BELLE'S P.O.V
There comes the person who made all this mess.
She is comfortable sitting on a beautiful and expensive couch as if she didn't do anything wrong to someone.
She looked proud and happy at the same time.
I walked in her direction, and when I was near her, she finally noticed me.
Unlike others who will greet someone, especially in a higher position than you, she didn't greet me. She didn't even bother standing and giving her respect to me.
That act made me angrier.
She is really one of a kind woman.
Who would have thought that the kind and innocent girl in the comic would act this way?
I wanted to scold her and ask her why she had changed so much.
But did she really change, or is this her proper behavior? Maybe the comic just wrote her as kind and innocent so that the readers would love her.
Maybe this has been her true nature since then.
I couldn't figure it out before, but now I am sure that I know this isn't Georgia from the comic.
Now that I am confident, I am sure that she will choose to fight me over my apology.
I didn't wait for her response because it looked like she would not give anything, so I sat on the chair myself.
I also didn't greet her because the way she looked at me wasn't welcoming.
Is this the way she wanted to face me?
Bring it on!
"I will get straight to the point. What do you want?"
I am staring directly into her eyes.
I thought she would not waiver, but I saw a little nervousness in her eyes.
"What are you talking about?"
"What are you lying about?"
I want to ask for that.
"Let's get straight to the point, Georgia. I know that you use Hendrick to hurt me, and you also use him to get to where you are right now. So tell me, what do you want for me?"
There is a hint of madness in my voice.
I can feel it. I am so mad at her right now.
"I don't know what you're talking about."
"Really?"
Why can't she just say straight to my face that she hates me?

Why does she want to play behind my back? Just what is wrong with her?


But if that is what she will do, I have no choice.
"If you say so, don't forget that I am in a higher position than you. I can bring you down anytime I want."
Her face sharpened after hearing what I said.
"You can't do anything you want to me because someone in a higher position is backing me."
"Oh yeah? Do you think that person can fight me? Don't forget that I am an official candidate as a princess and was acknowledged by the emperor himself."
Although I didn't want to drag the emperor's name, I couldn't stand talking with Georgia.
I can't let her be rude to me. She must not forget that she is the one who wronged me.
She can say whatever she wants, but I will counter it as much as possible and as much as possible.
I will not let her get on her pace.
She should have known that I am not merciful towards my enemy. I will not let her hurt the people around me anymore.
Now that I said what I wanted, I feel that she is mad.
That rude face that she showed me just a while ago vanished because of what I said.
Does she really think that I will stoop down to her level? Yes, I will fight her, but I will do it face to face and fairly.
Not like her, who likes to backstab.
"You can't just do that to anyone."
Her voice is becoming louder.
Looks like I succeeded in getting on her nerves.
Well, I'm proud of myself. But this isn't the time to celebrate because I still have to face her.
"Think twice, Georgia. Do you really think I can't do that? I was an unfortunate child before I got to where I am now. The emperor got my back. The Hendrick that you used to hurt me is now on my side. The princess and the crown prince are on my side as well. In short, I have the power that you don't."
I gave her a mocking smile.
Georgia bit her lip. She looked angry.
I want to dance because I am happy to see her like that. Am I enjoying tormenting someone right now?
Well, she deserved it anyway.
"Whatever, the fight isn't over yet."
Hmm?
Why does it feel like she is planning something?
"If you say so! Then if you don't have anything to say, I have to go now, bye!"
I was about to stand up when she spoke again.
"Do you really think that Hendrick loves you?"
"Think again, Belle!"
I turned my gaze back to her. There's a mocking smile on her face.
Is she making me right now?
Hmm...
"HAHAHA!"
I couldn't help but laugh.
"Why are you laughing?!"


