The Fake Wants to Leave

Eugene saw Charlize leaving while loosing his tie.

“It’s exhausting.”

Eugene was also exhausted from being with Charlize all day. He, who likes to be alone, was not happy to be with anyone at work.

Charlize was the first.

What the hell is she thinking?

Eugene tapped his forehead with his index finger at the coming headache.

“Please, just stay calm. Charlize.”

It was Eugene’s small cry for Charlize to stay put, who left the office.

Charlize quickly went into her room.

“What should I do now?”

Should she live under this pressure for three years and then die the day Tia comes back?

‘Will I be able to endure it until then? From those assholes?’

She can never stand it.

She hoped there would be a breakthrough for Charlize in this game.

Charlize was surrounded by people who hated her. Who would like her for using abusive language and violence?

Charlize lay sprawled on the bed, thinking about what to do next.

She didn’t know anything about what was going to happen in the future because there was no foreign people in the game from Charlize’s point of view.

In addition, she had a sense of anxiety that if she ran away at night, she would continue to be caught.

‘Can’t I just stay put? Waiting for death? But if I die three years later after Tia appears, there’s no guarantee that I’ll return to reality.’

The original owner of the body, the real Charlize, seemed to have committed suicide. It was because in her last memory, she poured all the sleeping pills into her mouth and lied down on the bed wanting to go to the Duchess.

Then Charlize was possessed by Kim Daneun.

Ridiculous. Charlize committed only evil acts in the original game but did not commit suicide.

She was a villain who was only killed by male protagonists.

In other words, she is not a villain who will kill herself.

Wait, kill herself?

“I tried to kill myself like Charlize as I saw in the dream after possessing her, and then I returned to reality for a while.”

But the priest saved Charlize with his magical power and that’s how she entered the game again.

Charlize opened her golden eyes wide.

‘Yes, I have to die to again get back to reality. Death is the part of the exit.’

To leave this world.

There was no choice but to die.

Even if Charlize lived in this game, she didn’t want to live among the main characters. Who wants to be persecuted for the rest of their lives?

She decided to experiment for now.

An experiment on whether she really has to die on her own to get back to reality.

It’s been a month since Kim Daneun was possessed by Charlize for the second time.

In the meantime, Charlize chased Eugene’s tail everywhere while Jeremy would say some mean things often, but somehow his face was full of anxiety.

If Charlize dies, he won’t be able to keep his mother’s will. Jeremy was heartbroken thinking that.

This is how he felt, but Charlize was shamelessly doing well.

Rather than worrying about what else she would do, it was the people around Charlize who seemed anxious about what other accidents she would cause. Before he knew it, Jeremy also started staying together with Charlize in Eugene’s office.

Because of Charlize’s suicide attempt, the Emperor had gave him some days off. So Jeremy’s now on vacation.

“Why don’t we have a tea party? With the men of Tia.”

“……Charlize, you know you’re talking crazy again, don’t you?”


Jeremy, who was sitting next to Charlize, said with a stiffened face.

“Why are you talking as I’m out of my mind? I also want to get close to the men who want Tia.”

In fact, she had never met the male protagonists properly since she was possessed by Charlize.

Strangely, the mere reason that Tia disappeared ruined Duke Rebecca’s reputation.

In other words, Charlize did something cruel with all the male protagonists and it was her brothers who suffered.

For a month, she had lived a tight life being dragged by Eugene and scolded by Jeremy.

‘Don’t you think I can do whatever I want for once? It occurred to me that I can’t.’

“I want to evaluate as an older sister whether the men who love Tia are suitable for Tia.”

“Brother Eugene, I think Charlize is out of her mind. How dare you want to evaluate-“

“All right.”

“Brother Eugene?”

Jeremy was puzzled by Eugene’s sudden permission.

“Really? Can I see them again?”

“Only if you don’t slap them in the face.”

“How dare I hit those noble people? Don’t joke Brother Eugene.”

Charlize smiled sweetly and waved her hand up and down as if the joke was excessive.

