576 How Shameless!
When Huanhuan returned to her residence, it was already dark, but there was no sign of Murphy in the house.
Was he not back yet?
Huanhuan sat down on a tree stump at the door and rested her chin on her hands, wondering how she should face Murphy next.
She felt that no matter what she did, it would be awkward!
She slapped her forehead twice and blamed herself. “You fool, you actually made such a big mistake!”
Little Brat said leisurely, “Stop hitting yourself. You’re already stupid enough. If you injure your head, how will you live?”
“I really didn’t expect Murphy to have such a big misunderstanding about me. If I had known this would happen, I would have explained the misunderstanding to him immediately!”
“Alright, things have already come to this. And it’s not entirely your fault. The Elven Queen can only blame herself for meddling too much. If she hadn’t forced you to go to the spider forest, Murphy wouldn’t have mistaken you for being deeply in love with him.”
Speak of the devil…
As soon as Little Brat finished speaking, the Elven Queen appeared.
She walked over gracefully.
Behind her were four elf guards. Huanhuan recognized them at a glance as the same guys who threw her into the spider forest.
Huanhuan immediately stood up. “Your Majesty, why are you here?”
The Elven Queen stopped in front of her and smiled. “I came to talk to you.”
Huanhuan thought to herself that she had nothing to say to her, but one shouldn’t slap a smiling person. Moreover, the other party was an elder. Even though Huanhuan had doubts, she still maintained a polite appearance. “Do you want to come in and sit?”
The Elven Queen glanced sideways at the guards. “Wait for me outside.”
“Alright.”
The Elven Queen walked into the house and glanced at the furniture. “This is where Murphy grew up. I used to come here often, but I haven’t been here much since he came of age.”
Huanhuan beckoned her to sit down and made her a cup of flower tea.
The Elven Queen picked up the teacup and took a sip. She was quite satisfied. “This tea tastes good. It’s fresh and elegant. It’s been hard on you.”
Huanhuan sat in the chair opposite her with a cup of tea in her hand. She didn’t speak and waited quietly for her to explain her intentions.
“I heard that Murphy took you to the top of the mountain this afternoon?”
Huanhuan nodded. “Yes.”
“You should have seen the Tree of Life on the mountaintop, right?”
Huanhuan nodded again. “I did. It’s beautiful.”
The Elven Queen smiled and said, “There’s a custom among us elves. Every couple that loves each other will go to the Tree of Life and express their love for each other. This way, they can obtain the blessing of the Tree of Life. From then on, they’ll be in love forever.”
Huanhuan did not expect such a custom to exist.
It seemed that Murphy had already decided to confess to her when he decided to take her to see the Tree of Life.
But she didn’t know anything. In the end, she made such a big mistake.
Huanhuan didn’t speak. The Elven Queen thought she was just shy, so she continued, “I know you and Murphy are truly in love. After all you’ve been through, I understand how important you are to Murphy. I can’t remove you from his heart, so I can only choose to compromise. As long as you promise me that you’ll only love Murphy in this life, I’ll give you my blessings.”
The Elven Queen thought that her words had given Huanhuan enough face.
But Huanhuan did not feel honored at all.
She wanted to tell the Elven Queen that she didn’t love her son, but reason told her that she couldn’t not tell the truth now.
At least not until Cyril had finished all the papers and she got her hands on them. Only then could she tell the truth about her and Murphy pretending to be engaged.
Before that, if she told the truth, the Elven Queen would definitely be furious and chase her out of Elven God Mountain.
Huanhuan pondered for a moment and said cautiously, “I’m very touched by your concession, but I still have four mates at home. I love them very much, so I can’t agree to your request because I can’t only love Murphy.”
The Elven Queen frowned. “They’re just four rude and barbaric beasts. In comparison, not only is Murphy from a noble family but his appearance and strength are also very outstanding. He’s also very devoted to you. With Murphy, there’s no need for those four beast mates to exist. Abandon them.”
Huanhuan was already a little angry.
She didn’t care what others said about her.
But she couldn’t tolerate anyone talking about her family, not even a word!
Huanhuan said expressionlessly, “I can’t abandon any of them. Besides, I’ve already given birth to their children. I can’t abandon my own children. Your Majesty is a mother too. I believe you can understand me.”
“Children?” The Elven Queen was very surprised. “You’ve already given birth?”
“Yes, I already have six children.”
The Elven Queen thought that Huanhuan only had mates. She had never thought that she would already have children. From her appearance, she did not look like a woman who already had six children.
Once a woman had children, it was equivalent to having blood ties.
The Elven Queen’s disgust for Huanhuan rose again. She already had mates and children, but she still wanted to seduce her son. How shameless!
But Murphy liked Huanhuan.
No matter how annoyed the Elven Queen was, she could only suppress her disgust in order to keep her son. She said word by word, “It doesn’t matter if you have children. You and Murphy are still young anyway. You’ll have a lot of children in the future. As for your previous children, just pretend you never had any.”
“I’m sorry, but I can’t agree.” Huanhuan refused without hesitation.
The Elven Queen slammed the cup on the table and said angrily, “I’ve already given in very much by enduring your background. Don’t push your luck!”
“I’ve never thought there was anything wrong with my background. Similarly, I don’t think you’re from a noble family.”
The Elven Queen raised her chin, her gaze arrogant. “How could you say that? Beasts are born lowly and dirty. You’re as disgusting as night elves. If it weren’t for Murphy, you wouldn’t even be qualified to enter Elven God Mountain.”
“Don’t worry, I’ll just be staying here for another two days. I’ll be gone for good soon. You’ll never see me again.”
“It doesn’t matter if you leave, but Murphy has to stay!”
Huanhuan sneered. “It’s Murphy’s freedom to go wherever he wants. No one can interfere.”
“I’m his mother. If I want him to stay, he has to stay!” The Elven Queen stood up and looked down at her. “I originally planned to have a good chat with you. As long as you were willing to sever ties with your mates and children, I’d tolerate you staying with Murphy. But now it seems that I’ve overestimated my tolerance for you. I have to use special methods to deal with an ungrateful female beast like you.”
