Chapter 14
‘Today is the day I meet Emmett!’
As soon as she got off the carriage, the excited Liv strode off.
Hildegard had gone to volunteer today, so Liv was alone. Instead, she had heard that Emmett would also be attending the Heller family’s banquet that she was going to today, so Liv was thrilled.
Screech.
But the moment she opened the door to the banquet hall, Liv flinched at the heavy, sinking atmosphere. As soon as Liv entered, everyone shut their mouths. For a moment, it felt like an invisible wall was erected in front of Liv, and she even contemplated running away for a while.
After a while, as if that silence was a lie, the people inside the banquet hall began to chatter noisily among themselves again. However, they didn’t give Liv even a single glance.
‘What was this called? Transparent, transparent...’
They’re treating you as a transparent person.
They seemed to be trying to treat Liv as a transparent person. No matter how they provoked her, Liv seemed calm and even stuck close to a powerful person like Duke Lartman, so this time they decided to bully her by ignoring her. In fact, compared to putting a rat on her seat or surrounding her and pouring out bad words, being ignored seemed like nothing.
But the problem was that Liv...
“Ugh...”
Liv groaned as she felt completely cut off from people and left alone in this world. She hated being isolated from people terribly.
