My villain wants to save himself, but the yandere heroine disagrees

“…” Olivia was shocked when she heard what Lianka said.

"Lianka...did someone teach you to say that just now?"

"No, sister, what I just said came purely from my heart."

"Then tell me, why do you like Orson? You and him obviously have nothing in common..."

"I...I..." Lianka was stunned and began to think about the reasons why she liked Orson.

She quickly searched through every fragment of her encounter with Orson in her memory, and then found...

It seems that Orson really...

Thinking of this, Lianka said, "Sister, you want to ask me the reason, right? Then I will tell you."

"From the first day we met, I was fascinated by Orson's handsome face. After that, even though I said I hated Orson, I would always consider his every move unconsciously in my heart."

"Even when you and Orson were chatting together, I would also get a little irritable for no reason. At that time, I thought I was angry because you were talking to Orson, whom I hated. In fact, it was not the case. I was just jealous because I liked Orson."

"After that, I was feeling down one time and ran to the small pavilion next to the artificial lake. It was Orson who came to comfort me. Although I said that I didn't want Orson to get close to me, I was actually looking forward to seeing him..."

"So, when Orson came to my house that day to help me with my psychological problems, I followed my heart. Yes, I used the dream to confuse myself, but in fact I was just following my heart. I wanted to be with Orson."

Olivia looked at Lianka in front of her. She was stumbling at the beginning, but as time went on, Lianka's tone became more and more determined, and a look of surprise appeared on her face.

Oh no, I just wanted to use this trick to make Lianka back down, but Lianka really gave a lot of reasons. Could it be that this girl really liked Orson before, but she just misunderstood her feelings for Orson.

Then after my suggestion, she should understand it clearly, right?

What is this? Is this a trick to trick the ultimate?

In short, Olivia is indeed a little panicked now.

At first she thought it was just a trick of Leeteuk, but now it seems that the saying "a fly never bites an egg without cracks" is true, and her sister seems to really like Orson...

Even though I had warned him indirectly before, it didn't have any effect.

Olivia is feeling a little numb right now.

She didn't know what to say.

"Anyway, sister, can you understand how I feel?"

As Lianka was talking, she also noticed something was wrong.

This didn't seem to be my original purpose.

But I don’t know why, as I was talking, I ended up getting myself involved.

It sounded like I really liked Orson.

But no matter what, as long as I can convince my sister, it's good.

"Lianka..." Olivia said, and shook her head regretfully. "Although I know what you mean, the news of the change of the engagement has spread. If we change it back, how will outsiders view our family?"

"If we frequently change our engagement, outsiders will think that our family doesn't keep its promises..."

"But this isn't a change of contract. This is just returning the contract to its original form..."

"Could it be that, sister, you actually don't want to do this?" Lianka stared at Olivia with a surprised look.

"No, of course not." Seeing her sister's expression, Olivia was shocked, and then quickly shook her head. "Of course, if it is for your happiness, sister, of course I am willing to do this..."

"Then why..." Lianka asked puzzledly.

“…” Olivia was silent for a while.

Can she not act in this play?

She now inexplicably felt a lot of pressure, and the psychological burden of lying to her sister had become greater than ever before.

In the past, she could use the fact that Lianka didn’t like Orson to justify her actions, but now it seems that Lianka really likes Orson. What should she do?

If I refuse, wouldn't I really be regarded as a bad sister who takes away my sister's man?

But if I agree, I won't be willing to do it in my heart, and Orson will definitely not be willing either.

Thinking of this, Olivia came up with an idea.

She said, "After all, the engagement is not something that can be decided by two people. There are still problems with Orson. If Orson doesn't like you, the engagement cannot be changed. So, we will talk to Orson about this matter later. If he disagrees..."

"Okay." Lianka nodded after hearing this.

Indeed, this is all Lianka can do, and any changes to the engagement still require the opinion of Orson himself.

"In that case, let's take a rest today and talk about it tomorrow." Olivia said this and hurried upstairs.

Who could have thought that today, Olivia thought she could control Lianka, but in the end she was defeated and ended up fleeing in panic.

Maybe this is what they call a fool being nemesis of a black heart.

……

On the other side, the city of Constantine.

A group of soldiers pushed open the door of a private house. At this moment, a man was hanging from the beam in the room, and a suicide note was left on the table.

"I burned the house and killed the man."

The soldier in charge of the search saw the suicide note and took it to the search captain.

The captain took a look, then turned and waved.

"Case closed, team closed."

"But, sir, there are still many doubts in this case... What if this person committed suicide and the suicide note was forged, what should we do..."

"Why are you talking so much nonsense?! Didn't you hear what I said?" The captain pointed at the soldier and glared at him. "Case closed, team disbanded!"

"This is an order from above, don't be ungrateful!"

Upon hearing this, the soldier had no choice but to nod respectfully.

"As ordered!"

In the Imperial City, in the Public Security Office, Elsa looked at the paper handed to her and nodded.

The above content is the investigation report on the death of Baron Trist.

After investigation, it was found that Drizzt died in an accident. A drunkard who held a grudge against Drizzt sneaked into Drizzt's mansion when the guards were not paying attention and assassinated Drizzt. At the same time, in order to destroy the body and create an accident, he also burned down the house.

But after Drizzt's death, the search intensified, and the drunkard realized that he didn't have much time left, so he simply committed suicide out of fear of the crime.

"Can we just close this case with this result?" a sheriff asked respectfully, his head lowered.

"Yeah." Elsa agreed, "It's pretty good."

"By the way, during our investigation, we also discovered that one of Baron Drizzt's guards, named David, disappeared after the incident. What should we do about this?"

