Chapter 74
Liv, holding Hildegard’s hand tightly, entered the banquet hall and looked around. Although there was no need to wait for Emmett, who had said he couldn’t come to the banquet today, looking around to see who had come was a habit for Liv, who liked people. Unlike usual, there was anxiety in Liv’s eyes as she surveyed the banquet hall.
At that moment, a hand was placed on Liv’s shoulder.
“Liv, it’s been a while?”
At the familiar voice, the color drained from Liv’s face. Liv turned her head, hoping it wasn’t who she thought it was, but...
“Kreppelin.”
It was indeed the man Liv knew. The one who had sent her a marriage proposal just a few days ago!
“Take your hand off.”
Hildegard reacted before Liv. She spoke in an unusually stern tone, but Kreppelin didn’t even blink.
“I’m in the middle of talking with the Saintess’s sister.”
Gert Kreppelin. The only son of the Kreppelin Viscount family.
While it had mainly been noble young ladies who had bullied Liv until now, and Liv had only been concerned about them, it wasn’t that Liv had no relationships with noble young men.
Gert Kreppelin had been following Liv around tirelessly since the day she first debuted in society. When Liv was still a Saintess, he maintained a certain level of etiquette, but after Liv was revealed as a fake Saintess, his obsession changed in a chilling way. Kreppelin even seemed to rejoice that Liv had been demoted to the position of a fake Saintess. After Liv distanced herself from Emmett, he spread unfavorable rumors about Liv and kept trying to drag her to secluded places. He was also one of the people who angered the gods the most.
