Denied: A Devil’s Thousandth Proposal

Ch18 Extortion

Clearly, he had malicious intentions! He's a devil, and he's obviously a master at manipulating people's hearts. He deliberately wanted to isolate her so that only he could give her warmth, and naturally she would agree to his marriage proposal.

Fortunately, she saw through everything. Anyone can stir up trouble.

Lilian slowly walked up to the three maids and whispered, "Young Master Parish has left. Aren't you going to stand up?"

The three looked at her with complicated expressions. Fiona asked her in confusion, "Why didn't you accept Young Master Parish's marriage proposal? Isn't that what everyone dreams of?"

“Sigh, it’s a long story.” Lilian put on a melancholy expression that said, “I have a story to tell, so come and ask me.” She reached out and pulled the three of them up one by one. “Let’s go, let’s not bother Young Master Parish anymore.”

Still shaken by what had just happened, the three of them didn't say much and silently walked away with Lilian .

The four of them had almost reached the kitchen when Lilian stopped, turned around and looked at the three of them, saying, "Actually, I have a lover."

The three men had different expressions, and Abigail immediately retorted, "How could your lover possibly compare to Master Parish?"

Lilian thought to herself, "Isn't anyone better than the devil who wants to kill you?"

“Of course he can’t compare to Master Parrish, but I love him. In my heart, he is the best. I can’t accept anyone else’s proposal,” Lilian sighed.

just on the verge of conflict with Lilian seemed to have their hostility towards her vanish in an instant after being frightened by Young Master Parish and now hearing that Lilian had a lover.

It turns out that Lilian didn't want to compete with them for Young Master Parish!

Kelly asked, a hint of curiosity in her voice, almost tentatively, "But Master Parish seems to love you very much..."

Lilian shook her head: "That's all Young Master Parish's misconception. Do you know how I met Young Master Parish?"

Lilian expectantly , waiting for her answer.

Lilian said, "That day, I accidentally fell in front of Master Parrish's carriage, and he said, 'What a clumsy little wildcat, so charming...' and then he proposed to me."

Upon hearing this inside information, the three women's eyes widened, and they all wished they were the ones who had fallen in front of the young master's carriage that day!

Lilian noticed the expressions on the three people's faces and couldn't help but chuckle to herself, but she sighed on the surface, "Actually, I came to the Earl's kitchen just to earn money to support my family... You all saw it just now, I rejected Young Master Parish's marriage proposal, my lover is still waiting for me."

"You did the right thing!" Abigail said excitedly, her eyes shining as she grabbed Lilian 's hand. "The love between you and your partner is so touching. You two will definitely get married and have lots and lots of children!"

Fiona also grabbed Lilian 's hand and said, "Yes, Lilian . You must not accept Young Master Parish's marriage proposal. A marriage without love is not blessed by the goddess."

“That’s right, we will all pray to the goddess for you and your loved one.” Kelly also wanted to grab him, but Lilian had no hands left for her to grab, so she simply took Lilian ’s arm, her expression very sincere.

Lilian smiled meaningfully: "Thank you for your blessings, I'm really touched. It was all a misunderstanding. I'm so glad to have met such good friends like you. You all know my name is Lilian , but I don't even know your names."

Seeing that Lilian showed no intention of accepting Young Master Parish's marriage proposal, the three were delighted and introduced themselves.

Lilian waved goodbye to her three newly acquainted "plastic friends" and then returned to the kitchen.

Although she probably wouldn't be able to see it with her own eyes, she felt that what the demon would encounter next would be very interesting.

As for her, of course she should follow Rebecca and learn as much as possible; it's never a bad thing to acquire more skills to protect yourself. After all, she hadn't instigated anything, so whatever happened to the demon was none of her business.

Rock Johnson was in a good mood after leaving "disappointed".

He was gradually forcing that human woman to go in the direction he wanted. She thought she was a master strategist, but little did she know that she was being manipulated by him all along. The expression on her face when she found out the truth would be quite interesting.

Because he was determined to outlast Lilian , Rock Johnson wasn't in a hurry.

Although Lilian , this human woman, did not transcend his usual view of humanity, she did indeed change his perception of humans somewhat.

Having been away from the human realm for so long, he should probably take a closer look and observe the changes there, lest something unexpected happens after he ends things with this human woman and waste his time.

He dislikes the feeling of being out of control over people or things.

It was lunchtime soon, and since Parish's father, Earl Wilson, liked to eat with his family, Rock Johnson went to the main dining room of the Earl's mansion to dine with him. He possessed some of Parish's memories, so Earl Wilson naturally didn't notice the changes in his son.

It was already 3 p.m. after lunch. Rock Johnson, accompanied by his personal valet Waldo, walked through the small garden he had to pass on his way back.

The tall, blonde Abigail was carefully tending to the flowers in the garden. The Countess loved flowers, and after her death from illness, the Earl of Wilson continued to maintain the variety and quantity of flowers in the garden, visiting from time to time to remember his deceased wife.
