The Villainess’ Beloved Plan: The Struggles to Avoid a Doomed End - Chapter 40

Randall was still in a bad mood when he returned to his room

When Sophia returned to the main room of the Royal Suite, after having Isolte help her bathe and put on a gown over her nightgown, Randall was still looking upset.

She didn’t want to talk too much to a grumpy Randall, but Sophia remembered that there was only one large bed in this bedroom and opened her mouth fearfully.

“Hey, I’m going to rest in Orion and Isolte’s room, okay?”

“Why?”

Sophia said in a fearful tone, “Because there is only one bed in this room.”

“So?”

“Because of ……?”

Sophia couldn’t help but stammer the same words.

Sophia said she would sleep in a different room because there was only one bed. She didn’t want to repeat the same words.

“What’s the inconvenience?”

‘What’s the problem? Of course there is!　There is only one bed. It’s one bed, even if it’s a big one. It can’t be broken into two. If this isn’t an inconvenience, what is?’

Randall would not want to sleep in the same bed with Sophia. He had been avoiding Sophia for so long that he had been sleeping in the castle until just last month. Of course, even after coming back to the Duke of Voltio’s house, they had never rested in the same room.

But Randall, as if annoyed, frowned and said, “You’re aware that you’re my wife, aren’t you?”

‘I don’t understand.’

‘Aware of being a wife? How could I be? Randall had never acted like a husband. He has always said that Sophia is the object of his surveillance, but when he suddenly says, “You’re aware that you’re my wife, aren’t you?”, ” I was like, “What?”‘

“Even today, you and Kyle were so close to each other. How many times have I told you not to disgrace the Duke of Voltio’s family?”

‘Yes, there it is. Don’t disgrace the Duke of Voltio. He said that in his second sentence, but how could I “tarnish the Duke of Voltio’s house reputation” by befriending Kyle? Kyle is the eldest son of the Duke of Levord. He is the next duke. And he is Randall’s friend. There was no reason for them to be on bad terms.

As expected, Sophia was starting to get a little peeved and turned away.

“Whoever I am friends with is none of your business Randall.”

“I’m your husband.”

“Oh, you’re only my husband when it suits you. You didn’t even come home until recently, and when you finally did, we barely spoke to each other, and we didn’t even share a room. I don’t think you’re my husband. I think you’re less than my roommate.”

“What?”

Sophia turns her chin away.

Randall stood up frustrated.

“I don’t approve of you sleeping in the servants’ quarters, anyway.”

“What then, are you trying to tell me I have to sleep on the couch?”

“Why don’t you sleep in your bed!”

‘If I take the bed, where will Randall sleep? How can I sleep on the couch?’

Randall is tall. If he tried to sleep on the sofa, his legs would be too long. No matter how good the sofa was, he would never feel comfortable. That’s why Sophia said she was leaving. Why can’t this man understand people’s kindness?

“Why should I sleep on the sofa?”

“So you sleep on the floor then?”

‘………’

Randall stared at her, and Sophia raised her eyebrows suspiciously.

Sophia had no choice but to sleep with Randall. Sophia can’t think of any other choice but for her to sleep in Orion and the others’ room or for Randall to sleep on the floor or on the sofa. She was left with no other option when Randall rejected every option she could think of.

‘I think it would be better if I went with Orion and the others.’

‘What is wrong with Randall? He has been in a bad mood. Well, I didn’t expect at all to have a happy and mushy lovey-dovey honeymoon with Randall, but I can’t imagine what’s going to happen next. I’m not enjoying this trip at all.’

“… You can use the bed, I will also use the bed.”

“But we only have one bed.”

“——, so! That’s why I said we should sleep together!”

“— Huh?” Sophia rounded her eyes..

” Did you say sleep together?” With Randall? “You’re kidding, right?”

If it was a joke, she would have laughed it off, but Randall is not the joking type. Then it would mean he was serious. Sophia gasped and her face turned bright red.

“What are you talking about? Are you having dirty thoughts, idiot?”

“Who are you calling an idiot? We are on our honeymoon! Where in the world would a man let his wife sleep on the floor, on the couch, or even in the servants’ quarters?”

“It doesn’t matter, I said it was fine!”

‘No, no, no, no! Sleep with Randall? No, no, no, no! I’ll die of embarrassment! I refuse! This beautiful face sleeping next to me… I’d do something to him! I would definitely at least cuddle with him while he sleeps! Anyway, this is very bad for my mental health. In the game world, I could squeal over the handsomeness, but in the real world, the thought of my favorite face breathing right next to me makes my brain shake.’

‘What a silly thing Randall is saying! 　There is an order to things! It takes time to build my heart! First we go on a date holding hands, then he kisses me on the forehead and cheek, then he kisses me for the first time while watching the roses in the greenhouse like in the game, and then….’

Sophia was about to get lost in her fantasy, but she hurriedly shook her head. This is no time for fantasies. The first thing to do now is to break out of this situation.

Sophia and Randall stared at each other silently for a while. Randall might not back down, but Sophia was absolutely unwilling to budge. Her heart might stop. Her life was in danger.

After ten minutes, a revelation flashed through Sophia’s mind.

Randall said no “servants’ quarters” and no “sofa” and no “floor.” A bed in the royal suite would be fine. Then–‘

“I’ll ask Kyle to let me sleep in his room!”

…… Sophia was quite muddled.

It was an inspiration that came to her after she had fallen into a nonsensical train of thought, thinking that as long as it was not Randall sleeping next to her, she would be fine.

Naturally, Randall was…..

“You’ve got to be kidding….!”

He thundered.
