The face of Duke Vallua, who confirmed the documents, was pale. He soon threw away the papers and shook my shoulders roughly.
āThe Duke of Dubbled! Is he going to destroy my family?!ā
I could feel a sharp gaze from the bushes. Zachary was ready to pop out.
<b>āNot now. I told you to pop out when my life is in danger.ā</b>
He clenched his fist and said.
āDo you think I canāt handle a mere childā¦!ā
The Duke of Vallua pushed me. I lost my balance and hit my back against the fountain.
The knights of Dubbled, who came running, aimed their swords at the Duke of Vallua.
<b>āTheyāre here sooner than I thought.ā</b>
I thought they would notice as soon as I disappeared, but I didnāt know it would be this fast.
<b>āItās a little early, butā¦ā</b>
All right, letās do it!
So that everyone in the party can hear it.
Surprised by the sound, people rushed out. The first person to come was my family.
I acted like a scared little child.
Dad raised his voice. He bent his knees and looked at me crying.
Dadās face hardened. Isaac pushed the knights and came to me.
āDid he hit you? Huh?!ā
I nodded quickly, I showed my red shoulder, and pointed at other places as well.
āHere, here and here!ā
I used to be a bluffing king.
I smiled viciously inside, but I looked scared on the outside. If my beggar friends saw me, they would notice my bluffing.
āThe Duke of Vallua drank too much alcoholā¦ā
āHeās assaulting a child?ā
The guests were shocked and murmured, as my familyās expression became cold.
I turned my body slightly to block Isaac and the Duke of Vallua.
My aunt popped out and unexpectedly caught the Duke of Vallua.
āHitting a child? How dare you?ā
My aunt is not really a saint but she never really crosses the line.
When she heard about the incident in which Teramore assaulted Henry, I heard that she was in a hurry and meticulously checked the brotherās teacher even though they were in the academy.
However, at a party prepared by my aunt, he assaulted her nephew, behind my auntās back, so it makes sense that she was that angry.
Others were rooting for her.
<b>āBut you canāt!ā</b>
The Duke of Vallua is very weak.
All he has done in his life is studying or doing dirty work. One punch is enough for aunt, who crossed the wall of life and death as the captain of the White Horse Battalion, to beat him up.
<b>āIf he gets beaten up, my plan will beā¦!ā</b>
There were already people who frowned.
They were more amazed to see a noble who was trying to solve the problem with her fists rather than the assaulted child.
<b>āThereās going to be a debate from now on. I need to make sure that the public is leaning towards me before my family gets into trouble.ā</b>
I quickly hung on my auntās waist.
āLet go, Leblaine! Heās assaulted a child!ā
āIf you hit the Duke of Vallua, people might say that Dubbled is a villain family again!ā
The surrounding became quiet when I shouted.
āWe didnāt do anything wrong, but people think weāre villains. So you have to think and act carefully. No matter how hard I try, if my aunt hits the duke now, weāll be called villains againā¦I donāt like that. I donāt want my family to be bad people.ā
āSo now I wonāt cry even if I get hit. Aunt, donāt be angry!ā
Then some soft-hearted ladies ran to me.
āOh my god, so thatās what you thought.ā
My godmother bent her knees and made eye contact with me.
āChild, you donāt have to worry about such things.ā
I cried on the outside, but was smiling inside.
The parents looked at the Duke of Vallua with an angry look.
The Duke of Vallua was surprised by the fact that he was caught assaulting a child.
āDo you know what the child of fate told me? If others had heard of it, they wouldnāt have been able to control their anger as well!ā
Godmother hid me behind her back and said to the Duke of Vallua.
āShe insulted me by saying abusive language! She also said she lent me money, and she wants to put us up for sale right now! She says our family is trash. How dare you!ā
People looked at me, so I quickly grabbed the skirt of godmother and shrugged my shoulders.
āChild, is that true?ā
āI donāt know what the Duke is talking aboutā¦ā
The Duke of Vallua said similar words when he was caught abusing me in the church.\nāYou have to doubt other peopleās goodwill. Itās bad of you not to doubt why Iāve done that kind of favor to you, whoās not even my family.ā
The duchess sat down with a pale face as she sobbed.
Public opinion was on my side, and behind my back, I have a lot of strong supporters, I also have strength and money in my hands.
āLetās go find the Nogak.ā
Iāll show them whoās the real devil.
Now itās time to put the devilish Valluas under the guillotine.
