Villain Princess.

"Your daughter is not bad," Duke Rain whispered to Duchess Isabella.

Duchess Isabella frowned and glared at her second brother beside her. The etiquette of Duke Rain could be said to be extremely bad and now that he had become a duke without real power, he seemed to have let himself go even more.

Even if he could still act appropriately in most public occasion, Duke Rain would show his true self in front of his sister.

For Duchess Isabella who was also living in etiquette for her entire life, it was unacceptable.

"Mind your words, Second Brother," Duchess Isabella said sternly.

Duke Rain looked at his sister who was frowning and only laughed. He felt that these two people were always too rigid, but he stopped speaking.

At this time, Red Kingdom's King had already finished talking with Aurora and felt that her knowledge was really solid.

If he didn't know better, he would have never expected that this was a 10 years old child.

Red Kingdom's King looked at his sister. "You have taught her well, Isabella."

"Thank you for your compliment, Your Majesty."

"In that case, let her participate in the negotiation in two weeks' time. In the meantime, she could play with her cousins. I believe they will be happy to see her," Red Kingdom's King said.

Cousins?

Aurora's mind turned.

Red Kingdom practiced monogamy but there were also some cases of polygamy because of various reasons. The current King was one of the examples because he had one Queen and one concubine who had children for him.

There were a total of two princes and one princess in Red Kingdom from Red Kingdom's King.

As from Duke Rain?

He was not married and didn't have the interest to settle down.

There were many rumors that was not very good about it, but all in all, there were only two princes and one princess so far.

They were her cousins.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

After the talk, Duchess Isabella led Aurora out of the main hall. She glanced at Aurora and said, "Keep up your performance."

"Yes, Mother." Aurora lowered her head.

She knew better than anyone that her mother would never praise her. No matter how good performance was, it seemed to be just 'to be expected.' If her performance was lower, then she would be punished.

It has never been good enough.

Slowly, they made their way to the garden. There was the sound of laughter and Aurora saw her two cousins.

One of them was already 15 years old, a young man with bright blond hair and blue eyes. He had handsome appearance, but right now, he was kicking someone on the ground.

Beside him was another young boy who was around 11 to 12 years old, who had light brown hair. He was cheering his older brother and raised his small fist excitedly.

And under them was a young boy around the same age as the second prince. He was crouching on the ground, holding his head on his arm to protect it from the first prince's kick. His black hair looked rather conspicuous when the common hair color here was from brown, red, to blond.

"What are you doing?" Duke Rain asked when he saw the two princes behaved this way. Looking at the young boy on the ground, he had some guesses, but he still had to ask because his sister was looking in his direction. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

This sister of his was indeed very annoying.

"Uncle Rain." The two princes stopped and stepped back. The first prince pointed at the young boy. "He mocked me, so I'm teaching him a lesson."

Duke Rain looked at the young boy and said, "Stand up."

His tone was cold and overbearing as if he was looking at an ant that was far below him.

Hearing his tone, Aurora felt faint coldness in her heart but she quickly surpassed it. She knew very well that the Royal Family has always been far above others and their actions reflected the fact that they knew this very well.

Her eyes moved to the boy as he stood up and looked in their direction. The dark blue eyes seemed to reflect the sunlight, making it look bright.

He's really handsome.

"Prince Lester, or should I say Lester, you're now just a captive prince," Duke Rain said slowly. "What right do you have to mock the princes of Red Kingdom?"
