Chapter 4796  Love-Hate Relationship

It reminded Shirley of her own situation back then with Davis, which was complicated. He had hated her once because Evelynn had been harmed in her Ashton Empire's Capital, but he wasn't able to be there for Evelynn because he had spent time protecting her from falling prey to her half-siblings, who acted against her using an aphrodisiac.

It seemed he had been fooled as someone faked a letter from her to bring him away so that they could target Evelynn. Therefore, he totally blamed her, feeling that his respect towards her was taken advantage of.

After all, they had rescinded their marriage agreement without butting heads, so they held a rare kind of respect for each other.

However, these two schemes from two different groups shattered that respect, but she still held that respect and started to like him even more, which turned into love.

It bound them into a love-hate relationship before they both apologized to each other for not being mature and smart in dealing with their foes after many years, when they reunited in the Grand Beginnings Continent.

She was fond of those memories, but this was totally different.

As long as she could remember, Fairy Thunderblaze first acted against Davis by kidnapping him, and then she had been scheming to take advantage of him all the time before she finally fell for him. They thought it was a move that she made to further have Davis in her hands, but now, she was really trying to prove to herself that she was on his side and that she should be first, his one and only Empress.

Shirley couldn't help but smirk, "She is one heck of a woman to penetrate into his heart this much and make him indecisive like this. Even though her charm didn't succeed, her intention to get into his heart seemed to have succeeded, confusing him greatly."

Evelynn nodded reluctantly, "I hate to accept it, but she is indeed an exceptional woman. I was honestly afraid when I was separated from Davis when we first entered the True Immortal World, but she helped me go back to him. I was deeply indebted, but… she made a wrong choice trying to charm him at his most vulnerable moment. What a foolish woman… I hate her now…"

"We're all foolish when it comes to love. She is no different." Isabella wryly smiled.

She had also fallen in love with a married man, stupidly, when he wooed her intensely. She had never thought she, of all princesses in the Ruth Imperial Family, would stoop so low, yet it had brought her more joy and satisfaction than she could have imagined.

However, Isabella's gaze sharpened, "As you said, I won't forgive her easily either. If he wants her, so be it, but I will never treat her the same as other sisters unless she kneels and apologizes, begging for forgiveness."

"She will never…" Shirley giggled. She wasn't as pissed as Evelynn and Isabella when it came to this matter. She was still angered but to her, romance was intimacy and daggers from the start.

If she still hadn't gained Davis after reuniting with him back then, she didn't know what she would have done. As much as she felt guilty back then, wallowing in despair really wasn't her style. Fortunately, that didn't happen because Davis was willing to reconsider. That wouldn't happen with a man who was full of ego, so she was still full of trust in him.

"Depends on how much she wants Davis." Evelynn's gaze flashed with a cold glint, " I'm done with researching. If she doesn't want him that much, then I'll reverse her charm and make the love slave she deserves to be."

"…"

Isabella and Shirley shook, feeling scared by their big sister. When it came to Davis, she was as crazy as ever. When he had died, she was the only one who abandoned her humanity and went to massacre his enemies.

Now that he was harmed by Fairy Thunderblaze, they couldn't tell how much she was suppressing herself from harming her.

==========

Myria waited for a long time before Davis's seclusion chamber.

"Come in."

The doors finally opened along with his firm voice.

The undulations from the chamber hit Myria, making her blood flip inside ever so lightly.

'How strong! His Body Tempering Cultivation has really reached an unattainable level…'

Myria could only stop breathing and not breathe in the toppling blood aura. Otherwise, she felt her own blood might start tumbling within, injuring her organs.

"Myria, you're back." Davis stood up from the cultivation cushion, patting his robes.

It was new, so new that Myria could tell his previous clothes were likely bloodied to the hem. The surroundings were also cleaned, so she imagined there was a puddle of blood.

Davis acted like nothing was wrong as he closed the distance and grabbed her hand softly, placing it on his cheek.

"Did I make you wait too long? I'm sorry."

"It's nothing. Are you done with stabilizing your Body Tempering Cultivation?"

"Yes, I was continuing to refine my soul."

"Do you need help?" She asked softly, "I can make it as painless as possible."

"No," Davis shook his head, "I'm almost done. I refined my soul ninety-seven times, each session lasting half a day. Two more times, and I don't think anything foreign will survive, even if they're hiding. And it's not a given if something's still inside me, but I still think it's good to cleanse it lest something intrudes into our family while I'm looking away."

Myria nodded.

She knew the dangers of immortals reincarnating, much less higher-level beings reincarnating in the children of their target's families or manipulating children using karma. Their methods would be really ruthless.

"That's right…" Myria remembered as she took out a letter, "Ellia told me to give this to you, and it is extremely important before being sealed in the time-frozen storage space. She even warned me not to go through it or that she would hate me."

"Hmm? So secretive that she hides things from her own mother?"

Davis grabbed the letter and saw that it was really unread since Ellia's soul seal was still undisturbed on the letter.

He ripped the seal and then took out the letter to read.

Myria looked away, trying to give them privacy, but she could only try as she saw in the corners of her eyes Davis flinch and his eyes go wide, his pupils dilating.

"What is it?" She couldn't help but ask.

Davis's gaze was frozen and stuck on the five words within the numerous paragraphs.

[… our Lydia is a reincarnated being…]

"How can… this… be…?" Davis staggered back, his heart sinking.

He felt like an explosive thunder had struck him, making his mind go blank.

He had not engaged in intimacy with his wives for the past three months for fear of a reincarnated being intruding into the family, but it still happened!?
