Villain Princess.

Duchess Isabella frowned.

For some reasons, she felt that Aurora’s expression was a bit off.

"You..."

"Father grounded me, Mother. I’ll stay in the punishment room," Aurora cut off Duchess Isabella’s words and curtsied. "I apologize for not being able to accompany you any longer, Mother."

Duchess Isabella frowned.

At this moment, she felt as if she had lost something. Something that was intangible but indeed exist.

She felt that it was absurd.

Tossing the thoughts away from her head, Duchess Isabella turned around and left the corridors. Adela will come back from the academy soon enough and Duchess Isabella wanted to prepare something for this daughter of hers.

...

Outside

Thud!

Prince Lester held the bloodied sword in his hand and looked at the fallen man in front of him without any expression on his face.

"Kyaaa..."

The maids around tried their best to keep their distance from Prince Lester, afraid that he would swing his sword towards them. They looked at the fallen Butler Nolan on the ground and his people, feeling that this young man was crazy.

Did he not know that Butler Nolan had an important position in this mansion?

Drap! Drap! Drap!

Duke White came here with his butler and looked at Prince Lester, who was holding the sword in his hand. He felt immense headache when he saw the bloodied scene in front of him.

Thankfully, even if he lived in the relatively peaceful time with no wars, Duke White had seen deaths several times in his life.

It couldn’t be said that he wanted to see them voluntary, but it was better than nothing.

Because if he were to see this scene for the first time in his life, Duke White might not be able to stand the stimulation.

"Outrageous! Do you know what you’re doing?" The butler yelled at Prince Lester.

Prince Lester passed a glance at the butler and then at Duke White who stood beside the butler. The corner of his lips curled up in mocking smile when he saw Duke White’s pale face and trembling hands.

The young girl was able to stand firm without any fear even when her life was in danger.

But Duke White and these people here only saw a little blood and they already looked like they were about to faint.

Trashes.

They were truly not comparable to Aurora in the slightest bit.

It was quite a miracle that such a father was able to produce such an excellent child like Aurora.

"Take him down and put him in the confinement," Duke White said, his hands were trembling slightly, but he still showed a brave front.

It was just that the scene in front of him was really gory. The way these people died... he had the feeling that Prince Lester purposely targeted their stomach and emptied out their stomach content while he killed them.

Only in this way could it be possible for the scene in front of him to appear.

"Confinement?" The butler was stunned.

With what Prince Lester did, wasn’t it enough to hack him to death? After all, he dared to commit murder in a duke’s mansion.

Duke White’s face was black.

He also wanted to execute Prince Lester directly, but his daughter’s words were still in his mind. At this point of time, he really didn’t want to have a fallout with his daughter because it would only make the situation even more difficult.

Aurora was already in her rebellious period.

And the problem was, even in this rebellious period, Aurora was still very capable and it just made people have headache when facing her.

Duke White still needed Aurora.

She was far better than any of his vassals and subordinates.

As for this Butler Nolan...

"Butler Nolan committed crimes and deserved death," Duke White said slowly. "But you still shouldn’t make a move on your own even if it’s under her order."

Prince Lester didn’t answer and only looked at Duke White with the same indifferent look. There was even traces of mockery within that he didn’t bother to hide.

His sharp gaze only made Duke White narrowed his eyes.

He felt that this young man looked somewhat familiar, but he couldn’t really think where he had seen him before. Besides, with his young age, it was unlikely for Duke White to meet him in the past.

So it could only the young man’s father or even grandfather.

But Duke White was not sure.

Besides..

Seeing Prince Lester’s gaze that was even more infuriating than his daughter, Duke White was really tempted to raise his hand and ordered execution. But in the end, he didn’t do that and only waved his hand.

"Y... Yes."

The butler came forward to Prince Lester, wanting to lead Prince Lester away.

Prince Lester passed a cold glance to the butler and wiped his sword before sheathing it back. The sword was not that good since it was just the temporary sword prepared for him. But it was much better than the sword that one could buy on the street.

Prince Lester nodded at the butler and followed him away.

Duke White stood still there, feeling really insulted. In his entire life, he had only experienced such insult when he was young, especially from his own father. But after he grew up, no one dared to do such a thing anymore.

It was even more so when he became the family’s head.

Who would dare to oppose a duke?

Unless they wanted a guaranteed ticket to death, no one dared to blatantly show their hatred to Duke White.

All they wanted was to live well and try not to get involved with the duke.

But just today alone, Duke White had to face two annoying people who dared to show their indifference to him.

The problem is, can he do anything to them?

Yes, he can.

But the consequences was not something that he might be able to bear.

Duke White took a deep breath, feeling that this daughter of his was getting more and more dangerous.
