Struggling as a Villain

The family was about to gather at one place after so long, to celebrate Amelia's recovery and to name the baby.

All the food was prepared by Violet and Lilia, even though Richard suggested taking the help of some chef from the headquarters who not only has experience but can cook for several people.

However, the two ladies strictly denied the help, saying that they wanted to prepare everything on their own. Violet seemed more adamant about it so Richard backed off.

Now, inside Cristina's house, the members have started to gather.

The first ones to arrive were Bella and Emily since they were on Clion, taking care of some security-related matters.

Following them were Elizabeth and Nora, who walked in.

"You came." Emily had a warm smile on her face as she welcomed the duo.

"I really didn't want to come…it was this damn elf," Elizabeth grumbled, but Emily knew that if Elizabeth really didn't want to come, no one could have convinced her, except for Ethan.

Nora was all smiles, as she said, "She also wanted to see the baby."

Elizabeth crossed her arms and looked away, however, the slight blush on her cheeks gave away her facade.

Emily smiled at the girl, before saying, "Since you came, stay for dinner."

Emily brought them to the couch to chat. Meanwhile, Bella went to the kitchen and found Lilia and Violet giving some finishing touches.

She found the nearby bowl of pasta sauce quite tempting so she picked a spoon and was about to scoop some when suddenly, Lilia pulled the bowl.

"No, you can't, my lady. The first person to eat the food should be the head of the house."

Bella groaned, "Brother doesn't follow such medieval rules."

"Oh, but I do. So please wait." Lilia smiled before she continued with her work.

Soon, Rena entered the venue, alone.

Emily raised her brows and asked, "What about Carl, Ben,, and the others?"

Rena sighed with a smile, as she informed, "They are having a camp with their old teammates."

Emily smiled helplessly, "Guess Carl and Ben couldn't leave the place, huh"

Rena nodded, "It would have been rude to leave when everyone gathered to meet them especially."

They were even inviting Rena to stay; however, naturally, Rena had to reject it since today was family time and a very important day. Today, the apple of everyone's eye would get named.

"Ah, Emily. Can you light up the candles around the room?" Cristina suddenly arrived from the back room before handing her the box.

Emily took a whiff of the scented candles, before complimenting, "You have a nice taste, Cris."

The lady smiled in response before she said goodbye and headed out of the house to bring some tomatoes, as her daughter demanded.

Emily got Rena's help in arranging the candles while Nora was helping in arranging the table mats, with Violet.

"The smell of the food is really nice." Nora praised.

Violet nodded, "I got the opportunity to make food for him after so long, so I poured all the effort into it."

Nora was about to say something when suddenly, "Hello…I am back~" Jasmine suddenly appeared inside the house, and her voice sent a chill down Elizabeth and Nora's spine.

Well, it was understandable since Jasmine was their teacher and someone who regularly scolded them.

However tonight, she wasn't in her teaching mode at all.

"Welcome, Lady Jasmine." Violet greeted the raven-haired woman before taking the gift from her hands.

She was wearing a short black skirt that exposed her white, meaty thighs and long legs. And a black shirt with two buttons undone, revealing a healthy amount of cleavage. Stay tuned for updates on My Virtual Library Empire

Emily's eyes narrowed as she asked, "We are having a family dinner here, you know…"

Jasmine grinned, "I will just let the little one know that I can be her mommy too if she wants…or maybe my master might feel tempted~" She crossed her arms and made her bountiful bust stick out more.

Emily felt annoyed just by looking at her, "I am the organizer here, so button up or leave."

Jasmin grumbled, "Che, you are no fun."

Soon, the redhead ex-Duchess entered the house, and she said, "Quite the preparation you have done." The one who greeted her was Lilia.

The brunette maid smiled softly as she said, "Just trying to make a comfortable environment for Lady Amelia and the baby."

Emily also joined the conversation and asked, "Where are those three?"

Bellarine informed them, "The little one wanted to see her Dad first before leaving, that's why Richard first went back home and will be arriving in a few moments."

Bellarine couldn't help but sigh in content remembering how the little one was crying for Richard on the phone.

"Well, the food is prepared. Should I bring it to the table?"

Bellarine nodded, "Yes, please. I am starving."

Cristina soon joined and said, "Lili, have you prepared the gift?"

Lilia nodded, "Yes, I did. What about you, Lady Bellarine? I hope you have brought something for them."

Bellarine grinned as she pulled a small box from her blazer pocket before saying, "Don't underestimate this grandma. I am always prepared."

"What is in there?" Emily asked; she was a bit nervous about her own gift, which might not be that good…that's why she was asking everyone what they brought so she might change her gift accordingly.

However, "Not telling. Wait for them to-ah, they are already here." Bellarine spoke as she turned towards the entrance, and indeed, a pair walked inside the house with a little princess in Richard's arms.

"Did we make you all wait?" Amelia asked with an apologetic smile; however, even if someone had any complaints, looking at the cute little one erased all the frustration.

Because of her unnatural origin, in just ten days, the little one was looking like a year old, with her curly red hair flowing down her cute little head and her adorable fingers holding her father's shirt.

Those amber red eyes looked around the place, identifying the familiar faces..

"Come on, say hi to them," Richard whispered to her before the baby looked at her father before looking back at the people.

In the end, she just hugged her father's neck and hid her face.

"Awwwwww" A unified voice erupted at once, seeing the little one being shy. The most shocking part is that even Elizabeth wasn't immune to the cuteness.