I can't stop laughing because my stomach is almost hurting.
I raise my hand and ask if I am signaling her to stop.
"I'm sorry, it's just that you are spouting nonsense just now."
"Nonsense?"
"Uh-huh! Well, you said that maybe he doesn't love me, as if you are saying that he is just fooling me, right?"
Georgia didn't answer me, so I continued.
"I am really sorry to tell you that I am certain that Hendrick loves me even if you say anything. Do you remember the time when he didn't accept your love?"
I just remembered this from the information that arkanghel gave me.
This time, Georgia and Hendrick met on some trip because Hendrick was assigned on a mission when unexpectedly, they met.
They stayed in the same hotel and what is shocking is that Georgia tried to sleep with Hendrick.
I am still not sure that Hendrick is not fooling me, but I am confident he didn't like Georgia.
I am hundred percent sure that there's no romantic relationship between Hendrick and Georgia.
Unless George is in love with him?
Oh my!
"Don't tell me you have feelings for Hendrick?"
Georgia couldn't speak.
Her response made me laugh harder.
"So you are in love with him, and you use him thinking that he will fall into your trap, but unfortunately he didn't, aw... Poor Georgia, you like someone who doesn't like you back."
The fact that Georgia is making it right now isn't good, but I am enjoying it.
So that is the reason why she chose Hendrick to hurt me because she thought that Hendrick would fall in love with her.
That will surely hurt me badly when I see them together in love with each other.
That's so dumb.
They only met a few times; why does she think that Hendrick will fall in love with her instantly?
"I love him more than you do!"
Huh?
"Really? Then should I say 'congratulations?"
She loved him more than I did, then what should I do?
"Do you want me to work things out for you? I can do that, but do you really think that he will fall in love with you even if I do it?"
The corner of my lips raises.
"If you think that he will fall in love with you that easily, then I will help you but remember that he already rejected you?"
"...besides, do you really think that he will fall in love with someone who just uses him to hurt someone and be known by the people?"
I shook my head.
"I don't think so!" I continued.
She isn't saying anything, but she is glaring at me as if she wants to kill me anytime.
If only her gaze could kill then, I would be dead by now.
"So what do you want me to do? Come on, tell me."
I waited for her response, but she didn't say anything.
Is she really going to just accept that I won?
I look around us. Some people are looking at us but at me particularly.
I smiled at them and bowed slightly as a sign that I recognized them and respected them.
I waited for a few more minutes, but there was still no response from Georgia.
I look at her again. But now, she isn't glaring at me anymore; she is now looking at the food on her plate.
Does she want us to eat first before we continue?
If that is what she wants, then I should order for myself.
I was about to call the waiter when suddenly I felt something wet splash into my face.
I heard a gasp.
I checked myself just to see that the juice on her side was thrown at me.
Did she just-?
I turned my gaze to her, and now she was smiling from ear to ear.
"Oops!"
She is smiling while mocking me.
I couldn't help but laugh. She really plays dirty.
But then, if she wanted to fight this way, I would do it the same way she wanted.
I grabbed the glass of water near me and threw it to her.
I didn't realize that the glass was also thrown at her.
"Oops! Sorry, my hand slipped!"
All her face down to her chest was wet.
The glass is quite extensive, so it contains a lot of water compared to what she just splashed on me.
Her face doesn't look good. It looked like she was about to cry.
I grabbed the tissue on the table and started to write myself off.
I was just looking at her until I finished wiping myself. To my surprise, she didn't react rashly.
What is she thinking?
I waited for her to say anything, but all she did was stare at me as if she was killing me in her mind.
A moment later, a servant came to us, but they gave me a handkerchief first rather than Georgia.
That act made Georgia angrier, and she shouted at the servants.
"Why are you assisting her first? I am the one who reserved this table!"
The staff was troubled because she was shouting.
"Assist me first!"
While the others were troubled by her, I was just casually wiping myself with the handkerchief they gave me.
I will just watch from here.
I don't know how May and Arkanghel will react if they see me like this.
I'm sure I would get a lot of scolding because they wanted me to know that something might happen, but I still didn't let them accompany me.
But what should I do? I don't want them to experience the same thing between Hendrik and me.
Who knows if Georgia also does things to them?
The staff assisted Georgia while the others helped me. Georgia is still shouting as if the team did her wrong.
Why is she doing that to the staff?
Don't tell me she is letting her feelings act in this situation?
But the staff didn't do anything wrong to her! Just what is she doing?
When she finally calmed down, the staff left the table after asking me many times is okay.
Of course, I told them that I was okay because Georgia might do something to them if they continued assisting me.


When they finally left, I stared back at Georgia.
She is also staring at me, but she isn't saying anything, so are we just going to stare at each other here?
I thought she would say something, but a moment had passed, and she was still glaring at me while she closed her fist.
You know what? I am pretty scared because she isn't saying anything.
She just kept on glaring at me, and it was not expected.
Is it her habit to stare at other people, or is it just not normal?
I laughed because of what I just thought, but it looked like she didn't want me to laugh because she hit the table with her hand.
Oh, is she mad again just because I laugh?

She gets mad quickly. That is surprising! Where is Georgia that is just mocking me just a while ago?
I looked around and saw that many eyes were staring at us already.
This is because of her. Why does she have to make a scene in public?
Because I was embarrassed by what just happened, I smiled at all of them and bowed to them slightly.
When they smiled back at me, that is where I thought that everything was all right, a little now.
So I turned my gaze back to Georgia. She is still glaring at me.
I raise my eyebrow by looking at her, and to my surprise, Georgia stands up and snatches my hair.
"Ah! What are you doing?!"
