Chapter 281: A Love Letter....?
\'Today, I will definitely seduce that man!\' With determination in her thoughts, she arrived, ready to implement her newfound knowledge.
Upon arriving she noticed something wrong, spurred by curiosity after witnessing her classmates\' clandestine activities, and couldn\'t resist the urge to peek.
To her surprise and shock, she caught sight of a \'stranger\' sharing an intimate moment with her target, and to complicate matters, there was also his servant having intimate contact with him.
Reacting impulsively, she let out a shriek as if someone had snatched a cherished possession from her.
Amber Fox, Pearl\'s \'True\' friend, promptly shoved her out of the corridor after the loud scream, creating a clear path for a swift and discreet escape.
Others followed her since it was the best to avoid being labelled as peeping toms.
\'Some sacrifices are necessary\' silently echoed through everyone\'s minds as they made a hasty retreat.
Pearl\'s lips twitched as she observed her friend\'s rather forceful encouragement. Glaring at Eli, who seemed unfazed, she struggled with the emotions of pride, anger, and defeat.
She got furious when she saw Eli and a strange woman like that it wasn\'t she was angry or jealous of others... It was Pride which hurt her a lot.
Pearl was pretty sure she was more beautiful than those two women yet,
\'This jerk!!\' She muttered with a red face as she stood up and asked with embarrassment,
"W-What are you d-doing?"
"Hmm? Well..." Eli glanced at Lilith, who averted her eyes with a nonchalant whistle, and Scylla, who lowered her head, her face ablaze with embarrassment.
"....Group assignment?" Eli offered an excuse, attempting to diffuse the awkward tension.
"...." Pearl stared at him, her expression clearly conveying, \'Don\'t you have any other excuses?\'
"Well then...See yo--" Eli tried to make a discreet exit, recognizing the growing awkwardness.
"Stop!" Pearl commanded, halting him. With a slightly red face, she confronted Lilith directly, "You rejected me, and yet, you\'re flirting with an unknown woman?"
The word \'reject\' triggered an intense reaction from both Lilith and Scylla, who shifted into a vigilant stance, their glares laden with menace.
Oblivious to the brewing tension, Pearl awaited Eli\'s response, convinced it held more significance than any other irrelevant things..... Not out of romantic affection, but driven by a desire to understand the unknown woman (Scylla) and to prove to her Master that Pearl was willing to go to great lengths for her.
"Well, she is my wife" Eli declared casually, brushing off the confrontation with a shrug.
"...Wife?" Pearl\'s expression showed clear surprise as she looked at Lilith, whose face remained veiled, though Pearl sensed a mischievous grin beneath it.
\'Gasp\'
Among the Peeping toms, a collective gasp swept through, expressing the unexpected nature of this revelation. For many, Eli being a married man was entirely unforeseen.
"She looks gorgeous!!"
"Yeah!"
The peeping toms muttered themselves as they forgot those deadly feelings except Luna who sweating a lot.
Anyhow,
In a role as the princess of Atlantis, Pearl swiftly regained control over her emotions. \'So, that\'s why my seduction didn\'t work\' she realized, understanding that if Eli wasn\'t committed then she was sure her yesterday\'s seduction would have passed with flying colours.
\'Since he was married then.....\' Pearl briefly considered redirecting her efforts toward Scylla, thinking that approaching a married man was beneath her royal stature.
However, a single, stoic gaze from Scylla sent shivers down her spine. Those cold, expressionless eyes conveyed a sense of dominance as if Pearl were nothing more than an insignificant ant ready to be crushed.... Pearl couldn\'t comprehend why, but every time she looked at Scylla, she felt as though she stood in the presence of a formidable master.
Comparatively, Eli seemed more approachable to Pearl than the enigmatic Scylla.
Bracing herself, Pearl controlled her thoughts, \'It\'s just a temporary relationship, nothing more. I won\'t let myself fall for this married man!! All I need is to seduce him, gather information about Scylla, and then we\'ll go our separate ways... That\'s all. I don\'t need a man... well, maybe that phrasing is wrong...
I don\'t need love\' she muttered to herself, reaffirming her determination.
"PEARL!!" Eli\'s shout interrupted her internal dialogue.
Pearl glanced at Lilith, catching a glimpse of her veiled amusement, before shifting her attention back to Eli, who wore a frown, \'I don\'t want to be perceived as a whore stealing someone\'s possession behind their back, so let\'s do this right in front of his wife!!\' she thought with determination.
Taking a deep breath, she retrieved a document from her storage ring and boldly declared,
"PLEASE GO OUT WITH ME!!!"
Her face turned crimson as she proclaimed her intentions loud and clear, creating a stir among the Peeping toms.
It wasn\'t a wrong move since most the man marry many women, however, it was the first time when someone asked out in front of his wife.
"...."
"...."
"...."
The corridor stood frozen in time, with Lilith, Scylla, and the peeping toms locked in place like a frozen statue.
However,
"....heheh A Love letter?" Eli chuckled at the surreal scene. He actually kind of liked this woman who was doing her best without minding others.
If Pearl had been serious, he would have already seen the \'Dark Transformation\' Yet, he sensed her intentions were different.
\'She\'s aiming for something else\' Eli mused to himself, calming his wives who were on the verge of severing Pearl\'s head as their hands hovered dangerously close to her neck.
The air crackled with tension as Lilith\'s hand was armed with a black, sharp knife, while Scylla\'s hand bore a similarly lethal weapon made of an ice knife. Both were just millimetres away from Pearl\'s vulnerable neck.
If not for Eli\'s intervention, Pearl\'s neck would have faced an abrupt end.
"!!!!" Pearl\'s eyes widened in sheer shock because she didn\'t even see that coming until Eli stopped.
Beads of sweat formed on her forehead. She cast terrified glances at Scylla with shock and disbelief and the same goes for Lilith..... Pearl had glimpsed monstrous entities.
"Ouch"
"!!"
Eli lightly tapped their heads, yet they winced as if struck by a powerful blow. Shooting Eli\'s hate-filled glares, while both ladies glanced at each other with acknowledged eyes as if they were proud of each other\'s intentions.
Eli shook his head, maintaining a level of calm, and picked up the document Pearl had been holding. She flinched at his sudden movement, her gaze nervously darting between the formidable women. It was clear to her that she was nowhere near their league.
Unfazed, Pearl redirected her focus to her current target.... Eli, a small grin etched on her face.
"Hmm?" Eli furrowed his brow as he examined the small, stamp-sized photo of Pearl along with some details.

"...." Eli grappled with words that seemed to elude him, his mouth opening and closing soundlessly. The unprecedented situation left him temporarily speechless.
Intrigued by Eli\'s unusual reaction, Lilith and Scylla diverted their attention to the document.
Initially dismissing it as a mere love letter, they had refrained from delving into its contents. However, Eli\'s silent struggle prompted them to scrutinize the document with renewed curiosity.
On the other side, Pearl maintained a self-assured smile, convinced that she had already secured a victory, \'It seems like he was struck by my heartfelt words....heheheh... After he accepts me, All I should do was flirt with him then gather the details and.... goodbye\' she thought....
Her mind revelled in fantasies of receiving praise and endearing head pats from her perceived "Master" after he accepted her proposal.
"Pffft--"
"---"
A peculiar sound interrupted the corridor\'s tension, prompting Pearl to redirect her attention to Eli. To her surprise, he now stood alone.
Seeing him alone, her face turned red if his wives were present she might had some reassurance but he alone.... Pearl felt a little difficult to do anything now.
... She somehow had a twisted sense.
