Chapter 80: What a Waste of Time

"Adela?" Aurora called out.

Seeing Adela’s appearance, she knew that this Adela should have known something. And it shouldn’t be because of any swordsmanship skills or anything like that.

Adela’s weak body made her unable to practice the swordsmanship.

No matter how much Adela might want it, their father would never allow Adela to learn swordsmanship in fear that his daughter would get sick. Even her food had to be monitored to make sure that there wouldn’t be anything bad added in.

Because Adela’s body was weak and even after being nourished, it hadn’t improved that much.

And Aurora thought about that paper again.

There were many things that were crossed out but there were also things that were not crossed. She still kept them since she was not entirely sure if these events would really happen or not.

But she never put too much importance to it.

Because the future is not absolute.

Her action, every single moment of it, will bring a different path to the future.

However, it seemed that there were still some things that would remain the same as what Adela had known. Because there was indeed someone who came to the balcony not long ago, but her skills were too poor and Aurora noticed it first.

"Ah..." Adela came to herself and felt a bit flustered. "Sorry, Sister, I... want to ask for help to find the person who destroy my dress."

Aurora blinked her purple hue eyes.

She knew who did it and even talked with that girl some time ago.

But...

"Sorry, Adela, the party will start soon and you wouldn’t want to miss it, right?" Aurora asked with a helpless tone. "Besides, I’m not really good at looking for people. How about if you let your maids to help you search along with my maids and the few others? There are so many people here, perhaps someone see something."

Adela wanted to pull Aurora out just to check the balcony, but Aurora’s words made all words stuck in Adela’s throat.

She looked at the balcony and felt rather stressed.

If nothing happened here, she would have no excuse to go to the balcony to check like what happened in that game.

Should she press forward?

But if she did and there was nothing, she would only hurt her image even more.

Her embarrassing result in class had only improved a bit. Even though her ranking was not very high, but it had appeared in the list. In this way, it could be seen that her score was still around average.

The other students also no longer mocked her openly.

But comparing Adela with Aurora was inevitable since one of them was indisputable number one.

"It’s reasonable." Mirabelle snorted. She crossed her arms and said, "Besides, I don’t want to waste so much of my time for this. I’m only following you because I don’t want that girl to hurt me too!"

Hurt you too?

Aurora’s eyes condensed and there was a faint chills in her eyes.

After talking with that girl, Aurora knew very well that the one who instigated the girl to do this was Mirabelle. This girl might not give a direct instruction, but her words instilled the urge for that girl to commit this crime, thus causing this chaos.

If it was investigated, it wouldn’t be able to be connected to Mirabelle since she never gave any order whatsoever.

At most, there would be some suspicion.

But in the end, Mirabelle could attribute it to the girl’s unfounded remarks because she was jealous or something like that.

Aurora knew very well the tactics that were commonly used by the nobility and this was one of them. The real powerful one never need to do anything by themselves because they only needed to move their mouth and someone else would step forward to finish the job.

In this way, their hands would always appear to be clear.

"I... I know," Adela finally said.

Aurora nodded. "Les, tell the others to cooperate with Adela’s maid to help looking for the culprit. She shouldn’t have gone too far."

"Yes, Miss." Les bowed down and instructed the other maids.

There were naturally other maids who followed Aurora, but they could never serve Aurora directly. She had Les and it was enough.

For these maids to enter Aurora’s eyes, they have to work harder.

Adela clenched her fist and after saying thank you, she closed the door again. The maids started to discuss among themselves about who should work and who shouldn’t.

For this matter, Adela stayed silent.

She never had the complete control over her maids because many of them were still following her father and mother’s order. But Adela never truly mind this because she knew her parents would not hurt her.

"I’ll be going now." Mirabelle clicked her tongue. "What a waste of time."

Adela looked at Mirabelle and her eyes condensed.

There were two big villainess in the game, one of them was Aurora White, the fiancée of Crown Prince Edward. And the other one was Mirabelle, Crown Prince Edward from his mother’s side.

But the two of them have completely different style.

Aurora is the epitome of elegance. Even until the every end, she still looked like a high ranking lady and never looked embarrassed or at loss. Not only that, her score and performance was also at the very top, overlooking everyone from the position they could never compare.

On the other hand, Mirabelle was the sharp tongued and also relatively brash. Her result was not very good, but with the support of her mother’s family, she could do almost anything she wanted.

And it was also because of this status that Mirabelle was close to Crown Prince Edward and the other capture target.

Yes.

It was an otome game.

And what happened just now should have been an event that happened during Aurora’s sixth and final year of school. Yet, it happened on the third year, which meant that Adela had caused a lot of problems in the storyline.
