Since she decided to tell, Bianca told everything about her herself… Or almost everything.
From her mother’s words, Barbara discovered that in fact, her grandfather was alive and was an Overlord, but he had more than 300 children and Bianca’s late parents, although they had some high status for common people, were not from the main house. Bianca recounted that her parents died because of a family conspiracy, although she still had no proof. As her parents were gaining more and more power and status, the siblings’ eyes were not happy and must have set them up.
At the time, she barely survived and ended up inheriting her parents’ inheritance, which was good enough for her to live a comfortable life.
Although she thought about getting revenge, it wasn’t easy at all. After having a daughter, she put revenge aside, even severed ties with her family and changed her last name. The only thing she took with her was her parents’ inheritance, which was almost non-existent…
Not going into too much detail, she finished the summary, but Barbara couldn’t wrap her mind around it being that simple since her grandparents’ inheritance was apparently not small.
“Fortunately, I inherited my mother’s gifts and managed to prosper.” Bianca said with a small, gentle smile, “Unlike my father, my mother was very talented in managing to make investments. With her help, my father managed to go further and further…”
At this point in the conversation, someone had already brought them tea. It was no ordinary tea; it was something very good for the body and mind, and it took a while to prepare. The instant she finished talking this far, Bianca drank some tea and sighed in satisfaction.
At this moment, after listening to Bianca’s entire story, the corners of Amon’s lips slightly curved, forming a beautiful grin. His deep-set eyes had a soft glow, as if they were filled with soft moonlight. Amon had excellent facial features to begin with. The smile on his face made him look much more handsome.
‘He’s showing emotions more often… I think it’s happening…’ Bianca muttered in her mind as she looked at Amon with extreme interest.
Barbara didn’t notice anything different. Despite feeling mesmerized by Amon’s smile, she was relatively used to seeing him smile.
“Amon, after hearing a little of my story, you despise me…” She said that, but then Bianca added, “Wait, let me rephrase that sentence; now that you know more about me, do you think that I am not worthy to be with you?”
“Huh?” Amon was a little confused. “Wouldn’t it be me who is not worthy of you?”
In Amon’s mind things worked in a simple way when thinking about it: She was someone of status and power, while he could even be considered a genius. But the weight was not the same.
“Oh?” Bianca’s interest was piqued.
Even Barbara was surprised by this answer. Her eyes blinked a few times.
Bianca asked with a small smile while charmingly arching one of her eyebrows, “Why do you say that, Amon?”
“There are several points to consider,” Amon said slowly. Although initially he was affected by her charm, he still managed to remain calm, “You are very beautiful, very much so. You’re also powerful, to the point where I can’t see through you. You have a complicated family history, but it was well resolved by you, who possibly had several conquests in addition to the ones you told me about. There is more, though these are the most obvious ones I can think of at the moment.”
“But aren’t you a peerless genius, someone with a bright future? Don’t you think you’re at a disadvantage by taking that into consideration?” Bianca still continued with a slight smile as she rested her left hand on the left side of her face.
“That might be true,” Amon thought and said, “However, as you yourself said, I’m promising and quite valued at the university these days. However, this is irrelevant to say the least. These achievements are nothing more than achievements that can become irrelevant at any moment, as they do not give me a solid foundation. At the moment, I have some advantages, but the moment I stop showing value, it will be my downfall. At the current time, I don’t have a solid foundation to stand on, unlike you.”
Amon’s words made the mother-daughter pair think. Honestly, not even Bianca thought about it from that point of view. But it was indeed the truth; the instant he wouldn’t seem to show value, wouldn’t that be the moment that all the benefits he currently gained would be withdrawn?
However, if it were the opposite, were Bianca to suffer an accident, she already had many achievements that would be difficult for her to lose. Although life wasn’t necessarily measured this way, saying that a relationship was measured by benefits might be a mistake, but it was a fact that Bianca would bring much more benefit to Amon in this relationship. She could even make him shine even brighter as a genius with the resources she had at hand…
Bianca opened her lips to say something, but was cut off.
“But, I will prove myself worthy of you… to both of you,” Amon’s voice deepened with a magnetic hoarseness that left both girls stunned, “Both as a person and companion I will also do my best, giving more than 100% of myself so that one day I become an Overlord, and on that day I will prove myself worthy of the trust you placed on me by choosing me as a partner.”
The aura around Amon was almost intoxicating. For a few minutes, the mother-daughter pair were silent. Amon was also silent when he finished speaking. He said everything he felt at that moment, as well as taking all of his grandparents’ teachings seriously. One of them was to always be honest with the women you want to share your life with. Only then would you be able to live a happy life and face any obstacle.
He was sincere when he said all that. He also understood that he wasn’t worthy of Bianca at that moment, even though it seemed like she thought of things oppositely. However, he didn’t feel proud that she thought that way; he even felt a little bit of fear, since he felt that he could lose her if he wasn’t sincere at that moment.
Bianca, who was thinking of saying that she thought that way because she already had a relationship with another man and had a daughter in that previous relationship, already received the answer she wanted and was satisfied. She could understand from Amon’s words that he didn’t care about it her past and didn’t even see it as a disadvantage. Continuing to talk about this subject no longer made sense to her. She was already very happy and satisfied with what she heard from him.
‘As expected, he’s different…’ 𝚘𝚟𝚕．ｔ
