Madam, You Wouldn't Want Your Identity as a Witch to Be Exposed, Would You - Chapter 49

Chapter 49: We Are Studying

***

At this moment, Alice was quite brazenly pressing down on Eve, both hands firmly holding Eve’s shoulders, the smile on her face hadn’t even had time to switch from its alluring appearance to her usual dignified demeanor.

Well, now the princess of contrasts has slipped up, and it happened right in front of her own mother.

Although Eve couldn’t clearly see the situation while being pressed underneath, she could easily sense the current awkwardness from the deafening silence around them.

Eve guessed that Chancelianne must have been shocked nearly unconscious, her well-behaved daughter had always maintained an appearance of obedience, grace, and dignity throughout her growth.

But today she was playing female-oriented stack game with her friend who was brought home for the first time?

Who wouldn’t be devastated seeing this?

“Mo-Mother, Your Majesty?”

Princess Alice was already too nervous to speak, her body trembling slightly. Eve could clearly feel the hands pressing on her shoulders constantly shaking.

Along with her heavy breathing, the beautiful curves of her chest rose and fell continuously, looking extremely enticing.

Eve could sense her emotions, though it wasn’t clear whether it was fear or excitement…

However, based on Eve’s understanding of the princess, it was probably the latter.

“Alice, what… what are you two doing?”

Chancelianne’s tone became serious. Her presence, which already carried an natural air of authority, suddenly became even more oppressive.

“We…”

“I deeply apologize, Your Majesty the Empress. It was my responsibility. When cleaning the floor this morning, it seems I didn’t dry it completely, causing the Princess to slip. If Miss Eve hadn’t supported her in time, the Princess might have hit her head on the ground.”

Seeing the situation about to develop to an irreversible point, the maid quickly stepped forward to explain for the two.

Hearing the maid’s explanation, Chancelianne’s expression showed no signs of softening. She just tilted her head back, continuing to examine Eve with a superior gaze.

That gaze carried hints of arrogance and disdain, the kind of sublime expression that would excite certain individuals.

Of course, if madam were to lift her skirt, that would be even more…

“Ahem, so that’s what happened. I’m sorry for misunderstanding you both.”

Chancelianne nodded slightly to Eve, though her tone carried no sense of apology.

She was very suspicious whether Eve was actually someone trying to court her precious daughter?

Was it really just an accidental fall?

If either Alice or Eve had given this explanation, Chancelianne might have felt suspicious.

But since Alice’s maid said so, she couldn’t really say much more.

After all, the trust the Imperial family placed in maids allowed to closely attend to Alice was evident.

“Let’s set this matter aside for now. I just saw a draft paper on the table, and I’m very interested in the magic formula on it.”

“Alice, did you write this?”

Chancelianne put away her disdainful expression and slowly walked to the table to pick up the draft paper.

The exquisite magic formula on it made her face light up repeatedly with joy. It had to be said, this formula was written beautifully.

Moreover, this formula could clearly perfectly solve the problem her friend had encountered.

“No, Mother Your Majesty, Miss Eve wrote this. I helped her with a small favor, and she said she wanted to use this formula as thanks.”

Alice hurriedly stood up and answered softly.

To be honest, she got a headache just looking at these things. When Eve was explaining it to her earlier, all she could think about was Eve wearing a sunny teacher’s outfit.

It was like knowledge flowing through her brain without leaving a trace.

“You wrote this?”

Chancelianne showed an expression of surprise. She suddenly felt that if it was Eve, maybe it wouldn’t be so bad to let her court her precious daughter.

She had thought her daughter was engaging in improper behavior with her, but unexpectedly, they were actually studying in private…

Moreover, Chancelianne didn’t understand, being willing to casually give out such a formula, what exactly did her precious daughter do? What warranted Eve giving such a reward?

In Chancelianne’s eyes, the value of this magic formula was worth several times more than offering oneself in marriage.

“Yes, just something I casually researched to pass the time. It’s not particularly profound as far as magic formulas go.”

Eve wasn’t lying at all about this, what was a delicacy to humans was just an elementary school puzzle game to Eve the witch.

“Miss Eve, is it? You’re being too modest. What I mean is…”

The Eve before her eyes needed to be properly secured!

“Are you free this evening? Would you honor us by attending my banquet?”

Chancelianne carefully put away that draft paper, and the look in her eyes toward Eve also gained several degrees of warmth.
