Rejected the Demon’s Marriage Proposal Thousands of Times Chapter 22.4

Battlefield (4)

Anna looked at the demon. She saw that his eyes were really unkind when he looked at her. She then looked at Parrish; he had a bright and charming smile, tempting her.

She felt the tension between the two; in her heart, she really didn't want to choose either one. Who could compare to the gentle and patient teacher Dubian?

"Master Ulysses teaches very well... If he doesn't think it will affect him, I would like to continue to learn from him." Anna said to Parrish consciously and tragically.

She tried so hard to learn to read before, but if she said she didn’t want anyone to teach her right now, Parrish might not say anything, but what if the demon became suspicious?

This demon was the same demon who went to Pomegranate Lane and burnt Bobby to death! She should probably continue to learn from him and let him keep his eyes on the Earl estate.

"Ah, fine." Parrish smiled. He didn’t insist. Anyway, he ate, drank, and was merry everyday. He had plenty of time to slowly play.

Rothgarr was not surprised to hear Anna's words. He was obviously a better choice than Parrish. Besides, he spent quite a lot of energy teaching her. She had learned so much; how could she be willing to change to Parrish?

He practically curled his lips. Winning against Parrish made him feel good, which proved that Balan's evaluation of him was completely wrong. He would be able to complete the bet very soon.

Anna waited for Parrish to finish breakfast. Then she packed up and left the small building.

As soon as she walked to the garden, her three plastic friends approached her. They surrounded her when they saw her, gossip written across their faces.

"Stop, what you heard is not true." Anna stopped them before they could speak.

"Huh? We haven't spoken yet, how did you know what we are going to say?" Abigail was puzzled.

Anna pointed to Abigail’s face: "What you guys want to say is written on your face."

"Hahaha, Anna, you are so smart, but I still want to ask... Is Master Ulysses super cold in front of others but only gentle to you?" Abigail asked curiously.

And Kelly and Fiona looked at Anna expectantly.

Not at all, that demon was a lunatic, and very cruel to her!

Anna said: "What are you guys thinking! I'm just following Master Ulysses to learn to read. He is a very strict teacher, nothing more."

Fiona said in disbelief: "Anna, don't try to lie to us. If Master Ulysses doesn't like you, how would he teach a civilian like you to read?"

Kelly added: "That’s right, Anna. Are you honestly telling us that you really were not moved? Perhaps Young Master Parrish is not as good as your lover in your heart, but Lord Ulysses is not only a nobleman, but also a powerful four-star mage. Ah! God, if there was a mage who was willing to teach me to read, I would do whatever he wanted me to do!"

Anna got a headache listening to their twittering.

She almost forgot about having a lover. It was the excuse she said casually to the three when the demon was inside Parrish. After Bobby’s incident, Anna worried that the matter of her having a lover would reach the demon’s ears, and he would harm the men she came into contact with.

She deliberately sighed and said: "Oh, I have separated from my lover; he has shifted his love for me and went and fell in love with another woman."

After hearing these words, the three finally stopped gossiping and looked at her in shock and sympathy.

"How could this happen? Men are truly unreliable!"

"Is that woman more beautiful than you, Anna? But you are a maid in the City Lord's estate. Does that woman have an identity like yours?"

"That man is so stupid, giving up on such a good girl like you. Don't you be sad, Anna, you can find a better one!"

The three of them comforted Anna while Anna listened with a frowning face. Finally Fiona said: "Anna, your lover’s change of heart is his loss, but isn’t it just right? Between Young Master Parrish and Lord Ulysses, which one do you like better? I think no matter which one you choose, being their lover is great either one!"

I don't like any of them, I like gold coins the most! Anna replied in her heart. She was just about to speak perfunctorily when she suddenly saw a group of people coming in from the entrance of the garden. The group was headed by two people. One was the true master of the Earl estate, Earl Wilson, and as for the other...

The most conspicuous thing about that man was his long, silky silver hair. He was a head taller than Wilson Earl, and his features were fair and exquisite, as if he had walked out of a painting.

He wore a clergyman's uniform similar to Father Louis’, but his was pure white. He walked beside Earl Wilson with a graceful gait. He occasionally responded to Earl Wilson with a few words. His light blue eyes were calm and indifferent, with an elegant and holy temperament. It made people afraid to look directly at him.

Anna looked at the long, silver-haired man in astonishment, and her heart couldn’t help beating when she heard the words “Holy Son” incidentally mentioned by Earl Wilson float into her ears.

Eh, there really was a Holy Son passing by!

Then did that mean... there was hope to get rid of the demon?

Not far away, Rothgarr, who was in a good mood, just came out of the small building where Parrish lived and saw Anna staring straight at the silver-haired man. His face instantly became gloomy.

What was the matter with this human woman, falling in love with everyone she saw?
