart . Do you have a minute?”

I call as he was about to stand up .

“Ah, Cosette . I am sorry, but I have some business today . Is it urgent?”

“Huh? Uh, no… I would not say that it is…”

“I see . Excuse me then . ”

“Ah, um, crackers…”

“I am sorry, but I am in a hurry . ”

“Oh…”

The prince left me there without even turning to look back .

I stood there in shock and with a sense abandonment .

We had played together for years since we were children, and yet he had never rejected me so rudely . And so I was taken aback .

And we had never talked before without our eyes meeting .

It must have been quite urgent .

But in the first place, it was silly for me to think that his highness the prince could always come to my tea parties .

He would be too busy with his other duties .

But he had always come anyway, up until now . He had never rejected an invitation .

Then it hit me .

I realized it .

That he had always partic.i.p.ated in my tea parties in spite of being the crown prince .

There were times when a servant would call for him during the parties, but he never declined to come from the beginning .

And so I had believed that he would always come .

How impudent of me…

Regardless of how close we were, a daughter of a mere count should not act like she owned the prince .

I was a.s.saulted by such a strong sense of embarra.s.sment that I thought I might faint .

I was a.s.saulted by such a strong sense of embarra.s.sment that I thought I might faint .

The bag of rice crackers I was holding suddenly looked very miserable .

What worthless snacks these were .

I felt as if the other n.o.bles around me were laughing .

So she finally sees it .

Just how shameless she was…

Hehe…hehe…

I could bear to be there no longer, and so I escaped from the cla.s.sroom .

Before I knew it I had arrived in the courtyard .

The same place that we always took tea .

There was n.o.body here now .

For some reason, tears were streaming from my eyes .

I didn’t know why I was crying .
It was obvious that the prince would be busy, and it was silly for me to cry because of this .

These tears were so shameful . I was embarra.s.sed that I was acting so hurt by it all .

How long did I stay like that?

Perhaps it was not so long .

I heard voices buzzing near the entrance of the courtyard, and I looked up .

And there was Angie, her pink hair swaying, and…the prince, who was facing her and talking .

I could not see his expression from here .

But that beautiful silver hair was unmistakably the prince’s .

His hands held a bag that was not typical for a man .

That…

I remember .

It was the homemade sweets that Angie made for her love interest .

The scene from the game that my daughter played appeared in my head .

I felt so helpless then, that I tried to throw my own bag to the ground…but I could not .

That would be a waste .

I could not waste food .

And so I nibbled on them by myself .

The tears kept flowing, and my mouth was dry from all the crackers . It was tragic .

“Cosette…?”

I turned around and saw Remias and George .

I must have looked terrible .

They both looked worriedly at my face, their eyes were wide with surprise .

“I’ll bring a wet towel!”

George said as he ran off .

Remias pulled out a clean handkerchief and wiped my mouth .

“Cosette, I have never seen you cry before . Are you okay…? Here, drink some tea . ”

Remias pulled out a clean handkerchief and wiped my mouth .

“Cosette, I have never seen you cry before . Are you okay…? Here, drink some tea . ”

Remias took out a bamboo container and poured some tea .

“Ohhhh…I ate too many rice crackers . They got stuck in my throat and made me cry . ”

Even I knew that this was a silly excuse .

But I did not know either, why I was crying .

I drank the tea so quickly that it caused me to cough .

“Ugugegahh . ”

“Cosette!”

Remias slapped me on the back .

I was so sorry…

I felt like an old woman as I looked up . My eyes locked with the prince’s .

He was still there…what was he doing?

As I stared dumbly, he looked away, and this time, left the academy .

With Angie tightly wrapped around his arm .
