All Chapters of Stolen Identity: Villainess' Awakening: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

When I asked Jaime, he froze for a few minutes before shaking his head and giving me a bashful smile. Although it caused me to furrow my brows, I kept quiet because I already knew who the person is.Jaime is the kind of person who isn’t used to winning over the aristocrats. He would prefer to speak to them directly, but he will eventually become tense later.I recall when I first met him, he also behaved in that manner, and when I later followed him about, I realized that he was similarly nervous but was simply masking those feelings in the shadows.He's already awakening memories I choose to suppress because I'm only thinking about my vengeance based on the way he currently behaves.Even the beginning of the enjoyable moments I spent with Kaylla, Linia, Jaime, Sebastian, May, and the others help me escape the trauma I’ve experienced as if they were just nightmare disguised as mists in the clouds. It only lasted one day before it was forgotten.I nod in response as Jaime replies, "M-M

I close my mouth while covering it with both hands. My eyes enlarge as I become more aware of the voice.The Duchess is speaking, and I can almost make out her weapon splashing against the man's back. Screams rang out throughout the area, but no one seemed to have heard them because nobody rushed to the man's aid.I then realized that everything had been well thought out. Because of this, they already gave the impression that servants are not permitted.It is a result of how sensitive people are to cries for aid. It's a pretty astute maneuver from the Duke, or maybe the Duchess planned it all out? Who knows, but I'm convinced of one thing: no one in this noble family's home is innocent, even though at some point their fortune has grown suspiciously huge.I maintain control over my breathing until I hear more from the man whom the Duchess is still torturing. The sound of the unknown weapon the Duchess used, however, which had previously caused my ears to bleed, was overshadowed by sile

Finally, night has descended once more. My desk is filled with letters from various dignitaries as I strained my eyes.As Kaylla and I are moving about the household, a servant says, "Milady, Sir Rutherford said that you should always be careful," he bows and nods in response to my thanks and nods.Now that night has fallen, I examine my hands. After having soft hands my entire life, I am finally able to see some signs of struggle in them. I can now feel the hardships and calluses from my first life imprinted on my palms, marking an event I will never forget.I spend my life in that manner, and I will never forget those who deceived me. I shake my head while making tight fists with my hands.I suppose this time, I can finally complete my goals, but I suppose I have to first apologize to Sir Rutherford since, no matter what I do, I will never be able to avoid harm.Once I’m confident of what I’m going to do after hearing those words in a whisper, I didn't hesitate to smile. To make a c

I examine my surroundings to make sure nobody will notice me. Even though I had already assured the horseman that I would have plenty of time to explore the area, he had no reason to believe me until I said a few things that I had previously told him. Perhaps having a cause makes being strict not so bad.When things appear to be going according to my intentions, that is.After setting my feet firmly on the uneven ground, I straighten my coat and keep my eyes narrow as I hide in the nooks of the room. The environment is not dark. It is illuminated by a lovely golden light coming from the wall-mounted lamps.One thing I can be sure of is that these people, who are dressed in all black and have black masks covering their faces, appear to be involved in what Alexis had depicted. My eyes follow every movement of the people surrounding the area.Even if the people's images weren't drawn, it turns out that the deceased servant knew what he was doing.My eyes widen as I prepare to leap step,

He stares at me as if looking for my soul, but instead of responding to me right away, he leaves me speechless. Similar to how Auster had earlier in the day, I felt exposed in front of them even though I wasn't.I give him the same look he has on me rather than cowering my way out. He releases me first with a deep sigh, "Executioner, huh?” And then we continue to stare into each other's eyes.“Funny how you act like such a tough young lady when you can't even handle the threats around you.”“Even though you are one of them, I am already negotiating a deal with you.”“What will I receive if I carry out your plans, then?“I'll follow your instructions, with one exception, though.”“One thing, right?”“I am now your brother's friend, so I can't follow your advice to avoid him.”He says, "Friend, such a poor term to utter," and then chuckles, as if I had just said something amusing to him.“I guess there's something about you that intrigues me, but I'm not asking that. Fine… as long as yo
