Chapter 5399: Whose Mistake?

"I don’t dare! Ahaha!" Ellia’s voice echoed loudly in the chamber.

Davis tickled Ellia’s waist, embracing her from behind and pulling her into a hold as he began his tickle attack.

"Stop! Ahahaha!"

It made Ellia lose control, her eyes widening. She threw her head back and laughed out loud, shaking her head wildly.

"..."

Jillian Hayden turned speechless as she looked back, before continuing to focus on her work after returning her gaze.

"Stop..."

Myria uttered lightly with an amused look, but Davis didn’t stop until Ellia stated that she would confess.

Ellia knew she could no longer hide it.

She pouted, thinking Davis’s Enigmatic Heart Laws were just too powerful for her to hide her emotions with her technique, and she instantly panicked when the topic was brought up. She no longer had the confidence to create a technique that could block the sensory waves of Heart Intent from reaching her heart and soul.

In this place, his Enigmatic Heart Laws were at full swing to monitor if the lifeform suddenly came to life.

After calming down, she heaved a breath, "True. It was I who placed Bing Luli’s marriage proposal agreement in that list."

She said proudly, with her hands folded while looking away.

"Continue."

Davis gazed at Myria, still frowning, her brows furrowed in confusion, causing his gaze to return to Ellia, "Continue."

"Ehhem..." Ellia looked guilty as she raised her hand and twiddled a lock of hair in front of her face, "I disguised myself as elder sis to a point where even you would be hard-pressed to tell who I am without Heart Intent, and went to Bing Luli, got her signature soul aura on a scroll stating that I required it to buy a property near the Davis Family Estate or something that would get her close to the estate, but then sneaked it into the marriage proposal list. I was wrong."

Davis blinked, "Don’t try to shirk the responsibility. You’ve just committed a number of crimes by doing that. Identity impersonation, forgery, fraudulent acquisition of a soul aura, falsification of official documents, tampering with a marriage proposal agreement, unauthorized submission of a marriage proposal, and deliberate deception of the family’s administrative authorities. Have I missed anything?"

Davis raised his brows as he counted on his fingers, his expression growing increasingly incredulous with every word before he turned to look at Myria.

Myria responded calmly, "Premeditated deception, deliberate concealment of evidence, and an abuse of the family’s trust. If she had gone one step further and altered the contents of the agreement to a disadvantageous contract, we could have added fraudulent contractual manipulation to the list as well."

"Right?" Davis raised his brows and returned a glare at Ellia, "Are you crazy?"

"Wha...!" Ellia’s eyes widened as she hurriedly waved her hands, "Wait! Wait! I just wanted to-"

"I know." Myria sighed.

She turned to look at Davis, a guilty expression encompassing her face as she bowed and said in a low voice, "I apologize in her stead, my Emperor. Recently, I have been troubled by my bosom friend Bing Luli’s worries and divulged a few things to Ellia when she asked about what was worrying me. She said she would take care of it with a confident expression. I didn’t think she would resort to this kind of solution."

Davis reached out his hands and lifted Myria, "Don’t bow. You can’t bow to me."

He turned around and approached Ellia, causing her to flinch. She instantly squeezed herself into a protective pose, looking down, "I just... I just wanted what’s best for all three of you."

"Oh, and do you know what’s best for us?"

"Yes~" Ellia raised her head, appearing confident, "Elder sis wants Bing Luli’s worry gone. Bing Luli wants you. You should want a woman of caliber like Bing Luli in your harem after your glorious return. I dare you to say any of this is wrong, and I will do everything in my power to make sure Bing Luli never enters the harem since you it means you claim you don’t want her."

"You-" Davis pointed at her, "Too audacious. Since when did you start threatening me?"

"I own you." Ellia shrugged as she turned to look away, "I may not be the first woman to be intimate with you, but I’m the first woman to spend days and nights together with you ever since you were born."

"...!?"

Jillian Hayden turned to look at them with her lips parted wide in shock.

Davis gawked, "I was a little boy, and you were just a little girl. We did nothing other than being a Crown Prince and a Personal Maid. Don’t make it sound so debaucherous."

"..." Only then did Jillian Hayden’s expression ease.

"Insolent." Myria narrowed her brows, "Apologize right now, Ellia."

Ellia pointed at her, "Elder sister, be quiet. I own you too. You literally kidnapped me and stopped me from enjoying the best days of my life with my Prince. I might’ve even had the chance to become the first wife. Have you forgotten?"

"..."

Myria looked speechless, then lowered her head as if she were truly sorry.

"Ellia, that’s-" Davis tried to interject as he felt like Ellia went too far.

"Mmph! I won’t let you forget how you hated elder sis in the beginning, and now she occupies a bigger position than me in your heart?"

Ellia raised her brows, glaring at them as she stunned them into speechlessness.

"Both of you owe me the world. You dare to put me in prison? I want to see if I can enjoy a single second of jail time for all the wrongs that have been committed against me. I want to see you two dare."

She bent her waist and reached out, pointing at them with wide, gleaming eyes, then stood straight and folded her arms with a smug look on her face.

Both Davis and Myria lowered their heads even further, appearing to be sorry instead of Ellia feeling sorry for her mistake. Their positions switched somehow, making the others wordless.
