[Volume 4]: Chapter 113 - A Sweet Girl Won’t Be Fooled By The Villainess

In terms of acting, even if everyone present combined their efforts, they wouldn't be a match for Baron Amelia. So, when a faint look of curiosity appeared on Amelia's face, and she approached with a puzzled expression in her purple eyes, Ifia and the others immediately sat up straight subconsciously, resembling students caught sleeping in class. Feeling guilty. Especially Ifia, she was like a stimulated cat, her whole body hair stood on end. If she had a tail, it would probably be standing straight up. Instantly on edge. Fortunately, someone among the three remained composed. The steady Lucy spoke up directly, "Baroness, good morning! It's been a while since we've seen Ifia, and we were just listening to her recount her experiences in the Kamis territory." With Lucy leading the way like a backbone, Ifia immediately nodded along. She was just a "yes, yes" away. At this moment, Ifia nodded seriously, while also putting on a sincere demeanor, as if she were genuinely narrating her travel experiences, rather than discussing emotional issues gathered together. Such a silly and adorable act made her really like her. Amelia thought to herself this way, restraining her smile and similarly put on a sincere appearance, smiled at Ifia, and then said, "So, you were talking about your previous trip!" Upon hearing Amelia's words, Ifia immediately felt relieved. Successfully bluffed through it! Luckily, Amelia didn't overhear!!! "Yes, the starry sky in Kamis is beautiful, and those ice sculptures. Jessica and Lucy, if you have the chance, you should go see them for yourselves!" While Ifia was relaxing and feeling fortunate, Jessica and Lucy were speechless. Really??? How could Ifia be so easy to believe like this??? They made quite a commotion when they spoke, especially when they teased Ifia, and no one knew when Baroness arrived. Now, there was a good chance that Baroness overheard them. However, it seemed that Baroness was willing to indulge Ifia. Even cooperating with Ifia's acting, no matter how childish and clueless, it didn't matter, completely disregarding the others. It made Jessica and Lucy look on with envy!!! After all, who didn't have a dream of being endlessly cherished by a strong person! But now, seeing Ifia's foolish appearance, they couldn't help but want to expose the truth. They thought: Stop dilly-dallying and just go for it boldly, since both sides like each other! What's there to fear? Even if the other person is the stunning Baroness! However, compared to Jessica and Lucy's excitement, Ifia remained calm. Looking at Amelia again after hearing Jessica's suggestion to confess, she was feeling a bit awkward. She couldn't help but sneak a sidelong glance at Amelia. Even though she had known Amelia for so long, each time she looked at her from up close, Ifia couldn't help but feel overwhelmed by her beauty!!! Silver hair, purple eyes, slender waist, and long legs. At first, Amelia had a cold expression, giving off an unattainable and restrained charm. But lately, Amelia's expression had softened! Her beautiful purple eyes were particularly gentle. Faced with such an Amelia, who wouldn't be befuddled!!! "I just came to see; there are still many official matters in the study that need to be dealt with. You guys continue." Amelia looked at Ifia, her eyes filled with tender affection, and bent down to kiss Ifia on the forehead, completely without concealing the closeness between them. Jessica and Lucy, on the other side, widened their eyes in surprise and then looked at Ifia, who seemed completely oblivious, still waving to Amelia foolishly, encouraging her with her work! After Amelia left, the atmosphere in the living room remained silent. Ifia, finally coming to her senses after the beauty shock, looked around, perplexed by the sudden change in her two friends. Later, Jessica broke the silence: "Ifia, are you sure you and Baroness aren't in a romantic relationship?" No matter how you look at it, making such an intimate gesture doesn't seem like something friends would do! And seeing Ifia appear so nonchalant, it's likely she does this kind of thing often... Seriously, Jessica thought she was the first one being forward, but she never expected Ifia, this little goofball, to beat her to it. "Of course not! Jessica, are you suspecting the purity of our friendship?" "Fine, as long as you're happy." As the saying goes, you can never wake up someone who's pretending to sleep. Jessica and Lucy experienced what it meant to be the kings of stubbornness! They wished they could grab Ifia by the collar and shake her vigorously, telling this little fool to stop being so stubborn! However, it seemed to be of no use, no matter what they said. After that, they didn't bring it up again. Instead, they continued sharing gossip about the royal city, chatting away for nearly a day, until it was late, and they bid each other farewell, reluctantly leaving. Amelia had long finished her official matters, and she had been sitting next to Ifia the whole time, completely clueless about why the three of them could chat so well? Luckily, they're finally gone! Although it's unclear whether Jessica's words had an impact, tonight Ifia slept silently by herself, not asking Amelia to sleep together. She just felt a little awkward. If Ifia didn't have any ulterior motives, or didn't take Jessica's words to heart, she would definitely be her usual carefree self, sprawling out on the bed lazily, but now she couldn't ignore her own feelings. Perhaps, she should give it a try? It's said that a brave heart wins the fair lady. Even if Amelia rejects her, as long as she, as a pursuer, boldly confesses, she might make Amelia change her mind soon! Thinking of how Jessica and Austin could openly accept other people's blessings, Ifia, lying in bed, couldn't help but feel envious, biting the corner of the blanket in frustration. Maybe, she should be a little bold after all! What's the point of being so stubborn? Continuing to hesitate and worry so much would only add to her troubles and not solve anything! With this in mind, Ifia changed her position to lie flat and, at that moment, made a decision. She would find the right time to confess to Amelia! There was something important to do in the near future. The day before yesterday, she had agreed to Saint Tiffany's invitation and couldn't cancel. After cooperating with Saint Tiffany to complete a mysterious ritual, she would come back to the villa on the Pris Institute's side. Whatever happened, even if the sky fell, she wouldn't be stopped from confessing to Amelia! Although Ifia sometimes hesitated, once she made a decision, she wouldn't regret it. After figuring all this out, Ifia's mood immediately cleared up, and she happily fell asleep. The next day, when she woke up, Ifia got out of bed feeling refreshed, intending to go downstairs to the dining room to have breakfast with Amelia. But before leaving, she remembered her different thoughts about Amelia. So, Ifia paused, decisively turned around, and sat down at the exquisite dressing table. She picked up a lipstick from the table and prepared to start showcasing her charm from this day onward. She had to make Amelia accept her confession!
