Chapter 148 Disbelief
?
Rose stared at her mother with a pondering gaze, clearly puzzled by her words. "What do you mean by that? Are you suggesting that we let that idiot, Henry, continue running his mouth without consequences?" Rose thought to himself, bewildered by his mother's approach.
"Mother, what are you trying to say?" Rose asked, her face reflecting her confusion.
Madam Layla inwardly sighed at her daughter's cluelessness. With a smirk on her lips, she whispered into Rose's ear, "Tell me, Rose, don't you dislike Henry and want him to stop pursuing you? He's been troubling you for a long time now, but you haven't done anything because of your concern for your father."
Rose's eyes narrowed slightly, her mother's words sinking in. She had to admit, she had been bothered by Henry's persistent advances for a long time, but the concern about her father's friendship had always held her back. Madam Layla's suggestion did make sense, but Rose still couldn't shake off her worries.
"I understand what you're saying, Mother," Rose replied, her voice tinged with uncertainty. "But won't it create unnecessary trouble for us? The Turner family won't stay silent if something were to happen to Henry under our roof."
Madam Layla sighed again, disappointed by her daughter's short-sightedness. She couldn't understand how Rose, as the acting village head, failed to see the advantages they could gain by responding to the Turner family about their son's behavior.
A minute later, Madam Layla's smirk grew, and she suggested, "Isn't the current situation the best chance for you to get rid of him? Trust me, this is the best opportunity you'll have."
Rose pondered her mother's words carefully, acknowledging their plausibility. Yet, she still had concerns about the outcome.
"Mother, are you sure it's okay to let them handle him?"
"Trust me, it will be fine. You're worried for nothing. Don't you know how strong Yuan and his wives are?" Madam Layla assured with a smile, referring to the powerful individuals who had effortlessly defeated a wyvern.
Rose considered her mother's words again, realizing the truth in them. She knew firsthand the strength of Yuan and his wives. With their power, handling Henry wouldn't be an issue. Maybe it was time to finally put an end to his advances.
'Let's see these two idiots get their ass kicked by Yuan's wives... Or should I say by my sisters? Either way, it will be fun to watch him getting his ass kicked,' Rose thought inwardly.
"B-Big Sis Rose! A-Aren't you going to stop that idiot before he does anything stupid?" James said to Rose in a low voice, sweating as he watched Henry trying to impress Yuan's wives.
"Why should I stop him? It will be his own fault for poking a finger in a lion's asshole. Even if he were to die here, I won't involve myself," Rose replied nonchalantly.
"I-Is that so..." James exclaimed, his voice tinged with indifference.
'So it's true, today this idiot will be visiting hell on a one-way ticket, huh?' James thought inwardly, his expression awkward.
Meanwhile, Henry approached Yuan's wives with a confident look and a smile on his face. "You do the honor by telling your beautiful names, my dear Goddesses? I will be honored to know your beautiful names, as beautiful as you all are, your names will definitely be beautiful."
'I'm so handsome! There is no way these goddesses will say no to succumb to my handsome face, I won't believe it. Now tell me your names, beautiful... Haha!' Henry thought inwardly, feeling proud of his handsome face.
"We don't want to tell you our names, we don't have time to waste our breath on an insignificant ant like you! Go away!" Xi Meili retorted coldly, giving a stern look to Henry.
Henry was left speechless! Did she just refuse to tell him their names? Was his face not worth them revealing their names?
'Did I just get rejected? Perhaps my ears are ringing, and I misunderstood her words?' Henry thought inwardly in a dazed manner, his expression seemingly in disbelief.
Seeing this, Rose, Madam Layla, and everyone in the room couldn't help but let out a chuckle. The scene was quite funny as Henry was bluntly rejected.
Clap! Clap!
A minute later, Yuan clapped as he approached Xi Meili with a delighted smile on his face. When Henry looked toward him, he saw a very handsome young man with black hair and a firm slim figure, which made him feel inferior.
