[Volume 4]: Chapter 58 - A Sweet Girl Won’t Be Fooled By The Villainess

Upon hearing this, Amelia squinted her eyes, and when she looked at Ifia again, she saw the little one puff up. Proudly standing tall, her sparkling black eyes were full of pride. It worked. The carefully planned seduction scheme had finally succeeded! It was inevitable to feel happy. However, the demon's perverse taste always liked to pierce through the falsehood, letting humans recognize reality! So, Amelia pulled back at the right moment, wearing a look of regret on her face, shaking her head with some disappointment. "Ifia, if you don't agree, I won't force it. After all, this kind of thing requires willing participation." Not agree? Would she just give up like this? Amelia couldn't accept it! At least she had to hold on a bit, make her hesitate a bit more! Ifia brought this upon herself, watching Amelia's serious expression. Full of elegance from top to bottom, Amelia wore an air of non-coercion, not playing the game forcefully. This made Ifia want to cry without tears, hating her own mouth. Ah, could she still regret it now? "Not really..." "Don't worry, it won't have any impact on your work. I keep my personal and professional life separate." Just when Ifia was about to make an effort to save the situation, Amelia misunderstood her intentions and without waiting for Ifia to finish her words, immediately reassured her. Her excessively beautiful face carried a smile, not a hint of annoyance from being rejected. In fact, she had already considered the possibility of rejection. However, if the boss was this kind of wealthy and attractive single nobleman, being targeted for a clandestine relationship wasn't out of the question... Wait, it wasn't the time to think about these things, but the upcoming performance review! In order to obtain a recommendation from the supervisor, she even participated in a bet! The cat was already let out of the bag, there was no turning back. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. In any case, failure was not an option!!! Thinking of this, Ifia encouraged herself, then looked at Amelia, who was still smiling. She bravely reached out and directly grabbed one of Amelia's hands. Her small hand was unable to hold it completely, so she settled for grabbing her slender fingertips. Seeing that Amelia did not resist, Ifia became bolder. She whimpered coquettishly, unable to wipe off her embarrassment but had to compromise with the situation. She blinked at Amelia, abandoning insinuations and directly expressing herself. "I was just scaring you, not refusing!" Saying this, Ifia leaned in closer, crouching by Amelia's side like a spoiled little cat rubbing against its owner. If it didn't receive treats, it would meow angrily. If given treats, it wouldn't be particularly grateful, but rather arrogantly assume it was its due. The pretty little cat was being coquettish, and the owner should feed it well! As a result, even if she was having second thoughts, she didn’t have the willingness to apologize humbly. It was a natural closeness formed over time, displaying arrogance with impunity. How could Amelia dislike this subconscious expression of trust! It proved that Ifia had been well taken care of by her. So, Amelia did not show a sign of caution. She simply looked down at Ifia. Her lovely lilac eyes looked directly at Ifia. Amelia's eyebrow raised slightly, with an interesting expression, making Ifia's eyes light up, feeling there was hope! So, Ifia quickly scrambled her thoughts, starting to list her own advantages. "Amelia, I’m good-looking, have a nice figure, a lively and cheerful personality, and intelligent." Speaking of her own strengths, Ifia's chatter was unstoppable, but some of the information seemed obviously inconsistent. Just the mention of her intelligence made it dubious. After her long list of self-praise, Ifia didn’t know if she had convinced Amelia, but she had convinced herself! Amelia, who had taken such advantage of Ifia, was truly making a killing! Now, she dared not to complete the transaction after all this? Impossible, forget it, she wouldn't. Thinking this, Ifia, with wide round eyes, warned Amelia with a glance. However, she seemed more lovely and cute than alluring, lacking the previous charm, showing her lack of prowess. Perhaps this was natural attraction? This deepened Amelia's smile, which had improved her bad mood caused by the bad intentions of the others in the office. What did Ifia know! She was just a silly little glutton! In fact, Ifia had no idea of their intentions and was naive, thinking it was just normal workplace friendship. Since she enjoyed those things, Amelia would hire dedicated chefs to be stationed at the Pryce College villa, where Ifia could be fed at any time without being deceived for food. Therefore, Amelia didn't continue to string Ifia along but instead frowned slightly as if she were seriously considering. She looked at Ifia, who was full of anticipation, then hesitated before saying, "Indeed, Ifia, you're excellent, and you're my type." Hearing this, Ifia felt elated, her black eyes sparkling. Soon after, she heard Amelia continue, "But even if I like you, I have to remain rational because, Ifia, you just said you would expose me... That makes me worried. After all, I haven't had enough of being a supervisor yet!" For Amelia, it was just a roleplay between the two of them. With her superb acting skills, she confused Ifia, who regretted it immensely. (>#) If Ifia had known, she would have waited to confront her after the deal was sealed! Now she was unsettling the situation. How could she dispel Amelia's suspicions? Immediately, Ifia became as restless as an ant on a hot pan, hastily thinking of a solution. However, the capacity of her brain was limited, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't think of one in the short term. This left her feeling frustrated. She decided to resort to the most direct and straightforward tactic. "If you're worried, Amelia, I can sign and seal a document, ensuring that it won't impact your professional future." This sudden straight talk caught Amelia off guard and almost made her laugh. Wasn't this the time to act cute and play dumb to get by? This was Ifia's specialty. However, it didn't work this time, and it seemed like the little one was getting desperate. Unlike Ifia, who knew when to stop, Amelia continued along the line of the firm statement, "It's not necessary to go to such trouble. I can already feel your sincerity." "Being able to establish a contract with someone as outstanding as Ifia, I'm very happy." In fact, as Amelia had thought, Ifia was already teetering on the edge of an outburst. Fortunately, a few words from Amelia quickly quenched her anger. This made Ifia stand up straight with a spirited expression and look at Amelia from bottom to top, eagerly asking, "Really?" "Indeed." Yes! She had finally conquered the difficult boss!
