“Rozenstone, Mariel! I’m canceling my engagement with you! “
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
It happened a month before the wedding at an evening party.

Suddenly, Prince Edward announced the end of our engagement.
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
“What are you saying? Ed.”
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
I couldn’t believe he’d ended our engagement so abruptly, so I asked him a question in confusion.

“Your treatment of Eliana is abhorrent! You have no right to mistreat Eliana, a saint! “
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
“…What exactly do you mean by ‘mistreat’?”
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
“Are you going to play dumb with me?! I have evidence that you referred to Eliana as a prostitute’s daughter.”
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
But it’s true, Eliana is Viscount Rattleyer and a former high-class prostitute’s daughter.

“There’s more. At the evening party, I heard you poured wine on Eliana’s dress.”
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
I did it as well, hoping to teach her a lesson about messing with other people’s fiancés.

“And did you taint Eliana’s tea cup at the tea party?”
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
“I’m not sure; was it one of my cronies?
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
“You also hired assassins, didn’t you?”
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
I hired some hoodlums to frighten her, but I don’t think they were assassins.
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
“I admit I harassed Miss Eliana a little, but I never attempted to kill her.”
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
“Shut up! It’s all your evil actions! Guards! Put this woman in jail! “
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
Eliana smiles behind Prince Edward’s back. It is a sardonic, mocking smile.
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
What part of that is a saint? A vicious woman who seduces people’s fiancées; she’s probably the one making accusations I don’t remember.

The palace guards are attempting to apprehend me.
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
“Rude! Back off! I am the Grand Duchess of Rozenstone!
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
I yelled at them, and they trembled and froze.
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
“What are you doing? Take Mariel right now!”
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
I was apprehended by the guards, who moved cautiously on Prince Edouard’s orders.

I remembered my first life as I gazed out the window of the carriage on its way to the royal palace.
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
I was quickly exiled after being apprehended.
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
What became of Otoo-sama after that?
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
After Okaa-sama died, he refused to remarry.
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
If I’m exiled, he’ll be alone.
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
But the first time I was really the villainess from the story. The villainesses in novels and manga always harass the heroine. They are usually condemned in the end, and the heroine marries the prince.

“What are you thinking, Mariel?”
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
Otoo-sama, who sits across from me, asks me a question.
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
“No, I’m simply hungry…”
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
Then, Otoo-sama takes a chocolate bonbon from his pocket and hands it to me.
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
“We have a long way to go before dinner; would you like to eat this?”
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
“Wow! Thank you so much, Otoo-sama.”
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
I don’t have to act childish in front of the Laseids, but I do have to act childish in front of my parents.
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
When I try to take the chocolate bonbon away from Otoo-sama, Okaa-sama intercepts him.
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
“No, you’ll be full for dinner.”
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
“Mariel is hungry. Don’t you feel sorry for Mariel? One little piece is all she needs.”
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
Okaa-sama is strict with her children when it comes to discipline. We should not question her.
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
“That’s okay Otoo-sama, I’ll wait until dinner. I am sure they will have a delicious dessert. I’m looking forward to it.”
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
Otoo-sama sighs and Okaa-sama snorts triumphantly.
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
My mother married into the Rosenstone family, but Okaa-sama is the more powerful of the two.

As I savor a sumptuous meal, I become aware of Prince Edward’s suspicious gaze on me.
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
It’s the first time I’ve seen Prince Edward in this second life, but it’s not like this is the first time we have seen each other.
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
We’re cousins who have known each other since we were children.
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
When I was a toddler, I was fairly close to this older cousin.
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
I have not done anything yet. And I’m not going to do anything else in the future, and I’m going to try to stay away from him as long as possible.
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
The adults went to the salon after dinner. This is known as “adult socializing.”
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
They played card games and made small talk. Small talk, that is, about the state of affairs in the country and the movements of other countries.

Meanwhile, I ended up spending time with Prince Edward until my parents returned.
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
When Prince Edward approached me, I was sitting on the sofa with a glass of fruit juice.
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
“Hey, you’ve changed.”
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
That scared me; you’re not going to tell me he’s also in his second life like me, are you?!
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
“What? What part?”
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
Maybe it’s not, so let’s pretend we don’t know.
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
“No. Didn’t you use to have Croissant-like hair? “
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
Oh, you mean curly hair, not croissant.
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
Good. Just keep an eye on him.
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
The first time I did it, I was proud of my blonde hair and curled it every day. It’s called drill hair.
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
What a waste; I have a lovely straight blonde, so I should make the most of it.
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
I decided not to have drill hair for the second time.

“Doesn’t this hairstyle suit me?”
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
With a slightly superior look, I ask the counter-question.
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
“Yes, this one is better.”
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
Prince Edward replied, rather bewildered.

“Would you like to play chess, Your Highness?”
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
“Can you play chess?”
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
The first time I played, I wasn’t very good at head games and I’d never played chess.
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
“A little bit; if I get lost, his highness will teach me, right?”
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
“All right.”
To help the translator, read webnovel stories at awebstories, where the original is.
It is comparable to Japanese chess. The difference is that the pieces you take can be used.
