Surviving As The Villainess
Chapter 53 - Return

Liyuna's body began to feel trembling, she reflexively hugged her own body. It seemed like he had to go inside to warm up his body which was already getting cold.

Yuda saw Liyuna's body trembling with cold start taking off the suit she was wearing and wrapped it around Liyuna's small body. Due to the difference in body shape, the suit belonging to Yuda looks very oversized worn by Liyuna.

Liyuna was a little surprised to see Yuda who suddenly gave her suit but he did not refuse because Liyuna was currently very cold.

"Thank you." Said Liyuna while pulling the suit to cover her body which began to feel cold.

"You better get back inside."

Liyuna immediately stood up and slightly bowed towards Yuda as a sign of gratitude and also farewell.

"You alone?"

"I'll be here a little longer, you come back without me."

"Then I go back inside first."

Liyuna walked further and further away towards the main hall where the party was held. Her small body grew increasingly invisible to Judah's gaze.

Judah was looking up at the night sky, leaning his back against the bench. His brain again recalled about the shitty incident a few days ago. He still could not shake the hatred he felt for Eris.

It was fortunate that the Harvenhelt family business was not engaged in economics, so they were not obliged to come to a party like this. They only need to show one of their family members, so all problems are resolved.

Yuda as the youngest of three brothers who always got this task. He had to attend various parties held by other large families, especially families who were Harvenhelt's main clients. Yuda is actually not very opposed to this because he is indeed a person who is always happy to get the opportunity to interact with new people, he said, what's more with his frequent formal events like this he can be far from Eris.

Both of her sisters were very busy people, as were her parents. Yuda as the youngest child and still a student is considered to have a lot of free time and is asked to do this task.

Later, however, Judah also felt quite tired. He who during his stay at home always behaved arbitrarily and did not follow the manners found it difficult if he had to continue to be formal in front of people. Although hiding behind a mask was his specialty, he was just an ordinary human who could also feel tired.

His encounter with Liyuna was something he had never imagined before. The last time he saw Liyuna was during the Ravenray anniversary party, even when he only saw from a distance and he never made contact with Liyuna. It was the first time that Yuda had met Liyuna and talked to her.

According to Yuda, Liyuna was quite an attractive child and somehow she felt that there was something Liyuna was hiding. Judah did not know what it was but one day it will all be clearly seen.

"Liyuna Aria Castris, yes..." Yuda muttered in a soft voice.

***

Liyuna is seen walking into the main room where the party is held. He holds the collar of Judah's suit.

Arriving inside the room, Liyuna swept across the corner with her two eyes and hoped to find Yuriel. When Liyuna's eyes caught the figure she was looking for. Liyuna immediately walked up to him and Yuriel happened to be alone, accompanied only by a piece of eclair and chamomile tea.

"Yuri..."

Yuriel turned to Liyuna who called out to her, smiling at her brother who had come back and came to her.

"Sir Yuna!"

"Try this strawberry cake, it tastes so good." Yuriel took the strawberry shortcake that was on the table and gave it to Liyuna.

Liyuna happily accepted Yuriel's cake and tried to eat a mouthful. Stoberi taste immediately so felt on the tongue, plus the rich taste of the cream makes this powerful stove more delicious. Liyuna was satisfied with Yuriel's choice of cake.

Liyuna felt Yuriel's gaze glued to her, "What's wrong?" Ask.

"Sister, that suit..." Yuriel pointed at the suit that was on Liyuna's shoulder.

"It belongs to Yuda."

Liyuna immediately realized that Yuriel still did not know who Yuda was, so she looked confused.

"I mean Young Master Harvenhelt."

"Are you guys close?"

"Hmm, not really." Liyuna replied while putting a mouthful of strawberry cake into her mouth.

For some reason Yuriel's face had changed a little, she didn't look as happy as before.

"really?"

"Yes, I just met him for the first time."

"Yuna, whose suit are you wearing?" Sara suddenly came from behind and lightly patted Liyuna on the shoulder.

"Mama? Ah.. This belongs to the Young Master of the Harvenhelt family."

"Yuda?"

"Yes, Ma."

"Have you met each other?"

"Yes, I accidentally met him in the back garden."

"Dear Yuna, you better take off the suit and replace it with Mama's scarf." Sara took off the suit that was on Liyuna's shoulder and replaced it with the scarf she was wearing.

Liyuna looked confused by Sara's attitude which seemed very sudden.

"You don't want any unpleasant rumors circulating, do you?"

Liyuna immediately understood the meaning of Sara's words. Not long ago he was officially made the sole heir to the largest company in the country so people would indirectly continue to pay attention to him. If one sees Liyuna wearing a male outfit that has no blood relation to her in a public place then it can be a spark that will later burn her.

One can get hurt just because of baseless rumors and other people's pretentious comments. As the one who would later inherit the Castris Group, Liyuna had to avoid cheap gossip that could hurt her.

"Sorry, Ma. I didn't think it got that far."

"It's okay, Yuna is very young. Mama did this too to protect him and also Young Master Harvenhelt."

Previously Liyuna never thought that her young self could also be dragged by rumors but after hearing Sara's words, it seemed that it was not impossible.

Although still a child, Liyuna's status is very high, you could say she occupies the highest seat in the food chain. Likewise with Yuda, the position and status he has is not inferior to Liyuna so it is not impossible if the two can get involved in rumors just because they lend a suit.

"Right, Brother Yuna must be careful with Young Master Harvenhelt! I don't want you to get hurt." Yuriel, who had been listening to Liyuna and Sara, felt that her brother had to stay away from Judah.

What else if until Liyuna was involved in a scandal, surely it would be something difficult. Yuriel did not want her dear brother to be ruined just because of a cheap scandal. Liyuna was someone who should have stood at the highest peak, she was someone precious to Yuriel and someone who easily slipped out of her grasp.

Yuriel did not want Liyuna to lose the light she had. The light that repeatedly saved him and the light that always illuminated every path he went through.

If a person wants the light, he must obey the rules he makes. After all, he knew about something that no one else knew.

A secret known only to himself and a secret countless times he felt.
