Chapter 4 - Lonely

But if you think back, Vanya, who survived his death in the swimming pool, did look different, he was like a different person. Even his attitude and behavior against his family, completely changed. Not only that, he who used to look at Devan full of love, doesn't anymore. In the past, if Vanya saw Devan, she would turn crazy, even clinging to him. But now, Vanya looks at Devan like an enemy, there is no longer the spoiled voice like before, there are no more poetic words spoken to Devan when they meet.

Martinez Family Room

"I hate that damn idiot, how dare he defy me. How dare he raise his head to look at me, then speak rudely to my servant!" Lusi expressed her emotions towards her extended family. Including other grandchildren.

Sara—Samsim's wife—hugged her in-laws to comfort her. "Mother, calm down. "I heard all that from Sonia's father, I was just as surprised."

Tania—Sonia's mother—joined in the conversation. "We don't know why that idiot could be this brave towards us, isn't he very afraid of us?"

"Don't worry, he won't stay like this." Sara smiled evilly, raised her chin to look at the entire family gathered in the room, except for Dion who was out partying with his friends.

it had been raining so hard for weeks, Vanya looked out the window, seeing her cousin preparing to go to school in his horse-drawn carriage. Vanya, who was punished for 3 months for not leaving his room, had to accept his fate of not being present at school. Currently, he doesn't have the strength to fight Devan, because he is a clever person who is difficult to defeat. There is only one way to get his family out of his death. First, resign from your job. but how could Vanya get his father to quit his job, if King Philip wouldn't want to? His father always came home with victory, everyone instead made his father the god of salvation for all the British people. let's just say, his father was a refuge for the people and was able to kill a group of rebels who wanted to seize King Philip's territory.

Vanya, who was thinking about everything, was surprised by Yuta. "Miss, how long will you eat these vegetables? Look at your body, you're shrinking. what if the Elder Madam and the Old Madam see you? They will definitely scold me for not being able to take care of you." Yuta squeezed his clothes, he was worried.

Vanya lifted Yuta's chin. "Next time, if someone fights you, you have to fight them back, you can't be afraid, I'm with you. I'll go tonight, prepare a horse."

"No! This is very dangerous. You could be kidnapped by criminals. Besides, how can you ride alone?" Yuta left, not wanting to hear Vanya's words which could endanger his safety.

Vanya sighed. He, who had finished his meal, was now soaking in a tub of warm water sprinkled with roses. Vanya doesn't usually soak in flower water. Previously, she didn't care about perfumed tubs. but now it's different, Vanya prefers to smell the flowers in the pool, she fell asleep due to the aromatherapy. Fresh roses make the aroma intoxicating to the sense of smell.

Yuta came in with a towel while massaging Vanya's head, who was sleeping in the water tub. "Miss, as long as you eat green vegetables, you really become very beautiful. What I'm afraid of now is, what if your beauty makes you die too quickly?"

Vanya immediately opened his eyes after hearing Yuta's words, he turned around while grinding his teeth loudly. He again remembered his death in the past. She was strangled by her in-laws and her cousin instead made love to Devan. Vanya lightly grabbed the towel from Yuta's shoulder, he stood up, put the towel on and got out of the bath. "Whoever dares to kill me, I will make sure he will die first. An eye for an eye, blood must replace blood." Vanya's words were like an invisible dagger.

Yuta gasped. "So, does Miss mean you want to kill them?" Yuta asked

Vanya brutally threw away the negligee in her cupboard, because she was once again remembering her dark past. "Burn all these clothes, I don't want to wear these clothes anymore! Get me my sister's clothes," Vanya ordered. Vanya's breathing was irregular. She remembered the clothes she wore before, making everyone insult her, she looked old wearing a negligee given to her by her father's stepfamily.

In his first life, he never really bought new clothes and always wore used clothes belonging to his father's stepfamily. Even though he is very rich, he owns the Tiga Raksa wheat export factory, but why does he always wear other people's used clothes? Vanya is really stupid, the beauty she has can actually destroy her country. It's just that he was lied to and poisoned through the food his family had prepared. Not only that, his body became fat like a pig, it turns out they secretly gave him appetite-increasing medicine.

"I can't do anything out there if I don't have money myself," said Vanya while wearing her brother's clothes.

"Miss, please take me with you, I will accompany you. When you die, I will die with you." Yuta begged.

Vanya knows Yuta's sincerity in the past. Yuta died because he was raped and tortured by Devan's men. Yuta was actually accused of stealing from the Queen's palace. Vanya, who remembers the dark days of Yuta's tragic death, now pulls Yuta's hand to stand in front of him. "Okay, you come with me." Vanya hugged Yuta, he didn't want Yuta to die again.

"Miss, are you crying?" Yuta felt Vanya's tears wet his shoulders.

"Change into my sister's clothes. Wait, you can ride, right?"

Vanya and Yuta secretly left their residence, they stole a horse belonging to their second and third uncle when the horse keeper fell asleep due to taking sleeping pills that Yuta had deliberately given them. Vanya and Yuta rode along dirt and rocky roads in the dark night. They only relied on the light of the moon to see. After fifteen minutes of riding, they arrived at the night market with fire lights along the road. Vanya and his servant were amazed to see such a busy night atmosphere, even so close to the city. Vanya and Yuta left their horses and joined hands to enjoy the atmosphere of the night market.

"Miss, how did you know there was a place like thisI feel like you never socialize or leave the house. Except for going to school."

In the past, Vanya often heard Sonia and Diana's conversations, they always visited this place, but his cousin didn't want to take him because he was embarrassed. now, Vanya was revived, he wouldn't forget to take this opportunity to come and have fun with his loyal servant. Vanya smiled looking at the trinkets hanging and changing color in the dark. Vanya wanted to buy, he felt the pocket of the trousers he was wearing. Hoping his brother had put a little money in his pocket, but apparently there wasn't any.

"Wear your face coverings. Don't let anyone recognize us." Vanya and Yuta rushed to cover their faces.

"Gentlemen, ladies and gentlemencome and see, we are making a show. Look at this, this is boiling hot oil and I will put my hand in this hot oil, this is only for people who are immune to science."

Everyone clapped around the old man who was making a show. the old man dipped his whole hand in boiling hot oil and did not cause any harm. Everyone watching was amazed by him. Those watching gave the old man money for his performance.

"Come on... come here, I challenge youIf you can be like me, then this money will be his!"

Everyone glanced at each other and no one dared to do something like that even though they wanted the money too. "I dare, as long as you really give me the money," said Vanya, challenging the old man who was making a show. Making everyone turn to look at him. They wanted to see the man's face. Yuta even tried to forbid it, but Vanya still wanted to do it for money.*
