Chapter 10: Earn Money
The woman only wanted to leave the room as if her feet were burning while standing there. So, she did not care what Althea needed anymore.
She nodded her head in a hurry and left the room. She did not care anymore what this fool would do with the crystal ball.
The daughter stared at her with anger and disgust but left after her mother.
The head of the justice department followed them. Now only Althea and her finance left.
She was staring at him for some time. Her gaze was so sharp and piercing that he was feeling uneasy and trying to look away but she did not take her gaze away from him even for a second.
"Are you blaming me now?" he asked, trying to hide his unease. "I had never lost my trust in you, in fact, I was the one who was sure that you could not do anything like this." she smiled sweetly but her eyes were still filled with mockery.
The man in front of her was the grandson of her maternal grandmother's friend.
When Althea was born their marriage was fixed and both parties were joyous about it.
But once the mother of Althea died and she lost her position as the eldest and precious daughter of the duchess, he and his mother started to behave differently.
Now that the grandmother and mother are gone, even his grandmother is not able to say much about it.
So, they were trying to find a way to get rid of her and choosing a better girl in her place.
Too bad, Althea had always seen him as his only family, her lover and life partner. She was not ready to give up on this relationship.
In the memory of her character, she had seen that the boy was kind and loving who often took Althea out and gave her gifts but now that she looked at the garbage in the drawer, she felt like the game was flawed.
How could his crooked eyes and nefarious look be called care. If she had not seen him by her own eyes, she would have believed that he was an ally.
What a scumbag she had met in her life. And those gifts, she would rather not have them and his pity too.
"I am glad about it. Now that everything is sorted out, I want to rest." she waved her hands, shocking him.
Her reaction was so cold and dull as if he did not matter to her. She had never behaved like this before.
In fact, she had always tried to find a way to stop him from leaving.
Though he felt insulted, he wanted to go to Jenny and know what exactly happened here. So after showing fake care for a few more minutes, she left with hasty steps.
As the door closed, her expressions turned cold as she looked at the mess on her ground.
She was only lucky that she found a man's undergarments and cufflinks in her closet when she was trying to find a better dress.
And finding the culprit was not hard either. The face of her sister and her fiance said it all.
But was she supposed to take revenge? The story of the games was to find the hidden dark witch who was the most powerful of all the beings.
She would end all the demons and rule the empire. But here she was working as an extra character where even survival was difficult.
When would the game end? She sighed and sat on the bed as she opened the neon screen again.
The words started to dance in front of her eyes.
Character name - Althea, daughter of duchess.
Age - 19 years.
Personality - kind and meek
Power- power of space
Mission - to survive the traps around her and find a way to leave the house and participate in the coming war.
She tried to find the exit button again and again but there was no exit button at all.
As if the game only has one entrance and no way to leave.
"The settings must have stuck!" she muttered as she fell on the bed with a sigh.
The fall ceiling and the softness of the bed.. Even her skin felt so real. She had never seen such a setting before. If only she had a nice character, she would not have thought about leaving all the time.
"Alright, since I am here, I will take revenge as a fan of the game." she said with another sigh as she came on terms with the game.
"For that i had three targets! That evil stepmother, her sisters and that evil fiance. Why is the character unluckier than Cinderella." but that did not matter, it would be good entertainment to teach all of them a lesson.
But before that, she would need money to survive. She had always spent a good amount on her lifestyle since the business of mercenaries had a good earning and she had no one to spend on it.
She had only worn luxury clothes and eaten expensive food. This stale bread.. She looked at the food on the table and her face turned nauseated, it is not for her.
With a chuckle, she picked up the ball laying on the ground.
If only they knew that they were giving her the key to their ruin, they would not have been such a fool.
"Now let's start with earning a good money."
