Celebrity Lady

Chapter 80

Chapter 80

A will that had been written in advance and carried everywhere, intending to die at any time once she made up her mind...

She remembered Evelyn from a previous life, who had suddenly disappeared around this time.

‘Did she commit suicide in her last life?’

It was very likely.

She left a suicide note with ‘Nora Pelkan’ written on it, hoping that Nora’s misdeeds would be known somehow after her suicide...

‘But what kind of place is Pelkan County? They must have worked hard to make sure nothing leaked out.’

I had also seen Nora Pelkan’s face often since then, and like it or not, she hadn’t even looked like she cared whether Evelyn had gone to the ground or risen to heaven.

‘Perhaps that was the reason Evelyn’s entire family suddenly went into hiding.’

I didn’t know the details, but one thing was certain. Evelyn obviously wasn’t acting like Nora Pelkan’s maid because she liked it.

She was so pessimistic at a young age that she even carried a will with her...

“Oh, this is making me crazy. I shouldn’t have sent her away.’

I had thought of doing a background check on Evelyn secretly, but now I made a mistake by letting go of a time-bomb-like child who wandered around with death in mind.

“What’s the matter?”

“Your Highness, it’s urgent. I need to see Evelyn again.”

Lark frowned at me as I jumped up.

“You just fainted and barely woke up. Tell me what’s going on. I’ll find out for you.”

“I think she’s going to die.”

“What?”

I fluttered Evelyn’s will in front of Lark.

“What—”

“I heard something strange before I was locked in the closet. Evelyn said that if she didn’t listen to Nora Pelkan, her whole family would starve to death.” I hurriedly found my coat and put it on and continued, “Is Torso Barony in such a bad situation?”Fịndd new updates at novelhall.com sorry I can’t help. There are a few families in the capital, and I don’t know the details of them. I also saw that girl named Evelyn for the first time today.”

“Ah, I see.”

“I can find out right away instead.”

“Thank you for that. But I think we need to find Evelyn first. You never know when she’s going to have a bad thought. She must have struggled today—Oops!”

When I tried to leave the room in a hurry, I tripped, Lark came close to me and caught me.

“Thank you.”

“It won’t be difficult to find her. It hasn’t been long since she left, we should be able to catch up quickly.”

“That kid rode the twins’ carriage—”

“That doesn’t matter. Landian,” Lark quietly called the name of his spirit. I couldn’t see it, but he seemed to have summoned the spirit.

“As long as their feet is on the ground, it’s not difficult to find out their location.”

“Oh, that’s a relief.”

“Let’s go.” Lark, who knew my impatience, moved first without asking further.

***

Rattle, rattle.

The carriage slowly moved along the gentle, snow-covered mountain road.

Evelyn stared blankly at the scene of Lubon seen through the window.

Unlike the peaceful scenery with white snow on each roof, the foot of the mountain was high enough that you could fall with just one misstep.

‘I don’t think it would be bad to die here.’

As she was thinking, she heard the twins’ chatter in her ears.

‘Should I write that I’m sorry I locked her in the closet?’

Evelyn fumbled through the front and sleeves of her dress to find the suicide note she always carried with her.

“Oh, my God.”

But she had no idea where she had lost it. She had Nora Pelkan’s name written on it openly.

“...”

But the bewilderment was short-lived. She thought it didn’t matter.

Shrak.

As she took a step on the snow field, a footprint appeared.

Lubon Mountain, where the villa was located, had a steep slope, so the passage was lowered as gently as possible, and iron fences were erected on the cliff side.

The barbed wire fence was quite solid and dense, but it wouldn’t be difficult to squeeze under it and fall if you put your mind to it.

“Hehe, the scenery is nice.”

Evelyn bent down and moved over the barbed wire fence, looked down at the scenery she faced again, and murmured.

“Dad...”

Tears welled up in her eyes as she opened her mouth and said, “Dad.”

“I’m sorry. I’m so sorry.”

If she were going to die like this, she should’ve spat at the bad guys who cursed her dad.

Yes, she should have.

With brief remorse, Evelyn opened her eyes. Her pupils, having lost their light, were empty.

***

“How can children be so vicious?” Lark, who heard everything in the carriage that went out to find Evelyn, said. “I was really innocent and nice at that age...”

How could a 15-year-old be so bullied that she even decided to commit suicide? Lark was angry. He couldn’t believe it.

“Kids are scary these days.”

“Yeah, I get it now. They even lock someone in the closet as a joke.”

I licked my dry lips as I smiled. Because it was snowy, the carriage’s speed was slow, so I was nervous.

“Don’t worry. Nothing will happen.”

“I hope so...”

“Ah! Stop here!”

At that moment, Lark suddenly stopped the carriage in the middle of a mountain road. It seemed that Landian had found Evelyn’s location.

‘She’s here?’

I looked out the window in amazement.

Evelyn’s back could be seen through the barbed wire fence erected along the cliff.

I covered my mouth.

“Oh, dear...”

“Princess, be careful!” Lark tried to stop me from recklessly opening the carriage door, but there was no time to delay.

I held my breath and stood upright in the snow, tense.

Evelyn’s back was precarious.

Just one step. One step forward, and her little body would plummet down the high cliff.

I managed to move my trembling legs to close the distance with Evelyn.

And I carefully called her name.

“E-Evelyn...”

Evelyn flinched, and then she slowly looked back at me.
