Chapter 96

"Besides, when I said let nature take its course, I meant it for everyone . No more matrimony discussions, please . " Davis said with a polite tone .

Davis and s.h.i.+rley looked at each other and smiled . One felt that the other was amusing, while the other felt that the other one was domineering .

"Princess s.h.i.+rley, let me introduce you to my wife, Evelynn Cauldon," Davis said as he waved his hands to a direction .

Wind converged as it pushed the people aside, revealing a certain ravis.h.i.+ng figure .

Evelynn froze there, stunned by his introduction .

Just when she had gathered the courage to step in and talk to Davis, she was caught off-guard by his speech .

Davis smiled, how could he not notice her approaching him hesitantly? He even used this opportunity to shamelessly and indirectly express his desire for her .

Clamour erupted in the arena as the whole crowd"s attention was on Evelynn . Gazes of envy, jealousy, greed, and l.u.s.t were gathered on her .

Evelynn felt incredibly awkward on having the whole crowd"s attention to her .

s.h.i.+rley glanced at the voluptuous figure in front of her and admired those twin peaks, "Hmm, not bad!"

"I know right?" Davis laughed .

Evelynn blushed hard . Her face turned bright red as she thought, "Scoundrel! Why is he teasing me in front of everyone!?"

"Aren"t you happy that you managed to keep him for yourself, Miss Evelynn?" s.h.i.+rley asked, testing the waters .

"I . . . I d-don"t know . " Evelynn replied nervously, her voice meek .

"Hmm? What was that? I couldn"t hear you?" s.h.i.+rley placed her palm beside her ears .

Evelynn increased her voice as she shut her eyes, "I . . . just don"t know!"

"That decides it! Prince Davis, she clearly likes you and possibly is in love with you . I don"t know how you managed to do that, but congratulations!"

Davis was stunned, "How . . . What makes you say that!?"

Evelynn was also stunned as her thoughts were revealed . All she wanted to do was find her resolve and convey it to Davis . But questioned by s.h.i.+rley and teased by Davis, she nearly forgot what she came here for .

s.h.i.+rley grinned, "Heh! I"m the thirty-sixth Princess of the Ashton Empire and I have some sisters who are married to their love . The kind of reaction she gives, it is clear that she likes you, Prince Davis . "

Davis was utterly dumbfounded . All he heard was "I don"t know" and from that, she was able to garner a lot of information?

"What the actual f.u.c.k? Women are scary!" Davis gulped as he thought, but his gaze unconsciously turned affectionate while looking at Evelynn .

"Our Royal Father dotes on us a lot . Even though he is greedy, he is truly a good father and an emperor . Otherwise, he wouldn"t let me off this easily . " s.h.i.+rley smiled and said .

"You were born to a good family!" Davis nodded his head, quite happy for her .

"Isn"t your family the same?" She asked as she grinned .

"Yes, though that wouldn"t be the case if the rebellion didn"t happen" Davis smirked .

"Haha, aren"t you straightforward?! Just the way I like it!" She laughed out loud . Then sighed, "A pity, you are way out of my league . "

Davis fell silent, if she felt like that then he couldn"t do anything about it . She wasn"t his responsibility anyway and towards her, all he felt was a friends.h.i.+p kind of feeling, like the one he had with Ellia .

"Don"t you feel the same, Miss Evelynn?"

Suddenly Evelynn"s demeanour changed as she replied, "Feel the same? I have been stabbed by this feeling from the moment I saw him . "

Since her feelings had been found out, she felt that there was no use to being shy anymore . She felt that she should be bolder .

"So your decision to love him was after that?" s.h.i.+rley asked as he pointed at Davis .

Evelynn hurriedly denied, "After that? No! Initially, I was just like you and someway, perhaps, at some point, I started thinking about him . "

s.h.i.+rley giggled, "Even though he is still a kid?"

Evelynn was amused, she then chuckled, "He certainly doesn"t act like one . . . "

"Well, that"s true . " s.h.i.+rley looked at the two corpses near her .

"By the way, you have my grat.i.tude for killing that b.a.s.t.a.r.d . He was just way too much!" s.h.i.+rley thanked Davis as she felt that the humiliation she received earlier was avenged by him .

Davis smiled, "No problem . "

"Then, I"ll take my leave . Goodbye Prince Davis, Miss Evelynn . " s.h.i.+rley clasped her hands and walked away .

Just as she walked, she suddenly stopped and turned back, "Goodbye . . . Ellia, was it?"

Ellia who was silent the entire time was astonished . "Princess is acknowledging me?" She asked in incredulity .

s.h.i.+rley giggled, "Well you could say that . Your friend here has made me understand that there are always powerful people above you and it is not good to act arrogant all the time . "

s.h.i.+rley, Ellia and Evelynn once again turned to look at those two corpses of the emperors who were just alive an hour ago . They were once again reminded that Davis was just 10 years old, a disciple of a powerful being, and didn"t even take him a minute to take down the two emperors who were part of the continent"s strongest seven .

s.h.i.+rley laughed as she left, "Next time I see, you might even be stronger than me, hehe . "

"No . . . that . . . " Ellia tried to deny it, but no words came out of her mouth as she clenched her fists .

Davis smiled . He could see that her resolve to get stronger didn"t let her degrade herself .

He turned his face and saw s.h.i.+rley"s back . He felt a little sad that he didn"t get to see her face .

Suddenly, he noticed something and turned aside, only to see Evelynn running away .

He laughed and shook his head, "It"s not like I"m going to eat her, she must"ve been so embarra.s.sed to be running away from me . "

"Don"t you need to follow her?" Ellia asked as she pointed at the escaping Evelynn .

"Leave it, there"s no need to be forceful . Let it be . " Davis replied, his heart was full of satisfaction right now .

"Aren"t you afraid that someone will steal her away from you?" Ellia asked teasingly .

"Ohh . . . Then they will be courting death!" Davis replied with a slight grin, but his face turned weird, "When did you learn to tease? Who taught you that?"

"From a certain person who always bullies me," Ellia replied with a proud grin on her face . Now that she felt true to be his friend, she felt that she could now tease him as well .

Davis chuckled and shouted a moment later as he laughed, "Let"s get on with the final compet.i.tion!"