'Who is this bastard anyway? Why is he interfering in my affair? More importantly, why is he here?' Henry stared at Yuan with a dissatisfied look, wondering.
"Well done, Xi Meili! You did a fine job. How can an idiot like him deserve to know your names? I'm proud of you..." Yuan said with a smile, gently pinching Xi Meili's cheeks.
"Hahaha! Indeed! I also agree, just as Yuan said, an idiot like him has no right to know your names. Just ignore this monkey here, just as I do..." Rose's laughter resounded, causing Henry's face to turn ugly from embarrassment.
'How dare this bitch side with them just because she hates me?' Henry glared at Rose with an enraged look on his face, unhappy with her siding with the handsome young man named Yuan.
He looked at Yuan, whose face was a hundred times more handsome than his, and thought inwardly, 'So his name is Yuan, and the goddess who rejected me is Xi Meili? Was he the reason Rose was giving me a cold face earlier? So he is the reason Rose didn't even look at my face... This bastard!'
Furious at Yuan after realizing this, Henry felt betrayed that not only was Yuan well-acquainted with the five goddesses but now he was even trying to steal his love from him. How could he not be enraged at him after knowing this?
Then he looked at Madam Layla, wondering inwardly, 'Why isn't Aunt Layla saying anything?'
A minute later, with a furious look on his face, he said to Rose, "Rose, tell me, is he the reason why you're being indifferent to me? Am I not handsome enough for you to accept my love? Just because he is more handsome than me, you choose this bastard over me?"
Hearing the commotion, the dazed servant snapped out of his trance and analyzed the situation, muttering to himself in disbelief, "What the hell is going on here? And why does the Young Master look so enraged?"
Puzzled by the situation, it didn't take the servant long to realize what was happening, sensing the heavy atmosphere in the living hall.
"Henry, choose your words wisely. Yuan is my future husband and my lover, and the women you're trying to flirt with are his wives and my sisters. Respect them as you do me," Rose said with a stern look.
'That's how you should do it, you did good!' Madam Layla thought inwardly, witnessing the courage in her daughter to reveal her relationship with Yuan.
The servant's eyes widened in surprise after hearing this.
Henry had a face of disbelief, looking as though he had seen a ghost for the first time in his life.
"Y-Y-Y-You're lying!" Henry didn't dare to believe it.
"Oh, you don't believe me? Then let me prove it to you." Rose immediately turned to Yuan's handsome face and moved her head toward his, giving him a passionate kiss on the lips the following moment.
Henry felt his heart burst into a million pieces witnessing this, and the shock he'd received was so big that his eyes rolled backward until they were completely white.
"Young Master Henry! Get a hold of yourself!" The servant cried out loud as he ran toward Henry's falling body and supported him to stay standing.
"Oh my, I never thought my daughter would become this bold after such a short time. I hope he doesn't die from a heart attack... That will be hilarious!" Madam Layla thought inwardly.
James, Ava, and Julie were surprised witnessing Rose's sudden boldness as she kissed Yuan on his lips before so many eyes.
Meanwhile, Anna, Grace, Lily, Emma, and Xi Meili only let out a small chuckle after witnessing the changes in Rose's nature. They were very happy with the changes.
A few minutes later, after removing her lips from Yuan's mouth, Rose spoke with a slightly rosy face, "Why are you so surprised, Henry? We're lovers, so it's only normal for us to share a passionate kiss, and besides, I will be his wife in the future, so it's even more convenient for us to kiss."
She continued, "In fact, we've done even more intensive stuff before you came here, you know? The feeling was really amazing, and I can't wait to do it again."
Henry felt as though his soul had left his body after hearing what Rose had said, and his expression became pale as though he wasn't alive at all.
"Y-You will regret this, you damn whore! How could you torture the Young Master like this? You're so damn cruel!" The servant couldn't see the state his young master was currently in and cursed Rose with dirty words.
