I, the Villain, Want to Save Myself, But the Yandere Heroines Disagree-Chapter 16 - They Came Looking

An hour later, Orson, dressed, and Celineina, also dressed, looked at each other.

“Sigh,” After a long while, Orson still sighed.

Celineina showed a victorious smile and threw herself into Orson’s embrace.

“Celineina, I never thought you would be like this.”

“So, Orson, you hate me like this, do you?” Celineina murmured softly.

“Not at all. I am happy that you show me your true feelings, because at least you see me as a true friend, but...” Orson said this, and sighed again.

“You clearly know I have a fiancée...”

“But the Empire’s law doesn’t explicitly state monogamy.”

“But the church mandates...”

“Do you believe in the church, Orson?”

“...” Orson fell silent.

“See~” Celineina said this, revealing a smile. She then stood on tiptoes, hooked his neck, and gently kissed Orson’s chin.

Orson felt awkward about the other party’s intimate action.

He had sown the cause, and he should accept the result.

But for some reason, Orson only felt this scene was a bit dramatic.

He had clearly approached Celineina and helped Celineina in the beginning because he wanted her to be with Litte.

After knowing that Litte was a girl, he didn’t talk much about Litte with Celineina anymore, but maintained a normal working relationship.

He and Celineina were mutually beneficial. That was why he spared no effort to help Celineina. But somehow, Celineina misunderstood his help as romantic feelings.

Orson swore he was definitely not interested in Celineina’s body, but in that situation, the other party had already thrown herself at him. Could Orson just push her away?

“Alright, I know your difficulty, Orson,” Celineina said this, releasing her hand from Orson’s neck, revealing a look of regret.

“I will keep our relationship a secret and won’t let your fiancée know.”

“It’s best not to let Litte know either. He’s always loose-tongued,” Orson quickly added.

“Mm-hmm, I know. This matter is a secret between the two of us~”

“And, being able to completely entrust myself to you also makes me feel at ease,” Celineina’s tone carried a hint of relief.

At least she had followed her true feelings until the end. Although for some reason, she still had to suppress her feelings for Orson in front of certain people, they were currently alone, weren’t they?

“Thank you very much, Celineina,” Orson originally thought Celineina would use the fact that they had been intimate as leverage, forcing Orson to owe her a favor, but he hadn’t expected the other party to voluntarily make concessions.

For a woman to make concessions in matters of love, it truly showed how important Orson’s position was in Celineina’s heart.

“It’s alright, don’t thank me,” Celineina said this, looking at Orson with a glance, from head to toe, finally stopping at a certain place. “If you insist on thanking me, then... at least be more intimate when it’s just the two of us?”

“After all, I’ve always heard that you and your fiancée are very intimate. I’m quite jealous of that.”

“I...” Orson was about to say he was sorry he couldn’t do that, but seeing Celineina’s slightly resentful expression, he still nodded.

He had been thinking about how to explain to Litte and Olivia before, but now he understood. Explain what? It was better not to explain.

Just as Celineina was about to get closer to Orson for another intimate moment, there was a knock on the door of the private room.

Both Celineina and Orson were startled. The two quickly tidied up the mess in the private room before coming to the door. Then, Celineina opened the door, and Orson stood behind Celineina.

Lorenzo stood at the doorway, looking at Orson and Celineina’s expressions. Being good at observing expressions, he knew that something had definitely happened between the two last night.

“Um, Young Master Litte and Miss Olivia are at the trading company entrance. They want to see you, President. You see...”

“I understand,” Celineina nodded upon hearing this. “I’ll change clothes first. I’ll bring the two of them to my office later.”

“Alright,” Lorenzo heard Celineina’s instructions and immediately turned and went downstairs.

Meanwhile, Orson showed a troubled expression.

Some unpleasant memories surged into Orson’s mind again.

“Do you think they’re here to catch me?”

“Very likely.”

“Then... how should I leave? Should I climb out the window?”

“No. If I were your fiancée, and you didn’t come home all day yesterday, when I came looking for you today, I would definitely have set up some lookouts nearby. If you climb out the window with such a big movement, you’ll definitely be seen,” Celineina said this.

“Then...”

“Orson, I have an idea. It might inconvenience you a bit,” Celineina said this, looking at Orson, and suddenly showed a mischievous smile.

“What do you mean?”

...

