I Reincarnated as a Bad Girl

Chapter 3: Denis' Birthday Party

Previous Story:

Teacher Wilson called Eva into his room. It turned out that the teacher was a dark elf disguised as a human. And unexpectedly, he was also the teacher of the elf boy he had helped.

Then as Eva heads to the library to finish her homework, she meets Denis unexpectedly. Denis gave her an invitation to her sixteenth birthday party. At this party the announcement of their engagement will be made officially.

***

I lay myself on the bed. Then raised the invitation letter up while looking at him.

This invitation letter might be a happy party invitation for Eva who used to be because she was engaged to her loved ones. But for those who already knew some events, this was the most critical point of events.

At this tea party Eva would embarrass herself for yelling at Reina as well as Denis' cold attitude towards her. All the nobles at the party witnessed all of that. Since then she has been dubbed the "bad girl" and also the "unwanted betrothed"

'Hmm..how did it happen...'

The party went well at first. Eva attended the party with her father and mother and saluted the king. All the nobles were staring at them. They become the center of attention.

Then Denis came and the center of attention was turned to the crown prince. Denis saluted the king as well as the duke. Their engagement relationship was announced. Eva's face was radiant. He's really happy. But Denis's countenance was very flat and he looked at the gleeful girl next to him with a cold look.

Eva approached Denis in high spirits and asked him to dance. Although Denis did not want to, he could not embarrass his father's name in front of the crowd with disrespect. So she had to dance with Eva. When they danced, Denis never looked at Eva. His eyes searched around the party hall. And finally it was fixed on one girl standing in the corner of the room.

The moment he saw the girl, his heart instantly beat fast. She ends her dance with Eva and goes to the girl who makes her curiosity even more passionate.

Eva who was left behind became very dazed. He knew that Denis must have been busy welcoming the other nobles. That's why he left her.

But that certainly isn't! Eva saw! He saw Denis and the lowly noble girl among the crowd.

"The girl must have seduced him" Eva thought.

"Where did they go?"

Eva followed him and found the two men walking towards the side courtyard of the palace. Eva approached, trying as close as she could to hear what they were talking about.

The girl's voice was very soft. And the sentence was full of thanks and also compliments for Denis. Then Denis also replied to her softly and softly to the girl! And Denis is smiling! Denis had never shown her any smile!

'How can this happen! Denis always treated him coldly. But while with the girl, he treated her gently. Wh why? why?' Eva was frustrated.

'I'm sure the girl teased him! Denis would never be interested in such a girl!'

Strengthening her determination, Eva decided to teach the girl a lesson.

Uh! Eva almost shouted, but she immediately covered her mouth quickly. What's he looking at? She saw Reina kissing Denis cheek with a flushed face of embarrassment! That fucking girl! He had never even touched his fiancee! But the girl was brave....

After that, they danced. The look of them both is stunning. A beautiful girl and a handsome man who danced harmoniously. Their eyes looked at each other and both of them smiled softly.

Eva looked at all these events. His heart throbbed painfully. So hurt. Why didn't Denis ever treat her like that? Even from the first time they met, Denis had already treated him coldly.

Eva doesn't want to see any of this again. In his heart he knew that the two people were in love with each other. But his heart still denied it. He tried to deny all reality and forced his will to be with Denis.

'I'm sure Denis will accept me. I'm his fiancee. I'm sure time can change that' Eva thinks optimistically.

As the party was about to end, Eva saw the two men return. Indiscriminately, he immediately approached Reina. Pushed it and splashed it with tea in the middle of the hall. Everyone became noisy because of that incident. Eva yells and berates Reina as the girl****** who snatched someone else's partner.

Of course, the hero came. Denis came and slapped Eva in the face. Everything became more complicated because of that incident. Denis scolds Eva and says that she is an evil-mouthed girl. Insulting a good girl like Reina, even hurting her. She also said that Eva did not deserve to be her fiance. Such a girl could only be trash!

Hearing all Denis said, everyone in the hall immediately looked at the disgusting Eva. But Eva doesn't care. Eva also has a protector, her father. He cried in front of his father, and the duke instantly gave off a killing aura. The Duke stared intently at the King who was in front of him. Since then, the relationship between the Duke and King has been bad. The king does not want all of these events to go too far and cause unexpected incidents, so he forces Denis to apologize to Eva. Denis would not. But when he saw his father's pleading eyes, Denis did so with a heavy heart while trying to contain his anger. Because Denis apologized, Eva's confidence returned. He started chasing the man again.

Although her father had persuaded her to surrender and call off the engagement, Eva did not care about it. Duke already hates Denis so much, he's sure the man isn't a good man for his daughter. She will definitely make her daughter's life suffer when they get married. But his daughter remained adamant about his choice, so Duke Court could only resign.

"Damn it!" I immediately snatched away while squeezing the invitation letter out loud.

After recalling the incident, my mood was not good. I'm really mad. I've experienced it over and over again because of the dream cycle, which is why I remember what happened to me. Eva's life in the past.

I'm so mad at that stupid Eva! He's totally blind because of the man!

I was also very red on Denis who treated Eva badly from the beginning of their meeting!

I was also angry at Reina who was pretending to be an innocent girl, but she approached the man who already had a fiancee! Well, that's his character. He approaches all the men and all the men fall in love with him, not just Denis. The story is set like that.

"I definitely won't let that happen again. I will be a wise girl even if the two men show their closeness to me. I won't embarrass my father either. Definitely not going!" I steeled my resolve while squeezing the invitation even harder.

When the invitation paper was destroyed by my grasp, I immediately threw it into the trash.

I'll be looking forward to it, that birthday party...

***

The birthday party begins. I was getting ready to leave in a horse-drawn carriage. Inside the carriage, the two people I loved were waiting inside.

