My younger sister was born after me.
Shouldn’t the order be respected…?
I am the first, and she is the second—this is the established order, even if the heavens and earth were to be turned upside down.
It is a sacred order that must never be overturned.
Yet, yet, that girl.
She went to the border lord without any hesitation…
Moreover, he was my fiancé.
Now I can’t walk outside the house without feeling embarrassed.
I have been labeled as a foolish woman who has been outdone by her younger sister, and a pitiful woman whose fiancé was taken by her younger sister.
Yes, yes. I did indeed command her to take my place, saying that she hated bugs and didn’t want to marry into the borderlands.
Because that girl always has that annoying look on her face, as if she can do everything.
It has always been like this.
She would fix things I had discarded with a smug look, acting as if I were an incompetent woman who doesn’t take care of things.
She would act superior because of her slightly better magical grades.
I should not be allowed to fall behind that girl.
Insensitive Sylvia took everything that was mine, everything I wanted, and was the worst younger sister.
So I couldn’t forgive her.
I wanted to make her suffer.
I had planned to go to the border lord, make unreasonable demands, be rejected, and then walk past her as she turned blue from his scolding, determined to marry him myself—
Why did Sylvia end up marrying the border lord?
The border lord is also to blame.
To so easily betray and abandon a long-time fiancée with just a few words from Sylvia is heartless, isn’t it?
"That’s too much…"
"Hey, Isabella. Are you crying? Is it about Fernando?"
At the party, I felt miserable and couldn’t help but shed tears.
Prince Alvin, the second prince, appeared.
Prince Alvin was the border lord’s childhood friend, and I had been introduced as the border lord’s fiancée.
Prince Alvin looked at me with concern.
Seeing him like that, I couldn’t stop myself.
"My younger sister took the border lord from me. I always thought she would take everything that was mine, but I never imagined she would take my fiancé too."
I told Prince Alvin the whole story, even though I was somewhat self-deprecating.
He put his arm around my shoulder and listened to me with genuine concern.
"I can’t believe Fernando would betray you. I wouldn’t let a beautiful and talented woman like you go."
"Prince Alvin… How kind. Even if it’s a lie, it makes me feel better."
"Really. If you weren’t my best friend’s fiancée, I would have wanted to marry you. Well, now I’m engaged too, so it’s a shame."
Prince Alvin patted my head and smiled gently.
What is he talking about? If he had broken up with the border lord sooner, it would have been better…
I remember, Prince Alvin was engaged to Princess Laila, the third princess of the Nartoria Kingdom.
"But your younger sister, Sylvia, right? I heard she had a bad habit, but I didn’t know it was this bad."
"Yes, that girl always takes everything that is mine."
"Poor you… Alright, I understand! I’ll give those shameless two a piece of my mind! Fernando, you made my love cry! I won’t forgive you!"
Prince Alvin said he would get angry for me.
Haha, if the prince scolds them, I might feel a bit better.
Sylvia, border lord, you will receive the punishment for making me look bad—
Of course, the foolish prince appears.
