Why Did I Become the Villainess?

Chapter 444: : Care?



I take a peek at Prince Fraser who is currently sitting on the couch inside my room.

After I realized that everything is not a dream, he insisted on staying here with me. He said he was worried about me so he wanted to stay here to make sure that I am okay.

But how am I supposed to feel okay if he is here?

The male lead is taking care of the injured villainess? Where can you read a situation like this?

I shake my head and sigh. I tried to push him away and made a lot of excuses just to drive him away, but in the end nothing works on him.

The typical Prince Fraser, who only listen to himself. How can I expect him to listen?

"Is there something wrong, you have been sighing for half an hour already."

I look at him and stop myself from giving him a face. He got the nerve to ask me such questions after what he said to me the last time we talk?

Did he had amnesia that he forgot that he accused me the last time? And now he expect me to accept all that is happening right now and forget all the things that happened to us?n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

I heave a sigh. I originally plan to ignore him all day but I didn't expect I couldn't even bear to stay with him for more than an hour.

"Your highness, may I know the reason why you are here?"

No matter how much I use my brain cells, I couldn't figure out why would he stay with me.

Everything that is happening right now doesn't make sense at all.

Prince Fraser put down the book he is reading. "You were injured because of the explosion. And as the Crown Prince of this Kingdom, its my obligation to make sure that everyone in this Kingdom is doing okay."

I would understand it if I wasn't the one he is taking care of. But out of all the people who got injured because of the explosion why did he decided to take care of me?

Me? Who is his ex fiancée. The fiancée he wants to get rid of from his life.

I heave a sigh and shake my head. My head is already hurting from thinking, it's better to be straightforward with this guy.

I snort and stare at him. Who cares about respect? If I continue treating him like a Prince, I know I wouldn't get the answer I want.

"Your highness, apologies for what will I say, but can you please stop this nonsense. Both of us know that you hate me. So, why do you need to pretend you aren't?"

I heave a sigh and stare at him. Prince Fraser stare back at me.

He looks conflicted and I don't understand why. I'm the one who is supposed to be conflicted here.

After a few seconds, he shakes his head and walk towards my bed. As much as I want to get away from him, I couldn't do a thing because I broke my rib because of the explosion. That leaves me trapped in ny bed

So, I don't have a choice but to just stare at his every move. Hoping he wouldn't do anything to me.

With his temper? I'm afraid I'll end up infuriating this Prince and hurt myself in the process. Prince Fraser sit on the bed beside me. He then gently hold my hand that is resting on my side. I tried taking my hand away from him but he would let it go.

"You probably won't believe what I will say. But when I heard what happened in the Foundation, I got scared." I feel his hold on my hand tightens. "I... I was scared of losing you, Csille."

He only mumbled the last words he said but it is already enough for my ears to catch it. What did he said? He was scared of losing me? Is this a joke? Some sort of April fools prank? I look at the calendar on my bedside table and frown when I realized that April has passed already. Also, I'm not even sure if April first pranks is a thing here.

But if this isn't a prank, what is this? Why does this Crown Prince is saying those words to Csille?

As far as I know, I was the one who got injured in the explosion but why does it looks like he was the one suffering from brain injury?

I look at Prince Fraser and laugh sarcastically. I also try the hardest to pull my hand from his grip.

"Prince Fraser, what are you doing? What do you want from me? Isn't it still not enough for you to see me hurting? That's why here you are pretending to care about me? For what? To have my hopes high just so you could crush it again? Just leave. I don't need your pretence."

I was expecting he would be mad at my words but he just stare at me and sigh. "I know I have hurt you in the past and I understand if you don't want me here. However, I apologize if I wouldn't be able to do what you want me to do."

He stop talking for a moment and just stare at me intently. It's too intense that I am not even sure what does the stare means.

"I know it's difficult for you to believe my words after all I have done to you in the past. But believe me when I say that even I don't know why I am like this. I care about you, Csille. That is true. However, I don't understand why sometimes I just don't want so see you."

Prince Fraser lets out a couple of curses before he pulls his own hair using his two hand. He looks so frustrated right now. It's even the first time I heard him curse like that.

"This is frustrating." He turn his head to me. "Csille, this might sound like I am only making excuses here but I really cares about you. More than you ever know and more than how I show. In fact when I heard what happened to you, I immediately rushed to the Foundation to see you. And do you know how anxious I was when I see you collapsed? I almost had a heart attack when I saw that."

