Villain Princess.

"I’ll try my best, Teacher," Adela said slowly.

She felt really resentful in her heart, but she couldn’t really do anything to the teacher but to follow the teaching again and again.

Adela knew very well that if she couldn’t pass the class, she would truly be the shame in her study.

"Alright, let’s repeat again." The teacher looked at Adela and repeated her lesson.

"Again!"

"Your posture is not right..."

When it was afternoon, Aurora didn’t see Adela in the Student Council room as usual and Crown Prince Edward was really distracted in his study. He didn’t want to review and brought the other three to the field to play.

Aurora shook her head and went to the library.

On the way, a teacher stopped her. "Aurora, can you come with me for a while?"

"Yes, Teacher?"

Aurora followed the teacher and found Adela was crying in the middle of the room with a book on her head. But as she tried to walk, the book would fall down and Adela failed to catch it, making an ugly posture.

The teacher sighed deeply. "It’s been hours, but she couldn’t even take one step."

Aurora: "..." not even 1 step?

This was a matter of balance and also the basic for them to learn the proper walking posture and dancing later on. Aurora had learned this ever since she could learn how to walk and thus, it had become natural.

But from the way it looked like, Adela couldn’t even take one step forward.

"S...Sister?" Adela asked, her tone sounded really weak, which could easily invoke pity from others.

Unfortunately, she was facing two people who have hardened heart.

The teacher was already used to these students who tried to cry to escape from her class. No matter what, the teacher was responsible for their result, so she had to be strict and taught them again and again.

Even if she had to put more effort, she would make sure these girls become fine ladies.

On the other hand, Aurora had no pity when she saw other people crying. She had cried a lot when she was young because of her mother’s teaching, but her mother didn’t hear any of her pleas and cries.

She still has to learn and study more, not giving her any chance to play and rest in the slightest bit.

But if Adela cried, her mother will come to Adela and coaxed her.

She could even escape from the various lessons.

And from she was young, Aurora knew very well that her parents wanted her to be the successor, so she had to learn many things. On the other hands, Adela would have her husband married into the family and become the head of the White Family, so she didn’t have to learn many things.

This was the difference.

But even if Adela was to be the wife of the next head of White Dukedom, the basic etiquette couldn’t be missing.

"Can you help her?" The Teacher asked.

She has been teaching for hours and she wanted to take a break, so she find Aurora. After all, Aurora’s result was undoubtedly the best and Adela is also Aurora’s sister.

Aurora nodded. "I’ll try to help, Teacher."

"Thank you."

As the teacher went to take a seat to eat and take a break, Aurora made her way to Adela. At this time, Adela had taken the book back and planned to put it on her head once again.

"If you only do this, you will not be able to learn," Aurora said calmly.

"What are you talking about?" Adela frowned and looked up.

Aurora was looking in Adela’s direction and said, "Straighten your back more and look forward. Don’t focus on the book on your head but to focus on your way going forward."

Hearing Aurora’s words, Adela wanted to complain that it was impossible. When the book was on her head, she always focused on it and this made her unable to complete the task of walking.

She looked at Aurora with her watery eyes, but Aurora’s eyes remained firm.

Seeing that it was unsuccessful, Adela could only pick the book with grievances and try to follow Aurora’s words.

Aurora could see that Adela was unwilling, but she didn’t care about it. The high society is a battlefield on their own. Even if there was no swords nor blood, but it was also a very harsh world.

It was the world that could destroy them if they were not careful enough.

Even if Adela is no longer the same sister...

Perhaps her sister was still inside?

She didn’t know.

"This..."

Adela struggled to maintain her form as she stand up and Aurora patted Adela’s back to remind her to stand firm.

But it was useless.

*clatter*

The book feel down once again.

Adela felt frustrated and looked at Aurora with grievances. She couldn’t do this at all, couldn’t she stop learning?

"Let’s try again," Aurora replied. "Have Mother taught you this?"

Has Mother taught her?

Thinking of her days back in the White Family Residence, Adela nodded her head slowly. Duchess Isabella did teach Adela about etiquette, but she was not so strict. When Duchess Isabella saw that Adela couldn’t complete this balance task, she didn’t force Adela to complete it.

Aurora looked at Adela’s expressions and guessed that Duchess Isabella went easy on Adela again.

It was already very common.

One of the reasons was because of Adela’s weak body and the other reason was also because of the future that they set for Adela. Since they didn’t really expect Adela to do many things, they arranged for her like this.

However, Aurora was calm.

"Let’s try again. I’ll switch to lighter books so you don’t have to think about its presence."

"Alright." Adela wiped her tears.

She knew that it was useless for her to refuse even if she wanted to.

As they continued to practice, some girls passed by and saw Adela was crying while Aurora was standing beside her.
