Backstabber

"Wait a moment!" The third women said as she walked to the front. She wore a purple silk robe that was tinged with black.

"Really? Will I get to experience the pleasure that I have never experienced before in my lifetime?" Her eyes were hazy as she asked in a seductive tone and posture.

"Yes! I promise!" The man yelled and hurriedly ran to embrace her as he thought of almost doing her in this alleyway.

Just as he ran, he slowed down as he collapsed in the middle of running, his head flew beside the women who indirectly invited him with her seductive behaviour. Blood sprayed all over the place from his neck, but it didn't splash on the three women.

"Hurry up, it's time, we have to go now!" The women who wore pink clothes narrowed her eyes and said in disgust.

"Don't worry, it'll be soon over..." The women who wore purple robes had a sharp blade-like whip in her hands, her eyes dilated as she seductively grinned.

The next moment, screams rang out as the entire alleyway turned silent.

...

In the Bright Star Royal Palace.

The palace was built with special materials that made it glitter fierily when looked at from the outside.

Inside, marbles and stones were marvellously etched on it as it looked luxurious. The materials used in building this palace was, of course, at least Peak Earth Grade.

On a luxurious table that was adorned with shining gems, there were two women seated in an elegant manner as they chatted with each other.

"Haha, I told you right? He's deep in love with you! I hope you accept his proposal in front of the crowd, at the banquet held tomorrow." A woman who wore tight red robes said as she laughed, before turning serious. She looked incredibly curvaceous in her tight dress while her face looked amiable, making her look like a seductive angel.

"No way, Felicia. I know that he already has multiple wives, but that's not what I'm displeased at. He clearly is the type to abandon them once he is satisfied!" Shirley said as she looked at her longtime friend with a disgusted expression, she was also her sister from another mother.

"Couldn't you reconsider? I can vouch for his character!" Felicia said as she pleaded.

Shirley held Felicia's hands and said in an apologising tone, "I'm sorry, Felicia. I already made a mistake by not listening to my father's words. I personally don't like Gart, it's just that he seems more like a snake in disguise."

Gart Claymore was Felicia's cousin. He was the son of the younger sister of her mother. Her mother was originally from the Claymore Empire, but she married into the Ashton Family.

"I see..." Felicia muttered as she went silent.

She then smiled and lifted up and poured a drink for Shirley and herself in a cup.

Lifting up her cup, she smiled and said, "Then I hope you meet your fated one tomorrow at the banquet! To your future"

Shirley smiled back and lifted her cup as she smiled wryly, "To my future..."

They both gulped the contents in a swift manner.

"Do you really regret your decision you made at that time?"Felicia asked as she looked into her eyes with a disappointed gaze.

"You too? Why do all of you ask these questions? All right, you all want to know my answer right!? Go announce to the continent that I regret not making Davis Loret as my husband!" Shirley fumed as she pouted.

For these two days, some of her sisters and brothers came to ask her how she felt about that matter. All she could say was 'Maybe or maybe not' to hide her embarrassment.

Thinking of how she missed a good opportunity to gain a good husband, she felt regret. Furthermore, their questions only served to increase her regret.

"I hope you get a good husband as well," Shirley replied as she sighed.

"Hmph... Husband? You want me to get a husband?" Suddenly, Felicia's tone changed as she clenched her fists.

"Of course, you haven't even married yet and you have the same age as mine!" Shirley replied back as she laughed, she felt that Felicia was funny.

Hearing her laugh, Felicia trembled, she grit her teeth before she suddenly calmed down, "You are always like this, aren't you? Playful when conversing, even when you decide your future. Short-tempered while battling. You haven't changed one bit!"

"Heh, this is my personality and it won't change one bit!" Shirley laughed again as she banged the table, a red hue was slightly visible in her face.

"That kind of personality is going to cause you to fall one day," Felicia said in an incomparably calm manner.

Shirley felt slightly hot, her face heated up and flushed red, but she still replied as she clenched her fists, "Hmph! I will take care of that when that day comes."

"Then I dare you to escape from this ruinous event that is going to befall today!" Felicia roared, only hate, resentment and sadness were visible in her eyes.

Shirley was shocked!

Her mind suddenly connected the changes in her body to Felicia's statement, "You! What did you do to me!?"

She stood up but suddenly felt her legs go limp. Collapsing down, she held the table for support.

Felicia chuckled in an ironic manner, "What did I do? I merely paid back the gratitude you have shown me, you... You backstabber!" Tears emerged out of her eyes as she looked at her with hate, partly heartbroken.

"What!?" Shirley widened her eyes, she couldn't understand what she was saying, but her eyes suddenly dilated as she caught sight of a ghastly silhouette that emerged out of nowhere.

Without even wasting a single second, she brought out a crystal from her space ring.

Bam!

Just when she tried to crush it, her hand was slapped back, causing the crystal to fly away from her grasp.

"Hahaha, it's bad to call some elders to watch you get pleasured by me, my princess..."
