And finally, just after Neris took a step into the dark warehouse.

“Exactly.”

Bang.

Neris reached out her arm and grabbed the handle of the open warehouse door, then quickly stepped back and firmly closed it from the outside.

And she locked the door securely.

Valentine didn’t realize what had happened to her for a moment. It felt like she was in a dream.

But even in the darkness where not a single ray of light came in, the faint sound of mice crawling around reminded her of reality.

She was trapped. Moreover, in a place intentionally prepared to confine Neris all night!

“Hey!”

Valentine shouted in anger from head to toe.

“What are you doing! Open the door!”

“What’s with the bad habit, Valentine.”

Neris calmly spoke from outside the door. Just hearing her voice made it seem like the two were having a conversation between the folds of a fan at some social gathering.

Valentine was dumbfounded. How did she know?

When she had to call
So, after Valentine’s memorable first class at the academy ended and she returned to the dormitory, she persuaded Isabelle, who had just mentioned visiting Neris, to do so. Send it to the white pavilion by the lake.

On the day of the entrance ceremony, Valentine had a meal with Neris at that place, so Valentine, in her own way, called the only place she knew.

After that, things progressed quickly. As always, Delma quickly took care of everything Valentine needed.

Finding an empty house, turning on the lights in that house, and locking the main gate.

Fortunately, this place was secluded enough that even if they made quite a noise, it wouldn’t be heard from the surrounding houses.

Spending the night alone in this filthy warehouse, wouldn’t she become a bit more refined? Wouldn’t she shed a tear or two? Neris completely ruined Valentine’s pleasant imagination.

“Y-you wretch! Open the door! Aren’t you opening it? What kind of joke is this!”

“You were the one who started the joke. How long did you plan to keep me confined? Until tomorrow morning?”

Valentine, who had been banging on the door, stopped. How did this fox-like girl know?

No, anyway, there’s no evidence! She’ll catch her soon.

“When did I ever plan to do that!”

“Seeing you come alone, you really didn’t want your oppa to find out, huh? Leaving Delma behind so he wouldn’t find out you left? You thought hard for someone with your limited brain. Let this unni enlighten you. If someone harbors bad thoughts, they will receive the same in return.”

Since there was no lighting inside the warehouse, Valentine, as the sun set, was completely trapped in the darkness. The voice coming from outside the door was so monotonous that it sounded like anger.

Thanks to that, Valentine forgot for a moment that she had thought of trying to soothe Neris.

“You wicked girl! If you come out of here, I won’t leave you alone! Nel oppa won’t just let you go! I’m the daughter of a duke!”

“And I’m the daughter of a knight. I don’t know what pride you have as the daughter of a duke, but I have the pride to stand and fight when challenged as the daughter of a knight.”

Valentine couldn’t see, but bitterness crept onto Neris’s face as she stood in front of the warehouse door.

Pride as the daughter of a knight. Hadn’t that been tainted in her past life? While playing the role of a lackey for dirty scoundrels, she couldn’t resist once and died.

‘At least in this life.’

It wouldn’t happen so foolishly.

Valentine in her past life did the same actions. It wasn’t on the first day of school, but a few days later.

At that time, Neris spent the night in a filthy and dark warehouse without knowing English. Since she used a room alone and had no friends, there was no one to look for her even if she disappeared. Unfortunately, mice even came out in the warehouse.

Fortunately, the next morning, a resident of Catten who came to fish by the lake discovered Neris, but if not for that, it would have been a big problem.

Neris couldn’t go to complain to the young lady of the house that lent her the tuition, considering she was a duke’s daughter.

After that incident and a few days later, when Valentine, surrounded by first-year classrooms, encountered Neris, she didn’t bat an eye and said.

“That’s right, it was you.”

And then the cruel torment continued.

At that time, Neris couldn’t understand. If you didn’t care enough to forget, why did you have to put so much effort into tormenting someone?

Now, she roughly knew the answer to that question.

In Valentine’s mind, Neris always held a low position. Nevertheless, Valentine couldn’t stand anything that bothered her, even a little.

If something bothered her even slightly, she had to thoroughly eliminate it.

Didn’t even someone as important and known as Megara say that if she became the Crown Princess, she would kill her?

So, isn’t there any other way but to become thorough in this matter?
“You won’t be here for long anyway. Your precious Delma will come looking for you soon. Just be quiet for a moment, Valentine.”

Valentine screamed as if having a fit, exactly as Neris expected, at the affectionate nickname called deliberately with a prolonged end.

“You, like you! Calling me by my nickname so recklessly! A girl who can’t even receive a proposal! Worthless and miserable! You’re a rotten apple! Got it? You don’t fit in this school, in aristocratic society! Even a passing dog would be more valuable than you! Don’t think that our father will continue to pay your tuition after treating me like this!”

A passing dog. Valentine’s metaphor was the same then as it is now. Neris was almost lost in consciousness.

Rotten apple, worthless and miserable, a passing dog.

The most vulgar and harsh curse known to the young daughter of a duke.

The words Valentine used no longer had an impact on Neris. It was just the words of a helpless child trapped. Moreover, tuition?

“I didn’t know, Valentine.”

Neris deliberately called Valentine’s nickname once again.

“I received a scholarship last year, so I returned everything I borrowed from your father. And because my grades were good last year, I decided to replace this year’s tuition with a scholarship. I returned the dormitory fee too. … I didn’t receive anything, so why do you think your words mean anything to me?”

Valentine suddenly banged on the door. A beastly roar, as if unable to control her own anger, could be heard. Neris left with a smile.

My Step-brother Is Obsessed With Me (Female-dominant)

A gentle female protagonist vs pitiful in the early stage, and a sick male protagonist in the later stage

Cheng Songer transmigrated into the body of a vicious cannon fodder female supporting character with the same name as her in a female-dominant novel.

In the original story, the cannon fodder female supporting character was inhumane, committing domestic violence, gambling excessively, being lustful, and even wanting to sell her stepbrother to a brothel for money.

As luck would have it, she just happened to transmigrate at this time.

Seeing Cheng Qingzhi biting his lip, enduring the tears in his eyes, looking pitiful, her heart softened.

She stuffed the money back into the Madam’s hand and reached out to him.

“Brother, come home with me.”
