Untouchable Lady - Chapter 28

Diego stared at his daughter.

“You…! What the hell have you done now?!”

Then, this time, Ricardo, who was next to Diego, stood up with anger.

”Is that something you can say to your father now? Are you crazy?” 

Hillise’s words were shocking to Ricardo as well.

Is Hillise being the head of Inoaden instead of Diego?

As long as dirt didn’t get into his eyes, there was no way he could tolerate it.

“I can’t tolerate it. I can’t accept this. If you don’t return it as it was, I won’t be still!”

Hillise stared at Ricardo with pride, who was losing his temper.

“Is that so? What can you do if you don’t stay still?”

Ricardo’s body was entangled by a bunch of roses that spread out in an instant.

Ricardo tried to get out of there somehow, but he couldn’t.

“You… how?!”

The more he moved his body, the sharper the rose thorns on the vine would just dig deeper into his skin.

Everyone could see on Ricardo’s face that he was defeated.

And, after seeing the rose vines smothering him and starting to spread all over the restaurant, Ricardo soon lost his words.

It was the same for everyone in the restaurant.

“From now on, I will give orders. If you don’t like that, go out.”

Like that Hillise harshly dismissed Ricardo.

“However, I don’t know if you have the courage to do so.”

***

”What the hell is happening now?”

Gabriel stood at the door of the restaurant and couldn’t breathe much, with only her eyes wide open.

Not long ago, she was burying herself on the couch with a swollen face and tearing the tissue to pieces.

It was regrettable that she couldn’t go to the ball in Kallikia because of Diego’s probationary order. 

Gabriel has been looking forward to the ball that will be held that day.

Moreover, this ball was to celebrate Violetta’s birthday, who is called the Princess of Kallikia.

As much as that, she wanted to attend, however, Diego’s order to ban her from going out, caused the plan to be destroyed, and Gabriel felt disappointed.

But Gabriel was excited to show off her beauty on the spot, with the intention of taking all the attention during the ball. 

Imagining the wrath in Violetta’s face, made her heart flutter.

Gabriel was fully aware of her charm, and she enjoyed the usual look of others to herself. Among those, she was especially pleased to be praised compared to Violetta.

She is called Princess of Inoaden and Violetta is called Princess of Kallikia. 

Although Gabriel did not really inherit the blood of Inoaden, she received the affection of Ricardo.

That is why everyone from outside treated Gabriel more than Hillise and did not hesitate to call her the princess of Inoaden.

Gabriel loved that title very much.

And that’s why she was dissatisfied with other people calling a woman from another family with the same nickname as her.

Of course, Violetta had noble blood, and in a sense, it could mean that she was closer to a real princess than Gabriel.

However, when looked at in various ways, Kallikia was also lower than the current Inoaden.

Moreover, even if the family was separated, Gabriel could confidently affirm that she was the one who suited being a princess more.

So, she used to show off her beauty by showing it like a peacock in every event she attended with Violetta.

Each time, Violetta’s eyes changed as if she was seeing a kitten frolicking for the owner’s attention, or a cat sneering with a small bulge, but Gabriel was intoxicated with herself and couldn’t notice it.

Anyway, she was in the middle of making a wholesome fuss by tearing a piece of tissue out of the room out of anger.

It’s been a while since she did this, so in front of her was a long, unusable tissue, torn.

”If it was the way it was, I should have been putting Chris next to me and putting Violetta on drugs by now.”

(QC: It means if she would have attended the ball, she would have spent her time with Chris whilst done some harm to Violetta…she must have planned something)

In the end, all the dresses and accessories carefully prepared for today have become obsolete.

It was unfortunate and frustrating, but if I think positively about it, it was fortunate that she didn’t have to meet Christian today.

Gabriel was still not relieved by the attitude she had seen in the garden last time.

But when she looked at Christian’s face, she was clearly relieved without knowing, so she easily forgave him…

“Huh! No matter how much he apologizes next time, I won’t just go over it.’ 

Gabriel struggled to make her mind.

As she was thinking hard, Donna, her former maid, ran into the room.

After that, when she heard the story she had told, Gabriel dropped the tissue she had in her hand on her lap.

“Sister Hillise disappeared?” 

“I think so! I saw the window that the master blocked was open. The walls in the hallway were still the same, so I went in and checked but I didn’t see her!”

Suddenly, she felt a cold feeling in her back, and she felt anxious to be alone in the room. 

“What are you doing now? I have to go at once!”

Gabriel was almost lying on the sofa and jumped up.

Following the movement, pieces of tissue that had been piled up on her knees fluttered and scattered.

And so Gabriel heard that Ricardo was at the restaurant.

For some reason, she could see her father, who was enraged, spreading unpleasant energy and going crazy.

It was her first time seeing Diego like that, and Gabriel chased after him with curiosity while shrugging her shoulders without even knowing.

Then, the castle rang several times in the restaurant, and suddenly an earthquake-like vibration spread from the inside

Even in that hectic situation, Gabriel captured what had happened in the restaurant through the open door.

Then she suffered a tremendous shock. 

Hillise first left the restaurant while Gabriel was standing.

But then she confronted her head-on and stopped Hillise. 

“Hey, sister Hillise.”

As soon as the golden eyes met, Gabriel froze like a rabbit in front of a wild beast. 

Diego was also helpless and couldn’t do anything. 

It was clear that she couldn’t even speak to her.

Hillise with an expressionless face made a step forward silently.

Gabriel trembled in fear and closed her eyes tightly. 

However the next moment, she felt a force passing by her side. 

Hillise didn’t even do anything to Gabriel, and as she walked, she went away from her.

“Ha….”

It was only when Hillise disappeared silently, without even making a sound, Gabriel exhaled the breath she had barely held.

Badum badum – Her chest was beating very loudly from the beginning.

“Did I hear it wrong?! Sister Hillise defeated Father and became the owner of Inoaden?”

Of course, Gabriel was the same as Ricardo and didn’t understand the situation.

However, it was clear in her mind that Diego tried to scare Hillise with his force, then failed and finally sat down with a white face.

On the other hand, Hillise did not give in to Diego’s threat and faced it head-on, and in front of him in a tumultuous manner, she announced that she had become king of Inoaden from that moment on.

In addition to that, she even simply neutralized Ricardo.

Gabriel’s head began to spin.

She wasn’t smart, but she seemed to know that she was on a sinking ship.

Gabriel grabbed her confused head and glanced at Diego and Ricardo inside the restaurant.

Then, she hurriedly moved, squeezing her lips, and left the restaurant.

***

The farther away she was from the restaurant, the faster her feet went to the nearest washroom.

“Gosh….!”

Hillise hurriedly went inside and became nauseous.

All of the foods that she couldn’t eat properly because of the fuss were suddenly turning upside down in her stomach. 

Suddenly, she had to use a huge external force, and because of the second awakening, her body was overwhelmed.

Only after emptying her insides, Hillise narrowed her eyebrows and raised her head.

It was a shame. The meal was delicious.

She wanted to remind herself to put up the same menu again tomorrow.
