Because She Had A Time Limit, She Became The Villain’s Daughter-in-law Chapter 41

All right then, lets look at the letters that ca to you.

Letter?

Yes. Bring everything youve got so far.

And so, I gathered a few letters and laid them in front of Olivia.

Now, is there a letter from any children who kept in touch with you when your father was in debt?

Having been weak since childhood, I didnt have any close friends. Even the children who saw my face a few tis when I was young did not contact ever since the Rostry county began to fall in disgrace.

No.

Throw it all away. They will abandon you again if you have difficult tis.

At that, half of the letter flew off the room.

The rumors about Kallaudin being worried and cared for you began after the decision of your recuperation. Do you have any letters before that ti?

No, I dont have any.

Monts later, the other half of the letter flew away as well.

You should just start over.

Yes, well okay.

Then, Lisa approached and spoke. Excuse , I just got a couple of letters from the Duke telling to

What is it?

The Duke has received so letters back after selecting a few candidates to serve as the young ladys godmother.

Huh, Kallaudin used to be so indifferent about it before. Give them to . Let see the list of candidates.

I glanced at the letters with Olivia to see all the potential candidates who were going to beco my godmother.

Heh. This is all rubbish.

Pardon?

They were all against before. Send everything back!

When Olivia handed the letter back to Lisa, she replied in a very nervous and perplexing way.

The Duke said theres no one in the capital who had never fought with Madam Olivia before, so please dont listen to her, and Laria should decide this by herself.

Hearing Lisas words, I was inwardly impressed. As expected, the competent villain had trendous insight.

What are you thinking? How about umfor example

Olivia kept speaking while I pondered about who to choose, saying things like these days any dog was smart and all sorts of other sour remarks.

Excuse , Lisa.

I spoke cautiously.

Did Father really, seriously say that I could decide this myself?

Yes.

She peered anxiously at Olivia, who shouted, Dont! As expected, Olivia cried out in a fit of irritation.

What are you talking about? Im Larias teacher! ! ! Are you going to get a godmother without my opinion? Dont be ridiculous!

Auntie.

I had already made up my mind.

Im an Icard as well! Who is Kallaudin to just tell you to ignore ?! Am I going too easy with my words and actions?

Ive already decided.

What? Olivias eyes twinkled with a runny nose.

Who? So damn woman

Please be my godmother, auntie.

She sat blankly for a mont, blinking her eyes dumbfoundedly. Lisa stepped in gently.

Miss Laria, you dont usually ask your godmother who is in the sa family. They are usually acquaintances or relatives since the goal is to make connections.

Of course, Olivia answered her question quickly before I could.

My last na is Rivien.

She clearly stated that she was part of Icards Duchy earlier, but she changed her words swiftly now

Uh, um

Lisa didnt dare to intervene any further, but she looked at with disagreent.

Having Olivia, who was already close to , as a godmother, was to lose a social clique. I understood Lisas worries, though I didnt want to take a decent person from another family as my godmother for nothing.

Oh, my God.

Olivia said, holding her hands together tight, seemingly surprised still.

Its the first ti Ive ever been asked to be a godmother.

Even though she had a high position in society and a great bloodline, she did not receive a request for a godmother, due to her personality.

Madam, please think about Larias um

What are you saying? Im the best fit for her!

And, there was a reason why other people didnt ask for a godmother

Ill do it because I want to!

She yelled excitedly and said, Get out of my way! Dont disturb ! Laria, Im your godmother!

Olivia smiled proudly, showing extre selfishness.

I was the only one who didnt have a goddaughter though I have a goddaughter now!

Ah

Oh, I didnt know shed love it that much Shed be very disappointed if I ran away

For so reason, I felt slight regret.

Olivia had left imdiately the next morning. It was as if there was nothing for her to do here anymore. Worried that she would leave for Rivien before Evans co back, I said carefully.

But, Evan is Auntie Olivias nephew, you should see his face before leaving

I indeed cherish him, but I dont cherish him that much.

It was a remark that should be reconsidered whether it was true that she cared about him.

Little squirrel.

Before she left, Olivia handed a fan with a tiger embroidered on it.

This is my gift to my goddaughter.

I accepted the fan hesitantly with a slight look of disdain.

No, its not my taste but its hard to get rid of it if you give sothing you used to use

If theres anyone in Borotna that ignores you, then use this. Anyone who has ever heard of the rumor of Riviens wicked woman will lose their tail.

My heart was pounding in conflict.

See you next ti. There will be another ti when my help will be needed.

Soon after Olivia left, Evan arrived. He was holding a bunch of stuff in his hand.

Evan? Whatre all these?

Its newspapers.

There were not many newspapers in the Empire, only five companies.

The picture of Evan handing over the trophy at the award ceremony was taken from all different angles.

However, it wasnt just five

All of this? They are all the sa?

The print is different.

The ink was a little light, vertical lines were there by mistake, and the smudges

Take a copy of what you like the best.

Huh? Yeah

What is this, though?

Ah.

I opened up the fan that Olivia had given as a present and grinned.

My godmother gave it to as a gift. What do you think? Does it look good on ?

Yes, its like a painting when you are spreading that fan.

He continued his answer seriously. A realistic representation of herbivores being eaten by predators. I can feel the cruelty and desperation of the wild.

So He ant that the tiger in the fan would eat .

And, Auntie beca my godmother!

You made the worst choice, Laria.

Evan shook his head, saying the sa thing as Duke Icard.

It must be possible to change your decision.

In any case, I cherished the five copies of the newspaper and the tiger embroidered fan to heart. A few days before I left, sothing very unexpected happened.

Laria, arent you sick today? Are you all right?

Ever since Evan returned from the Academy, he had been sticking next to at the most exclusively dedicated level

Yes, Im really fine. Its not a serious disease. Dont worry. Its not a disease that would really kill .

Is there anything I can do for you?

Hearing his concerns, I decided to be sincere, too.

I want you to fill my surroundings with expensive and pristine things. In that case, I will feel like my heart was filled.

Uh, yeah. All right, I got it.

Please take care of the Oklasia tree in the greenhouse. Itll be hard, but I know you can do it.

Youre consistent, Laria. I cant believe you asked for the most expensive and rare among all trees.

Anyway, Evan continued to visit whenever he could, excluding when he had sword training and succession classes.

Sorry, Laria.

He hugged tightly and patted on the back while I fell asleep.

Youre so sick and still waited for without sleeping on that day

Thats a long ti ago.

What do you an, Ill never forget it.

No. Actually, that day I was eating the Oklasia fruit, so I happened to stay up.

Youve been in line for an hour to buy the dessert for , but I have said an things to you

I couldnt say it wasnt like that, and I felt embarrassed.

Still, youre moving far away I wanted to go with you since you might be really lonely.

Serenas going, so its all right.

The doctor? Are you sure shes okay? That young doctor looks like a punk

Oh my gosh, I cant believe Evan is worrying this much.

What are you talking about?

I shook my head desperately and denied his words.

It would be difficult if he made a fuss about wanting to change my doctor.

Yes, Serena is a good person. Theres a lot to learn, a lot to observe from her. Shes a completely soulful doctor!

.

So, dont worry! And, I want you to beco a great man who lives diligently to continue your fathers legacy.

All right, I will.

Wanting to avoid any future conversation, I pretended to fall asleep and nodded inwardly.

Yeah, carry on your fathers legacy and revive the Duchy of Icard entirely. Swallow the Royal family and eat them all.
