I’ll Become the Female Lead in this Trashy Webnovel - Chapter 88.1

Climax (1)

The day when she first stepped into the reception hall, she was invited to the Empress’s birthday party. “Once you leave the reception hall, walk straight down the corridor on the right. There’s a room there with several dresses prepared. Take one out and put it on.”

Clutching the soft cardboard she had been handed, Kelly walked down the corridor. Her heart felt like it was constantly pounding as if it had malfunctioned upon receiving the invitation for the first time. She was so excited that she had even forgotten the fact that her body was soaked from the torment she had endured before. And in that corridor, she encountered a drunken man. Staggering uncontrollably, he collided with her in the darkness. Yes, he had said something like that back then, with a smile. “It’s strange. When I touch you, I feel good. You’re different from others.”

At that time, she didn’t even know who the man was. His solid body trapped her limbs, as she continued to rebel against him. It had been a feeble struggle, to say the least. She had thought it was just some act done under the influence of alcohol but that was a misconception. Today, too, Daniel was committing the same actions with vivid chestnut-colored eyes as back then. His long fingers swept over her cheek and trailed down her neck. Resigned to everything, Kelly closed her eyes and felt the moist breath nearing her face. But then, it happened.

*BANG*

The door was roughly thrown open, and suddenly, someone burst in. At that disruption, Daniel’s head turned, and Kelly, who had tightly shut her eyes, opened them. Ariadne clutched her knees, gasping for breath before straightening herself up with effort. Sweat droplets clung to her face. Shortly after, as her gaze met Kelly while she was pressed against the wall, Ariadne urgently shouted.

“Stop!!!”

Sohee didn’t expect that finding Daniel and Kelly could be so difficult. She saw it that way, at least. She had recorded the location of the incident, after all. Though the accuracy had slightly diminished due to the vague description of what she had written as the author.

‘It’s one of the rooms on the right side of the corridor from the reception hall.’ Sohee thought. How many rooms could there possibly be? It was a problem that could be solved by roughly checking and opening doors.

Sohee had passed the time while leisurely nibbling on the macarons. Excited by the lavish spread of food, she chatted away with Mary, who kept picking at this and that. She felt at ease because she believed everything was in her hands. Suddenly, she sensed something strange when she realized that Kelly and Daniel were no longer in my field of vision.

“They were definitely there just a moment ago, right?” Sohee, who was eating dessert within sight of them, stood up abruptly. She quickly scanned her surroundings as she walked energetically from one end of the hall to the other. It was only after she looked around that she realized the sun had already set. Sohee rushed out of the hall. Seeing the rows of doors lining the dimly lit corridor, she felt an urge to hit her forehead hard. “Isn’t this crazy? Why are there so many rooms here?”

She had only believed the description, ‘one of the rooms on the right side of the corridor from the reception hall’. but she hadn’t anticipated that this vague description would give rise to so many rooms. If she had known this, she would have clearly described which room it was.

Regretting her oversight, Sohee diligently opened the doors. Occasionally, she encountered noble men and women engaged in a kiss in some rooms, or made eye contact and exchanged polite greetings with those who curtsied at her.

With every room she checked, her anxiety grew. She was increasingly anxious about how to proceed if the story wasn’t unfolding as she had described. In reality, there shouldn’t have been any twists in Daniel and Kelly’s story. Initially, it was just to prevent Joshua and Kelly’s love story from succeeding. However, as her hurried steps continued, her mind was filled only with concern for Kelly.

No matter how inconspicuous the scene might be, she hadn’t intended to write such scenes. It was when she opened the last door that she had bitten her lip.

*BANG*

With that frantic noise, Sohee bent her waist and took a breath. As she straightened herself up immediately, she was surprised to see  large chestnut-colored eyes. The story hadn’t twisted. Even as a fleeting sense of relief washed over her, Sohee urgently reached out and charged forward.

“Stop!!!” Due to a woman’s sudden appearance, Daniel’s face contorted in an unseemly manner. The woman was even drenched in sweat, and she was charging at him with her disheveled appearance. Beads of sweat rolled down her forehead. In Daniel’s eyes, that was the only thing that seemed to magnify slowly. “Take your hands off right now!!!”
