Chapter 64
"Nothing could be said about last time, it was totally my fault, I am sorry for throwing a tantrum when you put in all that effort to meet me last time . " Evelynn suddenly said as she turned her head back to look at him and bowed .
Davis was astonished to see a woman apologize for her mistake . He heard that woman don't apologize for their mistakes in his previous life .
'I knew it, looks like that it was a deception painted by the people who lurk on the internet . ' He thought
"But you were also in the wrong for hitting my weak spot . . . " Evelynn said as she pouted .
'Alright! Looks like the internet people were right!'
"Haha, as you said . I was also in the wrong to carelessly speak about a topic which you don't clearly like, Miss Evelynn . I apologize as well . " Davis said as he clasped his hands .
They were now both happy that they were able to talk freely with one and another . After that, they exchanged some pleasantries as they sat at a table .
"I heard that your family announced that you would participate in the Grand Sea Continent Meet?" Evelynn was interested in that topic as she clearly wanted to know why he would participate in it with his measly cultivation of the First Stage in both Cultivation Systems .
'Could it be that he has achieved the Second Stage in both Cultivation Systems?' She thought
"Hehe, Miss Evelynn . It was my father who made me participate in it . As for whether I will be able to get into Top 200, we will see it at that time . " Davis grinned as he spoke vaguely .
"You've sure got guts, looks like I should hasten my cultivation as well . I haven't made any improvements since then, but I can feel that I am close to reaching the Revolving Core Stage . " She clenched her fists as she said that .
"*sigh* That said, it was own incompetence which made me a failure in cultivation . " Evelynn couldn't help but think that her talent was average or even subpar at sometimes which makes her sad .
Davis narrowed eyes and said, "Please don't take that to heart, you will eventually be able . . . "
As he said that, his thoughts moved to what his mom said . He suddenly thought of an idea to curb her from cultivating in a moment of desperation, which might ultimately lead to cultivation deviation .
"This . . . I don't know if it's what I think it is, so please don't start cultivating to reach the Revolving Core Stage . " Davis said as he tried to choose his words carefully .
"What!?" Evelynn felt like she didn't understand his words clearly .
'He asked me to not cultivate?' She suddenly felt that he was mocking her again before immediately pushing that thought away .
'The way he said it, doesn't seem to be the case . . . ' Then calmed down after she thought that .
"Why?" Evelynn asked .
Davis was thinking the right words to make his message clear but couldn't, since he wasn't himself sure of what told his mom tried to convey exactly at that time .
Then he thought if he couldn't use the right words then he should use the right actions to make her not cultivate for the time being .
'Eyy! Anyway, she is going to be my wife, why hesitate?' Davis thought shamelessly as he held her hands suddenly while he stood up .
"Don't be surprised, Miss Evelynn . " He warned her almost immediately .
Evelynn was surprised totally as she felt her hands being held by him, and went bright red as she heard him warning her .
Her thoughts went into disarray as she hurriedly thought of multiple possibilities, but stopped as she felt a slight tingling sensation in her hands .
'This . . . this is the energy of Peak-Level Energy Condensation Stage!!' Evelynn was totally shocked as she stood up . Her eyes went wide at him . She looked at him like she was looking at a ghost .
"Yes, it's just as you think . This is the reason for my father's confidence in me"
Evelynn nodded, still looking at him with a dumbfounded expression .
"What does that have to do with me not cultivating to the Revolving Core Stage?" She asked in doubt .
"For some reason, my mother forbid me from cultivating to the Revolving Core Stage . She is my mother and I know that she wishes the best for me in everything . That's why I chose to believe her and stop cultivating to the Revolving Core Stage .
"You mean, that . . " She said it with an incredulous expression on her face .
Davis nodded his head solemnly and said, "It is possible that the Revolving Core Stage in our continent is either incomplete or there are still some more enhancements to it . "
In Evelynn's ears, what he said echoed as rumbling thunder to her .
"You . . . Why are you saying this to me? What if I leak this information to my family? Are you not afraid of it?" She asked unbelievingly .
'Which prince would tell his family secrets like to even his lover?'
"Then I can only blame myself for treating you like a trusted person . Let me just tell you that I like you so much, not love you . "
"If I get my trust betrayed, then the best case would be that I would leave you for good, the worst case would be that I would kill you and my feelings for you in my heart as well," Davis said that with a hurt expression his face .
"The worst for me would be that I would carry some heart demons, but even so I won't hesitate to do what I said!" A determined expression appeared on his face .
Her heart palpitated as a weird feeling came over her heart . She didn't feel offended as she knew what consequences there would be for betraying the trust of a person . Even she couldn't handle it if someone betrayed her .
Evelynn asked as her eyes glazed . "You trust me?"
"I do . " Davis looked at her eyes and replied solemnly .
She bit her lips, "Do you love me?"
"I want to! but I believe we are not in that stage yet . " He shook his head .
"I see . . . " Her face went into contemplation as she pulled her hand back . It was unknown whether she was happy or sad .
"I've decided to guard your trust, and I've come to a decision!"
"What is it?" Davis asked in anticipation .
"I've decided to participate in the Grand Sea Continent Meet as well . If you can beat me, then I will become yours in both heart and soul!" Evelynn said with a determined face .
Davis's eyes went wide in astonishment, "You . . . really mean that?"
"I won't go back on my word!"
