For the rest of the morning, Adelliana had fun time receiving the attention from the household. Everywhere she goes, Adelliana would receive smile, blush and giggles.

Even if she's the child of the Villainess, no one can have the heart to hate this cute (?) baby. While Aphrodite was talking with the butler and the head maid, Adelliana was practising how to stand with the help of Margaret.

Her two small legs were trembling but Margaret was always there to help her. Adelliana successfully broke her record and stood for 2 minutes.

Her energy now has drained away.

"My my, Lady Adelliana is really strong! You must be hungry now, why don't you rest first?" Margaret picked Adelliana up and feed her the milk.

Adelliana furiously suck out the milk in starvation. Why does standing drains alot of energy T_T?

It was already noon when the house was finally spotless. Adelliana was left alone in a big room. Margaret was called to help in the kitchen while Aphrodite was in the garden, checking the works.

Feeling bored, Adelliana took the opportunity to crawl around the mansion.

Since they've left the door opened, Adelliana crawled towards the opened door in a slow pace. She crawled to the hall, the room that has door opened and finally arrived at the front door that was opened hugely as if to welcome someone.

The servants and maids there flinched in surprise upon seeing the unexpected arrival of Adelliana. They all exchanged gazes and finally one maid approached her.

"Young lady, what are you doing here? This isn't a good place to play, the Archduke could arrive in any time now."

Adelliana groaned. So what's wrong with that? Any dads would be happy to see their cute daughter waited for their arrival. But she can't guarantee Ares would feel the same way as any other dad.

The young maid picked her up and went outside. She went to the front garden where Aphrodite diligently pointed the spot that need to be fixed.

To everyone that was reading the novel, they all hated her and threw mean comments and sarcasm towards her. But if they are here to witness how Aphrodite really worked, they would swallowed back all their words instantly with tears.

A duchess who is lazy and only know how to waste the duke's money image is destroyed. Adelliana was convinced that Aphrodite was the best wife material ever.

Why would they want a clumsy and cute female lead who is an idiot that doesn't know how to manage a household and leave everything to her husband?

As a hardcore novel fan like Adelliana, she has to admit she would choose someone like Aphrodite over someone who is cute and clumsy. Jesus...who the hell would have time to clean up the mess that the cute girl create?

She respected those simps.

"Your excellency, Lady Adelliana was found crawling to the front door so we might thought that she missed you..."

The way the maid spoke made Adelliana realised how scary Aphrodite can be with her workers...well, she is a Villainess.

The two faced Villainess who apparently destroyed her image by marrying the duke who doesn't love her. Every actions have consequences so think twice before you decide to do it.

For a moment, Adelliana thought she was an intelligent second male lead from Chinese novel.

Aphrodite's eyes lit with happiness. She cleared her throat to avoid awkwardness then took Adelliana from the maid's hand.

One hand with parasol and one hand, holding Adelliana. Aphrodite lovingly gave kisses to Adelliana who made a sour face.

She's happy with the attention but now she's embarrassed with all the stares from the workers!! =///=

Adelliana gave up resisting and rest in Aphrodite's arm. She watched how Aphrodite commands the gardener and the servant.

"That place isn't clean yet, clean it. The leaves under the tree, make sure to gather them up and burn them. The grass over there haven't perfectly been cut yet, trim them."

Umm...quite strict but the wife material is real here people...

While watching the workers peacefully, Margaret came out of nowhere and ran to them with sweat all over her.

"Duchess, his excellency...his excellency is back..."

After hearing the news, Aphrodite nodded her head and ran to the mansion with Adelliana who's unconsciously gripped her mother dress.

[ Male protagonist is here...my FATHER!!!! HOLY HELL!!! ]

Adelliana was excited but scared at the same time. What if the male protagonist suddenly surprised her with the enemy king's head =0=?!

No no no!! Male protagonist isn't that bad...he won't throw someone's head with a carefree attitude...

---------

"Thik"

The human head with two eyes open wide was rolled to Aphrodite's feet. Adelliana didn't scream or cry, her two pink eyes were opened wide like an eggs.

Much to her fear, when the mother-daughter arrived, Ares was also there. And...just like how the novel goes, Aphrodite was asking with tons of questions like a mother like wife would.

'How was the war?'

'Would you like your meal right now?'

'Would you like to take a bath?'

In result, Ares threw the enemy king's head.

[ Dude...those questions were all from love and care!!!!! Oh my god!!!! I take back all my words that I said to Aphrodite for being annoying!!!! Holy spirit, there weren't anyone who would ask me those questions before!! ]

Adelliana was shook with the sight of the head but she won't stop dissing the male protagonist.

Adelliana could feel how trembling and scared Aphrodite was. Her petite body was trembling and she tried her best to hold her tear.

"Considering this as a warning, don't annoy me next time."

The legendary handsome male protagonist is here now.

Bathing under the light of chandelier, his sharp ruby eyes were shining brightly. His messy raven hair covered his eyebrows.

The appearance was already enough to make girls go crazy over him.

Suddenly...Adelliana was happy for no reason.

[ Hehe...does this mean I'll grow up into a beautiful girl? My dad is a hottie and my mom is a beautiful chick ]

Adelliana was happy about her appearance in the future than her life.

Aphrodite didn't respond. She looked down to the floor while Adelliana could only lift her heavy mood with a caressing on her head.

Little did she know, Ares was watching her action the whole time. He marched towards the mother-daughter pair and grab Adelliana's chin.

"Did you bring your daughter here just to catch my attention?"

[ FUCK YOU MALE LEAD!! NO!!! HOW DARE YOU GRAB MY CHIN FORCEFULLY LIKE THIS?!! ]

Adelliana was resisting his actions with all her might. Ares observed her face for a while and his hand covered in his glove moved to her small neck.

He begins to tightly gripped around her neck.

The strength from his grip was strong...even stronger than her P.E teacher from her previous life.

Adelliana slaps his arm and hand but his hand doesn't even budge.

The only choice left was to cry out loud.

"WAHHHHHHH!!!"

Since her reincarnation, Adelliana had never cried out loudly or scream. Because of her loud wailing, maids began to scream while the servants were begging the duke.

[ Is this how my life will end...? Ahh...maybe the non existent daughter from the novel die because of him too...]

Adelliana slowly closed her eyes and accepts her second death.
