The Villainess Will Leave Without Any Regrets

The news that had reached Abella also reached Cade.

It was urgent news that an epidemic had spread in the Amerigo estate. Cade stared curiously at the messenger who had told him this.

‘What has changed?’ Cade slowly pondered the past.

At this time of the year, he had no memory of an epidemic. The outbreak of an epidemic was a little bit later. Even now, the days were not too hot according to the seasons, so it was strange that a new epidemic had occurred.

Subsequent plagues were also caused by decaying flesh of dead animals, not other problems, and not in Amerigo.

If so, what had changed?

Abella was the same before. Whatever it was, she jumped in to save Amerigo. Abella at that time did not have the Abella business, so she did not have the power and money to support it. All that was given to the desperate Abella was the vast territory that had already lost its land power. Abella began to search for minerals to pay off debts accumulated by Amerigo.

It was all she had left.

It was a magic stone that she discovered… This time the order was slightly different, but he knew that Abella could make money with magic stones.

He hadn’t told Abella about the wider view.

However, even in those days, Amerigo estate had no problems. Except for the fact that the coal mine, which had been abandoned for a long time, had to be built one by one since the foundation was weak.

‘What the hell did I miss?’

From the time he noticed that he had regressed.

Cade used his extraordinary memory to protect Amerigo. He thought he had defended Amerigo as well as Abella. And he thought it could be in the future too. Abella didn’t have to come to Cade. The place she spent her whole life may be with someone else rather than by Cade’s side.

His greed and his resentment rose, but he could stand it, as long as Abella would stay alive and not die.

However, things were happening in a way that Cade could not have guessed. Cade’s heart seemed to be shrinking from the anxiety.

Obviously there must be something different about this. Otherwise….

Cade pondered the incident slowly.

Abella was not the kind of person to be foolish. If it was not an epidemic, it would be revealed soon, and even if it was an epidemic…

There must be a reason when she played that odds, but if she was lying, he tried to guess the benefits she could gain.

Abella.

Amerigo.

The magic stone business.

The epidemic.

Finally, the curse.

Cade chuckled. It was because he knew what this was going to be. It was to undermine Abella’s reputation. It was once again a vicious move to put Abella around the bridle of a curse.

“Who the hell is…” Cade clenched his teeth.

There must be an answer among the things he missed. Among the vassals and relatives of Amerigo, those who could use their heads, and among others who had a grudge against Amerigo or who could benefit from this.

The Amerigo’s were those who could do little compared to their resentment and animosity. They were more accustomed to blaming and swearing at others than to using their heads, so there was no need to worry about them.

There was only one person.

Layla Amerigo.

Except for that woman.

Even in the previous life, she was a woman who was anxious because she couldn’t defeat Abella. This time, it was obvious that she would. Layla Amerigo was the woman who thought she should have been born to Amerigo’s direct line. Her hostility started from a feeling of inferiority, and was built up by jealousy and all kinds of ugly emotions.

Layla loved Arsene Sirius. No, actually, he didn’t know if it was love. With a twisted possessiveness, she wanted to have Arsene. Just because he was Abella’s fiance, she wanted to have him.

No way.

What if she was back?

What if she walked the same path?

“Shit.”

He had a gut feeling that something bad was about to happen. Cade, having found a suitable theory, waved the bell. Burke, who was waiting outside for Cade, took the command.

“There is someone around Layla Amerigo right?”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

He planted several informants around Layla, just in case. The quick-witted woman took out some, but a few remained.

“The time has come for them to do their job.”

“I will call them in.”

In a secret way.

Cade nodded his head.
