Why Should I Stop Being a Villain

"I guess you're right," Helena replied, but her face remained calm.

"But you are forgetting that the promise was between the Greville and Hargrave," Helena said as she looked at Casie.

"And he is my grandson. What if I say I will make him the heir of the Raven family?" Helena said, looking at Casie.

Helena's words made the whole table silent.

Deciding on changing the heir of the family, Helena had the power to do so, as Sylvie was the only daughter of the Raven family.

"After all, he has an affinity with the Black Element, just like me," Helena said, looking at Casie.

Casie clenched her fist but her facial expressions remained the same.

She hadn't expected Helena Raven to use the fact that Asher carried the blood of the Raven family to break the promise between the Hargrave and Greville families.

Casie was about to say something, but she looked into Helena's eyes and got a bit nervous.

However, she relaxed as she had already achieved her target, and it was fine if she couldn't push the Greville into the corner anymore.

Nobody knew why Casie would speak to Helena Raven like this.

Even Xarax Hargrave, the Seat Holder of the Hargrave Family, despite being an SSS Rank, didn't act arrogant in front of Helena.

Casie stood up as everyone looked at her.

"Well, I only came here to talk about this, but I need to go back," she said, maintaining her smile as she looked at Sylvie in particular.

"Take care, Lady Hargrave," a few of them told Casie as she left the gathering early on.

'What is she planning,' Sylvie thought, as she didn't expect Casie would leave like this.

"By the way, the heir of the Greville family is still not engaged," one of the women spoke out.

"Yeah, there are many good candidates here, Lady Greville," the Lady of the William family spoke.

Suddenly, the whole conversation shifted towards Asher, as many women there became interested.

After all, Asher was now considered someone even more talented than Ivar Greville.

"Well, I will let him decide his future," Sylvie ended the conversation before anyone could take it further.

Sylvie was well aware why they wanted to connect with the Greville family. Right now, the Grevilles were considered the strongest family, with Arthur, who had finally reached SS Rank.

No matter how many enemies they had, Sylvie knew that these people would not think twice before extending their hands to become allies with them.

But unlike this gathering, the men's gathering was getting a bit heated as each Family Head wanted to maintain their pride over the others.

"I don't mean it in a disrespectful way," the Neville family head said as he looked at Kamden Whiteheart.

They were talking about the recent developments when the issue about the vault being breached came up.

That was when the Neville Family Head made the comment about it being the Whiteheart Family's fault.

"Well, I would worry about other things if I were you," Kamden replied.

Arthur was enjoying the back and forth between these two, as he noticed that Alexander Astaria glanced towards his direction.

'Is he still holding a grudge?' Arthur speculated.

But he didn't care much as the Astaria family were not strong enough to trouble him anyway.

"By the way, I heard about your son defeating the Cranston Family's second son," the Neville head spoke as he looked at Arthur.

"He probably defeated your son too," Arthur replied, making a few men hold back their laughter.

"It was a spar," the Cranston Family Head spoke.

"If you count a spar as a win, then I could care less about your opinion," he said, looking at the Neville head, but the message was meant for Arthur.

At this time, on the second floor where the twins were staying, Nate had also come to join them.

"Should we go to the first floor?" Livia asked Lucas.

"Ah, but we can go after Uncle and Aunt come back," Lucas replied, but Livia got a bit gloomy.

"Can we go?" Lucas asked, looking at Nate.

"Umm, we can go. There shouldn't be any problem," Nate replied as he looked at Lucas.

As far as Nate knew, nobody would harm them at the gala, as it was against the rules.

"So can we go?" Livia asked Lucas excitedly.

"Okay," Lucas replied.

As Sylvie and Arthur had told them that they could visit the first floor, he agreed to Livia's idea.

Nate pressed the device on the table, and a servant entered.

"Can you guide us to the first floor?" Nate asked, and the servant nodded.I think you should take a look at

"Let's go," Nate said as he jumped out of the big couch.

Livia and Lucas did the same as they started following the servant.

But as the three of them were moving, they went further towards the center, and at that moment, Lucas looked at a woman wearing a crimson dress staring at them.

"Are you both Ivar's children?" Casie asked as she walked towards the three of them.

Her voice made the three of them stop, as Nate looked at Casie but he didn't recognize her.

"Yeah," Livia replied confidently, but she was a bit affected by the heavy perfume that was present on Casie.

Casie's face changed a bit, but it was only for a brief moment.

"Do you want something?" Lucas asked as he stepped forward to look up at Casie.

Casie's eyes changed a bit as she looked at Lucas, who looked a lot like a young Ivar.

"What would I want from lowborns?" Casie said as she looked at Livia.

Nate frowned as he didn't like this woman who approached them first. But he looked at Lucas and Livia and both of them were calm.

They had heard worse things so Casie's words didn't affect them.

"Who even are you?" Nate asked as he looked at Casie.

'I will tell Mom about this woman,' Nate thought in his head.

"Well, I was the fiancee of their father," Casie replied. Nate thought a bit as he remembered hearing about someone called Casie Hargrave who was engaged to Ivar.

But Livia got confused, and so did Lucas, but he didn't show it.

"Oh, is that Lady Casie?" A few women that were not attending the gathering came towards Casie.

"Tsk, why did the Greville bring such children here?" One of them spoke out loud enough that the twins could hear her.

"By the way, it's an honor to meet the Young Lady of the Hargrave Family," the women greeted Casie.

Livia got a bit angry but she controlled herself. Lucas didn't show a single response.

Unlike other children their age who would feel intimidated by the presence of these adults, Lucas and Livia were a lot different.

"Hey, let's go," Nate told Lucas.

Casie saw the twins leave, focusing on Livia the most.

'I wonder if I would feel better if I kill her right now,' Casie thought as her eyes shone.

When Casie first saw the twins, the only thought in her head was to erase their existence.

But she didn't act on her thought. After all, she was aware of an SSS Rank Hunter that was watching over them.

'I will get a lot of chances later on,' Casie thought as she turned to talk with the ladies who came towards her.

There was still a lot of time, she could meet them again after all; the Kalvas Gala was meant to last four days.

'They are doing better than I thought,' Nathan thought as he noticed Lucas and Livia not getting scared of their interactions with such situations.

As they grew up, they would face even more people pointing at them. These small interactions would help the two of them learn.

"Was she really the fiancée of my father?" Lucas asked Nate,

"Ah, I don't know much about that time," Nate replied.

"But I heard Mom say in the mansion that your father was engaged to that woman without much choice," Nate said.

"But I don't know the full details, so I might be wrong," Nate added.

At the Mansion Soran,

"Clear the path, and make sure no surveillance is present on the path," Emmy ordered her team through her communication device.

"We will be moving in 20 minutes," Emmy said as she looked at the mansion.

She had made sure that Alyssa's eyes and hair were disguised and she wore a few artifacts, but she wasn't sure about what Asher was doing.

Inside the Mansion,

Asher looked at the information that Tom was showing him.

"Do I still need to monitor these places?" Tom asked Asher.

"Yes, and relay it to me if you see any sort of changes," Asher said as he looked at the views of five different locations in the world.

Tom didn't know why Asher had him watch these specific areas from the start, but now he didn't think too hard about it.

Asher stood up as he needed to get dressed as well.

After all, he couldn't wear the same suit he was wearing right now.
