Chiara slammed her dry bread onto the plate. Because of the hardness of the bread, the old porcelain plate was cracked, almost broke. Chiara's actions immediately sparked the attention of everyone at the dining table. His two younger siblings who had been blabbering loudly immediately fell silent staring at their first brother. His mother who was busy polishing a spoon in the corner of the room with a dirty apron also stopped his activities. Meanwhile the father who was sitting at the end of the table glared at Chiara with an expression of tremendous anger.

“What the fuck is your attitude,” grumbled the father in a low voice full of threats.

“I'm done eating,” Chiara said as she got up from her seat.

“Sit at your place Kara Leonard!” snapped his father hard.

Chiara was silent for a while. The girl turned around and looked at her father. “Dad should be ashamed of Mr. Gillian. Share after the help of their family all this time, father is getting greedy and wants to use me to marry Rein? I was even too embarrassed to let myself save feelings for her,” Chiara said cynically.

Not caring for her father's angry expression, Chiara left the dining room. His father exploded in anger shortly afterwards. Her mother tried to quell her husband's anger while Chiara's two younger sisters were now crying loudly.

“Truly a wonderful family,” sighs Chiara after successfully getting into her own room.

The girl then laid her body on the bed while thinking. For a long time he knew that his parents, especially his father, always wished he could be the daughter-in-law of the Gillian family. Rein is his only son and is the sole heir to his father's entire fortune. Ever since his wife died, Lord Gillian had never been in a relationship with anyone. He is a workmaniac who has only one purpose in life: to enrich himself. The Glorious Lord rarely even paid attention to Rein. Since childhood Rein was often entrusted to the Chiara family and the arena that they both became familiar.

Even so, Chiara never thought that her relationship with Rein could develop into more than just a friend. To be honest, Chiara did not have time to think about boring things like romance or love. At the age of almost past the age of marriage, Chiara never established such a relationship with anyone. His parents simply let Chiara stay single because she was close to Rein and hoped that the young master would soon propose to Chiara.

Of course, hope is in vain. Rein probably did not see Chiara as a woman either. Their relationship is more like a brother. Even so Rein had never been close to anyone in his entire life. Both Chiara and Rein had gotten too used to each other until they had no other friends close enough.

However, Chiara suddenly remembered how Lea, the fox woman, had tried to get close to Rein this morning. I don't know why it bothers him. This was the first time Chiara had seen Rein chatting familiarly with another woman. And that made Chiara angry for some vague reason.

“I'm annoyed that the woman is a cunning fox who intends to take advantage of Rein. That's what makes me angry!,” his murmur reassured.

The nightmare woke Chiara up in the middle of the night. The girl glanced out the window of her room which was not curtained. Still dark. Chiara tried to sleep again, but her heart was so agitated for no reason. Maybe because of that shitty dream. He finally decided to go downstairs and get some water.

Chiara went down the stairs slowly so as not to make a sound. While passing through her mother's room, Chiara faintly heard the sound of broken sobs being held back. The girl took a deep breath and continued her steps. Her mother was crying again. That means the father has gone out of the house tonight and slept outside, with no other woman. Chiara was so amazed by her father's genes that it strongly influenced her and her sister Kale. Chiara likes to gamble, while Kale likes to play women. How can a human being have only bad qualities and no goodness.

“Ah, I forgot that dad also had a keen eye in looking at antiques. He is a curator,” Chiara thought while pouring a glass of water in a porcelain glass that has been opaque due to age.

The atmosphere of the house was so dark. The lanterns were turned off to save fuel. Some of his family's obsolete home windows were also left without curtains solely because the price of the cloth was too expensive to buy. Chiara's bedroom windows have even damaged hinges and often open themselves when the wind is strong. Not once did Chiara have to get up and get the flu from being exposed to the cold all night.

After she finished drinking, Chiara returned to her room, deciding to try to sleep again. However, when her steps had just reached the end of the second floor stairs, suddenly the girl heard a brazen voice from inside her room. Suspectingly, the girl sneaked and peeked out from behind the door. Unfortunately due to the extremely dark atmosphere, Chiara could not see anything. Only a skin-piercing chill was felt from inside his room.

My window must be open again. Did a wild cat come in? Or rats? Thought Chiar while still observing in his completely dark room.

However, as there was no sign of any strange movements, Chiara ventured to open the door of her room wider and went inside. The decision was then greatly regretted by Chiara, because the next second, right in the middle of her room, a pair of red eyes were giddy in the air. The two eyes stared at him savagely followed by a low growl that was very intimidating.

“Diabos,” murmured Chiara limp.

The girl suddenly lost all power in her body due to overwhelming shock. Both of his legs turned limp and he fell to the floor without being able to say anything. Chiara's entire body trembled in fear, but her brain was completely unable to think. There was only one thing he believed in at the time: he would probably die soon.

The terrible evil spirit gave off an incredible stench. When he saw Chiara collapsing to the floor limply, the diabos then growled again and prepared to pounce. Chiara was resigned to her fate. The girl could only be gripped when the diabos jumped about to hit her.