“Hey, does your president usually conduct business like this?” Litte was also a little anxious at this moment. She was afraid she had been too clever for her own good and Celineina had actually made a move. “Waking up so late, if a guest had arrived early, wouldn’t they have been left waiting outside?”

“Young Master Litte, my deepest apologies,” Lorenzo said this, bowing in apology. “The president hasn’t been feeling well lately, and she’s been staying up late dealing with matters, so she’s waking up a bit later than usual.”

“Heh, not feeling well but still inviting my fiancé for dinner. Your president and my fiancé certainly have a good relationship,” Even Olivia’s words had become aggressive.

“Haha, there’s nothing we can do. After all, the president has been cooperating with Young Master Orson, and Young Master Orson has contributed greatly to her current position,” Lorenzo scratched his head, looking at the two with a smile.

As the saying goes, don’t hit a smiling face. Seeing how thick-skinned Lorenzo was, Olivia and Litte also didn’t know what to say and could only stand at the entrance and wait.

At this moment, inside the trading company, a girl with long black hair walked out. She wore a hood, and her face was covered with a veil.

Then, she walked up to Lorenzo and whispered something in his ear.

Subsequently, Lorenzo nodded.

“You two, the president invites you upstairs,” Saying this, Lorenzo made a welcoming gesture, indicating that the two could enter the trading company.

“Finally,” Litte said, seeing this, and quickly walked into the trading company.

Olivia specifically stopped when she passed the black-haired girl. She turned her head and glanced at her.

The girl’s expression was natural. She met Olivia’s gaze without any fear. Instead, her eyes showed a hint of a smile as she curtsied to her.

Seeing this, Olivia said nothing and walked straight upstairs.

After the two walked into the trading company, the black-haired girl also left the trading company and walked towards the outskirts.

...

“What? You say my older brother left last night?” Litte stood in the office, looking at Celineina sitting in the chair, showing a surprised expression.

“Yes, Orson had dinner here last night, said he had something to take care of, and then left. What’s wrong? Did he not go home?”

“No,” Litte shook her head, then looked at Olivia. “What should we do? Senior Olivia, it seems Orson isn’t here...”

“Miss Celineina, may I ask where you and Orson had dinner last night? What did you eat for dinner? Did you drink alcohol? What time did Orson leave?” Olivia seemed not to believe Celineina’s statement and kept asking for specific information.

“Last night, Orson and I had dinner in a private room. The dinner menu was provided by the best chef in Antica City. If you want to know the specifics, I can find the chef for you. As for what time he left, it was around eleven o’clock in the evening. We finished dinner then and chatted about business for a while, and Orson left.”

Celineina was not flustered by Olivia’s interrogation-like questions. Instead, she calmly answered Olivia’s questions one by one.

“Alright,” Olivia nodded upon hearing this. “Then, I suspect Orson is hiding in the trading company. May I search the trading company?”

“That’s a bit against the rules...” Celineina frowned. “From what you’re saying, you suspect that I lied to you, is that right?”

“This is just my guess. If I have offended you, I apologize.”

“Never mind, never mind,” Celineina said upon hearing this, waving her hand. “I can understand your feelings. You can search here, but don’t mess up the trading company. Otherwise, it will be a laughingstock for outsiders.”

“Then I thank you, President Celineina, for your generosity,” Olivia said this. Although she was a bit confused by Celineina’s actions, she still led Litte in searching the various rooms of the trading company.

Half an hour later, the two regrouped in the lobby on the first floor of the trading company.

“Litte, are you finished searching?”

“Yes, I’m finished searching my side. I didn’t find Orson.”

“That’s strange... I didn’t find him here either...” Olivia heard this and became even more puzzled.

“Orson really shouldn’t be here. Sister Celineina probably didn’t lie to us.”

“Then where could he have gone?” Olivia said, showing a strange expression upon hearing this.

The hidden guards outside had also sent messages, not seeing any sign of Orson.

In other words, Orson really wasn’t in the trading company.

“You two, is that satisfactory?” At this moment, Celineina’s voice came.

She stood on the stairs, holding the handrail, looking down at the two.

“If there is nothing else, please look for Orson elsewhere. He is truly not here.”

“...We apologize for the intrusion,” Olivia said this, staring deeply at Celineina, then left with Litte.

On the other side, on the outskirts of Antica City.

Orson took off his hood and veil, put away his wig and women’s clothes, and put on his usual clothes.

Fortunately, this outfit didn’t suffer any damage last night, otherwise, he really would have been in a trouble. freēnovelkiss.com
