A maid came over and respectfully asked Veron, "Miss Lange! What do you want to eat?"Looking at Ambrose, Veron replied, "As usual, I'll eat whatever Ambrose is having."Then, she gave Heather a defiant look.'It's obvious that I often have breakfast with Ambrose. Although you're a princess of the Sea Mackie Clan, you never ever spent much time with Ambrose,' Veron thought."Yes, miss!" The maid replied and left.Seeing that, Heather did not get angry at all. Instead, she asked with a smile, "Veron, do you often have meals with Ambrose?"Heather could see that Veron was against her, but she did not care.With a cold and arrogant look on her face, Veron said indifferently, "Of course! Ambrose and I have known each other for five years. We have a lot of common hobbies and eating habits. As for you, you're used to seafood since you came from the Sea Mackie Clan. The breakfast here may not suit your appetite."Veron's words were still full of thorns.Heather smiled and did not min
While having breakfast in the side hall, Ambrose told Heather about the attack on Elysium Gate.In the end, Ambrose sighed and said, "Uncle Wilson was afraid that I would be carried away by hatred, so he asked me to stay here temporarily."Upon learning the situation, Heather's delicate face was also filled with pain. "These people from the Sea Dragon Palace are really ruthless. They've killed so many people.""Uncle Chester did it for your own good. After all, the enemy is a powerful opponent."Speaking of that, Heather smiled gently. "Ambrose, let me take a walk with you to relax."She knew that it was useless no matter how hard she tried to comfort him. The only thing she could do was to accompany him to relax."Okay!"Ambrose nodded and finished the last mouthful of porridge. Then, he walked out of the side hall with Heather toward the north mountain. There was a valley and a lake north of the Hidden Hero Sect. The scenery was beautiful.Seeing the scene, Veron, who was in
Hearing her words, Heather began to consider it. As the princess of the Sea Mackie Clan, it was unreasonable for her to run away in the face of the challenge.However, she held no grudge against Veron, and the area was so beautiful that she genuinely did not want to risk destroying the landscape.More importantly, Heather could tell that Veron liked Ambrose very much. That was why she regarded Heather as a thorn in the flesh. In that case, Heather was even more unwilling to accept the sparring.If there was an accident in the process of the battle, would the hatred not run deeper?Seeing that Heather hesitated, Veron became a little impatient. Finally, she frowned and exclaimed, "Hello?! Heather, can you decide faster? To tell you the truth, I like Ambrose, so I will never let you take him away from me."This time, I'll fight with you for my honor. You have to fight me whether you want it or not. If you refuse, I'll pester you every day in the future."Veron spoke in an unruly to
Clang!Just as Veron was secretly shocked, Heather circulated her internal energy and injected it into the Snow Coral Ice Flute.Heather moved as fast as lightning. By then, Veron quickly put her long sword horizontally in front of her to resist the attack.With a dull sound, Veron's delicate body retreated continuously, and she could barely hold her long sword steadily in her hand.After she steadied herself, Veron stared at Heather with shame and anger.Veron had never been suppressed like that ever since she grew up.What made the situation more unbearable was that the girl in front of Veron was her enemy.Seeing the hatred in Veron's eyes, Heather breathed a sigh of relief. Then, without any fluctuation on her beautiful face, Heather said gently, "Stop it. You can't defeat me."As a matter of fact, Heather had held back some of her strength. Otherwise, Veron would have been defeated a long time ago. However, Heather pretended to fight against Veron for more than ten rounds
'Why is Heather so strong? I've already executed my ultimate technique, and yet, it did no harm to her,' Veron thought to herself.Amid her rage, her blood suddenly rushed to her heart, and she vomited a mouthful of blood. Her body trembled slightly.'She took Ambrose from me, and I failed to defeat her. God, why are you so unfair?'When Heather saw that Veron vomited blood, she screamed in shock and looked very worried."You…you… Are you alright?" Heather asked worriedly.Heather was a kind-hearted girl. She knew Veron was mean to her because of Ambrose. After all, they did not have any grudges against each other. Moreover, they agreed that the fight would end without causing any casualties.Under such a situation, Heather felt bad when she saw Veron injured because of her attack.'She's just crying crocodile tears.'Veron sighed and was disdainful of Heather's concern.Since Veron did not respond, Heather thought Veron suffered from severe injury. She slowly walked closer to
Veron had nearly used all of her internal energy on the ambush.Heather was shocked to see the ambush. She realized Veron had been pretending. "You… Veron, what are you doing?"It never crossed Heather's mind to think Veron was such a wicked person.Her viciousness and cold-bloodedness showed entirely on Veron's exquisite face."Don't call me that. I'm not close to you. I didn't want to do this either, but you stole Ambrose from me. Now, die!" Veron applied even more internal energy to her palm.Under those circumstances, Heather tried to evade it, but the distance was too close. However, she could not avoid it, and the palm slapped on her chest and created a vibration sound.Heather groaned in pain, and her body bounced a couple of meters away. Then, her body dropped into the lake, and blood poured out from the corner of her mouth. The pain slowly struck her body, and she could hardly tolerate it. She nearly fainted."You…"Heather furiously glared at Veron. She wanted to sc
Looking at how heartless and cold-blooded Veron was, anger swept over Ambrose. He yelled loudly, "You… You shut up!"'How could she still say such a thing when Heather is severely injured?'Although Ambrose did not know what happened earlier, he believed that with Heather's power, she would not have lost to Veron in a fight. They must have hidden something from him.Veron did not think that she was wrong at all. She replied nonchalantly, "Did I say something wrong? Who can you blame when she can't even withhold an attack from me?"It was infuriating to Veron when she failed to kill Heather before Ambrose showed up. Her heart was filled with jealousy because Ambrose only cared about Heather.Ambrose stood up as soon as Veron finished talking. His eyes had turned red as he stared at Veron. All the while, Ambrose had been controlling himself, but he no longer could tolerate it after Veron became more and more absurd."You…"Veron's body started to tremble as she panicked when she s
Ambrose was happy to see Heather wake up. However, he reprimanded her when he heard what she said."Silly girl. What nonsense are you talking about? We aren't married yet. We're going to have many children, so nothing can happen to you. Don't say such foolish things anymore. Okay?"He embraced Heather in his arms, feeling very excited.Heather smiled when she saw how Ambrose panicked because of her. It was a girl's happiest moment to have a man protect and care for her deeply. She felt touched as she slowly got closer to Ambrose's cheek and kissed it.Ambrose's mind blew up when he felt the softness on his face. However, it was just a quick peck.Heather placed her face on Ambrose's chest with her blushed cheeks and said, "I'm fine now. My body just takes two days to recover. You don't have to be so hard on yourself."Suddenly, she remembered something, "Oh, yes. Don't blame Veron too. She really likes you a lot, and that's why she thinks of me as her enemy…"However, she failed
