Surviving As The Villainess
Chapter 42 - Hiding Something

After dreaming about death, Liyuna had a chance to think and become more silent. Yvette who realized that trying to make Liyuna excited again, he invited Liyuna and Yuriel to go visit a cafe not far from their school.

They went to the cafe after school, where it was getting dark. Yvette has no choice but to spend a little time after school because it will take a long time if waiting for the weekend. Yvette had no idea what would happen to Liyuna if she waited too long.

The cafe they visited had a pretty interesting interior, where brands could feel the atmosphere like being in Europe.

When opening the door a voice rang out the sound of a bell moving and a servant greeted them politely. The three of them chose a seat not far from a large French window. If they look out, they can see a lot of people passing through the cafe.

After that they wait for the menu that some time ago they ordered.

"What's on Yuna's mind?"

Yvette immediately said what had made her think. According to him, do not have to think too long to ask or not, after all, the reason he invited Liyuna was also because of this.

Liyuna was seen staring at Yvette for a moment, "I just had a bad dream."

"Sir Yuna is really okay?"

Yuriel who had no idea that Liyuna had changed a little lately felt guilty. He put on his face like a puppy who wants to cry.

Seeing that, Liyuna immediately tried to make the two people who were worried about her not to worry.

"I'm fine, sorry to worry you guys. I just had a bad dream and it got me a little bit of a thought."

"What dream, brother?"

"It would be better if you didn't know."

"True, nightmares are best kept away."

Liyuna smiled faintly at Yvette's words.

"Thank you Yvette."

Yvette looked very happy to hear Liyuna thanking her. It signified that Liyuna and herself were already very close.

"I'm sorry, I'm not so sensitive."

Liyuna could see Yuriel's imaginary dog's ears bowed sadly.

"It's okay, Yuri."

They chatted casually after discussing Liyuna's declining mood.

After that, Yvette subconsciously asked a sensitive question because she felt too curious.

"If Yuriel is Yuna's sister, why don't you guys look too much alike?"

Realizing what he had just asked, Yvette immediately closed her mouth.

Liyuna and Yuriel looked silent.

"Ah, sorry. I didn't mean to..."

"That's because I'm an adopted child."

"Yuri..."

Yuriel smiled softly, she began to explain where she had proposed to Yvette.

"I'm just a kid adopted by uncle Karl. My real father fell ill so he couldn't take care of me and uncle Karl was kind enough to be my adoptive parent."

"That's it, sorry..."

"It's okay. I'm currently feeling good about meeting Yuna's sister."

The talks did not go any further because they had to go home soon. Noel had also been waiting for Liyuna and Yuriel since earlier.

Unlike Liyuna who immediately took a bath, Yuriel instead stood in front of her study table.he was seen opening one of the lowest lockers on the table.

It looks like a stack of paper that is quite thick in size. He picked up the first stack that had been split with a black clip.

On the paper, there is self-data about Liyuna and her photo.

The look in Yuriel's eyes looked completely different from usual, looking so dark as if there were no emotions.

Yuriel is a cheerful and kind child. He was liked by everyone because of this nature but his present gaze, was not Yuriel's usual eye gaze.

Yuriel is seen groping photos of Liyuna with her little finger. No one knows what's on his mind.

"The light you're emitting is very difficult to reach." Mumbled slowly.

No one knew what Yuriel meant, for sure he looked so sad when he said that. There was something that always stuck Yuriel in the heart and it felt like a rope was tying her neck. The rope kept him so tight he didn't know what to do.

Yeah, it's always like that. No matter how hard Yuriel tried, no matter what kind of path Yuriel chose, all would end up with the same ending.

Yuriel did not have much choice, the only thing she could do was to enter this family. No matter who would be hurt, Yuriel had already decided to tread this thorny path.

Despite failing so many times, he would still take the same path. This time too, even if his legs and hands were covered in blood, he would still be on this path. It was the only way he could cross to survive.

But ... Well, maybe this time there'll be something different.

***

The next day, the City of Elishio was struck by such astonishing news.

The biggest scandal of the year comes to the surface making anyone who hears of it will surely be shocked.

The most distinguished and richest family in the city of Elisien who always clean finally dragged in a big scandal.

"Good morning, viewers. A few weeks ago, shocking news came from the Castris family. Legally, they adopted a child and legally gave her the name Castris."

"This is surprising, given Castris' strict rules against their surnames. No one can carelessly use the surname. However, a child appears suddenly and is surprisingly allowed to carry the name."

"Who exactly is that boy? What happened to the Castris family?"

"The head of the Castris Family, Karl Eludian Castris, has not yet made an official statement about his actions."

"Who is the identity of the child?"

After the horrendous news spread everywhere, many people speculated about Yuriel's true identity.

Many people thought that Yuriel was the illegitimate son of Charles and accused him of being an unfaithful man. When there are articles discussing this news on the website, people start writing their comments about what they read.

Most of them had pity on Liyuna and Sara, some of whom criticized Karl for taking his illegitimate son to the house left by his biological son and his wife, some others are pretentious and say that rich families are always problematic.

No one knows what really happened in the Castris family. The family has always been seen as the cleanest and most scandal-free family. But because of this problem, everyone who hated and envied Castris showed their fangs.

There is nothing more terrifying than an attack in cyberspace. Everyone expressed their opinion freely, Karl was the only person affected by it more than anyone else.

If we only saw what was in the news, everyone would think Karl was wrong. The swearing in was addressed to him as well as Yuriel who knew nothing.

However, Karl did not try to stop the news. Makes things even more so and difficult to extinguish.
