She didn’t reject the idea in her heart. The image of L holding a long sword and ying demons would probably be imprinted on her mind for the rest of her life.


    But L’s sudden request to meet her parents made Stephanie feel a bit uneasy.


    “Too fast?”


    L was stunned for a moment, looking at Stephanie’s blushing face, he suddenly guessed what she was thinking.


    Uh… Did this girl misunderstand something?


    “I just want to visit your home and meet your family,” L exined his purpose.


    Stephanie looked so much like his mother Aliya, with the same surname, that L suspected there might be some connection between them. Perhaps meeting other members of the Wynter family could help him solve his doubts.


    However, after hearing what he said, Stephanie’s face turned even redder as she stuttered and nodded, “Okay… I’ll go back and tell my family.”


    L frowned and waved his hand, “Hey, you misunderstood me. I just want to visit as a guest. Do you understand?”


    “Oh.”


    Stephanie looked at him strangely and nodded without knowing if she understood what L meant or not.


    L smiled wryly.


    After finishing their meal in an unusual atmosphere, Stephanie took the initiative to exchange contact information with L, asking him to inform her in advance when he nned to visit so that she could prepare her family.


    As soon as L separated from Stephanie and got into the car to return to Ednd, he received a call from Miranda.


    “L, when are youing back?”


    In the phone call, the voice of the goddess president was as cold and pleasant as always. It seemed to carry a strong sense of concern and longing, like a young wife eagerly awaiting her husband’s return.


    L had already informed Miranda about rescuing Nora from Wicked Bone’s clutches, so she was not worried about Nora but instead asked when L coulde back.


    Hearing this familiar voice, L’s heart stirred.


    Was this really the Miranda controlled by the evil spirit?


    “I’ming back right away. I should be home by tonight.”


    “Honey, do you miss me? Hehe…”


    L asked with a smile.


    “Go to hell! Who misses you? Humph!”


    Miranda scolded in a coquettish tone upon hearing his words.


    The next moment, her tone changed. “Thene back, I’ll be waiting for you.”


    “Mhm!”


    L agreed.


    After a few more exchanges, they hung up the phone.


    L pondered for a long time, thenmunicated with the Dragon Ancestor’s Soul through his mind. “Dragon Ancestor, are you there?”


    After a moment, the deep voice sounded, “What’s the matter?”


    “Are you… sure that my wife is being controlled by an evil spirit? The current her is not herself?”


    L asked very seriously.


    A phone call from Miranda made him feel restless.


    He was afraid!


    He was afraid that if the Dragon Ancestor’s Soul made a mistake, the real Miranda would be harmed!


    “Do you not believe me?”C0pyright ? 2024 N?v)(elDrama.Org.


    Dragon Ancestor’s Soul asked in an unsatisfied tone.


    “It’s not that. I’m just afraid that you might make a mistake. Just in case… hehe…”


    L mumbled.


    “Hmph! If you’re not sure whether it’s really her, you’ll know when you try. If everything goes as expected, when you go back this time, she will still want to get close to you. The target will be my residual soul.”


    Dragon Ancestor’s Soul snorted coldly.


    “Is that so?”


    L’s expression changed upon hearing this.


    “If you’re afraid that I might make a mistake, then I won’t take the initiative. I’ll wait until the evil spirit makes a move against me, and then I’ll destroy it.”


    Dragon Ancestor’s Soul seemed to care about L’s concerns, or perhaps it was because it resided within L’s body and had no choice but to do so.


    Upon hearing its words, L finally felt relieved.


    “Okay! Thank you, Dragon Ancestor.”


    “Hmph! Ungrateful brat!”


    “Don’t bother me if there’s nothing important!”


    Perhaps due to the matter of the crimson Soul Crystal, the Dragon Ancestor’s Soul seemed to harbor some grievances. After uttering an annoyed remark, it disappeared once again.


    On that evening, a little after 6:30…


    Inside the Emerald Green Estates vi, L returned and took a shower, feeling refreshed. Tonight, his father-inw and mother-inw, along with his brother-inw Mason, had alle over.


    “Goddess President” personally took charge of the kitchen and, with Cara’s assistance, prepared a sumptuous home-cooked feast.


    “L, I heard that you sent Nora to a martial arts sect for training?” Emmanuel, his father-inw, asked with a frown at the dinner table. Both Cara and Mason also looked at L with puzzled expressions.


    “Miranda,” perhaps afraid of worrying her family, didn’t tell Emmanuel and the others about the situation. Instead, she lied and said that L had sent Nora to a martial arts sect for cultivation and training. After all, it involved L’s background and the curse on Nora’s body, among other things.


    L nced deeply at Miranda sitting beside him, and she gave him a fleeting nce, conveying a message with her eyes. L understood and couldn’t help but sigh inwardly. Could this understanding and considerate “Goddess President” really be the true Miranda?


    “Well, Nora has a special constitution that is very suitable for cultivation,” L nodded and said, “No matter what I do, I can’tpare to those profound martial arts sects. Luckily, I have an elder brother who is an elder in one of those sects, so I sent Nora there.”


    “What kind of talk is that? Nora won’t go to school anymore?” Cara red at L,ining and reproaching him. Although she wasn’t Nora’s biological grandmother, her fondness for the little girl was genuine.


    Mason, her uncle, had an even darker expression. “My good nephew, you just sent her away like that… Brother-inw, does Nora, a little girl, really need such intense training? It would have been better if you had sent me to the martial arts sect instead of her.”


    L smiled wryly. “Whether she goes to school or not, it’s not that important, actually…”


    “Mom, Dad, Mason, let’s not talk about it anymore. L has his own ns,” Miranda interjected, changing the subject. “Why don’t you taste my cooking? It’s getting cold if you don’t eat it now.”


    Upon hearing L’s response and Miranda’s redirection, Emmanuel and the others didn’t say anything further. However, during this meal, the topic of L and Miranda having another child came up once again.


    “L, now that you’ve sent Nora to the martial arts sect, you don’t need to worry about her anymore,” Emmanuel said, testingly, “You previously said that you wanted to focus all your energy on Nora, and we didn’t say anything. But now, do you and Miranda have the energy to have another child?”


    Under the table, Cara pinched Emmanuel and gave him a meaningful look. Then, the father-inw cleared his throat and cautiously asked L.


    As soon as the words were spoken, L couldn’t help but cough, feeling a vein pulsing on his forehead. Miranda, sitting beside him, had a stunning face and remained silent, her every feature exuding allure.
