Chaos Girl Rewrites the Script novel Chapter 225

[Ding—]

[Prompt: Aurelia's Bond Route — Progress 1/2.]

The robotic voice chimed in Vivienne's head right as she and Bianca landed on the ground, coming face to face with Cyril.

He had been standing right around the corner. He had seen Vivienne shove Aurelia off the wall in broad daylight.

The silence was deafening.

Bianca was overwhelmed with guilt, but knowing they couldn't both go down for this, she bravely stepped forward. "I was the one who—"

"That was a total accident," Vivienne interrupted smoothly, not missing a beat.

Bianca's mouth snapped shut. She stared at Vivienne with profound reverence. They had literally been caught red-handed, and she was still denying it? Vivi's psychological fortitude was scarier than a professional hitman's.

"An accident?" Cyril repeated softly. He let his gaze drift between the two girls before turning on his heel and walking toward the main courtyard without another word.

Bianca watched him leave, utterly confused. "Did he actually buy that?"

Vivienne couldn't help but laugh. "If you were so scared of getting caught, why were you about to confess?"

Bianca instantly puffed out her chest. "Who says I was scared? My reaction time is just a little slow, that's all."

Vivienne stopped smiling and looked at her intently. "Bianca, what went through your head when you saw me push Aurelia?"

Bianca blinked. "What do you mean? She had it coming. Nobody forced her to climb up there. Plus, it wasn't high enough to kill her."

"That's it?" Vivienne pressed. "You don't have any other questions for me?"

Bianca shook her head. "Nope." As if afraid Vivienne wouldn't believe her, she quickly elaborated. "Vivi, the second I decided to trust you, I made a promise to myself to trust everything you do. Having the ability to predict the future is an insane power, but you used it to save me. That was the exact moment I realized you are a genuinely good person. A really, really good person."

Vivienne offered a soft smile and looked away, staring up at the top of the brick wall.

The truth was, she wasn't nearly as good as Bianca thought.

If she was truly a good person, she wouldn't have just orchestrated Aurelia's downfall.

After surviving the incident with Alderwick, she knew exactly how impossible it was to tear off a societal label. To survive, you had to burn everything to the ground first.

She wasn't a saint, and she had no intention of playing savior to everyone in her path.
