Cheat Awakening

Chapter 390. Sylphy's Inquiry



"Okay, Sylphy, I have two choices for you. First, I can buy those unknown ores from you, with the price based on their unknown properties and uniqueness, which shouldn't disappoint you. However, there is a chance that you might not get their actual price, as no one can truly determine their value without conducting proper tests on them. The second choice is for you to return tomorrow.

By then, my team will have finished researching the ores, and I'll have the money prepared. How does that sound?"

Lewis's proposal didn't surprise Sylphy. She simply nodded and stood to leave. There was nothing further to be done here, Lewis seemed swamped with work and had no time to waste on her. It would be best not to disturb her any further.

"Then I won't bother you further. I'm leaving. Remember to complete my task," Sylphy said while giving The Old Man Tuchikava a deep look, before exiting the room, followed by an unseen figure who'd also enjoyed a pleasant conversation with a beautiful lady.

"Clan Leader, but how will you manage all of this? Don't forget, not only do you have to sign those papers, but you also have to return to the palace tomorrow," Elsa despite her happy mood, mercilessly poked at Lewis's sore spot after Myne left.

"Can't you see the importance of this matter, Elsa? If those ores are truly as valuable as the parchment describes, many of our plans won't be limited to mere notebooks anymore!" Lewis, who'd spent the past three hours desperately seeking an escape from paperwork, naturally wouldn't listen. He stood up from his chair and began walking towards the exit with Tuchikava.

"Then what about these reports? Without your signature, many important works will be stalled indefinitely," Pleaded Elsa, helpless. Their relationship wasn't yet at the stage where she could force him back to work under the power of her love fist. She is still just a friend and secretary, and could only give her suggestions, the final decision still depends on Lewis.

Lewis, who'd been engrossed in a lively discussion with Tuchikava, abruptly stopped. Although it was true that because of Elsa, he never took his clan work seriously, after reading those reports for a few hours, he understood that they were very important and his approval was definitely needed. After thinking for a bit, he gritted his teeth and decided to postpone it until tomorrow.

Although disobeying his mother's orders would cost him a good beating, there was no way around it. What Sylphy had given him was just too valuable, and for this, he was willing to endure a beating.

"I'll do it tomorrow. Let's push back my vacation to the day after tomorrow." After saying this, Lewis already started picturing his miserable condition but he quickly shook his head to get rid of those dangerous thoughts and exited the room.

Elsa, who was left behind, didn't know what to say. Just as she was about to follow them since she didn't have anything better to do, she suddenly noticed that her panties were completely wet, which made her feel quite uncomfortable while walking. She reached out and put her hand under her skirt, lightly touching the panties on top of her vagina.

A shiver ran down her spine, and she recalled how she felt every time Myne touched her. She hurriedly opened her storage bag and took out a book that she used to increase her imagination, as well as to see if she could get some inspiration which helped her to confess her love to Lewis. After thinking for a while, she turned around and walked into the bathroom.

"Huh? You guys came back quite soon. I thought it would be going to take a lot of time," Aisha, who was lazily reading a random book while lying on the couch, inquired confusedly, seeing Myne and Sylphy walking out of the portal. Amy, grinding herbs on the floor, paused her work and looked up curiously.

Though she hadn't interacted much with Myne due to his sudden disappearance, she and Sylphy had a good relationship, and got along well, probably because both of them were ex-princesses, and had mutual understanding between each other. So after seeing her no-so-good expression, she could tell that she was not in a good mood.

"Well, this is not an easy task that can be completed in one day, and I also have some other work to do, so I simply decided to do it early tomorrow morning," Myne, whose throat was dry from speaking continuously to Elsa, picked up the water glass from the table, gulped it down, and lay down beside Aisha.

Because the couch wasn't big enough for two people to lie down comfortably, he hugged Aisha, turned around, and positioned himself behind her while hugging her tightly. This way, at least he could lie down comfortably with Aisha in his arms, ensuring her safety so she wouldn't have to worry about falling off the couch. However, this also meant Aisha could no longer read her book or move freely.

"Huh? What's wrong, Sylphy? Why are you glaring at me in such a dangerous manner?" Aisha asked, bewildered, trying to recall if she had done anything to upset Sylphy.

Sylphy could only sigh helplessly seeing Aisha misunderstood her, and explain while trying to hold back her urge to jump on Myne and to beat him. "I'm not mad at you, but at the pervert who is hiding behind you... My dear Lord Husband, would you mind explaining why Elsa was kissing you so passionately? Forget the kiss, why on earth did you reveal yourself to her?

Don't you know her loyalty lies with Lewis? He might already know you're alive!" Her face burned red with anger as she spoke. Aisha also struggled hard to break free from Myne's embrace, wanting to join Sylphy and confront him. Unfortunately, Myne held her tight.

Seeing that the situation was heating up, Amy quickly gathered her tools and fled to the backyard. Ted and Waffle were training under the guidance of Ted's parents there. Amy didn't want to pry into their personal affairs and had no desire to get involved or watch the drama unfold, fearing it could backfire on her.

She cherished this opportunity where she could stay in such a nice family and didn't want to jeopardize it with her curiosity.

"Sigh, Sylphy you are now behaving like a child. Look, you scared Amy off. What would she think about me? Besides, you need to have some confidence in your husband. Do I look like a womanizer to you from any angle?" Myne asked with a hint of anger.

Although it was indeed his fault, but what could he do when the beautiful lady in front of him suddenly caught him off guard and started kissing him in excitement? he couldn't blast her away with his skills, right? It was only natural for him to share the joy and sorrow with someone who was about to become a relative.

"Yes, you do, and that too a big one," both Aisha and Sylphy declared simultaneously, leaving Myne completely dumbfounded. He didn't expect that his wives' understanding of him would increase to this point in just a few months.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Well, then you're both mistaken," Myne countered with a sigh. "Firstly, Sylphy, I didn't reveal myself to Elsa. She possesses a magical item that alerts her whenever someone uses a skill nearby. That's how she discovered me. As for the second matter, Sylphy, have you ever noticed the way Elsa looked at Lewis?

Tell me, what do you think Elsa desires the most?" He inquired with a playful yet confident smile that considerably calmed Sylphy's anger. Even Aisha, sensing Myne's potential innocence, sifted her attention and became intrigued by the gossip.

Although she didn't know who Elsa was, since she was related to Lewis, she might be an important figure, which made her even more interested in digging up this secret.

"Are you referring to Elsa's feelings for Lewis? If so, then except my stupid little brother, everyone in the family knows about it. Lewis achieved independence and success at a young age, while Elsa also showcased her remarkable talent and admirable personality. Mother and father never had a problem with her, and they decided to leave this matter entirely to Lewis.

Whether he wanted to marry her or not, they would not interfere."

"Mother even wanted to push this matter forward, but alas, Lewis, whom she always praised for his intelligence, finally showed his biggest weakness.

After multiple attempts to make him close to Elsa, he always disappointed her and couldn't understand even simple things regarding the relationship because he always tries to see them from a logical perspective, instead of looking for hidden meaning in her words. Eventually, Mother, seeing the lack of progress, relinquished control and let fate decide their outcome."
