Mother of a Villainess

Main Story: Chapter 47 Mother and I

“Violet. What’s wrong? Has the tea party finished?”

“Onee-sama, you are early.”

When the carriage arrived at the Marquis Mansion entrance, Mother and my younger brother Glen welcomed me. I didn’t see my younger sister Sainelia because, maybe, she was having her afternoon nap. 

Seeing them made my heart calm.

“Ma, Lettie!”

“Onee-sama!”

I felt comfortable, and the tears that I had been putting up overflowed from my eyes. My vision blurred and I couldn’t see Mother and Glen’s appearance clearly. However, from their tone of voice, there was no doubt that I made them worry.

“Mo…ther. I…I….”

Mother agreed gently to Glen’s words.

Mother’s hand properly patted my head until I settled down, ensuring my body was warm in her embrace.

After a while, I was pulled by Mother to my bedroom.  I snorted as I took off my dress. Mother and Cattleya changed my dress to a comfortable one-piece. 

Laying on the bed, the warm cloth that she brought to my room was placed on my eyes. I gradually rest my eyes after crying.

“Have you calmed down a little bit?”

“… Yes, Mother.”

While I laid down, my tears completely stopped and my breath returned to normal. And now, I was completely struck by embarrassment.

At this age, I was still wailing on my mother’s embrace. It was so embarrassing. The servants around me also looked confused when I took a glance at them. Above all, I was crying at the front door.

I think all of the servants in the Marquis mansion now know that I cried loudly at the place full of people’s eyes. I heard Sara’s voice and the sound of the rattling wagon she brought to the room.

Mother thanked them with a small bow and then ordered them to leave the room. There was only Mother and I left in this room.

“Now, come here. I got some delicious tea. I also specially added some honey.”

After I got up, my eyes took a while to focus. I got off the bed and then sat down on the seat opposite my mother.

Mother herself poured the tea into my cup, and at that moment, I could smell the sweet and elegant scent of rose from it.

“Fufu, drink it slowly. After that, can you tell me your story?”

“… Yes, Mother.”

After I took one gulp, the sweetness and warmness seemed to permeate all over my body.

“Hmm, so the prince…”

After I became calmer, I told Mother everything that happened today.

In the middle of the tea party, I excused myself because I was told that Father was calling for me. About Al and being on the hill. And— about him asking me to be his princess.

It was a bolt from the blue for me, so I thought this topic would make Mother even more surprised. However, I only heard the word “Hmm,” with a little surprised tone from Mother’s mouth. She acted as calm as usual as she drank her tea.

“Uh, uhm, Mother? Are you not surprised?”

When I asked her, Mother lowered her eyes and looked troubled.

“… I am sorry. I was told by Danna-sama to hide it from you. He said that today Prince Albert intended to tell you his feelings. It seems that His Majesty had talked about it with Danna-sama the other day. Otherwise, there is no way he could make such excuses in front of Sonia.”

“I see…”

I was surprised that it had been reported to Father by advance, but I was convinced. If he made a lie that the Prime Minister called without planning ahead, it would be quickly revealed.

That was why he coordinated with Father first.

(Is Father Al’s ally? Then, that means that time I…)

“Violet-chan.”

I hung my head, full of thoughts. , Mother’s voice gently woke me up from it.

“I, and also Danna-sama, wish for your happiness. We always wish for it ever since you were born. I will never accept the marriage you didn’t wish for.”

Mother’s beautiful white hand stretched out, and she put her palm on my hand.

“… That’s why. I will not object to the things you have decided. You don’t have to worry about the Marquis House, you know. Your Father will do his job, so it’s okay. Fufu, Brium-sama is a wonderful person who loves his family, after all.”

Mother who smiled like a little girl and said those words, seems to know everything. That includes the reason why I cried as well.

—- I declined Al’s offer.

We spent most of our childhood together, and of course, even until now Al was still my close friend and I like him. But the love I had for him is not romantic.

The first time when the words “princess” came from his mouth, the feelings that I had were confused.

Becoming a queen— I couldn’t imagine me falling in love with him and accepting the offer happily like a dream come true. Then, I muttered and apologized to him with a very low voice.

Later, he guided me to another carriage that he already prepared for me and said, “Then, see you soon.” 

I couldn’t stand seeing him smiling as usual as he said that. Although I was the one who refused his offer, my chest hurt when thinking that our previous relationship will never be the same again.

“Lettie cherishes the Prince, after all, right?”

I nodded, answering Mother’s question.

“That feeling is also important. I’ve been watching all of you ever since you were little. It was pleasant watching you playing together in the garden.”

“Mother…”

About like, about love, I had always been ignorant about it from my previous life. However, when Al told me how he felt, I noticed the feelings I had.

“Ne, Violet-chan. Let’s talk a lot from now on, okay? And about that hair accessory, it really suits you.”

Mother who smiled softly and gracefully was really like a beautiful flower. I was surprised that she noticed the blue flower hair accessory on my hair that I asked Sara to prepare this morning. My cheeks were getting hotter.

◇◇◇◇

“—Being a princess, huh. It was not like the Prince to express it like an obligation.”

“So Danna-sama also has the same opinion?”

At night, after waiting for Brium to come home, Violet’s mother, Rose, told him what happened in the afternoon. They thought it was very unnatural for the Prince who always did everything calmly to use the word “princess”. 

Everyone who had a close relationship with Violet all knew that she didn’t seek that position.

(Or on the contrary, he purposely used that word to make Lettie refuse it… It might be.)

“Rose, let’s respect the prince’s choice.”

“… Yes, Danna-sama.”

When Rose started to have a distrustful feeling, Brium warned her. Seeing his eyes made Rose noticed one thing.

—So, Danna-sama also knows everything about it.

But he never said it. If he didn’t do so, the determination that the Prince and Violet had will crumble.

And now she knew about it, she decided to seal her mouth.

“Moreover, we will not let Lettie get married in the present time, right?”

“… Brium-sama? I am always on Letty’s side.”

Rose, who was a little fed up with her husband’s serious expression, sympathized with Violet’s future husband.
