Chapter 31
"Hmm, everyone knows that I love her deeply . " Logan nodded . There was nothing to hide, half of the whole Empire knew of his deep love anyway .
"Wonderful! It is beautiful to see you love your wife deeply but as an Emperor, you have your duty to fulfil, Emperor Loret . How about you take my 36th daughter, Shirley Ashton as your concubine, her talent is no less than yours, in fact, she can even be said to be the gem of my Empire . " Emperor Ashton boasted proudly .
"This…" Logan had a difficult expression on his face . He was tempted by this offer, but he knew the consequences of accepting this offer .
"What? If it's the age, she is only 16 years old, the perfect age to get married . If you don't like that, you can wait for a few years to take her as your concubine!" Emperor Ashton was determined to beat his rival, he possibly wouldn't back out after coming this far .
"Your offer is tempting, Emperor Ashton . But I would have to gracefully decline your offer or else I wouldn't even know how I died . " Logan shook his head sadly .
"Huh? Hehe, I see Emperor Loret is either henpecked or blackmailed . How about this . . I wouldn't mind marrying her to Prince Davis, he can take her as his first wife after he turned 16 . " Emperor Ashton compromised, but he thought that this was also a good proposition to settle too .
"This can be accepted!"
"Perfect!"
"Eh?" Davis made a sound of incomprehension . The change of proposition was so quick that he couldn't fathom what had happened . He was just enjoying the show, seeing his father placed in a difficult position was fun, and then out of nowhere, he got engaged .
"Hehe, looks like the little prince is pretty happy . Don't worry Prince Davis, I will surely protect your bride from harm's way until you grow up!" Emperor Ashton declared proudly .
Davis nodded his head absentmindedly . His brain couldn't catch up to the conversation that is taking place right now .
After a few moments, he came out of his reverie . Realisation dawned upon him .
'Bastard! He set me up!' Davis felt angry . His father didn't even get his permission . It was one thing if he were truly a 5 year old child, but he was not . How can he possibly accept this?
He stayed silent . He should not use Soul Transmission . He couldn't possibly lash out and start throwing a tantrum, could he?
Discussion went on . .
After a few hours .
"Alright then, we'll take our leave . If an opportunity presents itself, we shall meet again . " Emperor Claymore bid farewell .
"Haha, hope my gift satisfied you . Then I'll also take my leave . " Emperor Ross left swiftly .
"I would relay the matter about the engagement to Shirley, there's no need to worry if she will back out of this, as I would take care of it . " Emperor Ashton comforted and left .
Empress Ruth who was about to leave, noticed Davis's gaze on her . She smiled and walked to Davis elegantly .
Davis turned nervous immediately . He could see her peaks sway left and right .
She arrived in front of Davis, bent down and pinched his cheeks .
He froze, his eyes hadn't moved away from her cleavage .
"What a cute child!" Empress Ruth could see that Davis was intently gazing at her peaks . She smirked, she didn't take it to heart as he was only 5 years old . She thought it was his curiosity which led him to view her proud assets .
'A naughty one at that . ' She thought to herself .
"Then I will also bid farewell, Emperor Loret . "
After that she left .

Davis was still frozen . She was too beautiful . Her clothes couldn't hide her assets . Even though he had seen a lot in his previous life, he never had this much of a close contact . He thought that it was exhilarating . His heart kept pounding . Finally, after a few moments he shook his head .
'I fucked up!' He thought ruefully . He was feeling sad that he didn't manage to leave a good impression on her for some reason .
He found his father leaving the hall stealthily . He ran to him quickly .
"Father! What is the meaning of this?" Davis caught his sleeves and asked angrily .
Logan smiled sheepishly and left without saying anything .
"Damn you!" Davis shouted, he couldn't care less anymore .
Laughter sounds echoed across the hall . Everyone in the Royal Castle knew that their relationship was amiable, so they didn't think deep about it .
… . .
Davis headed to the study to complain to his mother .
He indignantly walked with sturdy steps . He reached the Empress's quarters and opened it . No one obstructed him .
"Mom! That… Father, he…" Davis was just about to report his grievance .
"Hahaha! Davis, I just now heard about it . " Claire said .
"Ahh! He! How could he? He didn't even ask for my approval . How can he do this to me?" Davis was clearly feeling not good . He had his own plans for his future soul mate .
"Sorry Davis, He has no choice but to sacrifice you in this kind of proposition . " Claire said sadly .
"You possibly couldn't want your father to marry again, could you?" Claire had tears in her eyes when she asked that .
"No mom! It's just tha . . "
"Enough Davis, you would do well to see through this marriage!" Claire declared .
"But mom! I have no feelings for the other party!" Davis wasn't giving up either .
"Feelings can be developed over time, Davis! This engagement is already set in motion . If you back out now, wouldn't the women you're engaged to receive a severe backlash to her dignity? How could she marry again? Think about what she will feel?"
Davis was tongue tied . He couldn't counter that . He gave up powerlessly .
"Don't worry Davis . Mom won't bicker if you get more women to marry . "
"But… mom? Aren't you against the idea of polygamy?" Davis couldn't understand .
"No, it's not like that, it's just that I'm extremely selfish and won't hand over my husband to any other women . " She declared with an unwavering face .
"Anyway, aren't you lucky? You have two wives already set in stone for you!"
"Eh? Two?" He was seriously dumbfounded this time .
"Oh, I thought that we should bring this matter up when you are 8 years old, so nobody told you . You were already engaged to the Cauldon Family's Young Mistress even before you were born . "
"What!? But how?"
"Uhh, during the rebellion . We had to gather many allies as we can . I couldn't possibly have Logan marry a concubine from the Cauldon Family . So, I reluctantly agreed to engage you to their family's Young Mistress . "
Davis had black lines on his face . He now knew why his mother supported his father, because he was screwed over by the both of them .
