Considering the younger brother, it was unprecedented for the older brother to shout so loudly. Evelia’s eyes, which were already large, grew even wider.
“What did you say in response!!”
“It’s not the usual ‘Sure!’ right?!”
Arkan lifted Evelia up by the waist with both hands.
Thanks to that, the still petite Evelia’s eyes met Arkan’s at the same level.
“Ehehe.”
Evelia laughed awkwardly, enjoying being lifted high by her brother, but seeing her innocent laugh, the brothers’ faces turned pale.
“Grab your sword, Cedric.”
“Dare he asks our baby to be…his…wife……”
“A child who still has baby hair.”
“Just a prince of the empire……!”
“To propose in our absence. It’s despicable.”
“Ever since I saw his red head……! A proposal!”
Meanwhile, Adniel had completely forgotten that he had asked Evelia to ‘become his wife’ after seeing her beat a snake.
In the timid Adniel’s eyes, the bold Evelia looked cool, and that was all there was to it.
Therefore, he didn’t seriously want to send a proposal to the emperor, or really want to marry Evelia.
However, the two brothers didn’t know this. They had enough reason to retaliate just because he dared to utter the taboo in front of their precious younger sister.
On the other hand, Elysia ignored the maids’ attempts to stop her and brought the cream soup that Evelia loved. Then she heard the thunderboltlike news.
“A proposal?!”
The soup wasn’t important now. Elysia hastily put the bowl down and hurried towards her daughter. The maids quickly wiped up the soup that had splashed everywhere.
“A proposal, to our Eve? Who?”
“The Prince of Harventa!”
Cedric answered with a red face.
“Oh, my! The world!”
Arkan watched his mother anxiously. His mother had always been too generous with Evelia’s friends.
‘What if she says it’s okay.’
Indeed, a prince of Harventa was a match that many young ladies could not get, so if by any chance she thought positively……
‘As our baby grows, she’ll have more and more encounters with the prince… if they really get engaged, to Harventa……’
“Is that brat still not in his right mind?”
“……Are you…going to leave…mother?”
“That woman has never known her place. I’ve saved her from being stabbed in the back by a demon several times, and now she dares to look down on my daughter?”
Elysia spouted vulgar words in her unique refined tone. She had no intention of arbitrarily depriving her daughter of her choices now that she was grown up. But now it wasn’t possible. Absolutely not.
What does a proposal mean to such a young girl?
“Mother… We’re talking about the prince of Harventa, not the emperor.”
“So! What can you expect from a son of such a woman?”
This was the first time they had seen their mother so angry.
“We should have wiped out Harventa when we were hunting the demons.”
Arkan and Cedric exchanged glances.
“We should have cut off all the redhaired people of the Harventa royal family, thinking they were demons.”
“Choke!”
Fervently nibbling at the chocolate lodged in the cookie as a human, Enlir abruptly tossed the cookie aside and hurriedly transformed into a dragon.
“I… I am not a demon! I am a dragon!”
“Who said what?”
While watching the young dragon, who was desperately trying to hide his red fur with his wings and burrowed behind Evelia, Elysia sighed in puzzlement.
“If he knew about this, he wouldn’t stay still.”
The Male lead Always Seduces Her with His Beauty (Matriarchy)
Xin Jiao Zhou is the leader of the world’s premier sect. She has just experienced betrayal from all sides, was poisoned in an assassination attempt, and faced death squad attacks while the poison was taking effect. After finally clearing out the scum from her sect, she was drugged again while trying to detoxify.
After waking up from a night of unconsciousness, she gained a “beautiful and kind-hearted” husband.
Xin Jiao Zhou: “???”
He fell ill.
She came to see him, bringing breakfast.
As she put down the breakfast and was about to leave, his hand slipped while holding the spoon. “Clank!”
She turned around upon hearing the noise.
He looked up at her, his eyebrows drooping: “My hand… has no strength.”
“Shall I… feed you?” she asked tentatively.
He opened his mouth cheerfully: “Ah—”
Thinking she was drowning, he jumped in without hesitation to save her, but nearly drowned himself. In the end, it was she who swam over to rescue him, giving him air underwater.
After emerging from the water, his ear tips turned red. He lightly brushed his cheek, tucking his sideburns behind his ear, revealing delicate, pink-tinged ear tips. He lowered his gaze, too embarrassed to look at her.
Xin Jiao Zhou: He’s truly beautiful, kind-hearted, and adorable.
A certain someone when disciplining subordinates behind the scenes: “If they don’t obey, just kill them.”
What’s that? She might already have someone she cares about in her heart? A certain someone: Find out who it is, kill them, and then there won’t be anyone.
What? She met a man by the riverside? What? That man even hurt her? A certain someone: Whichever hand hurt her, chop off his entire arm.
