Chapter 1052: Ill Show You How Rogue I Am (1/2)
Davis, Evelynn, and Nadia flew in the skies as their clothes gently fluttered. They were returning to the Purple Guest Palace after they left the Verdant Alstreim Treasure House.
”Husband-”
”Now, now... don't thank me for purchasing that Poison Essence for you. That would make us seem like we are distant.” Davis chuckled.
Evelynn abruptly opened her mouth but got interrupted. She couldn't help but grin with a giggle.
”Then, I'll gladly be spoiled by Husband.”
”What's there to spoiled? I bought you some ugly essences that you have to absorb and digest. Is that something a man would buy his woman?”
Evelynn shook her head, ”Please don't twist it and say that this is nothing...”
She knew that fifty Peak-Level Spirit Stones wasn't worth on her.
Davis narrowed his brows before he reached out his hand with a lewd smile, ”But if you insist...”
Evelynn slapped his palm away with the back of her dainty hand, ”You have to wait till we return to 'spoil' me...”
She rolled her eyes, but that came off as seductive instead.
”Oh my...” Davis's mouth went agape as he grinned, ”Someone is getting bold!”
Evelynn felt like hugging him with all her strength, but since they were out to open in the skies, she was too shy to do anything intimate.
After a few seconds of secretly feeling happy, Evelynn moved her lips.
”Husband, can I know why you decided to give that pill to that person? Is it because of those Poison Essences?”
”Are you dissatisfied?” Davis smiled.
”No, as I believe that it is because of the Poison Essences, or there's a deep reason behind it.”
Davis chuckled, ”Haha, there's no deep reason behind it, and it is not for the Poison Essences either.”
”Then, why?”
Davis hesitated for a second before he answered, ”Just a promise that I gave to Nora Alstreim to get her to kowtow to mother at that time.”
”I see... but aren't those people our enemies?” Evelynn didn't understand.
When had her husband ever treated enemies with favor?
”They are... and that pill is for Elise Alstreim. If Elise Alstreim manages breakthrough into Martial Master Stage, it still won't make a difference as she is already a Peak-Level Law Sea Stage Expert. She still poses the same amount of threat to us.”
”But-”
”Or do you want to go back on my words for no valid reason, knowing that they were enemies when I gave my word to Nora Alstreim?”
”I don't! Upholding and staying true to the words one has given is more important than measly benefits.” Evelynn replied with heartfelt emotions.
She had just understood about that on a soul level, consequently making a breakthrough to High-Level Young Soul Stage.
”That's right. Don't look at measly benefits. Keep your soul free of heart demons by never going back on your words. Your guilt and regret would bind your soul, and that ultimately be your own undoing.”
”Yes!” Evelynn obediently echoed like a student. In reality, she was still a student to him in Soul Forging Cultivation.
However, she became a bit confused as she thought about another matter. She initially had this doubt but never had the opportunity to ask.
”Husband, why did you make the list you gave to Jaisi Alstreim public? Isn't it disadvantageous to us since people would know what we want to possess, thereby giving them an opportunity to-”
Davis chuckled a bit, ”Evelynn, your worries are on point.”
