Taming The Villainesses novel Chapter 274

(EP-274.1) Confession #2

274 – Reconciliation and Confession #2

I heard that the main stronghold of the Draco family, the Ten Thousand Peaks, was an oriental world, with people dressed in silk.

So, I intentionally booked a high-end fairy restaurant with a strong oriental feel and waited for Mirna to arrive.

Thump thump.

I was nervous.

“I’ll say it again, I’m not sure if this is the right thing to do.”

Elga voiced some rather pessimistic concerns. But she didn’t try to stop me or leave the place.

It was a relief that Elga was here with me, even while grumbling. If I were alone, I’d probably be even more nervous.

After waiting for a while, the sliding door opened and Mirna Draco appeared, dressed in a beautiful oriental outfit—with graceful lines and patterns.

It was reminiscent of a fairy’s wing robe and something a princess of the Dragon Palace would wear. The black silk was embroidered with a long golden dragon.

In the past, the head of the Draco family was called the Dragon King, so referring to Mirna as a princess of the Dragon Palace wasn’t entirely inaccurate.

“Lady Mirna, you’ve dressed up so beautifully. I almost didn’t recognize you for a moment.”

“Hmph, let’s skip the formalities... You said you had something to discuss. What’s this all about?”

━Yingyingyaing.

Yingying was here as well.

Mirna glanced around the restaurant, and frowned—noticing Elga’s presence.

“I thought this was going to be a private meeting between the two of us. It seems that’s not the case. Sir Theo, could you explain what’s going on?”

“As for this meeting, why don’t we start with a meal? I’ve selected a restaurant and menu that I think Lady Mirna will like. I’m sure you’ll enjoy it.”

Since it ◈ Nоvеlіgһт ◈ (Continue reading) was already lunchtime, I figured it was best to start by filling Mirna’s stomach. After all, people tended to be more relaxed and generous when they were full.

After finishing the meal, Mirna wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief. Then, with a rather firm voice, she spoke up.

“So, will you explain now? If you keep saying nothing, I’m going to feel like you’re just playing with me.”

“Um...”

I glanced at Elga. But Elga, as if she didn’t know either, averted her gaze. It was her way of telling me to handle it on my own.

In fact, I came here prepared for that.

To confess various things to Mirna and confront her with sincerity—.

It was a very simple thing.

However, people were surprisingly not that honest.

Whether by choice or by circumstance, many of us lived by keeping our true feelings deeply hidden in our hearts.

Sometimes, in certain situations, hiding one’s true feelings for everyone’s sake was even considered a virtue.

That was why a confession, whether it would be confessing love or admitting a mistake, usually required a lot of courage. It also consumed a lot of energy and commitment.

So, I first tried to figure out where and how to start explaining to Mirna. Then, after some thought, I slowly began to speak.

“Mirna-nim, the reason I called you here is because I need to confess something very important today.”
