I Don’t Want the Obsession of a Twisted Archduke - Chapter 2

Chapter 2

‘What the hell is this?’

Upon hearing this, I stared at her. Maybe it was because of my smile, but Wendy hurriedly opened her mouth.

“Miss, you really can’t do that this time! You’re not allowed to go out until you agree to marry the archduke.”

‘Huh? I thought I was on holiday in this villa, I was actually being held in custody?’

Suddenly I felt an unidentifiable sense of Déjà vu. It was really weird… I really think I’ve already seen this situation somewhere before.

‘But where have I seen this?’

It seemed like these thoughts were the trigger. I felt dizzy from the sudden wave of memories that hit me like a flashlight, it felt like constant explosions booming in my head.

‘Oh my God!’

I realized that I entered the body of a character in a novel I wrote as a child, she was the most unfortunate character in the novel!

Riddel Spencer. She was the second daughter of the Spencer family, an unwelcome daughter because she was an illegitimate child.

[“What can you do anyways? You useless little bitch! You’re a disgrace to the family!”]

Riddel was self-taught because she didn’t receive a proper education. Due to this, she was constantly beaten for failing to live up to their expectations, it was apparent that she was a gloomy child because of this.

Both her stepmother and half-sister despised Riddel. She was an illegitimate child that they hated. This was why it was so natural for her maids to be extremely rude to her. In fact, she was even forced to get married!

[“Marry the archduke of Romani”]

Her father, who was the emperor’s dog, forced her marriage without even asking her opinion. She was forced to marry the cursed archduke, who had no blood or tears, just to fulfill the imperial’s order.

Then, for the first time in her life, Riddel opposed her father.

[“Father, I don’t want to marry that person.”]

It wasn’t because she was afraid of the archduke. But because she already had a fiance.

[“Shut up! How dare a bug like you oppose me?”]

Her father didn’t want to listen and became angry at her. He even used violence and locked her in this villa.

‘After all that happened, I entered this body.’

I suddenly became dizzy… this was because Riddel’s misfortune didn’t just end here. Throughout her marriage, she developed a bad relationship with the archduke. When she finally returned back to her fiance, he robbed her of her money.

Even her death was terrible. She was framed for helping the main characters and she was decapitated with a guillotine.

Thankfully, I know a way to avoid her death. But besides this, I didn’t really want to live in this novel. The thought of me being dead in reality didn’t really cross my mind. If possible, I truly wanted to go back right now. I missed my family and friends.

‘Is there a way I can go back?’

After three days of pondering my next course of actions, I finally decided on something and called Wendy.

“Wendy, send a letter to my father. Tell him that I’m going to get married.”

After a day the letter was sent, a carriage quickly came to pick me up, as if it had been waiting all this time.

I made a vow to myself, as long as I lived in this body, I would detest everyone who treats me rudely.

****

“You’re really stubborn. After you get sent there, you’ll come back after a year anyways.”

It was breakfast time when I arrived at the manor, this was the first thing I heard from my father, I was quite astonished.

However, there was something that was more strange.

‘What’s this? What’s wrong with my food?’

On my plate, there was a soup that looked quite weird alongside a crumbly bread that seemed like leftovers.

As I compared my meal to the other dishes that were served on the table. I noticed that they had a steaming soup that looked delicious, soft scrumptuous bread, and fresh vegetables.

I really couldn’t believe that they were openly discriminating against me even though we were eating at the same place and time.

‘Of all things, why are the maids and my family messing with my meals?’

While grumbling in my mind, I felt quite sorry for Riddell Spencer. I wondered if she had been treated like this all this time.

While I stared blankly at Wendy, who was beside me. She broke out in a cold sweat when our eyes met. She seemed to have understood what my stare implied, she knew why my meal was prepared seperately.

Only

When I saw Wendy nod, I put the bowl aside.

Then, the people that used to treat me like air, who didn’t even care whether I ate or not, began to talk.

“Riddell, are you aware that the news regarding you being locked up in the villa has reached the Archduke? Do you know how disgraceful that is?” It was clear he was placing the blame on me.

“Don’t be angry, Spencer. This kid doesn’t know anything,” Riddell’s stepmother provokingly answered.

“That’s right, Dad. Don’t be angry that she’s been doing something stupid for a while now.”

Followed after her was Riddell’s step-sister, Vestia Spencer’s words made me speechless.

‘Does Vestia even deserve to say something like this to me?’

Vestia would often act like she was the smartest person, it seemed that the past me would also occasionally do stupid things that would allow her to behave like that.
