Being a Novel Antagonist
Episode 28's


"Your Majesty please drink this." The red-haired girl thrust a glass cup at Lucius who was sitting on the soft sofa of her study. The cup contained the best quality imported warm ginger. Agatha made her own with the materials available in the mansion's kitchen.


Lucius reached out his hand and received the small cup . He drank it slowly. Not far from there, Steven was leaning against the wall and staring cynically at their interaction.


"It just hurts like a baby." The green man muttered with crossed hands. All this time he never directly expressed his dislike of someone. But now, he was constantly grumbling at Lucius. The man felt that he had been cheated openly by his own lover and best friend.


"Stop grumbling and finish our deal with the north!" The voice was trying to rule. Hearing the order, Steven lazily took the brown paper at Lucius' desk and immediately came out to take care of it. However, before going out he had to put a limit on Agatha.


"Darling don't mess with that guy." Not wanting more business runyam, Agatha just nodded.


When Steven came out, he passed Sheila who was crying, Steven realized that the golden-white-haired girl had just eavesdropped. With a flat face He said. "Don't do anything that'll kill you."


Sheila looked up at Steven with tears in her eyes. He rubbed his eyes slowly. "What do you mean, sir?"Sheila asked in between the fields.


The green man simply passed by and did not answer Sheila. Feeling the appearance, Sheila again cried stifled by biting her pale lips.


With trembling hands, the girl clinched her dress and desperately ran towards the room. Instantly his body fell limp on the floor. Steven's words were still ringing in Sheila's ears. He knew that eavesdropping was wrong and that the punishment might have been hanging.

Royal Mansion,


Daytime, day,


The sun is at its peak. This afternoon is so hot. Agatha and Lucius were in the dining room. At the long table, a variety of royal dishes are available.


They ate it until the dessert was pudding. After finishing the dessert, Agatha wiped the edges of her lips.


"Since when have you been lovers." Said the tanned man, full of probes. Agatha snorted for a moment in surprise. "We were never lovers. Your Highness, don't you know how Mr. Steven behaves. He just admits it." That girl's heart.


"Greet Your Majesty." A male servant was present with sweat pouring down his forehead accompanied by a panicked expression. He looked down at his knees. "Your Majesty, Miss Sheila was found unconscious in her room." Report the waiter.


Meanwhile, a curly brunette girl was looking for the whereabouts of the lady. As soon as they met, the girl approached.


"Miss." He exclaimed. "Miss, sorry I was presumptuous. I heard a rumor not wearing." Lucy's sentence made Agatha knit her brows.


"What!"


"The servants are gossiping that Miss is envious of Miss Sheila and that's why you're bothering Miss Sheila." Lucy said with her head down.


Agatha clenched her strong hands. "How can there be such a rumor." Mumbled.


"An-anu Miss, they heard the news from the market. Reportedly a former servant of the mansion said that."


"Hm." Agatha thought it might have been the servant Lucius had fired back then who was spreading.


Without realizing it, Steven who will meet Lucius actually heard his conversation with Lucy. With cold eyes the man went out and cancelled his original purpose of meeting Lucius.


***


"Hey, hey did you hear. Reportedly a body was found on the river bank. Tragically, his lips and tongue were burned."


"Yes, I heard that from my uncle. Said uncle, it was the corpse of the former servant of the royal mansion."


"Well, did you have a word?"


The townspeople began to whisper about the recent horrendous events. Like just last night the former waiter smiled cunningly spread gossip, now even he who became the gossip material tragically.
