2030-chapter-4
Rosa, enduring the pain, lies on the bed and focuses on recalling the development of the manga.
It all started when Rosa forcefully invited Alex to the theater.
Alex, the third prince, unable to refuse the persistent invitation of Rosa, the daughter of a powerful figure with political influence, reluctantly agrees to go to the theater.
The incident occurred on their way back. A horse tied to the royal carriage suddenly goes wild, kicking Rosa and causing her to faint.
After regaining consciousness, Rosa seizes the opportunity to summon Alex every day, complaining of pain and using the power of her family to press him to take responsibility.
Unable to strongly refuse due to his position as a prince, Alex eventually becomes engaged to Rosa. As the third prince, Alex lacks strong support, making him vulnerable.
At the urging of his birth mother, he ends up engaged to Rosa.
Following the plot of the manga, Rosa becomes increasingly arrogant as the fiancee of the third prince, harboring resentment in various ways.
She attends tea parties and evening gatherings with her entourage, acting as if she were already the princess.
Eventually deemed unsuitable for the crown princess, she is poisoned by someone six months before the wedding.
However, the current Rosa doesn’t remember anything about the culprit in the manga. It’s uncertain whether it was even written or not.
Rosa reminisces about social events in this life, always at the center of attention. Among the noble girls in her entourage, she is closest to Ella, Poppy, and Lila, who always agree with everything she says.
When displeased, Rosa quickly scolds, especially being harsh towards beautiful and cute girls.
“How narrow-minded…”
While Rosa reflects and frets, Helena, who has returned to the room unnoticed, looks at her with an exasperated gaze.
“Miss, you’ve been talking to yourself a lot lately. You never know who might be listening. Please be careful.”
“Yes, you’re right. A noble lady must not show weakness.”
Rosa nods in agreement with Helena’s words.
Lately, she has been receiving pitying glances from Helena.
Previously, there was always tension between the straightforward Helena and Rosa.
Now, that tension has completely dissipated.
However, remembering her past life, Rosa realizes that Helena, whom she once thought unattractive, is a typical capable woman.
She is undoubtedly a professional maid. In a different world, she might have climbed the social ladder.
Born into a class-based society, it’s truly pitiful.
Afterward, the tired Rosa falls into a deep sleep. Her resilience in nerve-wracking situations is characteristic of Rosa. She feels like her nerves were more delicate in her past life.
—
At the usual time, Ethan arrives.
Rosa tightens her resolve to speak as little as possible, avoiding unnecessary words.
(Isn’t it scary to be killed by an excellent healer? They leave no evidence, right?)
Internally, Rosa trembles with fear toward Ethan, who should have been her “favorite” in her past life.
If Rosa doesn’t speak, he won’t either. Therefore, during the treatment, a painful silence and an odd tension fill the room.
Around the end of the ordeal-like treatment, a knock on the door echoes.
The butler of the marquisate, Lombard, enters.
“Miss, His Highness is here.”
“Huh?”
She hadn’t expected him to come without being called.
But, logically, he might come to visit.
Or did her overly fond father pressure Alex to visit?
“Um, well, I’m not in a condition to meet him yet, so could you tell Father and decline on my behalf?”
Looking at Ethan, Rosa says
“Well, you see, about that…”
The door opens with a loud bang.
There stands Alex, looking solemn.
(Hold on, wait a minute.)
T/N:SORRYYYYY… i’ve mistakenly translate the scumbag prince name into Alec in the first chapter…so from now on,i will translate it as Alex…
