[Volume 4]: Chapter 60 - A Sweet Girl Won’t Be Fooled By The Villainess

Stefa hurried back to the office after finishing dinner, her footsteps quick and purposeful. Usually, after dinner, she would leisurely stroll through and admire the palace's green scenery to relieve her long-tensed mind. Life is so long, what if there's a sudden death? That would be terrible. After all, no one wants to go to heaven and leave their money in the bank! However, today was different. Stefa's hastiness had a reason... She realized she had made a mistake by generously giving away her hard-earned premium dessert to the intern. Recalling it, Stefa felt like she must have been bewitched by a demon! Even if the intern was adorable, what does it have to do with her, Stefa?! However, even if she realized her mistake, it was too late. There was only half of the Marfissa dessert left. She couldn’t bring herself to quickly eat it; instead, she cherished each bite, savoring it slowly. Some things are only cherished once they are lost! Thus, with two glutinous rice balls left uneaten, Stefa decided to save them for later. At this moment, she felt like a guardian dragon protecting a treasure trove! However... Peeking through the door crack, Stefa's brown eyes widened involuntarily as she watched the scene inside, utterly dumbfounded and feeling like she might be dreaming. What was she seeing??? The typically aloof and outstanding Miss Baron Amelia, the only heir of the Baron family, was actually kissing the intern, Ifia! Oh my goodness! Was she dreaming? Stefa watched the shocking scene inside the office, dumbfounded, then pinched herself hard on her thigh. "Ouch~ That hurts! It's actually real! Miss Baron, who has always been the center of attention, is emotionally as clean as a blank piece of paper. Even though she is engaged to Prince Carloy, their relationship showed no signs of love. Instead, it seemed to be heading towards enmity. This made the nobles of the Sizt Empire speculate, thinking that Miss Baron Amelia had restrained herself emotionally. With outstanding looks and abilities, she maintained a rational approach to emotions. Such a person, even if not from the Baron family, would shine like the rising sun! It's just that being born into the Baron family raised the starting point, allowing people to discover this gem even sooner! Even Stefa greatly admired Miss Baron, treating her as her ultimate idol, like a lofty goddess. However, at this moment, the goddess had fallen to earth... Stefa felt like she had been hit by a heavy blow of ten thousand points. It was because she had discovered Miss Baron's intimate relationship with the intern. She suddenly thought that everything could be traced back. For example, the tense situation at the palace, how Ifia, a commoner, managed to become an intern midway, and the gem brooch bet—these are not things a commoner could possess. And the way Miss Baron took care of the intern was not just based on professional duties but rather an unspoken relationship between the two! In an instant, the transformed great detective Stefa became increasingly shocked as the clues were extremely obvious. So, would she, the one who discovered the truth, be taken care of by Miss Baron? As Stefa's heart was in turmoil, in the office, Amelia was relaxing and enjoying the dessert, her purple eyes slightly narrowed in contentment. The soft and sweet taste pleased the devil, and as for someone spying on her, Amelia had long noticed. However, upon seeing that it was Stefa, the devil's possessiveness for Ifia began to rise. The exclusive stamp for Ifia needed to be shown. Therefore, with a dark sense of pleasure, exposure was of no concern. However, now that she had seen it, there was no need to be bothered. Thinking this, Amelia absentmindedly lifted her gaze, her purple eyes coldly meeting the peeking brown eyes at the door crack. In just a few seconds, a heavy object fell outside the office door, followed by hurried footsteps quickly retreating. Seeing this, a faint smile flashed in Amelia's eyes, and as she withdrew her gaze, it was as if an invisible hand closed the door again, hiding the room from prying eyes. Ifia, who had been affectionately embraced by Amelia, wouldn't have even noticed if there had been a bomb explosion outside, so deeply engrossed in her feelings. She was completely focused. After experiencing Amelia's warmth, Ifia passively sank into a state of infatuation. Previously, watching a kissing scene in movies or dramas didn’t bring her any pleasure. But now, being kissed by Amelia, it felt so good~ As if soaking in warm spring water, she enjoyed the feeling, making her feel weak and wanting to lie down and sink into the soft clouds. In reality, Ifia clung to Amelia's neck, not letting go. It was the docile posture that the devil liked. It also made Amelia's pretty red eyes carry a bit of a smile, feeling that the stubborn and cute little fellow was annoying yet adorable. How long would Ifia's tough facade last? "Ifia, hurry to the square for the assembly; the announcement of each department's performance evaluation is about to begin." Stefa straightened her appearance, about to leave the office, and then she noticed the intern Ifia daydreaming. She initially wanted to ignore it, but soon, recalling the exciting scene she had witnessed that day, she decided to remind her. Even though Stefa desperately wanted to delude herself, the profound memory shattered the illusion. Miss Baron definitely noticed that the spy was her! It had instantly exposed a huge secret. In these few days, Stefa hadn't been eating or sleeping well, fearing some ‘unexpected circumstances’. Fortunately, there had been no other special events in these days. Stefa breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that she had managed to keep herself out of trouble. After all, some nobles do not want the news of their same-sex attraction to be leaked, guarding it fiercely to maintain their image. But Miss Baron seemed to not care, not even issuing a warning. Was this the confidence of a strong person? Will it be announced later? Stefa was lost in thought for a moment, then quickly calmed down. As long as Miss Baron spared her, that would suffice! So, even though the intern had eaten half of her dessert, Stefa decided to maintain a friendly attitude. Having a good relationship with the intern = pleasing Miss Baron! Upon hearing Stefa's words, Ifia, who was still reminiscing the intense scenes from that day in the office, immediately snapped back to reality, her cheeks turning pink. She could only raise her hands to cover her cheeks to avoid being noticed. Hehe, in the blink of an eye, it was the day of the performance evaluation, and her stage was set. It was time for her to go on!