“Brother, are you seriously going to let her have a tea party with them? You will invite them?”

“Since Charlize wants it, I thought it’d be better to do it at least once. She has been quiet for a month. It’s not bad to listen to what she wants at least once.”

“Brother, do you think they’ll come to Charlize’s tea party?”

“I can make them come.”

“That’s not the problem, they’re not the ones who’ll come to our Duke’s house without Tia.”

“We can’t help it if they refuse the invitation. Isn’t that right, Charlize?”

Charlize nodded to Eugene’s insensitive tone.

“Yes. If they don’t come, let’s have a tea party on our own.”

Charlize’s golden eyes that reflected in the sun and shone like a jewel, hid her loathing towards the male protagonists.

‘I hate you guys so much.’

She lived quietly as Charlize for a month.

No one treated Charlize so seriously as the member of Rebecca.

She doesn’t like them all.

After Charlize was possessed by Kim Daneun, Charlize’s personality and behavior began to get sync with this body.

She lived in captivity for a month.

People can change at unexpected circumstances.

A changed person can not return to his original state.

Charlize seemed to go crazy with depression whenever she entered her room at night after spending her day with Eugene.

As if the body responded that it should be depressed.

Gradually she became impoverished, and she was living in pain through loneliness.

“Then I’ll write the invitation myself, but don’t expect an answer, Charlize.”

“Thank you, Brother Eugene.”

Charlize smiled like a doll.

Eugene and Jeremy didn’t look at her, so she slowly lowered the corners of her lips.

Eugene sent a tea party invitation to the men of Tia, as he told Charlize.

Funny how the letters in response to an invitation from Charlize were written in the same sentence for all the four, “Thank you all for the invitation,” and were poured into the house of Duke of Rebecca.

Seeing that the tea party would happen tomorrow, Eugene concluded that these people were also out of their minds.

Eugene headed to Charlize’s room to inform her of this.

‘Is she sleeping, or is she doing something crazy again?’

Sometimes Charlize tried to jump out of the window a few times. He felt uneasy whenever he saw her, who did not show any human emotions in her empty eyes.

The Duchess’ favorite doll.

The child, who they thought was only that, was struggling to die.

Why does she want to die even after she was adopted by a good family?

Eugene stood in front of Charlize’s room.

And he knocked lightly.

“Charlize, I’m coming in.”

As the door opened, he could see the back of Charlize standing by the window. She was staring blankly at the round moon with a red glow.

“Charlize, you’re not thinking about jumping off the window, are you?”

Eugene frowned, implying he was sick of Charlize’s behavior. Still, it sounded like he was pitying Charlize.

He hasn’t heard of Tia for more than a month, and Charlize is thinking about dying. Eugene is in a very sensitive state.

“No. I was watching because the moonlight was pretty today.”

“They decided to come to your tea party. That’s tomorrow, too.”

“Really? I thought they’d all refuse.”


Charlize spoke with her back to Eugene.

“Charlize, I’m dying with anxiety because you’re so quiet these days. You are not behaving as crazy as you used to be-“

“Brother Eugene. Am I precious?”

When Charlize asked, Eugene closed his open lips tightly like a clamp.

Is Charlize precious? He didn’t know…

It was like a relic left by his mother, so it was right to say that she was precious.

However, he honestly doesn’t give her the importance of family.

Eugene’s low voice spread quietly through the room.

“You are not precious enough to be a family.”

“When Tia comes back, I will die.”

Eugene couldn’t help but think she said the same thing last time. So he urged Charlize to stop talking nonsense.

“Brother Eugene. What will you do if I die instead of Tia coming back? Will you cry?”

To be honest, Charlize didn’t even want affection from this poor family. Still, she felt strange because she hadn’t had a family in the real world. She wanted to punch herself in the mouth for asking those questions but she couldn’t help herself.

Perhaps because of the original Charlize, who had a strong lack of affection, she has become more sensitive, anxious, and maybe evil. It was because no one had ever told her they loved her since the Duchess died.
