Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 690 I’ve Had My Eyes On You

Davis inwardly heaved a sigh as he saw that she wasn’t deeply offended by his lack of attention to her. At least, it looked like she still has her sanity, maintaining calm over emotions, or so he thought.

He walked inside her house with his hands behind his back and turned to look at her when he heard the door creak close behind him. His lips curved into an amused smile.

"Why did you come here? I thought you would be with your newly unwedded wife..." Princess Isabella spoke, openly displaying her dissatisfaction with her words.

’Unwedded... wife... really?’ Davis shook his head wryly, ’How can a woman be a wife if she’s not wed?’

However, from these few words, he could tell that she was not trying to offend him by saying he brought an unmarried woman to the house.

"Of course, it’s to visit my youngest mistress!~"

Davis smilingly teased.

"Oh~ Am I not your Young Mistress anymore but youngest mistress?" Princess Isabella enunciated the word ’youngest’ while even she felt her face warm up. She could see that their conversation was clearly moving to the verge of flirting with each other!

Davis realized this as he became taken aback. He coughed and cleared his throat. As always, when there was nothing to say, one should bring up ongoing matters that required attention or talk about the general flow of things.

Usually, he would’ve done that but since the problem was solved, he didn’t use small talk to create the mood.

Instead, he wanted to know about her feelings to their current vague relationship and develop it if possible, just like how he did it with Evelynn just before their marriage.

However, to nurture feelings... Even he felt that it was impossible...

How could he nurture feelings with three women at the same time?

He felt that he was bound to mess up somewhere...

Nevertheless, he still wanted to try.

"Isabella, what do you think about me?" Davis asked in a sincere and curious tone.

Princess Isabella became taken aback as she wondered what suddenly happened with him. Her lips moved as she tried to answer in response.

"I don’t know..."

"If you really don’t know, then why did you let me in and even closed the door?" He pushed.

Princess Isabella became flustered as her eyelids shook.

"That’s what I’m trying to figure out myself... You little scoundrel!~"

Davis’s jaw fell slightly agape.

’Little scoundrel?’

’Little... little... little....’ Her voice echoed in his ears as if it were a curse.

Just even he was about to retort, he realized that even with his soul age measured, he still did not reach up to her age.

Princess Isabella was around fifty years old, an age where she could be old and become a grandmother if she were a complete mortal, but as a cultivator, there was no aging to her youthful countenance that was full of charm.

Nevertheless, when he realized that in front of him was a confused fifty-year-old maiden, he became flabbergasted.

’Well, at least, she’s not worse than Haus who has just lost his virginity a few years ago...’

Haus was none other than the more than a hundred-year-old man who pursued Sasha vehemently before they somehow connected with each other through a series of trust and betrayals.

They had an age difference of over a hundred years but even then, did they not become as one now?

Davis felt his confidence towards Princess Isabella increase! So what if she was older than him by ten something years in terms of soul age?

In the cultivation world, age in the difference of hundreds didn’t matter at all!

"Then... How do you feel about the two women who have already pledged their love to me?" Davis asked another question.

He didn’t change the topic but tried to get in from this way.

Comparison!

It was such a cheapskate move but he felt that he didn’t have a choice as he didn’t want to let Princess Isabella go! He wanted her all to himself like a toad lusting after a swan!

"I..." Princess Isabella became hesitant.

Her facial expression revealed that she clearly didn’t want to discuss this topic but for some reason, she opened her mouth.

"Your wife, Evelynn is a kind and considerate woman. She relies on you all the time and gives her everything for you from what I’ve seen. However, you took advantage of her feelings towards you and even went after another woman..."

Davis pursed his lips on embarrassment as he heard her speak. He shrugged as he had no excuse for this statement of hers as it was true as it could get...

However, he finally understood something else.

"You’ve been observing us?"

Princess Isabella smacked her lips and looked at his eyes for a while before she nodded her head.

"I was envious of you two..."

Davis’s expression changed as he became shocked! The confession that made her seem less likely of the Empress she was, came off as a shock to him!

"From when?" He couldn’t help but subconsciously ask.

Princess Isabella did not reply to his question. Instead, she averted her gaze and momentarily sighed, "It was rather a petty and insignificant thought... I didn’t think that single thought would gnaw on my heart, making me think what if..."

She abruptly paused causing Davis to prompt, "... What if?"

Princess Isabella bit her lips and looked at him in the eyes, "... I had you instead of her..."

Davis felt his heart skip a beat.

Princess Isabella stared at his changing expression for a while before she continued.

"The envious feelings I felt when I saw you two interact with each other without any constraints, even though you can entirely look down on her and place her in a locked up palace while you pursue your cultivation path as many other men would do..."

"This is something as a person living in a Royal Palace, I thought I would never see in my life..."

Princess Isabella shook her head, "At your little sister’s Coming of Age Ceremony, I felt cautious of you but decided to pull you over to the Ruth Empire’s good side by having you participate in the Immortal Inheritance of my Empire."

"At that time, I never expected for you to hand over that once in a lifetime opportunity to Evelynn... Hehe..." She laughed as if she couldn’t believe it.

"I merely thought that with your master behind you back, an Immortal existence, you didn’t need the Immortal Inheritance of my Empire but after traveling with you and your family all this time, it is clear that I am wrong."

"I can now say you did that not because of having your master as a backer but you truly care for Evelynn, and that was when I became truly envious of her..."

Princess Isabella wryly smiled.

"As for Natalya, needless to say, I don’t know anything about her. Hence, I can’t say anything."

Davis stared at Princess Isabella in a trance for a while before he closed his eyes. When he reopened his eyes, a certain flint flashed past his eyes as he abruptly asked.

"Isabella, do you remember the time we first met?"

Princess Isabella laughed as she instantly remembered.

"At the Tyrannical Blue Ape Mountain Range? In that cave behind the waterfall?"

Davis shook his head, "When you were an Empress, and when I was nothing but a five-year-old kid..."

Princess Isabella became taken aback before that nostalgic scene flashed past her mind. At that time, she remembered that her twin peaks were being stared at by the five-year-old Davis.

Any child would more or less have curiosity, so she wasn’t aversed to his gaze at that time but when she thought of what he has become now, her cheeks couldn’t help but turn red.

"You... Why are you bringing that up now?"

Seeing her becoming flustered, Davis chuckled, "I’ve had my eyes on you from that time..."

"You!"

Princess Isabella widened her eyes at this revelation.
