Surviving As The Villainess
Chapter 72 - Return to the Villa

Noel was on patrol to make sure that the circumstances around them were safe. As they party barbeque, Noel can sense the whereabouts of others besides them which is why he becomes so wary. From a distance he saw Liyuna sitting on the bridge. Worried, Noel approached her and told her whereabouts by holding Liyuna's shoulder.

Liyuna was shocked by Noel's sudden appearance, and apologized. Not long after, Noel noticed a red dot on Liyuna's body. He knew what point it was, it was a laser sniper rifle. Quickly, Noel covered Liyuna's small body with his body and looked intently at the arrival of the laser.

Noel asked Liyuna to return inside the villa and try to distract her but when Liyuna was almost at the door, suddenly someone threw a knife from behind. Noel who was still in the lake saw the person who tried to throw a knife clearly and he immediately chased the person into the forest.

Noel did not know what happened to Liyuna after that because she was busy to keep the person in front of her busy. Fortunately, the sniper who was targeting Liyuna did not seem to have succeeded in launching the attack because Liyuna was already in a place where it was difficult to shoot.

Noel took off the jacket he was wearing and mounted horses to attack the person in front of him. They were fighting with their bare hands. Noel can agilely compensate the hitman who almost killed Liyuna and managed to keep her busy. Although Noel is not a professional body guard, but he has done training while in the orphanage. That was why his ability could not be underestimated.

She was among the orphanage children who joined before the new policy was implemented. Therefore, his ability to fight or survive will not be inferior to others. It could even be said that he had abilities beyond ordinary people. Even though he had once done training, it was still difficult for him to actually defeat a professional hit man who did something like this for a living. When Noel was a little off guard, his stomach was already hollowed out by a knife.

At that time Noel tried to return to the villa and warn the children, but he was unconscious in the forest near the villa due to blood loss.

Noel tried to open his eyes slowly. Both of his eyes could not see clearly, all still looked very blurry.

"Get me some water for Brother Noel."

***

At this moment Liyuna was really feeling very guilty. He recalled the incident just moments ago when Noel asked him to return to the villa.

'He knows everything, Brother Noel knows that bad people are after us.'

Liyuna thought that Noel was hurt by it. He blames himself even more and hopes to quickly return to the villa and find Noel.

"Yuna, you're hurt." Yuda said as he stared at Liyuna's body that was so dirty from the ground and blood.

Yuda could see all over Liyuna's body was covered with wounds because currently Liyuna was only wearing a short sleep gown that could not really protect her body properly. The corner of the dress she was wearing also looked torn because of something.

"I'm fine, the most important thing right now is to find out about Noel's condition."

Yuda was very impressed with Liyuna's current attitude. He is more concerned with the safety of others than himself is injured and even difficulty to walk. Not only that impressed Yuda but also because of Liyuna's calm attitude in addressing this situation. Although he had acted recklessly because he had almost revealed his location but according to Yuda it was a natural reaction for someone who first saw the murder directly. In fact, it was strange that Liyuna could calm down in such a situation.

"Wear this." Yuda thrust the coat he had worn on Liyuna.

Looking at her body that had many wounds and at the moment she was only wearing a nightgown, Liyuna did not refuse, "Thank you."

"It will be very difficult to find him in the forest."

"Just look for it until we meet."

Liyuna steadied her resolve. Right now they had to return to the villa and search for Noel's whereabouts. Noel was injured after all for trying to save Liyuna but Liyuna foolishly got hurt instead.

Due to the difficulty of walking, Liyuna held onto Yuda's arm as a pedestal of her body. Yuda also did not bother about it and helped Liyuna to walk.

"Why are you here?" Ask Liyuna.

"I'm on a mission."

"Mission?" Liyuna.

"Ah right too, you're a detective." Yuna continued.

Realizing that the speech he had just said was something he should not have known, Liyuna reflexively closed her mouth.

The corner of Yuda's lips was drawn up to see that, "I didn't know you were interested in me." He tried to tease Liyuna.

"That's not true! I didn't know it by accident." Although it sounded like a stupid reason, Liyuna had no choice but to lie. There was no way he would tell Yuda that he saw everything in the game.

