The Villainess Does It With Class

Chapter 18 - Fueled With Rage

Sensing the discomfort of those three stooges, Ezekiel cleared his throat and speak on behalf of them.

"It's about Nadia."

Nathaniel seemed alert all of a sudden. His back arching off the chair and leaned forward, eyes narrowing at him.

"What's with her?"

He was looking so serious that everyone in the room tensed up. They know about Nathaniel's attitude, have seen what he's capable of, knowing about the incident might trigger him, and do something in retaliation.

More so, the fact he's being such a doting brother as of lately, he might just do that.

The four of them remained silent which made Nathan frown. .

"What? You aren't going to talk?" His eyes then landed on the most talkative in the room, "Eon."

Eon flinched and looked at Conrad who averted his eyes, then to the smiling Prince who doesn't look ruffled and sat there smiling, and to Luther who was acting like the frills on the pillows looked suddenly interesting.

"W-well..." He muttered. He saw Nathan looking at him expectantly so he started to sweat cold bullets. "You see... Nadia in the cafeteria..."

Those pale red eyes lingered, getting more and more focused on him. Like a predator patiently waiting for the kill. A red-eyed predator.

Eon felt like crying due to the pressure and began gazing at the prince with pleading eyes.

'I don't want to die yet! Save me!'

Ezekiel saw him looking pathetic and took pity on him.

"Apparently, something happened in the cafeteria and Nadia was involved in it." He declared.

Nathan's eyes shifted to him, "And?"

The council room got silent again which infuriated Nathan.

"Just tell me already!"

He was getting so annoyed by all the beating around the bush thing.

'They just have to say it to me directly, what's with these looks?'

"Well, she was bullied." He flatly says.

A hush fell inside the room and it was beginning to feel cold. Eon and the others shivered as they feel the chill permeating through their clothes. They were also afraid to look at Nathan's expression and were pretty sure it was scary as hell.

'I pity those girls who would feel Nathan's wrath' Conrad mused.

'I would seriously pray for their souls' Luther swore wholeheartedly.

'Is my sister involved as well? She's a troublemaker maybe she joined the fray. Wait, my sister wasn't around what the hell I'm being so worried about then" Eon rambles. Even in his thoughts, he still says nonsense things.

The three were all thinking like these while Nathan, on the other hand, looked like a slab of hard granite.

Ezekiel saw his anger and felt the cold winter pervading.

'Hmmm. Really strange... They are both strange...'

"She handled it fine though," Conrad murmured at the side after a moment.

Nathan's eyes instantly locked on him and he gulped upon seeing the frost in there and averted his eyes.

'I shouldn't have talked.'
