"Did you reject the young Marquis Alyssa?"

I slowly place back my fork on the table, wipe my face with some napkins, and stare at my father who's looking at me sternly while his hands are busy slicing the steak on his plate

"What's wrong with my rejection of the Marquis's father? It's not like he asked for my hand or anything"I stated to him as he sighed

"That would've been a good opportunity for you to be matched Alyssa," he told me as I smiled lightly

"Why? Because it's difficult for someone like me to have a good marriage with someone with a high status. Am I right father?"I asked him as he looked at me in disbelief

Did they think that I'm still the old Alyssa?

Marriage?

They want me to get married so that they won't have to take responsibility for me anymore?

To be responsible to the person who brought dishonor in the Silverton Duchy?

"Alyssa! This is for your good"

Own Good?

How absurd .....

"Really? My good or yours? I'll say this now Father...I won't get married and that's final"I declared as he sighed loudly

I know that they won't believe it but I still want to say it...

If I don't say it now, they will even try to arrange me from families in the neighboring Kingdom or rather some low-status family

Is not like I cared.

But still .....

They should have at least slightly cared for their daughter. Who was being disrespected by the public

Being disrespected by the maids or slaves.

The daughter who was looked down upon of ...

"You've gotten quite bold lately Alyssa" Hearing his words I smiled lightly before I could talk and replied Father, sister beat me to it

"Alyssa, it's a common tradition that every lady must be wed, you cannot simply declare you can't marry," she told me as I rolled my eyes at her words that is obvious that she wanted me to get married in a hurry

So that she can have his highness in her grasp fully because I'm not available anymore

"That's only for ladies like you sister Amelia, but for someone like me? I would rather hide and live by myself all alone rather than be mocked"I stated and ate the last piece of my meat

"Father, Alyssa is simply just young she'll understand this tradition when she gets old, don't stress it please" I looked at her in disbelief while she said those words to father

They won't know what hell I'll encounter when I tangle up with the Young Marquis

"I suppose you're right Amelia, Alyssa is simply young... she'll understand it when she grows older" Father stated as I shook my head

Marry?

I won't get married, that's the principle that I've followed ever since I lived on Earth

Marriage and love is nothing but a nuisance in my life

Marriages and love are only for those who are weak-minded

"I've had enough...I better go out first, Father"I stated as I stood up from my seat Father nodded at me

"Sure2x make sure to rest and think about it Alyssa, your not young anymore it's time for you to take care of your future," he told me in a serious tone which only I ignored

Future?

How about worrying about their future?

If the future is the one they wanted, I know what most likely will happen to them or everyone in this kingdom except for those extra beings

Extra beings like me...

"They should care for themselves if they had time to care for me"I muttered as I walked back to my room

Because out of all the people living in this world, I'm the one who knows what will happen in the future

The heroine should arrive earlier than the original story

To put on a leash on the Prince's neck, because that's their fate...and nothing will change that

As for my case, the original Alyssa had died while I occupied her body, Even though she died earlier than expected still

Because my identity has already been caused by Fate an abnormal twist

Because my death is the start of the protagonists' love story.

Why should I die for the sake of their happiness?

Isn't that a bit unfair?

"Young Lady Alyssa, a letter has arrived for you"I turned to look and saw one of the family's maids

She is someone I didn't see in the main house ...she must be someone from the branch of the family

"Who's it from?"I ask as she hands me the letter, seeing the family's stamp

"Your Grandfather wants to meet you, and this is an invitation to dine with him in the West Wing," she said as I furrowed my brow

"I will think about it, "I said as she nodded and bowed at me as I went inside my room

Grandfather?

The previous head?

Why would he want to meet me?
