[Part 2] Death Is The Only Ending For The Villain (FOR OFFLINE READING PURPOSE)

167

I was so used to this family that I didn't even think about it. 'Then what about Penelope if I escape?'
No matter how magical the game is, the dead never lived.
It's only a family affair, but I found it hard to shake off the creeps that ran down the back of my neck. 'What's the game story? Can the FL target ML without Penelope?'

My brain didn't work well. The most important thing here was my escape. 'What about me? Can I really get out of this game?'

I felt like I was in a labyrinth without an exit.

My breath became heavy. The Duke looked surprised at me panting shallowly. "It's a slip of the tongue, forget it."

However, the heart that raged wildly did not calm down. Looking at me getting pale, the Duke asked urgently. "Penelope, are you sick? Should I call a doctor?"

"No. No, Father"

I shook my head with difficulty. And she opened her mouth, trying to hold her breath and force her heart to calm down as usual.

"I'm a little surprised that my father knew."

The Duke accepted my excuse with a firm countenance. He squirted his lips with difficulty. "Penelope, I"

"…"

"I'm such an immature and ugly father that I still don't know how to treat with you." I looked at him in silence for the first time, holding my breath.

"I thought it would be all right if I gave all the things you asked for, and let your anger out every time you didn't care about me the way you used to be."

"…."

"I thought that would work."

That's not it, now he knew it now. It was a sad realization.

Finally, he stared at me without an answer, and he opened his mouth. "Eclise, is he that good?"

I caught my eyes at the sudden noise. "What are you"

"You're the child who had an open mind." ""

"But he brought YvonneI was afraid you'd get hurt. That's why I didn't let you meet him."

"…"

"But if you really want it….. I'll bring him back to your escort when the ceremony is over. So… eat your food in time."

I looked at the Duke with gloomy eyes.

The word should have been said three days ago.

No, in fact, if I had been allowed to meet Eclise then, nothing would have changed. Since the color of the gauge bar was dark red, I've already failed to Eclise's route. "It's not like that, Father."

I shook my head slowly.

"I was so surprised that day. He's just a benefactor who helped in an emergency, and he's not more meaningful person."

"I know you don't mean it."

I was sincere now, but I wonder if it was because I really wanted Eclise. The Duke did not readily believe it.

"Then Yvonne."

I asked back in a dreary voice. "She said she wanted Eclise."

The Duke looked embarrassed at my words, and soon answered calmly.

"She have to live in the same house for the time being, and as you say, you have to keep the good between sisters."

"I didn't know the fact that I and she are sisters had already been decided." "Penelope."
