A Sweet Girl Won't Be Fooled By The Villainess - [Vol. 3] Chapter 56

[Vol. 3] Chapter 56: Should I leave then?

Ifia originally asked casually, just to shift attention. But when the question actually left her lips, she started worrying!

While from all perspectives, Prince Carloy’s disappearance had nothing to do with them, she feared that some unreasonable people might think otherwise. What if there were individuals who disliked the Barlen family or had ill intentions towards Amelia? That would be troublesome!

As Ifia pondered over these thoughts, her facial expressions were transparent, easily revealing her inner concerns. Unable to resist, Amelia raised her hand and lightly pinched Ifia’s soft cheek.

The slight pain brought Ifia back to her senses, and she looked up at Amelia with a hint of reproach in her black eyes—like an offended cat not allowing anyone to touch it.

However…

Eyes widened in anger like this didn’t make people back off. Instead, it made them want to tease more!

Truly adorable!

Amelia sighed softly and decided to release Ifia before the latter unleashed her claws in anger. With a smiling expression, she said, “Cursing the death of a royal family member privately might land you in prison, you know~”

Although she spoke as such, Amelia’s facial expression remained relaxed. Clearly, she didn’t regard the Sith Empire royal family highly.

What an oppressive rule!!!

Ifia, finding this situation speechless, wrinkled her nose, and her dark eyes couldn’t stay still. After thinking of something, she took the initiative to approach and suddenly lifted her hand to wrap around Amelia’s arm.

With a sly smile on her face, it was evident that Ifia was harboring mischievous intentions.

Immediately, she exaggeratedly exclaimed, “Oh my, my good friend Amelia is actually going to send me to prison. This is truly heartbreaking. Should I leave then?”

After saying this, Ifia, playing the role of a drama queen, dramatically let go and turned around with an appearance of being heartbroken.

Before she could take a few steps, a pair of arms from behind embraced her slender waist, lifting Ifia off the ground. Amelia, despite her strength, displayed gentle and delicate movements, ensuring Ifia felt comfortable.

Soon, Ifia was like a little fluffy ball, rolling directly into Amelia’s arms. Amelia’s hand playfully tickled her waist, causing ticklish sensations. In almost no time, Ifia couldn’t keep up the act anymore, laughing uncontrollably in Amelia’s arms, and quickly pleaded for mercy.

Amelia remained unmoved and, in the end, Ifia took the initiative to tiptoe. After a series of kisses, she finally succeeded in begging for mercy.

A true example of being both playful and easy to tease.

After the laughter subsided, Amelia continued walking with Ifia. Countless small flowers bloomed on the vines around them, and as the wind blew, some petals gently fell to the ground, creating a sensation as if they had entered a beautiful fairy-tale world.

At this moment, Amelia officially responded to the earlier conversation, “Don’t worry, whether Prince Carloy is alive or dead, it doesn’t affect me. Ifia, in fact, the Barlen family can immediately annul the engagement with the royal family.”

“No, Amelia, if you unilaterally annul the engagement, it will cost a significant amount of money!”

Ifia firmly shook her head, rejecting the proposal. She knew that if Amelia unilaterally annulled the engagement, the Barlen family would have to pay a substantial amount to the royal family, and the majority would likely be transferred to Prince Carloy’s account.

Why should they do such a loss-making deal?!

With this in mind, Ifia thought that it might be better if Prince Carloy just died. At least, they wouldn’t have to pay any money.

Amelia, aware that Ifia was a bit of a money enthusiast, found her response not surprising. However, she had never cared about these things before encountering Ifia.

However, now Amelia suddenly cared!

The engagement with Carloy felt like a fishbone stuck in her throat, causing discomfort. Unlike Ifia, who could maintain a tough exterior even in difficult situations, Amelia had never experienced being in love. With no serious companions around to impart their experiences, she had to fumble through on her own.

So, the ancient relic, who had spent tens of thousands of years in lovelessness, began stumbling through the intricacies of relationships, aside from devouring souls and causing havoc.

If it were only about carnal desires, it would be simple – just spend countless nights together in bed until it became routine.

But Amelia didn’t want to treat Ifia in such a manner. Instead, she wanted to cherish and care for her.

Amelia enjoyed having Ifia around, chatting and laughing, finding even her angry expressions adorable. Especially when Ifia attempted mischief and ended up failing in a clumsy manner.

In any case, once Ifia plucked at her heartstrings, Amelia’s calmness vanished. Through the days and nights of this new journey and intimate contact, Amelia felt a sense of impending enlightenment, as if she was about to dispel the clouds.

Now, without guidance, Amelia knew to make a commitment.

“Maybe we don’t need to pay any money. As long as I express my intention to become the next heir and compete for it, the engagement between Carloy and me will be automatically canceled.”

As she spoke, Amelia stared at Ifia, and her purple eyes sparkled like gemstones. The rest of the conversation didn’t need words, it was all written on that beautiful face.

With a look of “I will fight for you,” Amelia appeared charming and irresistibly appealing. For a moment, the air seemed to be filled with a sweet aroma, like the scent of rich and exquisite wine, leaving people feeling a bit dizzy.

About to turn into a fool!!!

After locking eyes for a while, Ifia couldn’t resist it. She quickly turned her head, avoiding the dizzying gaze. Feeling inexplicably nervous, she stammered, “Amelia, you… you should make decisions for yourself. Don’t let other things disrupt your path.”

Recovering her composure, Ifia’s tone became more determined. “If you don’t like it, then don’t do it! There’s always a way to annul the engagement. Of course, if you’ve already planned for it, that’s even better.”

As Ifia spoke, she suddenly became a bit awkward, but she forced herself to look at Amelia. Lifting her gaze, she saw Amelia looking at her with a gentle smile, purple eyes filled with indulgence, as if saying, “I’ll follow your lead.”

At this moment, it felt like their hearts were connected, causing Ifia’s heart to uncontrollably race. Amelia’s beautiful eyes seemed like a hook, leaving Ifia feeling disoriented, and even her usually stubborn mouth was about to be pried open!

Blushing, Ifia raised her hand to cover her face in embarrassment. In a muffled voice that seeped through her fingers, she said, “I’ll always stand by your side and cheer you on!”

Ah, why was she acting so shy and awkward? She was just offering encouragement. It almost felt like she was making wedding vows on the spot…

This was getting too absurd.

However, observing Amelia’s performance, Ifia thought that when the engagement was truly annulled, maybe she could loosen up a bit and transform their sincere friendship a tiny bit?