"I miss mama~ so much" I said spoiled as I hugged my mother's neck. "How are you doing ma? Is your body okay? That baby didn't hurt you, did he?" I said worried when I saw my mother's slightly pale face.

"Don't talk like that. Babies can't hurt other people, they're innocent." Diana said. "How are you, baby? Is the academy fun?~" asked Diana softly.

"Everything's normal" I said flatly. "Their lessons are even easier than the masters teach" I complained.

"Don't like that dear~"

"Hmm.." I buried my head in my mother's arms. After a few minutes I took it off and hugged Duke Court's neck.

"I miss you too pa~" I said spoiled.

"Good learning is okay" Duke's eyes were very gentle. She stroked her daughter's hair lovingly.

"Hm" I nodded confidently. "Dad should also take good care of mom when I'm not there okay" I said as I glanced at Diana. His condition is not good, I am very worried. Everyone knew that Diana had a weak body. I'm afraid something goes wrong that isn't lightened.

Looking at his daughter's anxious face, Duke smiled and pinched the little girl's nose. "Don't worry. You know your father is great, right. Don't underestimate me, I will definitely protect Diana"

"Of course, papa is great~"

THE CUP! I kissed her cheek.

We, a family of three, no, soon four, were talking happily in the car. The train continued to run towards the palace.

***

I finally saw this place again.

Although the king and queen were quite friendly, Denis was not at all. He spent more time with the man than he did with the king and queen, so his feelings were really not good.

Our family walked to the palace hall. As we entered, the guards greeted us and all the guests immediately retreated and lined up neatly. The guests saluted by lowering their heads, so that we and our family could pass through the crowd smoothly.

I saw in front of the throne there was a king and a queen. Then beside them were the concubines, the crown prince and the prince.

We headed towards them and paid our respects. "Good night, your honor"

"Thank you for inviting us" Duke Court said kindly.

Eh? It turns out that this stupid father can also be friendly and not rebellious huh?

The king smiled kindly. "Come brother. Don't be so formal with me."

The king then looked at all the guests. "Alright, now I will announce it. Today the crown princess is already sixteen years old. He has reached the age where he is getting married. So I'm officially announcing my son Denis' engagement to Duke Court's daughter Eva.

The guests were a little noisy. But that's not too much, because most of them already know this news.

"Alright because the main guest has come, you can enjoy this party" said the king.

The guests began to scatter and mingle again. Some of them formed small groups and some came to my father, to make political connections. In an instant I saw the old men crowding us.

I am worried about my mother who is not in good health. But I calmed down when I saw the queen pulling her and separating her from the crowd. Then the two women gossiped. The curious concubine in the corner also emboldened herself to enter into the conversation. Seeing them caressing my mom's stomach, I'm sure they must be talking about babies.

"Eh?" I was shocked when I felt my arm being pulled. When I looked, it was Denis!

The man pulled me and led me to the center of the hall, away from the crowd of old men who were approaching my father.

"You okay?" she asked.

"I'm fine. I won't get hurt just because of being bullied by an old man" I said directly.

Denis smiles.

Eh? I'm a little surprised.

Lately I've been seeing Denis smiling at me. He didn't use that sharp look anymore to look at me.

The storyline has changed. Denis has treated me better. I hope that bad things in the future or the present will not happen.

Denis suddenly knelt down and it surprised me. "Will you dance with me?" he said gently while holding my hand and kissing her.

DEG! My body immediately shook. I shuddered a bit in horror when needed with a romantic like this. But I guess this is a good start, right.

"Of course, your honor" I said, saluting.

Denis pulled me and held my ping. In an instant, we danced in the middle of the hall and attracted everyone's attention.

The Duke who was busy talking turned his attention to us. So did the king. And so did my mother and the queen who were engrossed in gossip.

Just because we were dancing, we were both the center of attention.

"Don't be nervous" Denis whispered as he brought his lips closer to my earlobe.

Which makes me more nervous.

"I'm not nervous"

"You danced well" Denis praised. "I didn't expect a rebellious girl like you to be this kind of nice. Looking at you like this, I think you're a sweet and pretty girl" she said with a breath blowing down my neck.

DEG! DEG! DEG! My heart beats erratically.

Uhh!! Don't be like Eva! You're really tempted by what he said! You have to hold yourself back!

I tried to restrain myself, even though my face was red from embarrassment.

Seeing the girl in front of him bowing his head timidly, Denis grew even more delighted. This girl was tempted by me! I still have a chance, don't I?

"I'm sorry too" Denis said directly.

"Eh?"

"I'm sorry for yelling at you that time. I'll give you a gift of apology" he said disappointedly. "Are you going to forgive me?"

"I'll forgive you." I said softly with a face that was already flushed like in a sauna!

"What's? I didn't hear you?" denis said in a naughty tone.

"I'm sorry!" I said grumbling while stepping on his feet.

Denis was not angry. He just smiled and continued to tease the little girl.

Finally, their dance is over. Everyone in the room applauded.

"Eva.." Denis had not yet finished his words, another voice appeared.

"Excuse me, your majesty." said the nervous voice.

I saw the main character's girl, Reina was staring at Denis.

Denis frowned unhappily as his words were cut. But he immediately changed his expression as usual. "What's wrong?"

"There's something I want to talk to your majesty about.it's very important." he said.

"Is it more important than my business in this palace?" ask Denis sneering.

"It's about that noble one." Reina said indistinctly.

But I saw Denis flinch a little. What does "that" mean to make Denis react that way? What's something important?

Denis was silent for a moment, then looked at Eva. "I'll be gone for a minute. Wait for me okay" he said before leaving with Reina to leave the main hall.

Hmh! He left me and followed the main character! I don't know why I feel so unhappy when they walk side by side.
