[Volume 5]: Chapter 19 - A Sweet Girl Won’t Be Fooled By The Villainess
Seeing Jessica blinking her eyes non-stop, Ifia even started to suspect if she was seeing things. Maybe Jessica's eyes were just twitching? (...) However, just as Ifia was thinking this, Jessica took the initiative to move closer, affectionately taking Ifia's hand. Her eyes stopped blinking and focused earnestly on Ifia. "Ifia, the chaos of demons in Darwah City has ended. You don't need to worry about danger. Just come with me~" Facing Jessica's coquettishness, Ifia couldn't help but shiver. Without delay, she firmly pushed Jessica aside after placing her hand on Jessica's forehead. Seeing that Jessica still wanted to persist, Ifia quickly gestured to stop her and said helplessly, "Jessica, don't touch me. I can't afford to provoke your jealous boyfriend, Austin." Ahem, now that they are no longer single, they should be more cautious! Wait! Rather than calling Austin jealous, Amelia is a whole sea of jealousy. There's just no comparison. Especially after learning about Amelia's demon identity, she needs to be more cautious. Ifia doesn't know how Amelia will treat her, but others will surely be in trouble. After all, can you reason with a demon? Despite Amelia's appearance as a gentle and rational pretty elder sister, it's all a facade. Just like when they had a falling out earlier, she could be reasoned with, but she wouldn't let go. She's unreasonably stubborn. Although being too overprotective might make others uncomfortable, Ifia feels it's okay. Well, even though she and Amelia haven't defined their relationship, they have already experienced everything they should say and do. They still enjoy sticking together and are still in the honeymoon phase every day. Of course, there's no way they'd get tired of it. If anything, Ifia kinda likes it~ However, the damn Rosalind royal family has assigned Amelia too many tasks, leaving her too busy to spend time together every day. Upon hearing what Jessica said just now, maybe it's because Prince Kaloey withdrew from the competition for the throne, and even if the Rosalind royal family were to nominate another candidate, it probably wouldn't work. Amelia is leading by a large margin. Therefore, the Rosalind royal family, baffled and powerless, can do nothing but throw a tantrum like a toad without biting anyone but disgusting everyone. Not even afraid that Amelia will get angry and just wipe out the Rosalind royal family! Hmm! Looking at it this way, Amelia has a good temper, she's a gentle demon, huh~ () While Ifia was having such sweet thoughts about Amelia, Jessica had become honest. She wasn't really afraid of Austin, who only cared about work and not about having a girlfriend, but she was scared of Miss Barren. God knows, she was all shaky inside at the thought of taking Ifia out from Miss Barren's villa. Very scared. But, she had already promised that person, she couldn't break the agreement. She had to grit her teeth and continue persuading. "Ifia." "Alright, no need to say more. It's just shopping. Let's go, I've been bored at home, so going out for a change might be nice." After Jessica made her case, Ifia had already readily agreed. Staying at home was just boring, so might as well go shopping. See if there are any good ingredients. Then to come back and show off her skills in the kitchen, serving Amelia who's been working hard to support the family~ After deciding on their schedule, they wasted no time and immediately instructed the steward to prepare a carriage, and then set off in a carriage bearing the emblem of the Barren family. Sitting in the carriage, Jessica felt a little uneasy, "Ifia, are we leaving like this? Don't we need to inform Miss Barren?" "It's fine, the steward will inform her. I'm not a child to have my movements restricted. Plus, it's just shopping. By the way, Jessica, why are you so afraid of Amelia lately?" After explaining her route, which would take about fifteen minutes to the shopping street, Ifia's eyes turned and her black pupils immediately exuded a curious light. Could it be that Jessica had discovered Amelia's true identity? When Ifia said this, Jessica was stunned but didn't dwell on the matter any further. Instead, she organized her thoughts before speaking, "I don't know why, I just feel unable to speak in front of Miss Barren." That's what Jessica's intuition told her. In addition, Austin also changed his usual behavior recently, asking her not to see Ifia too often, and preferably to keep her distance from Miss Barren. As if Miss Barren was a dangerous predator. However, it was obvious that on the ship to Tarque Country, Austin even praised Miss Barren! Jessica couldn't figure out why he suddenly said that, as if Miss Barren had taken Ifia to the Kamis Territory, and when the demon plants were transported to Darwah City, Austin was constantly frowning. As if he had encountered a huge problem. After that, he changed his attitude and seemed busy every day. Just like this time, when someone asked to invite Ifia out, he was the one who actively facilitated the introduction. Jessica didn't plan to tell Ifia about her fear of Miss Barren, to avoid unnecessary trouble. Ifia was her little sister and she couldn't forget her friend for a partner. Moreover, as long as she kept her distance from Miss Barren, it should be fine. She decided to take the initiative to stay away. "Hehe, I thought Jessica wasn't afraid of anyone! Perhaps Amelia has handled a lot of affairs recently, making her grow more, and consequently, more imposing. Even I feel a bit timid sometimes!" However, Ifia's timidness had another reason. Previously, when indulging in the antics of Amelia's demon tail, although there was a slight sense of enjoyment, when Amelia sought physical intimacy at night, Ifia firmly refused. Kidding, they're still in the trial period, so don't even think about seducing her! And besides, the ecstasy of reaching the climax was too intense. She needed to take it slow. Even though it was Amelia's demon tail moving, it was she who ended up exhausted and fatigued! It's frustrating! Human endurance is no match for a demon's! (#>) "In fact, Ifia, I called you out this time to…" "Shh, Jessica, I know!" As they spoke, the carriage had already arrived at their destination, and Ifia and Jessica immediately started their shopping trip. They first went to see the vegetables, fruits, and spices that Ifia wanted, and then sent the purchased items to the carriage. Next, it was time to go look at some dresses. A woman must please herself. Ifia also wanted to dress herself up nicely. Then, she could flaunt it in front of Amelia, looking all pretty every day, but out of reach. It's tormenting~ As Ifia felt mischievous thoughts, Jessica led her into a clothing store. While looking at the dresses, they ended up going downstairs. In the dim light, when Ifia looked up and saw the familiar face, the doubts in her heart were finally dispelled. She wondered who was trying to see her in different ways, but it turned out to be the Saintess, Tiffany! She just came over directly, without anyone stopping her? "Ifia, the Saintess wants to see you. You two can chat." Jessica had sharp eyes. After saying this, she disappeared in a flash, leaving Ifia and the Saintess in the basement alone. Before Ifia could ask what was on her mind, the Saintess spoke up, "Ifia, I thought you would understand that being with a demon is not a good idea. "You've seen Amelia's true face. Why do you still want to keep entangling with her?"
