Chapter 825 A Devil & A Hunter (2)



After shutting down Ace, both of them looked at each other with a piercing gaze.

Eva smiled coldly as she said, "Since you want to talk, let's talk. I so happen to be wanted to have a good chat with you for a long time now."

Thereafter, she turned around and headed towards a jade table with large throne-like chairs and sat on the position of the head. Alina squinted her eyes, looking at smiling Eva, and then sat right in front of her.

"Since you're a guest, I'll give you the courtesy to go first," Eva spoke while putting her hand under her sharp chin. She just looked like a Queen looking down on her subjects.

However, Alina's expression suddenly returned to impassiveness before she smiled all of a sudden and sat just as imposingly as Eva; she stated, "Alright, I want to know why you tricked my brother into a marriage without gaining his approval?"

Eva's bewitching eyes flutter at this question, 'So he really went fully honest with her to even tell her about this? Well, at least he's being honest with her, unlike the time when he tried to hide those three women...humph!'

Her eyes when cold as she replied, "I don't think this should matter to you, right? Besides, I'm a straightforward person, and since I discovered my soulmate, I don't hesitate to act. Unlike a certain someone who just abandoned someone after using them."

Alina clenched the grip of the chair, but her expression didn't change, "I never abandoned him, and I don't need to explain it to you as long as he understands. I'll seek his forgiveness, not yours."

"Heh, really? Then why do you think I need to explain my love life to you? But let me make something absolutely clear in case you have some very grave misunderstanding. My actions were indeed not right, but at the end of the day, without his recognition, I would've never told him about bounding my life with him.

"But you know what? He accepted me right there and then, even gave me a life-changing opportunity. He's not just my savior but the love of my life, and I can die for him and will die with him. No one matter to me more than him. I can proudly say that for I have this Ring of Endearment!"

Eva spitefully stated while showing her beautiful Ring of Endearment to Alina, who was almost seething at this moment.

Despite not wanting to admit it, Alina has no choice but to admit that Eva had made a gamble that time and it paid off far more than she could ever hope for. Although Ace omitted the details about how this Ring of Endearment was formed, he indeed told her just what kind of symbol that Ring was.

She was not angry at Eva but at herself, and she was jealous of her and envied her because she got the only thing that a woman wanted in their life, love.

But now it was Eva's turn to ask her question, and she was not in conflict with herself like her, "Now, can you tell me why did you go back for him when you have everything?"

Alina was startled by this question and replied rage fully, "Because I wanted to take him back with me. To mend the mistake I'd made in the past."

"Is that so? Then what? I mean, you do understand that in human customs, a human married at around the age of 12. What if he had already married a mortal? Then what?" Eva questioned with a strange smile.

"Then I would've left him alone!" Alina replied without hesitation, "What you're getting at?"

"If that's the case, then why do you think his position is any different from that scenario? He's already married, then why you're interfering in his life?" Eva instantly hit the bullseye mercilessly.

"That's enough, Eva!" Ace's deep voice sounded at this moment in Eva's mind. He didn't want this thing to continue as this was not heading in the direction he was hoping for. On the contrary, Eva was destroying Alina!

Although what Eva said was logical and even painfully true, this didn't matter to him since he wanted to keep Alina to himself, at least until he did something about the Blood Ancestor.

Furthermore, this reunion was turning into something Ace had never imagined, and he was really starting to wonder if he should've just told her a lie.

"You stay out of it!" Eva retorted with squinted eyes, "I know you care about her, but I need to know she cared about you enough not to put you in any harm's way! Just let me do this, and trust me, everything will be fine once I bring out the true feeling of her heart. It's also for her own good!"

Ace was speechless when he heard this unexpected response, "Just what in the world are you planning?"

"Guess!" Eva snorted unhappily, clearly having no intention of revealing it to her philanderer husband.

Alina was completely silent by this question as her mind turned chaotic because Eva's question was on the mark.

Why didn't she leave now since this wasn't any different from the situation Eva had described before? Yet here she was confronting Eva, for what exactly?

Did she want to seek justice for Ace or want to make Eva admit her mistake and then leave Ace? Was she even capable of that? Then what in the world was she doing here, coming between Ace and Eva headstrong like this?

Her mind turned chaotic just thinking about it, and she couldn't get an answer. While her heart felt more terrible the more she thought about it. That pain kept increasing, not decreasing at all.

At this moment, Eva softly spoke again, "Let me tell you why you're still here and doing all this."

Alina looked at Eva confusingly, and a ray of hope appeared since she couldn't find that answer herself. So, she really hoped Eva told her about it.

Eva smiled meaningfully and replied, "You were never here to meet with your brother. Instead, you were here to seek your childhood sweetheart!"