Yuda knows that Liyuna is trying to brag because her status as a detective is a state secret that only her family knows. If Liyuna finds out it means she is conducting a special investigation on him by hiring a private investigator or knowing it from another unknown source.

Judah did not try to tease Liyuna again and chose to agree because they were not currently in favor of joking.

Shortly after, they arrived at the villa. Liyuna had not seen the knife that had almost made her get stabbed which meant that someone had taken it.

Yuda opened the door of the villa, the creaking sound of the door made the people inside the villa even more vigilant. Allen who was near the door tried to attack Yuda by hitting him but his attack was stopped by Yuda easily. Although Allen fought a lot, he still could not compare to the trained Yuda.

"Allen stop!" Said Liyuna trying to stop Allen from attacking Yuda.

"Yuna!" Allen looked surprised to see Liyuna, she reflexively hugged Liyuna tightly.

"Don't hold her tight, she's hurting." Yuda tried to tell Allen that Liyuna was injured so don't overload her body.

Allen immediately released his embrace and looked at Liyuna, sure enough, he could see Liyuna's body that had many wounds.

"You okay?"

"It doesn't matter now, Brother Noel..."

"Sir Noel is inside along with Yuriel." Allen interrupted Liyuna's speech and pointed at Noel's room.

Liyuna who heard that went straight into the room and saw Noel lying on the bed. He had already opened his eyes but looked so weak, Yvette and Yuriel accompanied Noel and gave him a glass of water.

"Sir Yuna!" Seeing Liyuna at the door, Yuriel immediately stood up and hugged her but again Judah stopped.

"He's hurt."

Yuriel looked at Liyuna carefully and sure enough her body was filled with wounds.

Liyuna smiled at Yuriel as a sign that she was fine and walked up to Noel.

Seeing Liyuna in front of him Noel immediately tried to get up.

"Sister Noel doesn't have to push himself."

"I'm sorry for not being able to protect Miss."

"Sister Noel doesn't need to apologize. Because of me, Noel's sister got hurt."

"It's not a big thing, it's my job to protect Miss."

Judah who saw that Noel was wounded approached him and checked his wound. He was surprised to see Noel's well-treated wounds.

"Who's handling the wound?"

"Yuriel did it." Allen answered who was currently in front of Noel's room door.

Yuda was surprised to hear Allen's answer, he did not expect that a 12-year-old child could stop bleeding from a knife stab well. It seems like the Castris family is nothing normal.

"You did well." Yuda praised Yuriel's ability.

"Yuna?"

Karl's voice was heard from the phone line that was still on. Liyuna who heard her father's voice immediately looked at Yvette's hand that was holding the phone since earlier.

"Father!"

Yvette who was sensitive to Liyuna's state immediately walked up to her and gave her a cell phone.

"Yuna baby, calm down. Papa will be there soon, Yuna hold on until Papa comes." Karl's voice sounded very soft after hearing his daughter's voice. Right now he was able to breathe with a little relief because Liyuna had managed to survive.

Contrary to the voice that sounds soft, Karl is currently driving his car at a speed so high that it makes other cars near him hurl an oath of absorbency. Even so, Karl did not seem to care, what was in his mind at this moment was how he could quickly get to where Yuna was.

After hearing reports that Liyuna and the other tang on vacation were attacked, Karl could not maintain his calm demeanor. His mind was too shallow, he thought that if around the villa he had rented exclusively, he could protect Liyuna but in reality he was mislead. He did not even provide a body guard to protect Liyuna at all and was only accompanied by Noel.

Karl decided to tell Sara after this incident was over because he did not want her to be shocked.

"Yes, Pa. Yuna will wait and survive."

Hearing Liyuna's steady and unvibrating voice, Karl became a little relieved.

"How is Yuna doing right now."

"Yuna's fine, Pa. Yuna survived because Young Master Harvenhelt helped Yuna."

"Please give the phone to Young Master Harvenhelt, Papa wants to talk to him in private."

Liyuna immediately gave Yuda her phone and she received it and walked out of the villa to have a private conversation and turned off the loud speaker.
