In the Bright Star Royal Palace.After Davis left, Shirley indulged in pleasuring herself till the effects of the aphrodisiac wore off.It was her first time doing this kind of act, but she felt an incredible pleasure that she had never felt before.Coming out her reverie, she sat back, stood up and went to the bathroom to take a bath. After a few minutes, she came out dressed in her previous outfit.Looking at her bed, she once again thought to the previous event, making her heavily blush in embarrassment.Her gaze moved slightly, looking at the guiltily kneeling figure.Felicia kneeled beside the bed, with her head down. She did not have the courage to meet Shirley's gaze, nor did she have the determination to end herself. She thought about ending her pitiful life once and for all but lacked the courage to do it.Shirley looked at Felicia with a complex gaze, 'Playful, was it?' She asked herself as she recalled.On one side, she couldn't find in her heart to easily forgive Felicia.

Days passed by as Davis and Evelynn stayed at that unnamed Royal Palace for a week, recuperating.The scars on her body disappeared, while her left arm closed up, and her right arm still in the midst of healing.Davis had almost gone mad when he heard that there were no apothecaries present in the capital during this time. Apparently, a competition was held for the seniors and juniors of the apothecary world in another city.He had no choice but to wait and take care of her till an expert apothecary arrived.On the last day, a female apothecary arrived, checked up on Evelynn's body and told Davis that there were no internal or fatal injuries to her body.This made Davis relax his nerves. Even though he had already determined her condition, he wasn't an authentic apothecary in the first place. His eyesight and senses could go wrong sometimes, and he didn't want anything to happen to her. He needed the opinion of an authentic apothecary before he calmed his nerves.The female apothecary

In the skies above a pitch black mountain, near the Ashton Empire's Borders."We'll be crossing the borders soon," Davis said as he looked at the outposts in the distance.He then looked beside to see a beautiful figure who looked serene in the dancing wind, except the figure was still wearing his imperial black robes where half of its left sleeve flailed around in the air.He asked, "Are you worried?" Guilt was still visible in his eyes.She looked at him and smiled, "… Sort of… I wonder how our people will react after seeing my state?"Davis rolled his eyes, "Why are you worrying about that? I should be the one who is worried!"Evelynn chuckled on hearing his statement.He sighed and explained, "What? I brought you out without any elite guards to protect us! I was too arrogant, and now, I've learnt my lesson! Except, you paid the price for it!"With a silent pause, he murmured, "I'm going to get beaten by my mother for sure!"Evelynn giggled and shook her head, "You'll see when we ge

The elders and the youths looked at Davis with a dumbfounded expression etched on their faces.Davis kept quiet all this while because the moment he heard them say to treat Evelynn as a bad dream, something snapped in his mind.It took everything to control himself from murdering these Cauldon Family elders in cold blood. It was because that this was her family that he took this much effort to calm himself down.But these old bastards wouldn't stop boasting about their grand-daughters, so he finally shouted loudly with a frosty expression on his face.He looked at Evelynn with a gaze that told a million things.Surprisingly, Evelynn nodded her head as she hardened her heart. The hate she felt for these elders came to be known by Davis now.The moment she nodded her head, three heads flew into the air soundlessly as it descended on the ground with a 'thud!'. Their bodies collapsed as blood flowed out from the neck like a river.Davis employed the same soul attack, albeit, he conjured a

Evelynn came inside and guiltily put her head down, not able to face her mother-in-law's smiling gaze.Claire frowned, she suddenly grasped Evelynn's robes and spread it as her eyes widened in anger. She turned to Davis and coldly asked, "Who did this?""Sasha Claymore and Vanis Claymore, I killed the both of them!" Coldness flashed through his eyes as he replied.Pah!Claire slapped him and shouted, "How could you let this happen? Weren't you arrogant? Not even opting to take bodyguards with you!"Davis put his head down in shame and regret but felt a little happy. Only his mother would dare to punish him while no one even dared to even offend him. In this case, he was in the wrong and felt that he totally deserved this slap!Even though the slap echoed like thunder in the room, it did not hurt one bit for him. Knowing that his mother held back, he smiled in his heart.Diana and Edward stopped playing and they hugged each other while watching the ongoing spectacle with a scared expre
