Having an Overprotective Fiancée as a Sickly Villainess-- she plans her escape! - Chapter 1 - The Villainess' Poor Health

“Why do you always act like this..!”

 

“Huh? You’re the one acting in front of me all day long..!”

 

The servants who were standing nearby were getting more uneasy looking at them arguing relentlessly.

 

However, the argument got so heated up to the point where they could not seem to stop with it.

 

There were exchanges of words and insults thrown back at each other that sounded like this, ‘You’re always like this which makes you XX¹’, or ‘You’re always acting that way because of XX’. Blood coursed through their veins to their brains because of the various anger and annoyance that they mainly felt towards each other.

 

Who would have thought that the both of them were engaged together?

 

Meaning to say, he’s so persistent with winning the argument today! Typically, they are able to stop when he yells out the word ‘That’s enough!’ and then they would steer the conversation away from the original disagreement..

 

In the meanwhile, her head was throbbing with another wave of an oncoming headache.

 

“If that were to happen again, you would not need to wait for the return of your fiancée.” Just as he turned around his heel to feign walking away, 

 

“Aaaaaah!?” 

 

A foot of hers got stuck in a root of the tree they stood nearby just a while ago which caused her to fall down with her forehead flat on the ground.

 

“Fiona?!” 

 

As she listened to her fiancé’s voice which sounded strangely anxious to her, she felt a gush of memories entering her brain through her hazy consciousness.

 

Wait, wait, wait.

 

According to these memories, she’s not Fiona Elior, the so-called villainess!

 

◇◇◇

 

Fiona Elior.

 

She is one of the villainess noble characters of the otome game, ‘Amidst the Glistening Sparkles’.

 

She appears when she tries to capture a target character, interferes with while despising the heroine, and eventually aims for her life, but when they target characters team up with the heroine standing united as one, she is exposed to all kinds of crimes and eventually dies.

 

And according to her previous life’s memories, she is that very same Fiona Elior.

 

“Are you kidding me!?”

 

She jolted upwards whilst screaming.

 

“Ah, that…?”

 

Up until now, it seems almost as if it were a fleeting dream. Apparently she had  been lying in bed after she knocked her head against the ground and lost consciousness.

 

She got up and walked unsteadily towards the full-length mirror.

 

“I-I… I,”

 

Our female lead stared at herself in front of the mirror as she shook. With her trait that she had silky long blue hair like her other family members, she has large peach blossom eyes with orbs that were of the color purple almost reminiscent of the shade violet. Long eyelashes along with a high bridged aligned nose. She’s currently 17 years old, and has the unique charm of being somewhere between a teenage girl and a young adult.

 

She is definitely a beautiful girl, but the impression she gives off seems to be somewhat cocky. And she most definitely recognized this figure.

 

Fiona Elior, who she had seen in the otome game in her last life, was definitely reflected there.

 

She screamed as her whole body trembled.

 

“Yay!”

 

Jumping for joy as she was to yell out of delight. 

 

No matter which perspective one was to look at, it’s Fiona. no doubt.

 

“With this…”

 

She can’t help but smile.

 

“I can relax in this life…!”

 

Fiona is most certainly a villainess, but she is also the daughter of a marquis and is extremely wealthy. Both her parents and her brother dote on Fiona, the only little daughter in their family.

 

With one look at this room shows you so much proof of that. A very spacious and bright room. Custom-made furniture designed for girls in mind. The room is equipped with a closet so large that it can almost be considered a separate room, filled with so many dresses and jewelry that it would be foolish to count them.

 

It’s not just about the decorations and things, but even though aristocrats often leave things to their nannies and their parents don’t get involved much when they’re young.. it was different for her. Her mother always slept with her, her father also showed up at the table as much as possible and her brother always played with her whenever he had the time.

 

There is no doubt that she is someone loved by her family. Wonderfully, loved.

 

“I can only imagine him agreeing even if I wanted to break off the engagement and live a relaxing life at home.”

