Rejected the Demon’s Marriage Proposal Thousands of Times Chapter 17.2

New Gossip (2)

She had traveled into this world for no reason, and she believed that the original Anna must have exchanged bodies with her. It might be difficult for that Anna to adapt at first to modern society, but she believed that she would soon fall in love with the modern times, which was like a paradise compared to this world, and would help take care of her family in her stead.

As for her, she was unlucky to travel to this world, but she would not mope around; she would work hard to live a good life, and would take good care of the lovely family members of this original body.

The next day, Anna went to work as usual, while Evan and Gaea went to the tavern master Abbas, asking him to mediate the situation.

After delivering food to Parrish, Anna stood quietly on the side as usual.

What made her feel a little puzzled was that after possessing Ulysses, the demon seemed not at all interested in retrieving her soul anymore. These days, he didn't even take the initiative to say anything to her.

She couldn't help but start daydreaming; could it be that he was already eyeing someone else? Like the soul of Parrish? Otherwise, why would the demon stay with Parrish all the time and not continue to make moves on her?

But... They were both male, so how would the demon trick Parrish into giving up his soul? Hmm... She was very sure that Parrish was heterosexual, and if the demon proposed to him, Parrish would definitely turn him down.

Thinking about it, there seemed to be other ways besides proposing marriage to obtain human souls.

Anna was guessing what else the demon could do to trick a human of their soul when she heard Parrish suddenly say, "My dear Anna, I recently heard a very interesting rumor."

Anna's heart jumped. She didn't expect the rumor to reach Parrish's ears so quickly.

Now that things had come to this point, she couldn’t hide. It was better to make good use of this opportunity. Who knows, maybe this was a chance to solve the matter involving Bobby!

"What kind of interesting rumors?" Anna, the initiator of said rumors, looked at a loss.

"It's about Anna and me." Parrish said and laughed. "I heard that in order to marry you, I cling to you every day to teach you literacy."

Anna showed surprise on her face, and then said very angrily: "I don't know who it was that spread such a disgusting rumor to ruin the reputation of Young Master! How awful!"

Parrish smiled, "When you asked me to teach you literacy that day, we were the only people present."

Hearing this, Anna seemed to have thought of something. Her expression suddenly looked a little guilty.

Parrish, who had been paying attention to Anna's expression, asked, "Anna, have you thought of something?"

Anna hesitated and said: "Yes, Young Master... I remember I told others that I asked you to teach me literacy, but I never said what the rumors said!"

"Don't be nervous, dear, of course I believe you. But it's not good for my father to hear these kinds of rumors." Parrish smiled consciously and tolerantly.

Anna nodded quickly: "I understand, Young Master Parrish, I will clarify everything immediately!"

Parrish smiled, "That's good."

After solving this trivial matter, Parrish happily continued eating his meal again.

And Rothgarr, who was a bystander like usual, couldn't help but sneer in his heart after watching Anna's artificial performance. Perhaps Anna's performance could fool Parrish, but it definitely couldn’t fool him, who knew Anna's true nature.

After waiting for so many days, she had no signs of surrendering, and he became impatient.

After Parrish finished eating, Anna quickly left with the food box, walking more hurriedly than before.

When Abigail and the others saw Anna, there was a depressed look on her face.

The three of them rarely saw Anna so sad, and quickly asked her what had happened.

Anna looked at the three and said angrily: "Did you tell the others what I told you?"

The three of them felt guilty when they heard her accusation. They were interested in chatting in their free time. Of course, they didn't only chat with Anna, and when they were chatting, wasn’t it normal to share a few interesting things they heard from others?

The three looked at each other, and Abigail said carefully: "Anna, what are you talking about?"

Anna said, "Did you tell anyone that Young Master Parrish is teaching me to read in order to marry me?"

Abigail quickly said: "No! We dare not go around saying that Young Master Parrish asked you to marry him! We only said that he is teaching you literacy... That should be fine to tell others about, right?"

"But the problem is, the young master didn't teach me to read!" Anna said deliberately angrily, "I was just asking him at that time!"

The three of them were taken aback, and couldn't help but think back to what Anna said then... She really didn't seem to say that the young master had promised to teach her literacy!

Fiona thought of the Young Master Parrish who had frightened her that day. She couldn't help but tremble, and asked quickly: "Could it be that...Young Master Parrish heard the rumors?"

Anna said, "Yes, Young Master Parrish was very angry. He called me in to talk for a long time, saying that it is not good for the City Lord to know about this, and he let me clarify the matter by myself. The previous rumors were spread by you three, so you all must help me clarify it!"

Anna's words could be said to be based on facts, but in the ears of Fiona and the others, they heard another meaning.

Young Master Parrish was afraid that the rumors would reach the City Lord’s ears and would hurt Anna, so the rumors must be eliminated!

The three of them nodded quickly; the rumors had initially spread from them. Although it was not their fault that the rumors spread to its current state, they also had to bear certain responsibilities.

Seeing the three of them agree, Anna felt that this matter should be considered resolved.