"That David must have fled because of his poor supervision, which led to Drizzt's death, right?" Elsa put the paper aside and rubbed her temple.

The man was not murdered, and all our current efforts should be used to solve the most important case at hand."

The case Elsa was talking about was, of course, Mudrick's demonization.

"Okay, Your Highness, but regarding the case of Mudrick, after we found the man named Rody, the clues were cut off..."

"If the clues are gone, just look for it from other directions. Do you still need me to teach you how to do it?" Elsa frowned.

This is the sentence she heard the most these days. Therefore, she gets a headache whenever she hears that the clue is broken.

How could Rody, a living person, disappear in Saint Laurent City?

A possibility came to mind, but Elsa still shook her head.

It's impossible that he did this. Elsa and he should be in a cooperative relationship. If he did this, he should have informed Elsa.

Not long after the sheriff walked out, there was another knock on the door, and then a tall and straight man in a military uniform walked in.

"Hey, Elsa, have you been busy lately?" The person who walked in was the eldest prince Arthas.

Although she was unhappy with the smile on Arthas' face, Elsa, as a princess, still smiled.

"No, I can't compare to you, my brother." She said this and took a look at Arthas's outfit. "My brother, you look like you are going to the front line? Where are you going this time?"

"This time, I will lead the team to Antica."

"Is it to deal with orcs?"

"Yes." Arthas nodded. "The orcs are becoming more and more rampant. I will leave today, and I thought I would come to see you before I leave."

"Well, may I wish you, my brother, good luck in military affairs?"

"Thank you, Royal Sister." Arthas said this and smiled at Elsa.

Chapter 4: The Storm is Coming (K)

Duchy of Antica, city of Antica, ducal residence.

This morning, Mary was processing government documents submitted from various places as usual.

Because she had been half-warned by Lucius once before, Mary now did not dare to do anything beyond her duties.

After finishing her business, she stood up and walked to the door.

At the door, her loyal guard Randall was already waiting there. When he saw her come out, he quickly took the coat on the hanger at the door and put it on Mary's shoulders.

It is already September and we are gradually entering autumn. Although there is a magical device in the room to keep it heated, when we go outside, we still have to wear more clothes to prevent colds due to the sudden temperature difference.

"Madam, are you going out today?" After helping Mary put on her clothes, Randall stood respectfully by her side, like a loyal guard.

"I'll go to the master's room first. Someone else is in charge of the municipal construction of Antica City. I only need to go there occasionally to check on the situation." Mary said.

In the past three or four months, the construction group under Celinina has completed the construction of the new city area of ​​Antica. During the construction process, they mobilized the power of magicians to make the originally heavy transportation task easier. During the entire construction process, magicians were also widely involved in cutting building materials and low-altitude operations.

Of course, among this group of participating magicians, there are very few half-baked first- and second-level magicians. Most of them are third-level professional magicians hired by Chelinina through the Adventurer's Association.

In order to enhance the reputation of the Ministry of Construction, Chelinina spared no expense and specially hired a sixth-rank magician as the commander-in-chief of the construction magician team.

As a result, in just a few months, a brand new urban area of ​​Antica was built, and several urban problems originally faced by Antica were solved almost instantly.

At first, Mary was worried that the citizens of Antica would be unwilling to leave their hometown, but later it was proved that Mary was just overthinking.

Citizens would definitely be more willing to move to a location with a more comfortable environment and better overall atmosphere, right next to their original homes.

At the same time, after this round of new urban area construction, the city of Antica, whose population growth had been gradually stagnating, has regained the motivation to attract immigrants.

The original reason why the Duchy of Antica could not develop was because the core city of the Duchy was too small.

As a ducal capital, Antica can only be regarded as a medium-sized city in the empire. After this round of expansion, Antica can barely be considered a large city, but it is still far from the capitals of other duchies.

In the ranking of cities in the empire, the first place is undoubtedly the capital city of Saint Laurent, followed by

The first tier of big cities are Romulus in the Duchy of Naples, Brandenburg in the Duchy of Prussia, Parry in the Duchy of Orleans, Navarre in the Duchy of Aragon and Neva in the Duchy of Lucia.

The second tier of big cities are the second core cities of the royal territories and other duchies, that is, a large city that spontaneously formed far away from the capital of a duchie.

The next city was Antica.

After all, it has a lot to do with the fact that the Duchy of Antica was established relatively late.

The western part of the Duchy of Antica, including the city of Antica, was divided from the royal direct jurisdiction at the time and was not an economic center. In the eastern part, many cities in the newly conquered territory were previously independent city-states and it was difficult for them to unite for common development.

Developing the core city of the Duchy of Antica this time will drive the development of the entire Duchy of Antica.

This is why Orson persuaded Lucius and Mary to use Celinina's construction team to build the new city of Antica.

At first, when Orson proposed to build a new city district, Mary also agreed, but Mary only saw that the new city district could alleviate the old problems of Antica City, but ignored the new hope that the new city district could bring to Antica City.

At this moment, when the role of the new urban area was gradually revealed, Mary was surprised by Orson's foresight.

But what followed was a deep fear.

I originally thought that Orson was only good at both civil and military strategies, but now it seems that Orson also has insights into state governance that far exceed ordinary people.

If this is the case, when Orson graduates and comes back, will there be no place for me in this family? Should I then hand over the financial power?

After all, although Mary has firmly grasped the financial power of the Duchy over the years, she has only ensured the smooth development of the Duchy without any accidents, and has not allowed the Duchy to make any substantial progress.

And Orson, with just this one plan, seems to be able to revitalize the economy of the entire Duchy of Antica.

This kid has never touched money since he was a child, so why is he so capable?
