Chapter 5394: Cajoling The Solar Bird

Mingzhi saw this coming from afar.

She didn’t know which way he would deal with this matter, but knew he wouldn’t push Flamerose away. She was hard to not love, straightforward and passionate than any Fire Phoenix she had seen. However, she was still impressed with how he handled this situation, using their longing to his advantage.

’What a rogue bandit... The council needs to punish him...’ She also grinned.

However, she looked at him with a bit of doubt.

Why wasn’t he going for Flamerose’s lips yet? The typical Davis they knew would’ve sealed the deal after having them in his palms, so what’s stopping him?

Flamerose’s eyes fluttered open upon not feeling anything on her lips.

She gazed at his solemn expression, her heart, already beating loudly, losing control as it sank.

"Flamerose, I’m still going to respect your decision."

"You-"

Davis placed a finger on her lips, "I meant that I will pursue you like you wanted. After all, even though there was no love, you knew I was fond of you, didn’t you? Would I joke about kissing you if it weren’t for that? All I ask is for you to give me some time. I need to send my son to a dangerous place where I don’t know if he will become a Realm Master or... you know, alright?"

"Yes, yes... I was hasty..."

Flamerose’s expression went through numerous changes before she settled on an understanding expression.

Davis’s expression finally cracked and produced a smile.

"Then, are you still angry about us?" He asked with a soft chuckle.

Flamerose’s hostility nearly faded into nothingness, replaced with the fear of being shut off.

This was what he had precisely wanted.

Perhaps there were better ways to do it, but he didn’t know how with the little time he had left for himself to maneuver across all his beauties, administration, and survival. He even felt that if he couldn’t deal with it today, then Flamerose really might turn vengeful, as he had sensed hostility growing within her, eventually causing her to turn miserable and drag everyone with her. Her bloodline seemed to be prone to turning possessive and murderous according to what Frostrose sent him as a tip.

However, he didn’t expect her to break so quickly.

This told him how much she longed for him.

"Yes, I’m still angry that you didn’t consider me your lover, but you did for Frostrose. Whatever Frostrose has experienced with you, I also want...! Our experiences shouldn’t be different by a huge margin! Otherwise... otherwise... you’re separating us~"

Flamerose hit his chest a few times and spoke softly, her gaze looking away as she was incredibly embarrassed, but because the harem was surrounding her, her eyes inevitably darted around, not knowing where to stop.

Davis chuckled.

He found Flamerose incredibly cute, causing him to embrace her again, "You’re asking the impossible since the harem is already aware of you."

"I don’t care~ Find a way~"

Flamerose harrumphed cutely, snuggling into his embrace more.

She cared less and less about being embarrassed and stuck to him like she wouldn’t let him go. Her emotions towards him rose in a possessive manner, wanting to make him her man.

Davis was glad that Flamerose was still herself, haughty but easy to talk to. He laughingly looked at the others as they returned with various smiles of their own, some teasing, some impressed, and some amused.

They had asked him how he was going to deal with Flamerose’s outburst, and he had done so smoothly without making her implode in the process. It must be known that Flamerose was very important to them since Shirley’s future relied on these twin phoenixes. If either one of them went missing, the path to her supremacy would be cut off, so none of them wished for this to end badly.

Davis also didn’t dare kiss Flamerose in front of everyone.

He had just survived the matter of Frostrose, and he didn’t know what kind of punishment they would give him. If he took Flamerose now, there was a chance that they would not be amused. He handled it in a way that everyone was satisfied with the outcome, and thankfully Flamerose didn’t hate him too much, but just felt wronged and aggrieved by his actions that stole Frostrose from her when she said she could’ve done the same to her if he were to do that to Frostrose.

"Framie..."

Frostrose appeared by the side and held Flamerose’s hand, looking at her with an apologetic gaze.

Flamerose turned to look at her, stared for two seconds, then pulled her into an embrace with Davis.

Frostrose was stunned, but then her cheeks blushed as she smiled shyly.

Flamerose also smiled. No, she grinned, smiling wide like a fool because their collapsing promise was finally taking shape again instead of fully breaking. Flamerose had no doubt that she had been hoodwinked somehow when she saw the reactions of the others after she had said all those things, but she couldn’t care less right now.

She obtained what she wanted in her life.

Surrounded by the warmth of the man she loved as his arms held them together, she felt like they were back in the same twin-colored nest they grew up in. It invoked fond memories inside her where she had no one but Frostrose with her, but this time, there was a companion who would protect them and wouldn’t leave them alone even if they screamed at him.

Nonetheless, their elation didn’t last for long since Davis was pulled away from them.

"Now he has to suffer the consequences of his own actions, but that can wait until he has sent Azariel away." Mingzhi said with a firm voice.

"Ah..."

Flamerose and Frostrose felt sorry for Davis, but they didn’t speak out of turn, fearing that they might make it worse for him.

Although they knew his women loved him, they didn’t know how strict the rules were within the harem. A family needs to have its ways to deal with those who don’t conform to the family’s Will. They had also conformed to the family’s Will once and were sent to be inheritance masters, or better known as ’sacrifices for the greater good’, so they understood this better than anyone.

Since Davis said he was willing to be punished, then it was sure to occur.

Davis nodded at Mingzhi and the others silently. All things considered, Azariel was his first priority right now.

However, his mind went back to what Esvele said about Azariel. He was wondering if he should reveal that matter now. After all, if he hid this matter, he might be punished more, but then, he didn’t know what really happened as he hadn’t had the time to investigate it.

Azariel had also grown into a fine man if he could withstand most of his training. If Azariel had done the deed, the responsibility would also lie with him to take care of the mess.

Davis told himself not to go do everything for others and let Azariel take care of it. Hence, he decided it was better to wait for his return.

Either way, he gave a few excuses and brought Shirley back to Esvele.

Evelynn and a few others also followed back.

They were also worried about the Head Maid being sick. How could they not notice? While walking through the hallway, Davis took the time to explain his findings to them and Jillian Hayden’s diagnosis and treatment methods.