 

Breaking off the engagement itself is a matter between both families, so I can’t do it on my own right now, but if things go as planned in the game, my engagement will be called off. Judging from her family’s situation, it should be possible for her to live a relaxed life after the engagement is called off.

 

And the timing of her regaining her memory was also good.

 

“I’m not a villainess yet!”

 

Yes, I haven’t met the heroine, nor have I bullied her.

 

And the main reason why Fiona stands in the way as a villainess is that she has had a bad relationship with her fiancé since childhood. They had been yelling at each other since forever as shown earlier, and of course now that I’ve regained my memories, I’m not attached to him, so if the heroine wants to get together with him, I won’t get in the way, and I’ll do my best to bless her.

 

“In other words, it should be possible to avoid condemnation…!”

 

Memories from recalling the previous life slowly flashed past her mind..

 

She managed to overcome th3 phase of being unemployed and got a job at a super big company. Unpaid overtime is usually seen commonly at places like big corporations. In fact, it’s normal to stay overnight for overtime at the company. Even so, the pay is surprisingly low. She was living her days while also suffering from mental illness, keeping a close eye on her colleagues who were also suffering from mental illness due to the difficult scope of their job.

 

Honestly,, she doesn’t really  remember much about when she was working there. All she remembered was that she managed to get to work after graduating from school.

 

She wondered if she had died from overwork.

 

She’s sure the last thing she remembers is when one of her colleagues stopped coming to work, and while she was working busily to make up for the lack of manpower, she had went back home for the first time in a while and had a mini drinking session with some beer, thinking rather positively, “I can do this!”

 

Hey, what’s the point of drinking beer? Is it to drink to your death? In that case, wouldn’t it be much more great if you were to die from overwork? If so, will the company go unharmed? That will be too frustrating! If she was going to die, she wanted to take revenge and drag the company down with her!

 

But that was all in a previous life.

 

Yes, right now I am Fiona, a super beautiful and wealthily pampered girl.

 

“In this life, I will enjoy a leisurely life full of luxury!”

 

She started dancing with joy.

 

The penance she had done so much in her previous life must have been for her present life!

 

As she was skipping along at a good tempo, she changed my mind.

 

“Ugh”

 

She cried out, kneeling down on the spot.

 

“This body is way too sickly!”

 

Her heart palpitates and her body trembles so much just after dancing a little. What a lack of physical strength! Breathing heavily, I wiped the sweat from my hand.

 

——Yes, I was born with a weak body.

 

“There was no official setting like this!”

 

She was sure because she had played the otome game many times. In the game, there is no mention that Fiona is sickly, nor is there any such setting.

 

Fiona was a villainess who simply had a bad personality and easily became moody, throwing out her anger onto others by yelling at them.

 

“Fuck!”

 

She gritted her teeth in disgust and cursed.

 

It wasn’t specifically stated in the game, but if Fiona in the game was in the same situation as me, I would understand why she became the way she was.

 

“With my poor health, I would have no choice but to rely on those around me…!”

 

Anyone who has ever felt unwell will understand this concept

 

It’s hard to act like normal when you’re not feeling well. Frustration that grows more and more inside your heart unknowingly. It’s so irrational that even the sound of people talking gives such a big headache.

 

Honestly, it was hard to even walk in the first place so before she regained her past life’s memory, she had a fight with her fiancé because he told her that she was a slow walker.

 

Can you even walk fast? In this condition!

 

Her last straw broke and her anger exploded.

 

“It’s dangerous this, dangerous that. If I listened to everyone’s advice, I would have turned into Fiona, the villainess just like in the otome game.”

 

That’s how bad she felt every day with her being so irritated.

 

However, she naturally has no intention of doing the same thing as Fiona, the original villainess. Other than condemning on other people

.

 

This life is different from her previous one, where she had lived a relaxing and leisurely life. After all, she is the daughter of a wealthy aristocratic marquis family in this lifetime.

 

Aim to win the parents’ hearts!

 

However, unless something is done about this infirmity, even a slow life is just a pipe dream.

 

She then made a prompt decision.

 

“I shall become healthy!”