I stare at him dumbfoundedly. I didn't expect he would say those words to me. To the Villainess?

After all, he was mad at me the last time we talk. So, I don't understand what could've happened to make him say this things.

My eyes widen when I realized something. This must probably the doings of that unknown force. That force which is trying to change the course of the storyline.

I look at Prince Fraser who is still staring at me. Everything he said just now are not true. He only said that because he was influenced by that force but the truth is he never cares about me. And that will never change.

I shake my head. "Fraser, you don't know what you are saying. Everything you said just now, are not true. Yo-"

I wasn't able to finish what I want to say because he interrupts me. "That is not true!" Prince Fraser grabs my hand and hold it tight. "Csille, I truly care about you. I wouldn't be here if I'm not. So, please believe-"

I scoff and pull my hand from him. "Stop! Please stop, your highness." I shake my head. "You keep saying you care about me yet here you are insisting to stay by my side even if I already told you to leave."

I raise my head and smile sadly. "If you really care about me, you wouldn't stay here after I told you to leave. If you really care about me you would know that seeing you here will only hurt me. Fraser, what do you want from me? You already broke our engagement. You already ruined my future. Isn't that enough for you? Or do you really want to see me suffer all my

life?"

I see Prince Fraser's eyes dilated. He then shakes his head. He tried to touch my hand but I immediately slap his hand away. "Csille-"

Tears starts to roll down my cheeks. I don't know if it's because the real Csille is hurting or because I AM the one hurting.

Nevertheless, I need to make sure to make things right. Prince Fraser shouldn't quiver. His love and attention should only belong to Princess Paislee and no one else.

"Your highness, what did I do to deserve all of this? Is it a grave crime to love you?" A sob escape from my mouth. "All I ever did is love you but why do you need to hurt me like this? TELL ME? WHAT DID I DO WRONG?!"

I know it's a crime to shout at any royalty but I need to drive him away. He isn't supposed to be here in the first place.

Prince Fraser raise his hand but it stop mid air. "Csille, that is not what I want. I wan-"

"You want? What about what I want? When will you consider what I want? What ab-"

I wasn't able to finish my words when the door of my room burst open. "My dear, what is happening? We heard you shouting? Is there any prob..." Mother's words got stuck on her mouth when she see me crying. She immediately rush to my

side. "My dear, why are you crying? Are you hurting? Should I call a Doctor?" She then look at Father who is still standing on the doorway. "Waltier, what are you standing there? Call Pascal immediately. Our daug-"

I hold Mother's hand and shake my head. "Mother, I am fine. I am not in pain. However, can you please tell his highness that I need to rest on my own? I don't feel comfortable around

him."

If I couldn't drive him away on my own, I will just let my parents do that for me.

I know my Mother. She wouldn't let me get hurt even if it means driving the Crown Prince

away.

Mother glance at Prince Fraser before she turn her head at Father. Father stares back at Mother and heave a sigh. He knows he couldn't win against Mother.

"Your highness, apologies but my daughter needs to rest. Can you-" Father words stops when Prince Fraser suddenly stand up. He looks at me for a couple of

seconds before he glances at my parents. "Thank you for having me here, Count and Countess. Now that I have made sure that Dame Csille is already okay, I think it's best for me to leave already. I still have other things to do because of the explosion. So, if you excuse me." Mother and Father glances at each other before they send Prince Fraser to his carriage. While I just stare at them. Dumbfounded with what just happened.

Prince Fraser left just like that? He didn't even got mad when Father ask him to leave. He also made it look like he was leaving because he still have work to do.

Why? Why are you doing this, Prince Fraser?

I shake my head and calm my heart. "No, Csille. Don't put meaning on what happened. You already know what the future holds. If you continue to dwell on your own fantasy, you'll end

up losing your own future. Do you want that?"

I heave a sigh and look outside my window.

And there is more important thing we need to take care of. I need to talk to that Mister Sewell.

I need to ask him as to why he didn't inform me about the explosion.

If he thinks I would let him after what he did, he was wrong. I almost lost my life because of

that explosion and I...

My eyes widen when I remember something important. Lilla! I need to know what happened

to Lilla!

How can I forget about her?!
