A Sweet Girl Won't Be Fooled By The Villainess - [Vol. 6] Chapter 24
[Vol. 6] Chapter 24: A Bit Anxious
Ifia was originally feeling quite pleased with herself, thinking her water-carrying skills were superb. But unexpectedly, her little secret was exposed, leaving her feeling utterly exposed and freezing cold.
It almost took her breath away.
Why did this have to come up now?!
Especially in front of this jealousy demon…
Ifia immediately stole a glance at Amelia, only to see her previously smiling lips slowly turn into a frown, her crimson eyes becoming sharp once again.
An invisible pressure instantly descended.
Amelia didn’t confront Ifia directly but instead lowered her gaze to the little demon standing nearby.
Compared to her deliberate restraint in not intimidating Ifia, her attitude towards the two little demons was uncompromising, despite Cheryl and Daryl having Amelia’s genes, the dominance brought by the superior demon status remained unchallenged.
The two little demons gritted their teeth, unwilling to yield at this moment. Black magic quickly surged around them, shielding them from the threat of the greater demon.
Externally, the little ones still tried to maintain an innocent and happy facade, but to Amelia’s eyes, it was a glaring mockery.
A storm brewed between the three demons, and Ifia, standing by, was unaware, only noticing their silent standoff and feeling uneasy about it.
Thinking about how her daughters were only a few months old and yet now displayed such stubbornness in wanting to challenge Amelia, Ifia couldn’t help but feel a mix of amusement and exasperation.
It seems like the children’s rebellious phase has come too quickly.
So, Ifia stepped forward a few steps, pulling the two little ones behind her. Then she looked directly at Amelia and spoke in a relaxed tone.
“The little ones are too young to remember much. There are indeed mermaids in this area, but I’m not familiar with them. However, because of running a restaurant, I often have special creatures come to me for ingredient exchanges. Among them are mermaids.”
Ifia’s detailed explanation successfully extinguished half of the flames. Amelia didn’t believe that there was nothing at all, especially since those two little demons would mention it deliberately.
Those who coveted her Ifia should all perish!
But upon seeing their demon mother unhappy, the two little demons were overjoyed…
As for whether Saina, the mermaid, would face retaliation or not, did it matter to them?
If she died, she died.
At most, after the demon mother killed Saina, they would pretend to shed a few tears.
It could make their mom hate the demon mother even more, successfully manipulating their relationship.
Cheryl and Daryl inherited the demon’s innate coldness and cruelty, so they lacked empathy. They only pursued success at any cost, and they had already put on their disguises early on to deceive their mom.
Therefore, Amelia could tell at a glance that they were of the same kind, so she disliked them even more. Only Ifia, foolishly, was still thinking about how to promote relations between the two sides.
“Ifia, you know, I only want to hear the truth,” Amelia said, shifting her gaze from the two little demons to Ifia.
In an instant, the pressure was on Ifia, leaving her feeling conflicted.
Tell the truth!
Amelia, the jealous demon, would definitely explode on the spot.
Don’t tell the truth.
If the lies were found out later, the situation would definitely worsen.
After much deliberation, Ifia decided to tell the truth! Through last night’s “interrogation,” she had finally managed to restore the relationship between the two sides, and she didn’t dare to gamble.
If she made a wrong move, all her previous efforts would be in vain!
Given the choice between Amelia’s gentleness and her wrath, she would certainly choose the former!
With these thoughts in mind, Ifia silently organized her words before continuing, “Well, it’s true that a mermaid expressed her affection for me and wanted to pursue me…”
Ifia had already tried her best to dampen Saina’s enthusiasm.
However, with just a few words, the effect was astonishing.
Amelia’s red eyes deepened, and a sudden smile curved her otherwise expressionless face. It was a half-smile, half-smirk that sent shivers down one’s spine!!!
It was very much like the demeanor of a villainous boss about to stir up trouble.
Seeing this, Ifia disregarded everything else and quickly stepped forward, rushing straight to Amelia. Then, she gave her a tight bear hug, directly embracing her.
As Amelia lowered her gaze, a gentle breeze swept by, causing her beautiful crimson eyes to sparkle with scattered light, even more dazzling than the crimson glow of the sky. Several strands of silver hair hung in front of her chest, perfectly aligned with Ifia’s embrace, causing a tingling sensation.
“Amelia, you know how much I love you. How could I possibly accept someone else? So, every time that mermaid confesses her feelings, I simply reject her outright and make it clear that I already have a partner…”
“The last time I saw the mermaid was when I brought our children with me to collect seafood at the seaside, just to make her give up completely. Amelia, please trust me. I love you more than words can express.”
After saying this, and seeing Amelia still pursing her lips, without saying a word, Ifia started to feel a bit panicked.
Then, throwing caution to the wind, she rubbed against Amelia’s chest and continued, “I even have children now, so I definitely won’t have any other thoughts. Besides, my Amelia is so beautiful, why would I need to look for someone else? You are the best thing that ever happened to me.”
She gave a subtly compliment.
Ifia nervously stole a glance at Amelia, unsure of the effect of her words.
Although she knew Amelia wouldn’t lay a hand on her, causing the mermaid Saina’s death because of her would be an undeserved calamity…
After all, apart from always saying some cheesy and greasy words, Saina hadn’t done anything else. And she couldn’t blame the little ones for bringing it up suddenly. After all, they were still children.
So, Ifia could only silently pray in her heart, hoping to get through this smoothly.
Upon hearing Ifia’s ‘declaration’, Amelia couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow.
She was not angry at Ifia because she knew her Ifia would never betray her.
She was angry because someone had the audacity to pursue her Ifia, but now she was calmed by Ifia’s words.
Meanwhile, the two little demons, Cheryl and Daryl, had sullen faces.
They were very unhappy.
Originally, they wanted to make trouble for their demon mother and provoke her into doing something bad, so they could manipulate things from behind the scenes.
Who knew they had done all this in vain… and now they had to watch their mom’s affection for the demon mother grew stronger, perhaps even surpassing her love for them.
“Okay.”
After that simple acknowledgment, Ifia immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Phew!
The bomb was successfully defused, so it didn’t explode.
However, their originally planned seaside parent-child activity couldn’t continue… They could only briefly pick some delicious seafood and then return to the restaurant with Amelia leading the way.
Later, they had a seafood feast for dinner. The sky, which was originally filled with crimson clouds, now turned into a sky full of stars. Above the nightfall, the moon shone brightly.
Meanwhile, in the bedroom, Ifia, who had originally planned to have a good night’s sleep with Amelia, was now in a dilemma.
The reason was simple.
Cheryl and Daryl, the two little ones, were whimpering and begging for Ifia to sleep with them.
Amelia, on the side, dressed in black silk nightgown, stood with her arms crossed, waiting for Ifia’s decision.
