The Hero Proposed to Me

Who cares. I already knew what they were plotting so I prevented it before anything could happen.

Im going to wear the same dress my older sister is wearing!

I kept crying and said I would not attend to the party if I dont get to wear the same dress to my sister. My mother and father came to stop me but I could not stand back as my life was at risk. Not until my throat became hoa.r.s.e was I able to enter the party room wearing the same dress. My big picture is to strengthen the position of the heroine, Clara. Oh, how foxy I am. My last birthday pa.s.sed while I marveled my intelligence and the long-awaited eighth birthday arrived.

I prepared Miss Claras dress.

As if they already expected I was going to make a mess, Mrs. Lisbon prepared quite a few dresses. I chose the most graceful and fanciest golden dress.

This will suit me the best!

No doubt this dress will be the most noticeable dress as it will contrast Claras ebony hair. Of course that isnt the only reason. It is also because today is the long-awaited fated day.

Isnt this going to be too fancy?

No, it is so beautiful.

As this party is a really important affair, such preparation is necessary. Why? Today is the first day Clara meets the hero of the novel. As the male main character is going to wear a gold uniform and if I wear the same color I would at least receive a glance. And, if people surrounding drive up the atmospheregame over. My evil plan just started.

The hero of the novel is Alex, the son of the King and the heir to the throne. He was the one who executed Siel. By the way, Alex is my most favorite male character among countless other characters. This was the reason why I wanted to be Clara, not Siel whose head is beheaded. Alex is the most ideal hero of a romance fantasy story. Hes smart, powerful, smart and is cold-hearted at all times but is warm towards his beloved woman. He is the s.e.xiest guy of this era. He is the invincible sword master and once he thinks someone is the one, he obsesses madly. Dark indigo hair and the eye redder than ruby, I almost had a heart attack when I first saw the cover. Oh, I love obsessed man. Alex is a genius who pa.s.sed early graduation of the academy and he even took cla.s.ses to be the next emperor. Of course the emperor wanted to afford the best bride for his son and that turns out to be, um, Siel, so yeah it turns out to be me.

What do you want to be when you grow up, sis?

Hmm, I probably would wan to marry a man and become a mother.

Oh my, what should I do with this unselfish and unambitious kid. I busted into tears watching Clara who wanted to be a good wife and wise mother. Unlike Clara, who lost her family since she was young and who wanted to have a normal and happy marriage. Alex wasnt really interested in marriage. So at first, he decided to marry Siel without hesitance. The problem is that Siel found out Clara is an adopted child.

Youre not even our real family! You deceived me, you b.i.t.c.h!

Siel filled with anger insulted Clara in front of everyone. She even used some bad language a child should not use. Despite the conditions, it isnt pretty to look at an eight year old girl cursing her sister because shes adopted. The readers were furious and the comment window was flaming. Anyway, Alex also witnessed this moment and recognized the Siels malicious behavior and started to feel pity toward Clara. This incident becomes the main reason Alex kills Siel. After that, Alex started babysitting Clara like he is her mother bird. He started to hate Siel who desired to become the crown princess and kills her in the end In order to keep the happy and safe rich life for myself, I have to pa.s.s this first test. I have to pa.s.s this test and connect the relationship between Clara and the Prince. If I am unlucky I could be directly thrown into h.e.l.l. So what can I do? I have to help them get along well.

You are going to be so beautiful in this dress. So please wear this dress as my birthday present!

Clara standing in front of the fancy gold dress looked confused. It was because she would be wearing a dress more beautiful than me who is the one being celebrated today.

But Lady Siel

What, are there any problems?

No.

Mrs. Lisbon remained silent looking at my unpleasant face. Its obvious shell be saying Siel is the star so Clara cannot be too conspicuous. I was speechless looking at her remaining silence as glared at her.

Can I really wear this dress?

Of course! I like you so much. I hope you look the best on my birthday!

You tell me. Is being beautiful more important or my life? Clara unaware of my desperate mind hugged me with a grin on her face.

I love you too my younger sister.

As I noticed her eyes were turning red, I hugged her without words. Poor Clara. Before being adopted into Duke Valentines family, she lived with her real family and had a younger sister. When her whole family decided to go on a trip, Clara had to be left behind because she had a fever. Her parents and younger sister said they will be back soon, and they would buy a gift on the way back and gave her a kiss on the cheek. Their carriage was overturned on a rainy day and none of them came back alive.

I am so glad I have a younger sister.

The day Siel was born, Clara was truly glad. Honestly, if I wasnt born she would hog all the love of Duke and d.u.c.h.ess Valentine. Even though Clara could envy her sister, she never did. She sincerely loved Siel. Siel reminded Clara of her dead younger sister. How sweet she is. A dumb girl like her needs an evil guardian like me. From now on, dont worry. Im going to make you happy. I gave Clara the prettiest dress and took on my party costume. I started preparing for things after deciding my sisters dress. My humble servant Meril kept smiling while combing my hair.

You are adorable as always.

You like me too much, Meril.

Of course, I am so happy to serve you.

Meril was too loyal that, she bullied Clara as Siel told her to and was tortured until death few days before Siel was killed I could not let such a loyal servant die like the original story. I sighed looking at Meril who had just turned eighteen.

You are too nice to me.

Of course, you are the most vulnerable master to me.

Oh please, you shouldnt treat a little girl like that.

You are so funny.

Even though I talk like a precocious child, no one suspected I had the mind of an adult. They just thought I was imitating them. While Meril was putting up a ribbon on my hair, someone came into my room.

My beloved daughter! Are you well prepared?

Daddy!

He was a handsome man with chocolate color hair. It was hard to believe he was a father of five kids. The real jack-of-all-trades in this novel. Also, he is a well-known husband who never when against his wife and a magician with immense power in the Valentine family. Ive been repeating countlessly; this novel doesnt keep the balance. All he had was only money and power but there was one thing he couldnt have, daughters. Although he had three children, they were all sons. All of the offspring they had were all sons. All he wanted was a daughter who resembled his wife. His prayers must have reached the sky for the first time in hundred years, a daughter was born and he became the winner.

How pretty she is, my beloved daughter, shes an emerald.

Oh please Daddy.

No one can stop daddy in his idiotic mode. Not until I was rubbed by his mustache, could I escape from him. As each child needs to be loved the same, I grabbed his fore sleeve.

Daddy, I want to see Clara. She is so pretty tonight.

Oh is it darling? Should we go and see her?

Okay!

Siels command is absolute to Duke Valentine. Ive never seen a man like this before. He just loves his daughter too much. He would dance and sing if Siel tells him to do so. Mom sometimes would look somewhat upset but dad doesnt care. If the daughter likes it, then father likes it too. I decided to take advantage of this. Because Siel likes Clara, naturally dad starts to care for Clara.

Clara!

Me and Duke Valentine appeared and every maid kneeled down.

Clara, are you ready?

Yes, father.

How beautiful she is. The maids had to decorate her well because I gave them a mean look.
